Preface

With the rapid development of technology, AI and blockchain have become key forces driving transformation in various industries. In the gaming industry, traditional gameplay is gradually unable to meet the increasingly diverse needs of players. On one hand, AI technology has made significant breakthroughs in natural language processing, image recognition, and other areas, providing possibilities for the creation of intelligent NPCs and personalized story generation in games, greatly enhancing the immersion and interactivity of games. On the other hand, the characteristics advocated by blockchain technology, such as decentralization and asset ownership, have intensified players’ desire to truly own game assets and participate in game governance. Meanwhile, the rise of the Web3 concept has opened up new development directions for the gaming industry. The Catton AI project is born in such a background, aiming to integrate AI and blockchain technology to create an innovative game ecosystem and bring players an unprecedented gaming experience.

The Catton AI project has determined the direction of combining AI with Web3 technology to create an innovative game with cats as the theme. This includes technology research and development, infrastructure construction, such as the development of smart contracts, the selection and customization of game engines, and the research and application of AI algorithms. Currently, the basic version of the Catton AI game has been launched on the Telegram platform, where players can experience the basic functions and gameplay of the game through the Telegram bot, such as mainline battles and completing tasks, and the game community has been initially established, attracting the first batch of players.

The project actively collaborates and interacts with other Web3 projects and communities to expand the Catton AI ecosystem. It plans to launch the $CATTON token and will hold a Token Generation Event (TGE) on February 6, 2025. This will further improve the project’s economic system and governance mechanisms, providing users with more opportunities to participate in the ecosystem.

This article will elaborate on the operational logic of the Catton AI project, including its ecosystem, gameplay, and token economy.

Game Token

The Catton AI ecosystem has three tokens, VCATTON, GEM, and CRYSTRAL, with the following specific uses:

(1) VCATTON
Upgrade character attributes: Can be used to enhance the character’s defense capabilities, by upgrading armor and other equipment, allowing the character to withstand more damage in battle and improve survivability.
Increase attack speed: Players can use this token to increase the character’s attack frequency, output more damage in a unit of time, and thus more effectively defeat enemies and gain an advantage in combat.

（2）GEM
Weapon Upgrade: It can be used to purchase materials and items required for weapon upgrades, or directly upgrade weapons to enhance their attack power, critical hit rate, and other attributes, enhancing the character’s combat abilities.
Participate in Miner Mini Game: As a necessary consumable for participating in the Miner Mini Game, players can pay GEM to enter the game and have the chance to obtain more game resources and rewards (CRYSTRAL)

(3) CRYSTAL
Increase hero damage output: After players obtain Crystal, they can significantly increase the damage output of their heroes, allowing them to deal higher damage to enemies in battle. This will be crucial in challenging powerful bosses and participating in PVP battles, among other scenarios.

Gameplay experience

Catton AI is a game project based on the Telegram platform and the TON blockchain. Users need to download the Telegram application, register a Telegram account, and search for ‘wallet’ in the Telegram application before experiencing it. Set up the wallet for purchasing and selling assets in the game.

Currently, Catton AI’s Telegeran community has accumulated a certain number of fans, close to 400,000 people.

There are three ways to play the basic game. First, it is the main battle. Users can search ‘Catton AI’ in Telegram, click ‘/start’ to start the game, and fight against enemies through ‘whisker fighting’. In the process of automatic battle, the player’s character will automatically attack the enemy, obtain experience points and VCatton rewards, improve the level and stage, and unlock more game content and features. Second, it is in the form of completing tasks. There are various daily tasks in the game, and completing them can receive GEM rewards. By achieving specific achievement goals, GEM rewards can also be obtained. Third, it is through joining the community. Users can click the ‘Join Team’ button in the game, choose a favorite team to join, or join a team through a direct invitation link, cooperate with other players, and participate in team activities to obtain rewards. The game has 10 leagues from Iron to Challenger. Players can upgrade their stage and ranking based on the amount of VCatton. The top 50 players in each league can receive rewards, and the top players in the highest league can receive generous special rewards.

Users can spend GEM to participate in the miner mini-game and mine resources such as CRYSTRAL, GEM, VCatton, etc. in the game. They can also mine ‘warp time’ to help players quickly advance to the future stage and get more rewards.

Finally, there is a way to upgrade your strength:

(1) Upgrade equipment
Upgrade Armor: Use V Catton to upgrade armor, enhance character’s defense and survivability, and also increase attack power by 1 point per second.
Upgrade Weapons: Spend Gems to upgrade weapons, increase weapon attack power and other attributes, causing more damage with each attack, and also increase attack power by 5 per second.
Upgrade Ring: Use Crystal to upgrade the ring, significantly increase the hero’s damage output, and increase attack power by 30 points per second.

(2) Activate Blessing Boost
Free claim: You can claim blessings for free every day, which doubles the speed of battles and the speed of obtaining VCatton.
Activate with Gems: Spend Gems to activate Blessing Boost, which lasts for up to 4 hours.
Purchase Auto Blessing Pack: Permanently activate blessing bonuses to increase game earnings.
