strategy

Strategy games come in a variety of types. From epic, 4x scenarios, to tense real-time PVP battles, to auto-battlers, and more! And the blockchain / web3 scene is no stranger to this style of gameplay. Perhaps the most famous example is Axie Origins, part of the Axie Infinity suite of games.

There are plenty of strategy games in various stages of alpha and beta playtests. But here are a few free to play, web3 strategy games that you can play right now. Most of them offer some sort of play and earn rewards, either with tokens and/or tradable game assets!

  • Axie Origins – turn based team fights with Axie creatures
  • Voxie Tactics – turn based, fantasy themed team fights on randomized maps
  • Planet IX – web-based, expand and grow your are of control to help restore a ravaged planet
