Mines of Dalarnia (DAR)
An Action Adventure Play-to-Earn Game on Binance Smart Chain.Mines of Dalarnia is a play-to-earn action-adventure game with procedurally generated levels on Binance Smart Chain (BSC). Players mine and collect various in-game items (i.e. minerals, rare relics and artifacts), improve their skills and gear to unlock the secrets of the Dalarnia universe.

- In-game currency: Players are able to use DAR to buy and rent in-game assets on the marketplace.
- Play-to-earn incentives: Players can earn DAR through selling their in-game items collected from in-game quests or through winning in competitions. In addition, players that own in-game land plots are able to collect a rental fee by renting out to other players to explore.
- Governance: DAR token holders will be able to vote on proposals to decide on the land economy, miner policies and other components of the game development.
- Staking rewards: Users can stake DAR for early access to more game features and contents as well as for token rewards.
DAR consists of the following major components working in conjunction:
- Procedurally generated levels: The various in-game mines have different terrain types (i.e. terrestrial, lava, arctic, and toxic) with difficulty levels. As the players progress, they will need to deploy their in-game assets strategically to traverse through the various mines (i.e. upgrading their character’s tools).
- Decentralized ownership of in-game assets: All in-game assets (minerals, tools, land plots) that can be owned by players are represented as NFTs. Players can exchange and trade the NFTs on various NFT marketplaces.
- In-game marketplace: The in-game marketplace allows players to buy and sell their assets.
- Social features: Players can invite friends to the game and meet new people through exploring on Dalarnia planet. In addition, players can collaborate on mining strategies, compete in tournaments, and exchange game assets on the marketplace.

1. What is Mines of Dalarnia (DAR)?
Mines of Dalarnia is an action-adventure game with procedurally generated levels on Binance Smart Chain (BSC). Players mine and collect various in-game items (i.e. minerals, rare relics and artifacts), improve their skills and gear to unlock the secrets of the Dalarnia universe. There are different mines with varying terrains to be explored and monsters to conquer in the quest for these rare resources of the Dalarnian world.
The game aims to engage the broader player audience, particularly those with little to no prior experience in crypto, and bridge the gap with the traditional gaming industry.
Through issuing the in-game assets as NFTs, players can own and monetize their game experience through trading on in-game or external marketplaces. With the governance process, players are able to influence the game development, and have ownership of the game.
Play-to-earn: The DAR token economics design includes various incentives for players to earn in the game. Depending on each player’s strategy, they could be rewarded through actively playing the game, winning in competitions or passively earning from renting out their land plots to other users.
Diverse Gameplay: Besides the exploration of mines across the Dalarnian world, there is a real estate gameplay element to the game. Players that choose to buy land plots, can rent out to other players to explore and in return earn a rental fee. Reversely, instead of out-right purchasing land plots, players can choose to rent land plots of their choice to explore and gather resources.
