Open Gameplay

The game is very simple as it is a pet card game. Players can obtain random pet cards by purchasing their own NFTs (Pikasters) in the trading market. The cards have six attributes, namely grass type, poisonous insect type, Water, electricity, fire, and fighting. Players can predict the combat performance of cards by just looking at the restraint relationship between different attributes. 

By evolving and breeding the cards, players can obtain upgraded pet card characters and then use appropriate card battle strategies or flexible pledge systems to get multi-token benefits. The digital assets can be sold on the trading platform to convert to actual income when it is up and running.
