Problem
In post-apocalyptic online multiplayer games, players often face challenges in establishing persistent character development, securing resources, and engaging in meaningful player-driven economies. The lack of true ownership and tradability of in-game assets limits player investment and long-term engagement.
Solution
Decimated is a third-person survival RPG set in a dystopian cyberpunk world, built on Unreal Engine 5, where players can choose to be human citizens, cyborg cops, or wasteland marauders, each with unique skills and missions. Players compete or cooperate to scavenge resources, transport cargo, capture territory, and build safehouses. The game utilizes blockchain technology to enable players to earn cryptocurrency (DIO) through in-game activities, trade virtual items on a secure marketplace, and truly own their digital assets. This creates a player-driven economy where digital scarcity and verifiable ownership enhance engagement and provide monetization opportunities.
Target Audience
The primary target audience includes fans of survival RPGs, blockchain gaming enthusiasts, and players interested in persistent online worlds with player-driven economies and true digital ownership.
