We love to dream, and we know that you love tabletop games. For this reason, our goal for early 2025 is to release Conkis in its tabletop version to enjoy playing with friends at home.

What are the cards for?

The cards enhance our gaming experience by providing versatility and adding excitement to the games. There are various types of cards, including attack, defense, mobility, shields, heals, and even magic. These options enable you to develop your game strategy and strive for victory.

How many cards are you going to develop?

As many as possible. The cards are designed to enhance the gameplay of Conkis and keep players from getting bored.

What is the power of a card?

Each card has a power that represents its effectiveness or value. In every game, players have a power limit to spend, typically set at 100. However, they can get additional power by capturing flags.

How is the power of each card defined?

The power of the cards is defined by our team of developers, but since our priority is to balance the game, the community feedback will be taken into account to calculate the right power for each card.

What are the rarities?

The same card can be represented with a different rarity. The rarity defines the percentage of power to reduce of that card. For now, we only have five types of rarity.
Common, Uncommon, Rare, Epic and Legendary.

How is the rarity reduction being calculated?

We utilize a formula that applies a higher reduction to low-power cards compared to high-power cards. For instance, a Legendary card with a power of 5 will experience an approximately 80% reduction, whereas a Legendary card with 99 power will have an approximate reduction of 50%. The formula is designed as follows:

((100 - power) / 3 + 50) * rarity * ratio

The rarity value would be defined like this:

Common = 0
Uncommon = 0.25
Rare = 0.5
Epic = 0.75
Legendary = 1

We also have the variable ratio, which will be used to adjust the reduction depending on the card. By default it is always 1.

How can I get new cards?

The most common method is to buy them in the shop. You can also earn them as rewards by winning trophies. Lastly, you have the option to purchase cards from third-party NFT markets and then import them to Conkis from your wallet.

I have no idea about blockchains, can I play anyway?

Yes, the use of wallets, NFTs or tokens is entirely optional. Only users who want to, can enjoy the advantages of selling or buying their cards and tokens in third-party markets. Players do not have to know that we are using blockchain technologies behind the scenes.

What is an NFT, and how are they implemented in Conkis?

An NFT is a digital asset that represents real-world objects like art, music, in-game items, and videos. NFTs are generally one of a kind, or at least one of a very limited run, and have unique identifying codes.

In the case of Conkis, the cards are NFTs that players own. They will be able to trade them for money or other cards.

Tokens and Assets

In Conkis, there are two assets: Tulips and Coins.

Tulips are an internal asset of Conkis and do not have representation on the blockchain. They are used to purchase cards and can be acquired by buying them with Coins or as rewards.

Coins, on the other hand, Coins is a blockchain token. They are used to buy Cards or Tulips and can be acquired with cryptocurrency, real money, or as rewards.

Tokenomics

The concept behind Tulips and Coins is to function as stablecoins rather than assets with volatile values.

When a user purchases either of the two assets in the store, the conversion to dollars will almost always remain the same.

1000 Tulips = $1 dollar.
100 Coins = $1 dollar.

This approach shields the user from the drastic fluctuations that tokens often experience in open markets.

Conkis assets are not designed for speculation; instead, they are crafted as assets that maintain a stable value and can be sold for approximately the same price.

This aligns with the philosophy of most traditional games that are not Web3. Our goal is to adhere to the same principles as mainstream games. The key distinction in Conkis is that users are genuine owners of their assets and have the freedom to sell at any time. A feature not typically allowed in traditional games.
