The Order of the Kraken is still in the very early stages of development and we are excited to bring our take on a unique pirate themed world to the Cardano community and beyond.
The Order of the Kraken is foremost a unique, end-of-the-world, futuristic pirate-themed NFT collection built on the Cardano blockchain.
Our NFT collection, and the Project as a whole, draws inspiration from the romance of the Golden Age of Piracy and blends it with a completely fictional and futuristic world created by the founders and to be finally shaped by the OTK community.
Our vision is initially for early Project participants to have the opportunity to collect and curate a variety of NFTs that represent different aspects of the pirate world.
The NFT collection aims not only to be visually stunning, but also to build out a rich, pirate-themed immersive experience supported by a continuous and expanding narrative that will allow Project participants to engage, compete and eventually help build, a game world far beyond just the initial collection of NFTs.
Project participants can from the outset expect an experience whereby they will need to carefully strategise and curate their NFT collection to provide them with the best foundation to embark on voyages of discovery for infamy, fortune and adventure as they explore the progressive lore and the world of the Order of the Kraken.
The ultimate ambition of the Project is to release a MMORPG game with a distinct Play-to-Own dynamic.
The Project has at its core the following pillars:
The initial NFT assets will form the baseline to enable Project participants to undertake voyages of discovery for treasure, artefacts and ultimately to be rewarded with Pieces of Eight ($EIGHT) the Project's in-game utility token. The GameFi elements of the Project aim to provide participants with a sense of ownership and control over the various elements of the Project and eventually the game and its economy. It is through these gamefi elements in conjunction with the direct utility of the NFTs that the Project will seek to to offer potential real-world rewards through game asset ownership with the aim to make the gamified experience more engaging and enjoyable for participants.
Community plays an important part in the Project and participants will join one of the 12 Pirate families to compete to unlock lore, artefacts and other treasures which will have a direct effect on voyages and ultimately reward distribution levels in the later stages of the Project's development. The Project is to form the Brethren Court to support its community governance ambitions and to allow the community to have a direct impact and influence on the development of the Project from the early stages.
Once the Project has reached critical mass and adoption, the planned game mechanics will be opened to new participants in a Play-to-Own model supported by the early adopters to actively expand the OTK ecosystem and game to new participants.
