And for Yuga's next trick...
Yuga Labs - the team behind Bored Ape Yacht Club, The Otherside metaverse, and Apecoin - just announced their next trick.
(And it looks awesome!)
What we know so far is that on 17th Jan, holders of Bored Ape and Mutant Ape NFTs will be able to mint a 'Sewer Pass' NFT.
Once minted, they can sell it on the secondary market, or keep it to access a new game called Dookey Dash.
The goal of the game is to receive a score higher than 0 which will validate their Sewer Passes and "transform them into a mysterious power source."
Here's what's smart about this launch:
The game will only be available between 17 Jan and 15 Feb.
Yuga Labs are great at building hype, and this is no exception. Limited players, limited time, limited detail about what happens next - smart.
Generative NFTs - NFTs that can change over time - are one of the least utilized, but coolest, functions of NFTs.
Incorporate them into a game that is fun and competitive, and you may just have yourself a recipe for success.
These NFTs can continue to evolve and Yuga has already said that they will be used in future "battles."
Our spidey senses tell us there're more games from Yuga in the works...
...the only catch is, you need a Bored Ape NFT to be able to play the game.
(And they're currently going for a cool $110K).
