$100K in Early Prizes Looks to Lure the NFT-Curious to Decentraland

Decentraland opened for gameplay on Thursday and anyone who thinks they might like it is better off playing now rather than later, because free stuff.

For regular gamers, Decentraland may be a new kind of experience, what they call a "Metaverse" where different game properties can meet in a shared virtual world.

Decentraland is a 3D world that people can navigate as they do in popular video games such as Fortnite or Call of Duty, except players both explore and build the world, like Minecraft but with money on the line.

Theoretically, players will be able to do it with virtual reality equipment, too, but because demand for that medium has not been as high as many had hoped, Decentraland is not prioritizing these features.

Decentraland players might find your property in the game and become big fans.

There are three kinds of tokens in Decentraland, MANA, WEAR and LAND. Early players are likely to find examples of the first two, though all of the latter is spoken for.

The world of Decentraland has a fixed size, made up of 90,601 parcels of land.

A player moves between parts of Decentraland by walking their character along these common spaces.

Identities will be tradeable, so Decentraland has a small fee for making a name in order to discourage name squatting, though an identity is not required to play.

From land itself to wearables in the game, most of the trade in Decentraland occurs on its marketplace.
