Nine Chronicles

Nine Chronicles is a fully decentralized, open-source idle role-playing game (RPG) developed by Planetarium. Unlike traditional online games that rely on centralized servers, Nine Chronicles operates on a peer-to-peer distributed network where gamers and miners collectively power the game infrastructure. This architecture ensures that the game is censorship-resistant and governed by its player community, similar to decentralized networks like Bitcoin or BitTorrent. The game world is a vast fantasy setting with a complex player-driven economy where supply and demand govern the value of in-game assets.

The game’s economy is built on blockchain technology, with all in-game items represented as Non-Fungible Tokens (NFTs). This grants players true ownership of their assets, enabling them to trade, sell, or use items across the ecosystem. The community also plays a direct role in shaping the game’s content and development direction, fostering a dynamic and evolving environment. The entire codebase, including game logic and 2D assets, is open source under the GNU GPL3 license, allowing developers and players to contribute, modify, or build upon the game.

To get started, users need the Unity Hub to run the Nine Chronicles client application. Developers interested in contributing or integrating with the game can access comprehensive documentation and developer resources through the Nine Chronicles Developer Portal. The portal provides detailed guides on the game’s decentralized architecture, blockchain mechanics, and GraphQL API. Nine Chronicles represents a novel approach to online gaming by combining blockchain’s transparency and decentralization with a rich, player-driven RPG experience.
