Game NFT Apeiron lands on Ronin to advance development
Game NFT Apeiron has officially announced its integration into the Ronin Chain on December 5, 2023. Ronin Chain, an EVM blockchain tailored for the Web3 gaming industry, is developed by Sky Mavis, the creator behind the renowned NFT game Axie Infinity.
Ronin optimizes game transactions to near-instant speed with minimal transaction fees, facilitating millions of in-game transactions simultaneously, making it a top choice for Web3 games.
What is Apeiron?
Apeiron is an NFT game inspired by classic strategy games like Populous, Black and White, and Spore, where players become rulers of mystical and diverse planets.
In your planets, creatures called Doods inhabit, which you can use for battles and exploration across the Apeiron Universe.
Players manage their planets, each with unique elements highlighting different regions. Doods evolve and coexist on your planet; the stronger they become, the more powerful you grow.
In-game, you can control multiple planets and even "breed" new ones in a process known as Celestial Conjunction. These new planets are rare NFTs that you can keep or sell on the market.
Upon reaching a certain number of Doods on your planet, you can summon an Avatar. Avatars allow you to customize strengths and weaknesses of your planet and complete quests to collect epic items.

- Game components
To start playing, acquire a planet. In Season 2, you'll receive one for free.
There are 15 prototype planets that you can crossbreed, each with unique elements like metal, wood, water, fire, and earth—combining two prototypes to create one.
Here are the 15 types of planets you can crossbreed:
Gigas - Earth
Leviathan - Water
Inferno - Fire
Tempest - Air
Archipelago - Islands
Volcanic - Dark
Karsts - Sky
Tundra - Fire and Water
Delta - Water vs. Air
Dunes - Desert
Mountainous - Mountain
Foresty - Nature
Wasteland - Fire vs. Earth vs. Air
Oasis - Water vs. Fire vs. Air
Normal - Random Fusion
When you start the game, you'll receive a small Dood community. Your task is to convert these Doods into disciples on your planet. Once you have enough Doods, you can summon Avatars, enabling you to participate in various game modes.
There are three types of Avatars: Fury, Wisdom, and Destiny, each with up to five innate skills—three card skills (C skills), class-dependent, and two passive skills (P skills), element-dependent.
Developed Doods will also serve various corresponding roles and possess skills to support Avatar gods in battle.
Each Dood has different stats, weapons, and skills across 12 roles: Warrior, Mage, Rogue, Bard, Hunter, Priest, Summoner, Dragoon, Knight, Berserker, Shaman, and Guardian. Command Doods will have a related skill card deck to supplement your Avatar's Battle Deck.
- Game modes
The game offers two main modes: PVP and PVE.
PVE: Use your Avatar god to venture to dungeons on other planets to defeat monsters and collect loot.
PVP: Engage in 1v1 battles using your fleet against other players, climb the leaderboards, and earn rewards based on your season rank.
