The open beta for the play-and-earn strategy game ScarQuest has officially begun. ScarQuest, which is free to play on PC via Steam and available on mobile devices via the Play Store and App Store, entices users to explore its captivating universe.
To save progress between platforms, players have the option to link their X profile or begin with a guest account. Gamers can construct their own bases and raid other people’s during the open beta. Use deployable troops, maneuver around obstacles, and try to destroy the last structure before the clock runs out. Since different units require different amounts of energy to deploy, energy management is essential. Raid success increases excitement by granting in-game incentives.
Building a strong home base is essential. Players can use various fortifications and units across three combat tiles, each altering the terrain. Automated defense setup and the option to test layouts ensure robust protection. During an active raid on your base, you can join the defense and deploy skills to thwart attackers.
ScarQuest offers numerous tasks and missions, rewarding players with supply boxes containing new cards and $VEL tokens. These tokens are vital for listing NFTs, purchasing items, and unlocking buildings. Although asset import/export isn’t available yet, it’s expected soon, enabling trades on the official NFT marketplace using $SCAR tokens and $VEL currency.
The developers have shared a two-part roadmap for the beta phase. Initially, they focus on optimizing the user experience, server load, and in-app purchase functionality. Planned features include Hero Skill Reforging, land import/export, and limited-time arenas. Skill Reforging will allow resource use to create tradable heroes, while land import lets landholders earn resources from player mining. Limited-time arenas offer competition prizes through ticket entry.
The second part of the roadmap aims to introduce new heroes and expand the in-game economy, making it more accessible to Web2 gamers. This includes an in-game exchange for buying NFTs and $SCAR tokens directly. Additionally, a land rental feature will enable holders to earn passive income by leasing plots to other players.
ScarQuest’s open beta promises a thrilling and rewarding gaming experience, with ongoing updates and features set to enhance gameplay. Dive into the world of ScarQuest today and start your journey towards strategic dominance and lucrative rewards.
