ACQUISITIONROYALE

NFT stands for “Non-Fungible Token”, and basically it’s a unique digital item stored on the blockchain that can be owned and traded - for example, the Enterprises in Acquisition Royale!

To play Acquisition Royale, you will need:

    - a crypto wallet that supports Polygon (e.g. MetaMask)

    - MATIC on Polygon (for the auction, gameplay actions, and transaction fees)

You can follow our step-by-step guide for the best ways to get MATIC onto your Polygon wallet.

Once you’ve prepared the above, you’re ready to participate in The Founding (to claim an Enterprise) and the game itself (after The Founding concludes).

To understand how the game works, please read through this website and these FAQs! If you have any further questions, feel free to ask us in Discord.

prePO is an upcoming decentralized trading platform allowing anyone, anywhere to gain exposure to the upside or downside of any pre-IPO company or pre-token crypto project.

Gamification is core to the vision for the prePO platform, as it will make the trading experience more accessible and fun.

We not only wanted to create an engaging and experimental blockchain game that stands on its own, but also one that attracts users from various NFT and crypto gaming communities and gets them excited about the prePO platform.

Each Enterprise NFT represents a player within this experimental battle royale game.

Enterprises automatically accumulate Runway Points (RP), and can perform the following gameplay actions: Merge, Compete, Acquire, Fundraise, Rename, and Rebrand.

You can mint an Enterprise through The Founding (start date to be announced).

You can also win Enterprises through topping leaderboards and active community participation (make sure to join our Discord and Twitter community).

At the start of the game, there are 15k Enterprises:

    - 5k given out for free to owners of various NFT projects

    - 9k purchasable for 15 MATIC each

    - 1k reserved for collaborations, influencers, contributors, competitions, and giveaways

Of course, since this is a battle royale game, the number of Enterprises will fall over time, meaning surviving Enterprises will become rarer over time.

9k Enterprises can be purchased for a fixed price of 15 MATIC.

The sale ends once all Enterprises have been purchased. However, the game can start before the end of the sale.

There is no limit to the total number of Enterprises that can be claimed by an address, and there is no limit (besides gas limits) to how many Enterprises can be claimed within a single transaction.

The game will commence once enough Enterprises have been distributed (e.g. 5000+), as this important in order to achieve the optimal battle royale gameplay experience!

Prior to the game’s commencement, no gameplay actions can be performed and no RP will be accumulated.

The game never strictly ends; however, due to the game’s Dynamic Difficulty mechanism, it will become increasingly difficult for acquisitions to occur, so the supply of Enterprises is likely to stabilize at some number in the later stages of the game.

Runway Points (RP) are automatically accumulated to the balance of each Enterprise every block. Each Enterprise can earn RP at an even faster rate by performing more Merger and Acquisition actions (note: there is initially a cap on the amount of RP earnable per Enterprise per day, to prevent individual Enterprises from becoming too powerful too quickly).

Enterprises can also perform a Fundraise action, where new RP can be purchased directly from the smart contracts for a dynamic price (based upon supply and demand).

RP may also be earned through community giveaways and contests, or by placing strongly within game leaderboards.

Finally, as fully-fungible ERC-20 tokens, secondary markets may also exist for the trading of RP.

Rename/Rebrand/Revive Tokens (ERC-1155) can be purchased from OpenSea or via community participation and giveaways .

These consumable tokens are in strictly limited supply:

    - 10k Rename Tokens

    - 1k Rebrand Tokens

    - 100 Revive Tokens

These tokens are burnt upon use, so they will become increasingly rare over time.

Each Enterprise starts with a default name (“Enterprise #number”), but can be renamed by burning 1x Rename Token.

Names must meet the following requirements to be considered valid:

    - Must be unique

    - Max 20 characters

    - Only letters or spaces

    - Cannot start or end with a space

    - No consecutive spaces

The team and community can decide to remove offensive names.

Acquisition Royal provides initial fully-on-chain artwork (‘branding’) for each Enterprise which dynamically updates based on your Enterprise’s gameplay stats.

However, the community can vote-in support for additional interpretive artwork to represent the Enterprises, meaning each Enterprise could have multiple brandings to rebrand to.

Rebranding is when an Enterprise switches their artwork (‘branding’) to another branding that has been approved by the community for their particular Enterprise.

Rebranding to a new branding requires the burning of 1x Rebrand Token.

Rebranding to a branding which you previously rebranded to has no cost.

Reviving is when an Enterprise that has been burnt (through a merger or acquisition) is brought back to life under new ownership with all its old properties (compete / acquisition / merger points, name, unlocked brandings).

Reviving requires the burning of 1x Revive Token.

You can revive any burnt Enterprise, even if you didn’t previously own it. Once the Enterprise is revived, it will be immune from acquisition for some period of time, or until the Enterprise performs a compete / acquisition / merger action.

After The Founding, the team will be iteratively rolling out UI improvements for interacting with the Acquisition Royale smart contracts, in addition to competitions and giveaways in the community.

Additionally, the community - via the Acquisition Royale Grants Program - will be incentivized to build out further enhancements/extensions/integrations for the game.

Once prePO has launched, we’d like to explore use cases for Enterprises on the platform.

Please fill out this form!

5% of all proceeds will go towards the most effective charities. The remainder of funds will be allocated towards the Acquisition Royale Grants Program, ongoing support for the game, future games, and prePO itself.

Acquisition Royale will be offering retrospective grants of up to 5000 USD for artwork, integrations, extensions, resources, and other tangible contributions to the growth and development of Acquisition Royale.

Grant amounts are at the full discretion of the team, with help from the community. Feel free to discuss with the team about indicative (non-binding) grant amounts a contribution may receive.

A form to apply for a retrospective grant will be made available here after the game commences.
