Q: What is Pebble City?
“Pebble City: Next-gen Web3 Social Casino Game”
Pebble City is a free-to-play, next-generation web3 social casino game. It offers an immersive gaming experience through a variety of high-quality slot and casino games in a multi-casino system.
One of Pebble City's standout features is true decentralized asset ownership. Holders of the Casino Membership NFT, the flagship NFT of Pebble City, effectively become casino owners. They earn a share of the chip-ins generated within the social casino and receive various in-game items to enhance their gameplay. As more users join and play, the chip-ins increase, leading to greater rewards for NFT holders.
Q: Can you introduce the Pebble Platform and explain how it enhances the Pebble City experience?
Pebble Platform is a pioneering Web3 gaming platform that offers a seamless experience for playing blockchain games. Backed by NHN, South Korea's top social casino game studio, Pebble Platform is set to introduce top-tier games complemented by transparent and reliable Web3 services, ensuring accessibility for players, regardless of their familiarity with blockchain technology.
As your go-to Web3 platform, Pebble allows you to purchase Pebble City NFTs, convert in-game items into NFTs, and explore Pebble's upcoming titles. Currently, the Pebble beta is live, with additional Web3 features slated for integration.
Q: Could you Introduce NHN?
Pebble City and Pebble are backed by NHN, a renowned South Korean IT firm known for operating the largest online board game studio in the Asia-Pacific region. NHN's diverse business portfolio includes games, payments, entertainment, IT, and advertisement. Despite its comprehensive IT capabilities, NHN has a rich history and strong presence in the gaming sector, dating back to the early 2000s when it launched the popular online game portal, HANGAME.
NHN was among the pioneering South Korean IT firms to introduce a portal service solely dedicated to gaming. Over the years, NHN has developed and published numerous genres of games, establishing itself as South Korea's top social casino game studio.
Q: What are the Unique Features of Pebble City?
Pebble City offers an immersive social casino game experience with high-quality slot games and multiplayer casino games. As a true casino city, Pebble City features multiple casinos, each with its own unique theme, allowing players the freedom to choose the casino that best suits their tastes.
One of the standout features is the variety of casinos available, much like the diverse array of hotels and casinos in Las Vegas. Each casino offers different slots and games, providing a tailored experience for every player. For instance, one of our popular games, Doge's Dream, has been a favorite among players, offering a thrilling and engaging experience.
Additionally, Pebble City Casino Membership NFTs enhance the gaming experience by granting holders a share of the chips from total wagers and exclusive in-game items like the Star Cube. These items can be converted into NFTs or ultimately into Stars, adding another layer of excitement and value to the gameplay.
Q: When is the Game Launching?
We are excited to share that Pebble City is set to launch in early Q3. While we can't reveal all the details just yet, you can always stay updated and get more information by joining our Discord server. Keep an eye out for announcements and be the first to know about any updates!
Q: Can you provide more details about the Casino Membership NFT?
The Casino Membership NFT allows users to become owners of casinos in Pebble City. Once you hold a Casino Membership NFT, you will receive a share of chips derived from the total number of wagers made by players during games.
Pebble City Casino NFT Utility
Rolling Chips (Free Chips) Casino Membership NFT owners receive rolling chips, which are free chips equivalent to a certain percentage of the chips used by players in the casino. By holding these NFTs, you can enjoy extended gameplay using the rolling chips or in-game assets received as incentives. Additionally, these assets can be converted into NFTs and exchanged with other users through the Pebble platform's NFT marketplace. This utility helps in building and operating a large user community at the casino level.
In-Game Item Drops (Starcube) Casino Membership NFT holders will also receive airdrops of exclusive in-game items, such as the Starcube. These items are used to ultimately obtain the game's Star currency, adding another layer of engagement and reward.
We also have a utility token, Starble. On the Pebble platform, you can convert Stars to Starble, which can then be used to purchase Casino Membership NFTs, rolling chip NFTs, and other in-game NFTs in the Pebble marketplace.
Q: Why did you choose Sui Chain and do you have any recommended wallets?
Choosing Sui Chain for Pebble City was a strategic decision based on its advanced technological capabilities and its focus on enhancing the gaming experience. Here are the key reasons why we chose Sui Chain:
Extensive Technological Capabilities
We needed a blockchain with robust technological features to ensure a smooth Web3 gaming experience. Sui’s core strengths include:
High Transactions Per Second (TPS): Sui can process up to 297,000 transactions per second (TPS), significantly outpacing Ethereum’s 30 TPS and Solana’s 65,000 TPS.
Quick Finality: The Sui blockchain can fully confirm a transaction in less than a second, providing a seamless experience for users.
Focus on Game Experience
Instant Settlement: The speed of the Sui network and its Dynamic NFTs enable instant settlement, allowing any changes to the NFT to go live during gameplay without lag.
Easy Onboarding with zkLogin: Sui’s zkLogin makes the process of onboarding to Web3 straightforward by replacing the need for installing a wallet with simple social logins.
Low Transaction Fees: Sui offers a low transaction fee of approximately $0.001 per transaction, making it cost-effective for users.
Recommended Wallets
Sui Wallet (by Mysten Labs)
To participate in Pebble & Pebble City's events and successfully mint rewards on the Sui chain, you'll need to use the Sui Wallet by Mysten Labs. Other Sui network wallets are not recommended for this purpose.
Pebble Wallet
Users will need the Pebble Wallet to mint and hold their Casino Membership NFT and all other Pebble & Pebble City assets. Creating a Pebble account and wallet is straightforward and user-friendly, even for Web2 users. Simply visit Pebble Stream to sign up and create your new account and wallet.
By choosing Sui Chain, we ensure that Pebble City provides a fast, secure, and user-friendly gaming experience, leveraging the latest in blockchain technology.
Q: Is there anything else you'd like to add?
We have a series of exciting community events planned starting in May, including the Loyal Badge NFT Campaign. By holding five of these Loyal Badges, you get the chance to mint the Membership NFT for free. While the first campaign has already ended, making it impossible to collect all five badges now, there are still plenty of benefits available for holding the remaining badges. Additionally, we have numerous internal and external whitelist giveaway events planned, so stay tuned for updates on Pebble City's events.
Thank you,
