Cryowar is a free-to-play multiplayer arena brawler with cross-platform play on PC and mobile, developed by Cryowar Ltd. The core game features real-time 1v1v1 PvP combat with skill and class-based gameplay in a futuristic sci-fi setting, various game modes, a crafting system, and dynamic level objectives. Cryowar integrates blockchain technology (Solana) to record and secure ownership of digital assets purchased by players, namely NFT assets (e.g. skins, pets, land) and cryptocurrency. Cryowar has its own cryptocurrency ($CWAR), which serves mainly as a medium of exchange, player reward and governance token.

Blockchain Integration
WhitepaperCryowar features decentralized governance, letting users vote on key decisions, and a partially player-owned economy where users can effectively own and trade valuable in-game digital assets (e.g. skins, pets, items, land, cryptocurrency) outside of the game, using smart contracts built on the Solana blockchain to record and secure transactions and ownership of said assets. Cryowar has its own cryptocurrency ($CWAR), NFT marketplace, and decentralized autonomous organization (DAO).
