Best Play-to-Earn Crypto Games Besides Axie Infinity

With the NFT boom, win-win or play-to-earn (p2e) NFT-based crypto games have become hugely popular in 2022. An important thing players now look at is whether the games they play are profitable and whether the NFTs they buy actually bring them coins.

The Risk of NFT Play-to-Earn Crypto Games

There's generally a big difference between free play-to-earn crypto games and paid play-to-earn crypto games, as seen in how they're structured.

For example, while Decentraland is technically a "free" play-to-earn game, it will take players some time to freely mint an in-game NFT item and then sell it.

With SLP's price falling despite its popularity, making a profit from "Axie Infinity" has become increasingly difficult. That said, here are other NFT-based play-to-earn crypto games that could bring a profit in 2022!

What Should You Watch Out for in NFT-Based Play-to-Earn (P2E) Games?

Before getting into NFT-based games, you need to thoroughly research the game and the technology behind it. A game that seems good to you at first, or one that people are already playing, can start losing popularity over time if the company behind it doesn't keep developing it or doesn't give it the attention it needs, and the investments you've made can blow up in your hands. It's very important to look toward games with a bright future, ones that will still be playable in 1 or even 2 years, and to research how much profit the NFTs you'd buy in-game bring and how sustainable that is, and invest accordingly.

Best Play-to-Earn Crypto Games, February 2022:

'Battle of Guardians'

"Battle of Guardians" is built on the Solana blockchain. In this game, players have to compete with each other for rewards in terms of Battle points and Guardian Share. The game offers players multiple ways to earn real-world income.

'Rainmaker'

"Rainmaker" can be considered an educational game since it gives players a way to play blockchain games directly against each other. It draws on "real-time stock and crypto market data and events" to train the player's decision-making process. Players can also train and develop new opportunities.

'Splinterlands'

"Splinterlands" is actually a free-to-play, tradable card game that's been around for a very long time, inspired by "Magic the Gathering" and "Hearthstone." It also has an economic system that's already hard to crash. Unlike "Axie Infinity," whose SLP price has fallen sharply, Splinterlands has tried to keep its coin price stable and has partly succeeded. (the market is very bad right now.) Players can earn with the cards in their hands, and their cards' value changes based on their stats.

'RaceFi'

"RaceFi" is built on the Solana blockchain and is considered the first car racing ecosystem of its kind. RaceFi lets players race, and even own in-game properties and earn in their own metaverse. One drawback of this game, however, is that it runs on the AXS and SLP currencies, both of which have dropped significantly in value recently.

'Polygonum'

"Polygonum" is described as "a free-to-play, cross-platform DeFi multiplayer survival game featuring NFT-based crypto and open-world game components." -that description is a bit long :) - This means there can be multiple ways for players to earn, including coin mining and trading in-game assets. The game has three zones, covering Farming (FARM), PVP, and PVE.

Why Isn't 'Axie Infinity' on the List?

The games mentioned above are NFT-based play-to-earn (p2e) games that have reached a certain number of players but still haven't quite hit their peak. Even though SLP, Axie Infinity's coin, has seen a big drop recently, the game's volume, entry fees, and in-game NFT fees are still quite high. Given that, we wanted to steer toward more reasonably priced games instead of including it. We'll also be covering lesser-known and newly released P2E games. One of them is Town Star.
