6 min readApr 19, 2022

Greetings, adventurers 🤿

We are finally here. It is time to dive deep!

What a journey. It has been hectic for us at Koi Metaverse since the beginning of this endeavor and we know many of you have always been with us through ups and downs. With this game launch, we feel like it is a good opportunity to do a recap.

First off, thank you, the supporters and players.

Thanks to the people who helped us test and continue to refine Koi Metaverse. Thanks to the people who gave us valuable feedback and criticism, even when we disagree. However, we are proud and confident to say we have achieved great results together, as a community ❤️

Key Results Recap

Before the final release of our game, on November 1st of 2021, we announced Koi Labs had secured $2.6 Million in Pre-A Funding successfully to explicitly kick-off and fuel the exponential growth of Koi Metaverse.

Koi Metaverse Game Launch

Now, in the murky, unexplored depths beneath the sea lies many secrets and gems. To unlock these treasures, you must learn to cultivate your ability to shine even in the darkest place.

The questions remain unanswered. Are you brave enough to dive deep into the abyss where the corals, reefs, and endless mysteries lay untouched?

Welcome to our Game Launch 🤿👇

Mystery Box

🐠 Each Koi Mystery Box contains a special and random Koi Fish NFT. Players won’t be able to know the content until they purchase and open the box.

These unique Koi fish NFTs will take you and me to the edge of the world. We believe these NFTs are powerful enough to make you conflate virtual space with reality. In addition, the NFTs you are about to own also come with utility and reward, and they will show you what treasures the deepest of the deep hoards.

🎮 Each of these Koi NFTs represents both unique digital collectibles on the BSC blockchain as well as players’ access to our blockchain games.

🚨 With the latest iteration, we have added the Referral Code function, with which you and your friend can earn a free Mystery Box if you buy 5 or more Mystery Box.

$SHELL Mine

The most important way to obtain the game token $SHELL is simply to stake a certain number of fish in the mining contract, which distributes mining power daily according to the fish attributes.

On the $SHELL Mining page, you will be able to 👇

Approve staking your Fish to accumulate $SHELL rewards
Withdraw your staked fish anytime
Claim the accrued reward

Breed

Breeding is the only way gamers can mint new NFT assets.

As history tells, fortune only favors the brave. In the deep ocean, nothing is guaranteed.

In the course of fish breeding Koi fish, the progeny genes are naturally inherited from the parent fish genes, and each parent has a 50% chance to propagate its genes.

The scarcity of the fish gene, besides the normal level, is classified into different levels: scarce, epic, and legendary, which, respectively, have a 75%, 60%, and 50% chance to be inherited. There is a 1% chance to increase the gene scarcity level, or the genes will mutate into random and normal genes.

(Please know that the game parameters mentioned are subject to change.)

$KOI Mine

KOI Mine is also called Gene-Suit Fish Collection.

Fish are the most important NFT asset of Koi Metaverse. Each fish has up to 14 genes, and when several genes fall into a certain combination, the fish becomes what we call a gene-suite fish.

The ultimate goal of the game is to collect all genes, fish, and use them for KOI mining. The access to the genes of each family is scattered throughout the game (mystery box, fish eggs or hunting rewards, etc.)

Market

Koi Metaverse is also a marketplace that allows you and other gamers to trade valuable in-game assets so you can freely allocate your assets the way you want. This market aims to be the bridge between the real and virtual worlds by creating a platform for you to exchange value.

It is an indispensable part of our Future P2E module.

My NFT

Under the My NFT page, you can view all of your NFTs and you can also use the filter to find any specific Fish/NFT.
