Train of The Century is a browser-based P2E NFT card game based on the WAX blockchain.
Train of the Century Overview
Train of The Century has a concept where players control the trains on the map called Centuryverse. Players are placed in a random place on the Centuryverse map and need to build their train. During the train building process, players can include NFT cards such as NFT wagons and NFT locomotives in their train. Each of these NFT cards has features that will affect train travel.
Players should act by thinking about the future during the train creation processes. Because there are actually many strategies in the game. When embarking on a train journey, players should pay attention to the distance, the fuel consumed, and the interaction with the NPCs they interact with on the way.
How To Play?
Players must first connect the WAX wallet to start the game. The game is not free to play. That’s why players need to purchase the following NFTs via Atomic Hub or Nefty Blocks before starting the game;
