Launched in September last year in the controversial 'play-to-earn' format (in which the player receives rethinks during matches) the game 'Bomb Crypto' bet on bringing a gameplay similar to 'Bomberman', another successful title from the 1980s , to arouse public interest.
The format itself isn't exactly new. In fact, the title that opened the door to this new category of blockchain-based games was 'Axie Infinity', which attracted thousands of people by proving that it was possible to earn money in the form of cryptocurrencies by playing games.
In 'Bomb Crypto', the premise is: players need to collect BCOINs, the platform's digital currency. At the time of publication, one unit is worth $2,80 (about R$15,20), according to CoinMarketCap.
Amidst the possibility of generating extra income, the game already has a worldwide base of more than 800 players. Thinking about it, we prepared a special content about the novelty.
does 'Bomb Crypto' work
At first, every player needs to buy a character to play, they are sold on the game page itself in the form of NFT (non-fungible token) for 10 Bitcoin units (about US$ 28 and just over R$ 150 in direct conversion ).
You also need to have your own wallet to spend and store earnings in cryptocurrencies. For now, the only compatible game is MetaMask. Through specialized brokers or Binance, it is also possible to convert other cryptocurrencies into BCOIN to buy heroes and game items.
There are six types of them: one, rare, super rare, epic, legendary and super legendary. The rarer it is, the longer he can use his abilities to collect Bitcoins.
It is worth mentioning that the character of a hero is completely random, that is, it is not possible to choose which one will be yours. The probability of getting a legendary super, for example, is only 0,04%.
If you are willing to invest more, a player can have up to 15 heroes working at the same time, which would cost in our currency for almost R$ 235,00. Per registered account, that number jumps to 500 characters.
It works like this: when one of the heroes runs out of energy, it is possible to replace him with another character. You can also control the recovery of heroes using items or potions and virtual houses, for example.
As usual, homes in virtual worlds can be exorbitantly priced. 'Bomb Crypto' is no different. Values start at around US$ 16 and can exceed US$ 65.
Can you make money playing 'Bomb Crypto'?
It depends on several factors. To get a positive balance, it's recommended to create a team of at least five heroes working together, which costs 50 BCOIN (US$ 140). On average, simulations indicate that it is possible to “mine” 1,41 Bitcoin daily in this way.
In practice, in just over a month, a player can recover his initial investment. That's if you don't consider another key point here: the fall in the value of Bitcoin in the market.
It is worth mentioning that the digital asset has already dropped 50% since mid-December. So let's say a player drops his first five heroes on a high day. If you decide to undo the deal later on, the chance of incurring losses increases due to the volatility of the cryptocurrency market, without considering other fees charged for withdrawals (the minimum amount for withdrawals is 40 BCOIN).
or avoid risks
The devaluation of your digital currency is not the only risk of investing in the game, games or the 'Bomb Crypto' can simply lose the traction of the moment and the interest of the public, which can make Bitcoin come out almost for free.
Possible security holes in the code can also open doors for cybercriminal attacks to clean up the platform, causing damage to all involved.
Taking all this into account, there are some factors that you need to look at closely before spending money on games like this one. Some tips from cybersecurity experts are: evaluating a game's manual, its number of users, what fees are charged and the team responsible for the title. That way, you can start your investment without generating a headache in the future.
About 'Bomb Crypto', the company responsible is the mobile game developer Senspark. Founded in 2011, the company has other well-reviewed games in the app stores, which also helps to give credibility to the project.

Expectations for the game economy
According to the project manual, 100 million tokens can be mined, with 21 million already in circulation, according to CoinGecko.
For José Artur Ribeiro, CEO of cryptocurrency broker Coinext, the large number of players brought temporary “stability” to BCOIN. "Developers had the opportunity to improve the game's economy and introduce new features and reinvestment aspects into the game."
Another point that serves as a warning in the game's documentation is: practically a third of the digital assets belong to investors and the team, that is, if they opt for a large-scale sale, this could end the game's economy.
Uncertain future
o this is a new title, 'Bomb Crypto' has only two modes: Treasury and Story, the last one was released this week. For now, according to crypto experts, the developer has delivered what it promised, however, for almost everything that involves the world of digital assets, its future is still uncertain.
Considering the entire niche of play-to-earn games, the future is promising, as giant companies in the world of games are also eyeing this market that distributes part of the profits among players.
