Funtico, a prominent player in the blockchain gaming market, revealed its Web3 gaming platform on January 26, 2024, during the Taipei Game Show 2024. The platform is designed to embrace the latest trend in Web3 technology, offering a decentralized marketplace to empower players with equal control.
Introduction of Heroes of the Citadel and $TICO Token
At the unveiling, Funtico introduced its newest adventure strategy title, “Heroes of the Citadel,” along with the announcement of a crypto token named $TICO. The platform shared its vision for creating a gaming ecosystem where players utilize $TICO as the designated currency. While “Heroes of the Citadel” is currently accessible on Steam, its availability on mobile devices remains uncertain.
Web3 Technology and Player Empowerment
Web3 technology, characterized by the availability of digital currencies for purchase, earning, and trading, is integrated into the platform. Funtico implements a Play-to-Earn (P2E) system, ensuring players possess genuine ownership of in-game assets represented as non-fungible tokens (NFTs). This approach creates a decentralized and transparent gaming environment, allowing players to accumulate cash or digital currencies in their digital wallets through gameplay.
Funtico’s Secure NFT Platform
Funtico aims to establish a secure and streamlined platform for acquiring gaming collectibles in the form of NFTs. This initiative promises players three significant advantages: ownership of in-game assets, seamless transactions, and empowerment for creators.
