What Is Mirandus? Here’s How to Make Over $50 Every Day!

Short answer? Well, Mirandus is a fantasy role-playing game (RPG game) created by Gala games and hosted on the Gala blockchain. This multiplayer game is free-to-play for players who do not own in-game real estate. And so, it allows players to take on adventures without owning an outpost or homestead. 

By the way, owning real estate unlocks the economic side of the game.

The vision of Mirandus is to create a game unlike any other: an epic fantasy RPG set in a massive world ruled by five player-monarchs. These monarchs call the shots in their world and can allow other players to join their realm in order to join forces to complete unique adventures.

What’s the Big Idea Behind Mirandus?

As a game, Mirandus gives players absolute freedom of choice. I think that’s the most alluring thing about this game. In some ways you could say it somewhat resembles Guild of Guardians but these games are actually very different.

The game is similar to SANDBOX games where there are no maps or quest givers. So, players can choose to go out into the wilderness alone where they will fight off monsters of the deep woods and dungeons. They can also serve as a knight in any monarch’s court or set up shop in any of the five great citadels of the realm.

When you step into the world of Mirandus for the first time, you take on the role of avatars. Being an avatar is completely free but as you might tell, your powers and abilities will be limited.

If you want to take things to the next level, though, you can buy an exemplar avatar. Exemplar avatars come with powers and abilities beyond those of others in Mirandus. So, that’s an upgrade you might want to consider if you’re thinking of going hardcore with Mirandus.

That said, one other thing you should know about is “deeds.” Players have the opportunity to hold land deeds that allow them to claim parts of the wilderness and set up holdfasts according to their desires. These holdfasts range from small farms to massive cities, anything you can imagine, really.

Exploring Mirandus comes with a lot of risks. But there’s also a lot of rewards, mostly in the form of Materium. Materium is an arcane substance that is abundant in the world of Mirandus.

It is concentrated magic that allows players to channel its power to cast spells, craft the impossible, and even raise a slain hero from the dead!

What’s the Story in Mirandus?

The story behind Mirandus is in three parts. And the player in Mirandus is expected to partake in any story of his choice.

The First Part

The first story starts with a weary and worn-out traveler wandering into a crowded tavern at dusk.  The haggard-looking traveler whose gender cannot be distinguished from their looks wanders to a corner of the tavern. 

You, the player, approach the traveler who shows you a sign with a three-word question “Seek ye magic?” And as curiosity gets the better of you, you find out you need to learn more. This takes you to the second part of the story.

The Second Part

You move to the second part of the story, where you are now aboard an old ship with other travelers. The traveler from the tavern is also there, only now, you all refer to them as the guide. 

Everyone aboard the ship is scared and confused because the voyage is quite the tempestuous and turbulent one. The guide, though, is unperturbed on this trip to Mirandus because they’ve been on this journey before. 

Naturally, the guide sights Mirandus first and shouts “Land ho!”. And in a few hours, you and the other travelers are standing on the beach at a place called Narrow’s Landing. You then gradually begin to make your way to a towering rock ridge which your guide calls the Citadel of the Sun. 

Finally, you get to see your co-travelers, adventurers from all walks of life including halflings, dwarves, humans, and orcs. There are also craftsmen, merchants, mages, and more. The guide leads your ragtag band towards the forest. And just before the edge of the forest, he stops and turns. “It won’t be long now. Prepare your eyes for the greatest wonders they yet have seen, and prepare your weapons for dangers uncertain.”

The Third Part

You’re now in the forest along with a few other adventurers that persisted. Many turned back but you all chose to forge ahead. The journey has been quite perilous so far, with two lives lost to the wolves. 

But the band of adventurers get a taste of magic when the guide introduces you all to Materium, a glowing magical stone. “This stone is infused with Materium, which holds many powers, but they may only be claimed by a worthy hand,” says the guide. They then use the stone as a beacon, leading the way through the dark and treacherous forest.  

As you go on, the guide promises to show you Materium’s power. “Tonight I will show you its greatest power, we have nearly arrived.” 

The guide leads the group to a graveyard and takes you to a dead elf lying on an altar. He performs magic with the stone and the dead elf resurrects, but he vanishes in the process. He has shown the player the power of Materium and the adventure into Mirandus begins.

You’re probably spellbound now, right? Well, that’s the story of Mirandus. Let’s now check out the various assets available in this game.

In-Game Assets in Mirandus

Exemplars

Exemplars are elite avatars with special abilities, which allow them to perform certain actions better than others. These exemplars are sold as NFTs and at the time of writing 87% have been sold already. 

There are five exemplars available to the player: the elf, halfling, orc, dwarf, and human. But the elf and halfling avatars are currently sold out. 

Deeds 

In the world of Mirandus, property is power—and deeds are the means by which players can build a place of safety and commerce. Players can purchase deeds for different property types, and each deed is a template that can be “stamped” on the terrain of Mirandus to make it your own. 

A player can hold the deed to several types of properties available in the game.  

Ownership of property in Mirandus confers power. When you own a deed, you decide who can build there and what share of the profits you get from goods and services made on your land. 

Deeds are also a means of safety and protection for the player as players are only safe within the walls of their own property in Mirandus. 

Naturally, better deeds mean better walls, which will keep higher-level monsters out. So for instance, someone with a citadel deed would be better protected than someone with just a farm hamlet deed.

A Farm Hamlet deed might only come with a rustic wood fence, but a Citadel deed comes with walls that will repel monsters of very high levels.

Buildings

Mirandus has many custom buildings available to players, from archery to shops, stands, and stables. 

Players can erect buildings on another player’s land. However, players must own a building that corresponds to the size of the plot and can only build freely once they’ve paid their lease to the owner who sets the terms. 

Players who farm and craft are the drivers of the Mirandus economy. And then there are shop owners who buy these items as NFTs, thereby owning these items on the blockchain.  Shop owners also have the chance to upgrade the items in their store to access higher profits. 

Ships

This is one of the newly added in-game assets. Players discover the wonders of Mirandus by sailing the surrounding seas as adventurers. 

There are various categories of ships available to the player. And each new level is swifter, larger, and can carry more crew and cargo.

Docks

Docks provide a convenient place to anchor ships after their voyages, whether it’s your ship or that of your friends. 

A simple Dock can only accommodate a few small ships like the Picard, Crayer, and the Hoy. Larger docks can accommodate both small ships and larger vessels like the Cog, Carrack, and Caravel.

Materium

Materium is an important magical element of Mirandus that players earn by playing Mirandus. It can be taken out of the game as an ERC-20 token, and can be traded on secondary markets for money.

Materium can exist in many forms. In its solid state, it exists as an infused ore. In its liquid state, it exists as a potion with untold powers. Materium can also exist in a gaseous state, flowing in the air itself through the skies of Mirandus. 

That said, Materium has several in-game uses. It can be used to heal wounds and restore vitality. It also has the life-giving ability to raise the dead. Those who wield enough of it have the possibility of immortality. 

As if these feats are not extraordinary enough, Materium also confers the player with the ability to perform impossible feats and cast powerful spells. Wielders can cast spells that produce healing, wards of protection, and can rain down fire on foes. 

But it gets even more interesting as Materium can serve as a substitute for various ingredients in crafting recipes. It can also be used to infuse magic into common items to create very powerful weapons, armor, and other wondrous items. 

Players can even use Materium to teleport objects or even themselves!

Making Money on Mirandus

Well, Mirandus is free-to-play, which means that anyone can play without necessarily owning any in-game asset. Players also don’t need to own an outpost or a homestead to go on their adventures. However, as I mentioned, owning real estate adds a whole new economic layer.

In-game assets like exemplars and the likes exist as NFTs. Therefore, a player looking to play the game and earn in-game assets needs an Ethereum-based wallet such as Trustwallet or Metamask to store in-game purchases and earnings.

Wrapping Up

Mirandus is available online in the PC version only for now, and it would appear that there are no plans for a mobile version just yet. But then again, developers have stated that you won’t need a super sophisticated computer to play Mirandus. So, running this game on your computer should be pretty straightforward.

Yeah, one more thing before we call it a day. So, there’s such a thing as Mirandus Mondays.
