The ancient oriental legends of the twelve zodiac animals and star signs are the central theme for Zodium’s gaming world, where anyone can contribute and earn by collecting Zodiac characters and playing games. Each astrological and animal zodiac sign has its own inherent traits and blessings assigned to it which emphasizes the originality of Zodium’s unique 3D animated characters. With just one NFT, users will be able to access and enjoy numerous play-to-earn games ranging from mini-games to RPG games. To get started, users connect their wallet and enter their birthday to discover their soul Zodiac and then open the card pack to discover three NFT cards. There are five different tiers of NFTs and they will be used as access to the upcoming games. Higher-tiered NFTs allow users to earn more rewards and play a significant role in the 12 KINDs guild.\n"},"tunes":{"alignment":{"alignment":"left"}}},{"id":"lswYrEZknq","type":"image","data":{"file":{"url":"https://assets.polkastarter.com/wltml94nkoiz4wk5m2f78dp03rom"},"caption":"","withBorder":false,"stretched":false,"withBackground":false,"url":"https://assets.polkastarter.com/wltml94nkoiz4wk5m2f78dp03rom"}},{"id":"59XkDrXiQx","type":"header","data":{"text":"Problem","level":6},"tunes":{"alignment":{"alignment":"left"}}},{"id":"cD_fm2ZJ0K","type":"header","data":{"text":"New and creative ideas for blockchain gaming needed","level":1},"tunes":{"alignment":{"alignment":"left"}}},{"id":"jCfEi97K8H","type":"paragraph","data":{"text":"In the current market, many play-to-earn projects are just unoriginal copies of already existing games.
