Steem Games: Comparing Splinterlands, DrugWars and NextColony
View this post on Hive: Steem Games: Comparing Splinterlands, DrugWars and NextColony
I have moved all my content away from the now centralized and controlled Steem blockchain to the decentralized Hive blockchain.
Just got into Steemmonsters and god it's addicting! I was earning around 1 DEC at Bronze 3 but as I play more games and rise in divisions I start earning way more now. Bronze 1 win earns me around 5 DEC now if I beat a higher division opponent 🔥🔥
About Drugwars, I invested around 30 STEEM when the game was first launched and got back at least triple the Steem in less than a month.
I somehow got bored of it to tell you the truth, not my style 🤔🤔
Never tried playing NextColony but as I see people posting tons of positive feedback I think I'll try it out soon 😁😁
Great blog @flauwy , off to play Splinterlands now.
Peace ✌✌

Nice breakdown!
I loved your money bags rating system too.
I have been playing drugwars for a few weeks only just started earning future maybe a week ago, it's kind of hard starting out later, unless there is some cooldown after battles or something I am not aware of... I get attacked several times daily.. I'm basically a farm for the older players 😂
I only just got started on nextcolony also... long way to go on that one!
Splinterlands is definitely the jewel of steem in my eyes!
Can't get enough of it. Guilds starting really soon and once the mobile app launches, I think we will have another wave of people onboarding... Make sure you guys stock up on cheap cards before the app launches!
@flauwy Hits us again with his kick ass gaming content! Interesting comparison looking at things from a financial perspective. Pretty awesome that players can have fun and earn with games, the future is bright!
Dear @flauwy
I'm not much into games and I never played any of those mentioned ones.
However I would like to ask you a question: in order to play any of those games - would user need to understand what crypto and blockchain are about? Do they need to purchase STEEM in the first place?
Just curious. Im just wondering if potential userbase for any game on Steem = people who are already on steem.
Finally. All those spammy posts in my opinion damaged thousands of accounts. After all would anyone follow or even visit accounts that is posting so much spammy-looking posts? I hardly doubt so.
ps. I just visited @drugwars profile and I was wondering .... how to start playing that game? There is no website displayed anywhere. Could you help?
One more question: I just signed up to NextColony to try it out. Do they actually use our accounts to post anything on Steemit? Do they post some automatic reports? I hope not. Please advise.
Upvote on the way:)

Users don't need to understand anything about crypto at first. Splinterlands is even having a free delegation system, to assign SP to new players without enough Resource Credits. DrugWars even allows to have no Steem account at all, as far as I know. And NextColony is such a slow game, users can easily familiarize themselves with everything over time, including Steem itself. Particularly Splinterlands will be able to onboard new users via their upcoming mobile app and PayPal payment system.
Spammy posts are annoying but on the other hand are we simply used to the current form of feeds from our followers. It is already diversifying into tribes and special front-ends. Eventually, few will look at the overall Steem feed of a user and rather focus on community feeds. And within each community, everything goes according to the communities rules, including spammy posts, if they wish so.
I cannot say much about DrugWar. I started way back and never got the hang of it because I don't like the "thug theme". Also, they have integrated tons of new features just recently and I haven't had time to get into it. Like I wrote in the article, I think it has become much better and they devs are trying their best to make the game better. My favorites are clearly Splinterlands and NextColony.
NextColony is not using anything from your account and works with Steem Keychain. That means, they NEVER get access to your account in the first place, as the private key never leaves your local computer. Different story when you use Steem Connect instead but even then you don't have to fear any posting whatsoever.
Dear @flauwy
Thank you for your kind and prompt reply. Appreciate it.
Seriously amazing comment.
ps.
Since you're so responsive, I thought that perhaps I could share with you my latest publication and ask about your own opinion on discussed subject:
"DID OUR WORLD LEADERS JUST PUSH GLOBAL RECESSION AWAY from our doorsteps?"
