Frumps | OIG: Wow, extremely impressive and it's obvious your team’s talents and experience encompass all the things you need to drive this project to the top!
Let's move on to the game.
How will the game function? What will the gameplay look like, what different modes do you have?
Ji sheng: Playermon will initially provide a Tamagotchi-like experience where a player can feed, play and bathe his/her Playermons. Further, it will be expanded to use a turn-based card gameplay system. All players need to form a team with 3 Playermons. Strategically, the placement of Playermons can provide an advantage over the opponent. The winner will gain token rewards (SGEM) and the Playermons will gain experiences when playing on the Story mode.
In the long term, Playermon Team aims to provide a space for the players to express their creativity.
Players can sell and mint their own design game asset in our marketplace.
- Each unique design of the game asset will be able to use on the owner’s own planet as a decorative asset.
- Players can design, own, and monetize their game assets.
- Each planet becomes a community-built mini-game platform.
Playermon aims to provide an enjoyable, addictive and sustainable game economy that focuses on proven tokenomics, burning and game mechanisms based on the founders’ and team’s passion for gaming industry and NFT games.
Frumps | OIG: This sounds incredible, I love the idea that each planet will become a community built mini-game platform. There are endless possibilities with this!
You have already spoken a little about the play to earn elements, but can you outline to our community the different ways that players can earn in your games?
Ji sheng: First they can earn by breeding the playermon that looks like this
By breeding, they will combine 2 NFT together. Say Wick and Cosmos
And they will create a new NFT that they can sell in the marketplace
If they are able to come out with a Rare breed or 1 with good stats. They are able to sell for a higher price
Besides, they can engage in a PvP that looks like this where the winner walk away with SGEM
They could also build their own community and engage with the community by doing unique 3D NFT collectible that others could buy and put on their planet as decoration material
In summary, the way to earn is to stay within the Playermon Metaverse and really engage
NFT: Playermon is basically giving the opportunity to spend your day playing your favorite game and being paid for it
Frumps | OIG: This is incredible, so many unique ways to earn, and as @NFTJTN said, all while playing this amazing game, the visuals look great. I am seriously excited after this answer!
Ji sheng: You could also earn SGEM by playing, bathing and patting your Playermon in the Spaceden game play
Frumps | OIG: It really is Tamagotchi inspired, this is a very nice feature!
You just spoke about one of your tokens SGEM. We see that your project implements a dual token mechanism for the game, what are the two tokens and what are their utilities? When and where can we get them? Why would holding them be a good investment?
Ji sheng: We have 2 tokens namely PYM and SGEM.
You could get PYM by participating in our upcoming PreIDO Sale on 3rd Nov / our partner launchpad which is coming on the 3rd week of November.
For SGEM, you could get them by playing the game, keep yourself engaged in the metaverse and you will find yourself earning them.
NFT: PYM
Governance: Token holders will be able to shape and vote for the direction of the game universe.
In-Game Payment Method: Players can purchase eggs or Playermons in the marketplace players can upgrade and breed their Playermons Players can purchase items to craft new items and to build and upgrade their space colonial base. Token holders can join the open-world planet to explore dungeonsToken holders can expand their space colonial base with community-built decorative game assets for future planet expansion. Creators can mint their originally-designed game assets in the marketplace in future expansion. Creators can list their originally-designed game assets in the marketplace.
Ji sheng: Utilities of SGEM
SGEM can be used to purchase in-game services and items.
SGEM will be used for upgrading and breeding Playermons.
SGEM will be used for crafting and upgrading items.
SGEM can be used in purchasing non-NFT in-game assets.
You could get SGEM via reward in completing questsReward in completing missionsReward in defeating opponents
Since SGEM has an elastic number of supply, a burning mechanism on every in-game activities and transactions will be applied to prevent its surplus in the game.
Frumps | OIG: This is very well thought out,, they both have many amazing utilities that you have just outlined and this just makes us want them even more. Our community should take note of those dates you mentioned, they do not want to miss out on PYM

At this point I would love to switch it over to the community questions posted on Twitter.
Community Twitter Questions:
Twitter question 1)
Ji sheng: We will be partnering up with different games studio to launch the mini games on the Playermon Metaverse Planet. The players will be able to visit the different planet available and earn by engaging with the different planets on board.
Partners would also promote their own creation with their IP to promote their brand in our playermon metaverse
Imagine every planet as a different community where we could interact with each other in the metaverse
Frumps | OIG: This sounds incredible
NFT: Brands can partner with us and will be able to monetise and leverage in our Metaverse
Frumps | OIG: There is unlimited potential with this concept, very clever
Twitter Question 2)
NFT: In traditional gaming you dont own the in game asset or the community but with blockchain games such as Playermon you can own and grow your community and create you own ingame asset
Ji sheng: We welcome different gaming talents join us to develop more variance of game play. Moreover, we are open to DeFi element in our Planet. So we are open to partner with DeFi protocols and create universal basic income for the Playermon Gamer.
NFT: We will continue to share adoption of our project through our below social media channel

Ji sheng: Current traditional game studio are hesitant to join the blockchain GameFi space. So, Playermon will be position as a social platform to provide traditional game studio a way to bridge their existing games to the Playermon Metaverse. The plan is to give them the SDK required and tools and knowledge to bridge their game over
Frumps | OIG: There is something for everyone in your game! Universal Basic Income for the Playermon Gamer sounds incredible. You becoming a bridge for traditional game studios is a very excellent ideas and puts playermon in a great position
Really amazing answers guys!
Twitter Question 3)
Ji sheng: Our game is made for Windows, Mac, Android and iOS
But it will have some challenge to be listed on the Apple App Store. The others should not be a major issue
NFT: Traditional Game have been establish the whole system since last 30 years. Play to Earn Game is just started since no long time ago, it gain exponential growth in term of transaction and total active user. It take 10 years plus for cryptocurrency like bitcoin to become mainstream, but we foresee that gamefi will gain momentum faster then cryptocurrency 1.0. In fact , gamefi bring the whole new community to become a crypto user. This is what we want to see. The fundamental of gaming lets back to basic, we create good game and fun game to play. And we reward them and empower user to have gain better financial reward. The will create a flying wheel to the game growth.
Ji sheng: In fact, our cofounder have release many titles with some title hitting 15 millions user base on mobile App Store
So bridging over traditional game to blockchain game is something that we can and will do
Frumps | OIG: Great to hear playermon will be on all platforms. GameFi has exploded and based on your answers today and the experience of your team and cofounder, i can see playermon being a massive force in this expanding industry
