The huge money-making effect of Axis has opened up the popularity of GameFi games. It is also because of the success of Axis that many chain games that were developed in 2018 have accelerated their development process. Recently, we have also seen the popularity of games such as Alice World and Crypto Zoo.
With the launch of these games one after another, GameFi, a brand new track, has been expanded, and a new development idea has been opened for the implementation of the blockchain.
This article introduces four GameFi games that have not yet issued tokens and games that have not yet been officially launched. These games either borrow from traditional mobile games, or restart the narrative, and incorporate blockchain, NFT, land, Defi and other gameplay. They are well-made and worth looking forward to. I hope that through a simple introduction, I will expand some early participation project investment opportunities for you.

Generally speaking, the above four games all have their own Play to Earn mode, and similar games with similar gameplay can be found in the traditional game market. These games have expanded the narrative logic and imagination space of the game through the combination of blockchain and encrypted assets, which can be regarded as an upgrade to traditional games.
However, the integration of Play to earn only expands the attractiveness of the game. Whether the game can succeed in the end and whether it has investment value depends on the specific economic model, game experience, marketing, etc. There is not much information on the more specific incentive models of the above games, and it is temporarily impossible to determine the investment value of the games.

Some malleable thoughts on GameFi
The recent emergence of GameFi projects may represent a major trend in the future game market: traditional mobile games are integrated into the Play to Earn model, and game assets and interaction processes are uploaded to the chain, thereby attracting more players and encrypted asset income.
policy regulation
policy regulation
copyright infringement
transfer of power
The trillion-scale traditional game market has only opened the entrance for deposits, and there is no exit for withdrawals (most games). Chain games can freely deposit funds through encrypted assets, which conflicts with the regulatory policies of traditional games and cannot become a source of taxation. Once the GameFi market takes shape, or evolves into an XQ channel, it will inevitably attract the attention and crackdown of regulators.
At present, many chain games similar to or exactly the same as traditional game models have begun to appear. If the development teams of these chain games do not have the copyright or authorization of the original game, they will inevitably form infringement, leaving hidden dangers for the long-term development of the game.
The decentralized distribution of game assets allows players to fully control game assets, which will give players more sovereignty, but the strengthening of player sovereignty means the weakening of the power of game publishers. If traditional game manufacturers choose to do this, it means self-revolution and changing the original strong position in determining asset allocation.
Resistance exists objectively, but the potential value of the release of the GameFi model is equally huge, and the development of new models and new industries has never been achieved overnight. Now, we also need to try to follow the great man's idea of "crossing the river by feeling the stones", continue to explore, and make a way for GameFi.
