Zynga Ventures into Blockchain Gaming with Sugartown: A Web3 Experience.
Zynga, a famous publisher behind popular casual and mobile games like FarmVille and Words With Friends, debuts Sugartown, an Ethereum-based NFT game. The game will offer players an innovative and immersive experience set to redefine the realm of digital entertainment.
Sugartown: Where Dimensions Collide and Adventure Awaits
Sugartown introduces a captivating narrative. In this game, three farm animals unleash a wormhole from an alternate dimension, allowing fascinating creatures known as Oras to traverse and transform Sugartown into a thrilling, gamified universe.
The official release date is yet to be announced. Nonetheless, the game will be accessible exclusively through web browsers, offering ease of access to players. But there’s a catch! Users should own Ora NFTs.
What are Ora NFTs in Sugartown?
In addition to Sugartown, Ora NFTs are set to release later this year. Players will require these unique tokens to gain entry into the game itself. The Etherumre-based NFTs offer not only access but also the opportunity to engage in free-to-play minigames within the expansive universe.
Additionally, players can “stake” or lock up their Ora NFTs to accumulate Sugar, an in-game currency that enhances the gameplay.
Zynga’s Vice President of Web3 Gaming, Matt Wolf, expressed the company’s vision for Sugartown. “Our ambition is to empower players through a sustainable Web3 platform full of fun and enduring games,” stated Wolf.
According to the statement, Sugartown is designed to resonate with the native Web3 audience while aspiring to broaden its appeal over time. The game seeks to establish a passionate and engaged community of Ora NFT holders, fostering an immersive and enjoyable experience for all participants.
