What The Heck Are “Wanderers”?

In the vast universe of Wanderers, you’re part of a band of the best pilots in the galaxy, each tasked with a seemingly impossible feat; prevent a planet devouring wormhole from destroying your home star - simple right? After Warp Squad 16’s disappearance, you are now the only hope to discover what truly happened to those 16 pilots.

If you’re a fan of rogue-lites similar to Hades or Bastion you’ll be pleasantly surprised to Wanderers initial game loop which effortlessly blends familiar elements like permadeath, or persistent upgrades between runs, with features we’ve longed for like co-op features and continuous progression in-game and across any/all upgradable assets outside of the game.

Wanderers Open Beta Playtest on Epic Launcher

In case you live under a rock, Wanderers is currently allowing gamers to playtest their Open Beta which began on July 30th and is now LIVE on Epic Games Launcher for a 2 week duration.

Collect DATA, unlock various weapons, and travel across multiple planets to navigate the impending dangers of space and time. The RAM that was picked up prior to entering a new world, will be available to the player throughout the level as they unlock them.

How is Crypto/Blockchain Involved?

With the launch of Wanderers’ open beta, gamers will be able to participate in the Play-To-Airdrop event to earn $WANDER tokens on the Polygon blockchain. Players who participated in the closed beta test may also own digital assets including Wanderers, Wandernauts, Planets, or RAM Bundles (you may also purchase these assets via the Wanderers’ secondary markets).

RAM Bundles are one of the most unique and customizable utility benefits allowing tradable upgrades across the entire player economy on-chain. This way, the deck building mechanics become a central strategy which can completely alter player strategy, as well as the outcome of any given match.

While you can earn crypto by participating in the P2A event or trade Wanderer NFTs such as RAM, Planets, and Pilots, Wanderers stands out as a masterpiece in progress, independent of its web3 integrations. Few titles in the current web3 gaming space avoid the “pay-to-win” model or offer a game loop compelling enough to revisit beyond a few minute

Play-To-Airdrop Event: $WANDER Coin

Those who choose to participate in Wanderers’ P2A event will receive a $WANDER airdrop based upon their campaign stats during the questing period. To complete quests, simply:

  • Log in to the CODEX to claim your ID & Galaxy

  • Click on stars to reveal and complete quests

  • Earn star fragments and XP as you complete quests unlocking new nodes and more tasks

  • New quests will be released in batches each week

  • The bigger your galaxy, the bigger your airdrop rewards!

WanderCoin ($WANDER) is a token being created by the decentralized WanderCorp foundation. There is no official TGE date at this time, however, WanderCorp, WanderLabs, and other partners stress the effort they are putting into developing an ecosystem that will ‘last for eons to come.
