To find out even more about this project, check out our deep dive of [Mines of Dalarnia](https://coinmarketcap.com/alexandria/article/what-is-mines-of-dalarnia-dar-features-tokenomics-and-price-prediction).

Mines of Dalarnia is an action adventure game with procedurally generated levels. Players mine and combine various in-game items, improving their skills and gear in order to unlock the secrets of the MoD universe while searching for rare relics and artifacts.

MoD gameplay is split into two modes: Mining gameplay, a 2D platform-mining game where the player controls a character and guides them through a procedurally-generated level (plot), mining through various blocks of earth, to discover and collect minerals of various rarities. Collected minerals are then used to upgrade the character through mining equipment and character attributes. Collected minerals can be also used to craft a refinery which is required to lease a plot of land in the Real Estate gameplay, a management style interface where players buy and lease levels/plots for others to mine within.
We are definitely one of the earliest builders in the blockchain game, and the current testnet is public and playable. In the meantime, the current games in blockchain are more emphasizing on the token economics features, where they have the player experience evolve around the “earning” aspect; however, for us as a game studio, we want to balance the fun gamer experience as well as the economics on day 1. For us, the priority is to make a game that is fun to play and then we could add on blockchain as well as token incentives to the game.

We have players mine for 5-6 hours in Mines of Dalarnia and record videos on YouTube, and this is before any incentive program is published with regards to testnet.
