Blast Royale is a free-to-play multiplayer shooter and battle royale game with isometric/top down view for mobile (Android, iOS), by First Light Games. The game centers on real-time player-vs-player (PvP) shooting combat, where 48 players compete in short, action-packed 4-6 minute matches. Players parachute into large, interactive maps, collecting weapons, armor, and other items to outlast opponents in a shrinking play area. In addition to solo gameplay, Blast Royale supports team-based modes such as Duos and Quads, and offers social features like clans and custom rooms. Trophies, leaderboards, and seasonal events reward players for their in-game achievements. Blast Royale integrates blockchain technology (Ethereum, Immutable) to enhance its economy, providing players with true ownership of in-game assets through NFTs and the $NOOB cryptocurrency.

Blockchain Integration
WhitepaperBlast Royale features a partially player-owned economy where players can effectively own and trade many in-game digital assets (e.g. characters, weapons, gear, avatars, cryptocurrency) outside of the game, using smart contracts built on the Ethereum blockchain to record and secure transactions and ownership thereof. The game also has its own cryptocurrency, $NOOB, which serves as a premium in-game currency, a reward token, and a governance token.
Blast Royale is not open source. While ownership of digital assets is decentralized and secured on the blockchain, users may not be able to run the game in the event that its online service is prematurely shut down.
