I was just curious about it because it is another Web3 game that people were talking about. I thought I would check it out for a few minutes and then move on. That is usually what happens when I play these games. You open the game. Quickly figure out what it wants from you. Once you understand the pattern there is nothing that makes you want to come
Pixels was different.😎
It did not try to hide its system it just did not rush to show it to me. I was not trying to figure out how the game works I was just doing things. Seeing what happens. I was walking around. Planting things without thinking too much about it. Then I realized that I did not want to leave. That is when I felt like something was different about Pixels.
Most Web3 games want you to understand everything away.
They want you to know how to play and how to earn rewards quickly as possible. Pixels does not do that. It lets you play and figure things out on your own. That changes how you play the game. You are not thinking about how to get the rewards or how to play the game in the best way. You are just. Enjoying the game. That makes the game more fun. When you are not thinking about how to get the rewards you can enjoy the game more. You can see the things that make the game fun like the rhythm of farming or the feeling of getting something new. It feels simple. It is not boring. It is hard to make a game that's simple but still fun but Pixels does a good job. Most Web3 games try to make you understand the game quickly. They make you aware of the rules and the rewards before you have a chance to enjoy playing.
Pixels does not do that.
It lets you play and enjoy the game before you have to think about the rules. That makes the game more fun. It keeps your attention longer. Another thing that is great about Pixels is that it is easy to play. It uses Ronin. You do not feel like you are using a blockchain. There are no interruptions or breaks in the game. It just feels smooth and easy to play. That is important because players do not stay in a game because of the technology. They stay because the game is fun and it feels good to play. There are still some questions about Pixels. What happens later in the game? Can it keep players engaged for a time?
Will the economy of the game work when more players join? Those are things that we do not know yet. Pixels feels like it is trying to do things differently. It is not trying to make the game more complicated or impressive. It is trying to make the game easy and fun to play. That might be the key, to making a great game. Because the next group of players will not be looking for a game that's complicated or hard to play. They will be looking for a game that's easy and fun.
Pixels might be the game that they are looking for. It is not trying to change everything it is just trying to make the game feel good to play.
