Najawin/Sandbox 3 was a Doctor Who-themed digital trading card game launched in 2021 on PC and mobile, made by Reality Gaming Group.[1]
Limited edition packs with five cards began being distributed in October, 2020, which, once sold out, were not available for purchase again. As with physical card games, cards come in a variety of rarities and will feature a variety of creatures and characters from the history of the series. Distinct from most games, the developers decided to distinguish between the cosmetic aspects of the item, a card frame, and the actual card itself, and these things are customizable and sold separately.[2] In order to insure that there were no disputes over who owned what game pieces, Reality Gaming Group decided to implement blockchain technology for use in this game.[1][3]
After the October wave of releases, players were able to acquire more cards when the game actually released.[4] The game went into early access alpha in December 2021.[5]
Notes
- Gizmodo UK noted for their users that while the security of blockchain is often touted as a strength, it's still possible to steal items placed on the blockchain.[4]
