## Gameplay Components

The D.G.Verse is a Metaverse of social online interaction and games in Panterra, a world created by the moth Goddess Gaea, a parallel world in which two dominant species coexist – D.G.Pals and humans. As part of the tradition, D.G.Pals and their human explorers first begin to bond in the New World Programme, thereafter, embarking on their journey of discovery.

There are various worlds to experience and explore in the D.G.Verse, each with its own unique elements to make them fun and engaging so that you can compete,  level up, and earn token rewards.

This is where it all starts, where you can incubate your egg. Several different egg types will determine the kind of baby Pal you will get. Your Pal will go through a 5-day growing stage before maturing into one of the six different Prime forms of your Pal. Once this process is complete, you can mint your NFT pal and begin the journey through the game’s ecosystem which is laid out as an Evolution Tree so that you can see the progress of your Pals.

D.G.Pals runs on idle mechanics to enable the growth of your NFT. You can raise up to 10 D.G Pals at the same time and you will be updated about their activities through a daily journal. 
As part of your pet’s evolution, there are several milestones they will need to accomplish, such as visiting particular locations around the New World island. 
 
As your D.G.Pals grow, they increase their stats from events that happen along the journey. Once they reach full maturity, they will develop one out of 26 possible personalities based on their daily activities. This gives each NFT a unique combination of traits made up of their prime form, stats, and personality. 

#### **D.G.P: Legends**

This belongs to the tradition of Panterra where D.G.Pals enter into combat and become Legends. 

Select five of your D.G.Pals to form a team to participate in the battle arena and fight your way to the top by strategizing your defense teams and attacks. Based on their egg type and stats, each NFT will have different skills that will affect their performance during battle. 

You can optimize the battle performance of your D.G.Pals by increasing their Core Stats. This can be done by equipping them with items such as **weapon, helm, garb, boots** and **ring*.* In addition, you can also form or join Clans to play with fellow gamers to share knowledge and experiences with like-minded players and compete for a spot on the Top Clans leaderboards. These knowledge and experience could come in handy in the heat of battles and help you rise up the ranks in the leaderboards.

D.G.Pals

These are NFTs that attach to the main character NFTs to enhance abilities and stats. Kind of a Diablo style equipment and weapon experience for the player. Equipment can be collected in sets which at the moment do not have added benefits. 

As mentioned in the How to Play section, there are 5 types of Equipment NFTs namely helm, garb, weapon, boots, accessory. These Equipment NFTs can be attached to each character subject to the conditional limit of 1 item for each type of equipment. Each Equipment NFT has a primary and secondary stat buff. Collectively, both these buffs help boost the existing stats for the different categories of Strength (Str), Agility (Agi), Intellect (Int) and Dexterity (Dex). Higher stats would translate into improved performance during combat. 




### Primary NFTs
The primary NFTs are cute Pokémon-like characters that are used to access the D.G.Pals metaverse. Owning an NFT will allow you to experience all the game modes available. One of the most exciting facts about these cute NFT warriors is that D.G.Pals are uniquely designed to be interoperable! In the future, this will enable them to be played in a variety of games both in and out of the D.G.Verse.

These adorable NFT characters go through 5 different growth stages from Baby, Child, Youth, Adult, to Prime forms. They take five days to mature, during which you will be able to collect $OPL. Once they reach maturity i.e enters into Prime form, you will be able to mint your D.G.Pals NFT at the cost of 800 $OPL (+ gas fees). 

Armed with your D.G Pals NFT, you would be able to participate in games across the D.G.Verse ecosystem. With this multi-game model, as different games come to the market, additional forms of utility will be implemented, which will increase the value of the NFTs and tokens.

There are several different mechanisms assigned to the NFTs. While all NFTs grant access to the D.G.Pals metaverse, the Genesis and Limited Edition NFTs comes with extra features as they give the owners daily and weekly rewards in the form of D.G.Eggs, D.G.Pal NFTs and $OPL,
