FIGHT. FARM. REAP THE REWARDS.

Journey into the captivating world of “Legends of the Mara” (LOTM), where the allure of card games effortlessly combines with the engagement of idle tapping. In the open beta phase of LOTM, you and your Otherdeed inhabitants are pitted against the menacing Shattered, formidable adversaries birthed from fragmented Vessels.

This experience goes beyond just battling; it encompasses the lifecycle of your Otherdeed realm. From hatching Vessels and evolving your Mara to the indispensable task of harvesting and trading Sediment Fragments, the game challenges your strategic prowess.

What is Legends of the MARA (LOTM)?

Dive deep into LOTM, a fusion of card game collectability with the relaxed vibes of an idle tap game. In the open beta, your Otherside and partner NFTs stand tall against roaming hostiles. This beta phase is just the beginning, offering a glimpse into the vast expanse of Otherside and introducing players to the Oda—the original denizens comprising the mighty Koda, the versatile Mara, and the evolved Kodamara.

The game offers a plethora of activities. Hatch your Mara from Vessels, engage in the vital act of harvesting and trading Sediment Fragments, and uphold the sanctity of your land against the relentless Shattered. Every victory is a step forward, earning you valuable loot chests. These chests are a treasure trove—some offer components for spaceship crafting, while others contain coveted NFTs from partnered collections, equipping you for the challenges that lie ahead.

Getting Started with Otherdeed Expanded

Understanding Otherdeed: Slots & Tiers

Every in-game Otherdeed, often referred to as an Otherdeed Expanded NFT, functions akin to a game card. These cards come with slots, and to harness their potential, you’ll need to strategically position your Oda within these slots. The efficacy of your Otherdeed hinges upon these placements. The environmental tier guides the number of Hunters and Farmers (whether Mara, Kodamara, or Koda) you can delegate, while the sediment tier gauges the sediment yield of your realm, with upper echelons promising richer outputs.

Key Objectives in LOTM

FEND OFF THREATS: Your Otherdeed realm’s survival rests on its defense. A combination of Mara, Kodamara, Koda, and future allies can tilt the scales in your favor against the Shattered. Every victory accrues valuable loot, equipping you for subsequent challenges.

HARVEST FRAGMENTS: Your Otherdeed continually produces Sediment Fragments. These fragments, with their trading potential and pivotal role in the evolution process of Mara, are invaluable. Legends speak of hidden powers within these fragments, suggesting their importance in future gameplay dynamics.

(SPACE)CRAFT: Emerging victorious against the Shattered isn’t just about defense; it’s also about the spoils of war. Loot acquired can be invaluable in crafting components for a potential spacecraft. And while the existence of extraterrestrial beings remains unconfirmed, one can never be too prepared.

MYST: Myst is LOTM’s distinctive in-game currency, meticulously crafted to provide players with a discernible edge in their endeavors. Harnessing the power of Myst allows you to rejuvenate abilities swiftly, summon the Shattered at an accelerated pace, and expedite the hatching process of your Vessels, ensuring you’re never caught off guard.

Meet the Oda

Understanding the Oda is pivotal for mastering LOTM. Here’s a breakdown:

KODA: Only 10,000 of these powerful beings exist. Some Otherdeeds may come with a Koda, but players can also purchase one separately to assign for hunting, farming, or enchanting.

HUNTER MARA: Formidable in their own right, when synergized, they morph into forces of destruction against the Shattered.

FARMER MARA: Their pacifism doesn’t undermine their significance. They are the lifeline for harvesting the invaluable Sediment Fragments.

ENCHANTER MARA: Stationed at their camps, their presence radiates, amplifying the skills of all surrounding Oda.

KODAMARA: When a Mara ingests a Catalyst (and some optional Sediment Fragments), it evolves into a Kodamara that takes on the physical traits of its Catalyst — and performs any of the three functions. Though Kodamara are most effective at their original function, the evolution allows them to deal direct damage to Shattered and grant buffs to their team.
