I'm a cryptogamer now apparently. Most of the games coming out are pretty simple but some are pretty good. CryptoRome, CryptoDungeons, and CryptoBarons are the ones I'm getting into now.

CryptoRome only has minigames and the landsale going on right now, but it's already a fun one. I've already made almost an ETH playing it (got a city at the start of the landsale, so price went up. Also made some money off the early wineries and grape market, though I'm hodling my grapes for after launch of the battle system to see how much wine will improve my troops. Either it will be a big gain from having a stockpile, or I'll unload once the price goes up.)

CryptoBarons though is the game I'm looking forward to the most, as it's been fucking years since I've played an RTS, and with the MMO style and the rpg features, it should take off pretty heavy. I strongly suggest subscribing to them now on their website cryptobarons.io as they're airdropping 2.5million tokens EVENLY between the people who've subscribed to the mailing list. The ICO price of the token is going to be 10cens USD.

CryptoDungeons though is what I'm waiting for to cure my nostalgia though... Fucking oldschool 2dsprites with real tactical combat, but not enough people have heard about it.

Anon, that's not fucking true. We care about crypto AND other things... so we merge them together. Shit, how many of us got into /biz/ because of /vg/? Many of my favorite games had economies more complex than the cryptomarket, and now they're being merged. The price of fucking digital GRAPES in CryptoRome, is eventually going to influence the price of ETH! Shit, I don't even know what will happen when CryptoBarons hits their ICO goal and we wind up with another million people in crypto. Realize that only 0.4% of the population has the slightest cue about crypto, so what happens when we start getting millions of newbs from cryptogames?

[Anonymous No.9723247]

>>9723201
but it is true.

[Anonymous No.9723291]

I'd reccomend these new cryptogames, as theyre rather primitive now, but after ypu get started you can get an income from playing them. CryptoBarons is freetoplay and hands out it's ERC20 shitcoin, BRN that is used to buy resources and pay for building upgrades and land via airdrop.
CryptoRome is paytostart in buying land first, but after the initial sale there will be wars over neutral territory and the best warriors will get a cut of all income generated for a day.
Imagine if in playing WoW you got paid for grinding in real money.... Thats what these are going for.

You don't actually have to pay anything to start playing CryptoRomes, as you get a free plot and some free grape vines, so you can at least get started in the game without paying anything. Just don't expect to become a senator or Caesar (leading players who get a percentage of the transaction fees.) without having a few cities and maybe a wonder card. Still, now is already halfway through the landsale, and no more will be issued after that point, which will make the costs of entry to the higher levels a bit more difficult. (Everyone's going to jack the prices of any cities and towns for sale after launch, rofl.)

You need to install Metamask and go onto their website, then click Get Land. The "Plot" is the free piece of land, it will be in the bottom right. If you have trouble, their discord channel is always active. They were giving away land and even some actual eth, as prizes for people making memes.
