[Philip Lelyveld comment; Other than promoting Libertarianism and enriching the developers, what's the point of this game and why is it using Blockchain?]
As described by Decentraland’s blog post, Chainbreakers is a “strategic role playing game” - which has been developed to capture a “fictional and stylized rendition of Ancient Greece.” The main theme, or story, of the VR game is based on the idea of “a corrupt, evil government” and those opposing its authoritarian regime.
In the VR game, these items are “represented” by non-fungible tokens (NFTs) - which are crypto tokens that represent “something unique” and are “not interchangeable.” Users may receive NFT-based rewards after successfully completing in-game tasks.
