What is Civitas?
Civitas is an economic strategy with the ability for players to build their own cities and influence their development. Each user can cooperate or compete with other players to achieve their goals.
Each player who buys an NFT will become a citizen of the city in which he owns one or more plots. These areas can be used for resource extraction.
Augmented Reality (AR)
Civitas features augmented reality (AR) that will allow players to feel closer to this universe and go on real-life adventures to obtain resources, play mini-games and discover rare NFTs. Those players who will not have the opportunity to enjoy the AR capabilities in this project will not be deprived of the opportunity to receive rewards; there are expedition mechanics for them, which will also help players get theirs.
City Government and SubDAO
CITI project tokens, which are based on the Ethereum blockchain and act as in-game currency, are also used to manage DAO and SubDAO, which allows players to participate in decision-making on the development of Civitas.
A DAO is a decentralized autonomous organization that is the game’s governance model. CITI token holders can participate in the DAO and vote on the overall direction and development of the game, opening new cities in the world and will determine the maximum tax rate that the mayor can set.
SubDAO is an independent government that exists in every city in the game. Owning plots of land in a specific city gives players access to this SubDAO. Here players can influence the direction and development of the city.
Earning Opportunities
Players will be able to earn CITI tokens and NFTs by participating in mining, questing, trading, and exploring the world using AR.
Users will have the opportunity to stake their CITI tokens on land they own, allowing them to earn additional rewards. Each city will be able to set its own rules for staking and rewards from the city treasury.
Owners of Chosen NFTs will be able to rent them out, allowing them to earn both rent and experience, and improve the skills of their Chosen NFT while working for other players. Depending on the level of the Chosen NFT, the number of players you can trade it to at the same time will depend.
Team and partners
Civitas is developed by Directive Games, a studio founded by AAA game development veterans from Square Enis, Tencent, Weta Digital and Ubisoft. They have behind them both successful web2 projects and projects related to the development of augmented reality games.
Thanks to strong developers with a solid background, Civitas quickly gained popularity and attracted the interest of many users. Illuvium co-founder Kieran Warwick invested in Civitas. Not without funds such as Merit Circle, which invested $1 million in the project at an early stage. Now Civitas is already supported by more than 15 major partners and funds.
Conclusion
Civitas is one of the most anticipated projects in the GameFi space, offering the ability to manage entire cities and create communities. The developers promise to make their game large-scale, and in the meantime we will follow the news on this project and hope to see a high-quality project.
