Since Bitcoin hit a new low of $15,476 in November 2022, it has climbed back to $23,947, igniting the enthusiasm of investors and Web3 users as the price continues to rise.

In the current stage of market recovery, numerous excellent projects have emerged like mushrooms after rain. Among them, the dark horse project TownStory has received countless attention. This TokenGame, which combines farm management, character development, DAO socialization, NFT system, metaverse background world, farming, dressing up, pets, and order system, has attracted countless attention from gamers even before its launch.

TownStory is a social management game built on Web3, where users can build their own town and interact with players from all over the world in an open world for trading game items and engaging in conversations. The 1.0 version of TownStory will be shaped as a Web3 "Animal Crossing", which will be upgraded continuously to eventually evolve into a metaverse platform focusing on socializing and integrating various infrastructures such as transactions, DeFi, entertainment, and more.

The core development team of TownStory comes from the renowned game company Zynga in Silicon Valley and participated in the development of several globalized operating-game products, successfully creating multiple products with millions of DAUs and monthly revenues exceeding tens of millions of dollars.

TownStory has a cleverly designed game story background. The story tells of the year 3000, where economic development on Earth has stalled due to environmental and monopoly problems, and the world is on the brink of collapse. At the same time, humans discovered many earth-like planets in the Centauri star system. Just like the Age of Discovery, the old planet resources have been depleted, and the new hope for humanity lies in interstellar migration.

After rigorous selection, a lucky group of people were awarded interstellar travel passes by the new government of the Centauri star system, becoming the first group of interstellar immigrants. They carried the hopes of humanity and went to the Centauri star system to start building a new world called "Star Town" and explore new opportunities for the development of human civilization through a new token governance mechanism.

Before entering the Centauri star system, interstellar travelers need to undergo survival training in the open world. Only by accumulating enough resources and passing the examiner's review can they formally begin interstellar travel. In Planet Town, new residents can buy land, build factories and houses, invite friends to play, plant crops, receive and complete orders, obtain governance token rewards, and continue to operate and prosper human civilization.

TownStory has diverse and expandable gameplay. The game is built on Layer2 and integrates "dressing-up + social interaction + simulation" gameplay. The encrypted version of "Animal Crossing + Town + Dark Forest" is believed to capture a large number of "hardcore wood gatherers" players. It is worth noting that farming and nurturing is a major game category, and its number of players even exceed the FPS game category. As the Web3 game representative of this category, TownStory's prospects are immeasurable. In addition, TownStory also uniquely designs a Play2Own structure, allowing players to forge NFTs for free, and they can easily join the game without an entrance. They can play the game to obtain NFT props and other encrypted assets, which greatly reduces the entry threshold and enhances the user's gaming experience.

Of course, farming alone won't do. TownStory is also a strong social game. Users can share NFT with their friends in the game through Twitter. They can also interact with friends in the game, help them water and fertilize, and even steal vegetables to complete orders. The development of the Web2.5-based OAT mechanism makes it easy to invite Web2 friends to join the Web3 game.

NFT+Dual-Token model ensures the reliable operation of the economic system in TownStory.

Town Story Coin ($TSC): governance token, including voting rights/liquidity mining/game dividends. It can be obtained through purchasing, reward for equity NFT, in-game rewards (including daily and game progress, or winning in PVP mode), etc.

Synthetic STORY Coin (sTSC): mainly used for in-game payment, quickly replenish out of stock materials/Boost production acceleration/purchase NFT upgrade props/purchase NFT or equity Pass to replace TSC to perform the function of game currency, similar to coupons, not supported for circulation trading on TownStory DEX.

Stardust Coin ($Dust): used for building new plots/buying NFT upgrade props/creating props and gifts/purchasing costumes and decorations, etc.Accumulated by completing in-game activities such as tasks and orders, $Dust can be traded through DAO's balance pool.

Players can obtain different token rewards by completing character and mutual friends' orders, exchanging through the community or liquidity pool, special mission rewards in the game, social sharing in the game, sharing dynamic on Twitter/Discord/FB, completing tasks on the Web3 OAT platform, etc.

Exciting news! On January 10, 2023, TownStory announced that it has launched in the top L2 public chain, Arbitrum, to be the first to deploy the game on Arbitrum in order to serve the users and enrich the gaming ecosystem of Arbitrum. As a dark horse L2 public chain, Arbitrum has a huge number of users on its network. Through this integration, TownStory will bring a unique Web3 social experience and gaming fun to users through the low-cost and instant confirmation features of Arbitrum Nova. In addition, the two parties will conduct extensive cooperation in business and game-developers’ ecosystem. This integration also lays the foundation for TownStory's huge market and broad development prospects in the future.

According to official information, in late February 2023, TownStory will release the OpenWorld Preview version. Unlike the farming management in the official version, TownStory OpenWorld is an unrestricted open world where you can socialize, collect materials, develop characters, play mini-games, complete tasks, and build your own territory with your ideas.

In addition to the TownStory OpenWorld Preview version, the official version of the game will also be launched in the near future. At that time, the TownStory Preview version will be merged with the game itself, bringing players an extraordinary metaverse gaming experience and completely subverting the current lack of gameplay experience in Web3 games. The first AI+NPC mode and more interesting gameplay in the style of "Animal Crossing" will be revealed soon. Joining Discord now will give you a chance to get WhiteList and experience the game in advance.

Let's look forward to TownStory's potential in the Web3 world and become a TokenGame that attracts everyone's attention. Join the TownStory universe and explore your own small town in the vast universe together.
