Mythical Games, the publisher of Blankos Block Party, is also working on two play-to-earn games. Today, we’re getting an overview of what Blankos is all about and see whether you should begin playing it before its big launch on Epic Games.
What is Blankos Block Party?
Blankos Block Party is a creation game in a multiplayer universe. Interestingly, like many other metaverse games, this “universe” is something you own and build.
Each “Blanko,” i.e., the universe’s character, is a non-fungible token (NFT). That means you get to own it for real. A Blanko also holds a certain value, so you can resell it in the Blankos marketplace.
By the way, a Blanko is a “digital vinyl toy.” It’s characteristically fun and mischievous.
The “block party” part in this Blankos game is what the “creation” rationale is all about. Basically, you get to design and build all sorts of party games!
And no—you don’t need to be a genius developer to “design” these party games. All you need is a bit of creativity. No coding skills are required.
Can you play Blankos Block Party now?
Yes! And that’s the quick answer. Blankos has an early access version that is now playable for PCs and macOS devices.
If you count yourself a creative and fun person, you might enjoy even the soft launch (i.e., “Early Access” release) of this game. Right now, you can explore Blankos Block Party for free.
Is Blankos Block Party free to play?
Well yes, according to their website, Blankos is a free-to-play NFT game. But, you got the option to purchase in-game cosmetics—you know, things that make the gameplay, especially your own block parties, more interesting.
There are also limited edition Blankos, i.e., those NFTs that might go astoundingly high up in value later on.
That means you got the potential to earn from Blanko NFTs that you buy and sell. So, it’s not really the typical “play to earn” model, but more like “play and earn.”
What makes Blankos Block Party stand out from other NFT games?
Blankos hasn’t forgotten about the “fun” that’s supposed to be in the very nature of video games. I know some hardcore mainstream gamers hate NFT games because they’re a little bit dull and boring, but that’s not really true about Blankos.
This open-world multiplayer experience allows you to explore games that other users have designed. It’s all about world-building and exploration.
In other words, it can be suitable for you if you can play extroverted behind a screen and get creative with colors and shapes as much as you want.
By the way, it’s also available on macOS, not just Windows 10.
What is Epic Games?
The Epic Games store is home to a ton of video games, including those you can play on PC or Mac. By the end of 2021, it has already amassed over 194 million users. Interestingly, it’s hyped up about welcoming Blankos Block Party into its space very soon.
While Blankos is yet to launch inside Epic Games, you can actually start playing it right now and party up! In your own block parties, you get to decide whether it’s about shooters or racers, or basically whatever else you can think about.
In short, it’s all about having freedom. And, isn’t that epic?
