2.10 — The Sandbox

The Sandbox is a virtual gaming world where players can build, own, and monetize their gaming experiences. Originally released in 2011, The Sandbox has grown through many iterations of game design, but in 2018, the team decided to bring the massive UGC (user generated content) game to the blockchain. This ingenuity enabled creators to, for the first time, own and transact their creations in-game. In this podcast episode, we interview Sebastien Borget, the co-founder of The Sandbox, as he tells the story of early days mobile gaming, user generated content, and the revolution of blockchain technology. Sebastien’s passion and vision for the future of gaming is showcased in his desire to help creators in-game monetize the value they are bringing. This revolutionary new concept is only made possible by NFTs.

Blockstars is a music management simulation game where players form bands of musicians called Blockstars who write, record, and release singles, package their greatest hits into albums, go busking and gigging, put in the time and effort to improve their skills, and eventually work towards the goal of earning enough money to start and upgrade their own record label - which in turn unlocks a whole new game loop where players sign up and nurture the next generation of Blockstars talent.   The gameplay is based on the passage of time as it occurs in reality and revolves on the 24-hour clock. The game is balanced and designed to allow competition across a wide range of play styles, allowing both seasoned players and total newcomers to compete for spots on the leaderboards.   In this podcast episode, we interview Niko Vuori, the founder and CEO of Blockstars, about the Blockstars game, his experience in the industry, advice for builders and what the future holds for both gamers and developers in the web3 space.

Blockchain Brawlers is a play-to-earn game where users can earn real money, just by getting into the digital ring and fighting an opponent. It’s built on the WAX blockchain and the premise is very simple. Purchase a Brawler, equip it with some Gear, step into the Ring, and duke it out. Rewards come in the form of digital tokens, which holders can exchange for fiat currency. As things stand, gameplay is very limited. Contests end the moment you click a button, and the result appears on the screen. The outcome of a fight depends on the rarity of your Brawler: the rarer, the more chance you have of winning. In this podcast episode, we interview Michael Rubinelli, Chief Gaming Officer at WAX Studios. Michael is a legendary figure in the gaming industry with more than 25 years of experience in executive leadership, product creation, and ongoing revenue growth in top firms like Electronic Arts, Disney, THQ, and others. As the head of WAX Studios, the official game studio of WAX Blockchain that recently released its debut title, "Blockchain Brawlers," Michael Rubinelli has transitioned from the traditional gaming industry to the blockchain gaming space. We take a deep dive into the wax studio games, his thoughts on web3 gaming and how to onboard more gamers into the space.
