## (1) How to play The Harvest

### (a) Storyline
Players arrive on the planet O'Ree-Jin in a spaceship and are placed in one of four separate bases scattered around the surface. The objective of the game is to gather as much of the Essence of Life as possible, fighting in teams of 3 against each other. The team with the most essence collected after 10 minutes will win.

### (b) Choosing a Hero
Upon arriving on the planet, players will select a hero to play as. Each hero has their own unique abilities and strengths, such as Alith the Truthsayer, Duke the Blitzer, Kira the Guardian, and Sahad the Hunter. Players will then begin the game at their assigned base, along with two other teammates.

#### (1) Alith, the Truthsayer
- **Truthmakers (a dual shotgun)**

Lifesteal - steal the opponent’s health by damaging them 

- **Dash**

Alith swiftly disperses herself a few meters in her direction. Her dash power may be stored up to three times, and she can replenish it periodically.


- **Quantum Blade**

The boomerang blade Alith throws penetrates through foes and does damage to each enemy it strikes. Alith can teleport back to the location of the current blade by using the power once more.

#### (2) Duke, the Blitzer

- **Dah’Bûm (a rocket launcher)**

Explosive Ordinance - Duke's rockets have a large area of damage.

- **Jetpack**

Duke turns on his jetpack and launches himself into the air. The jetpack charges every few seconds and may store up to three charges at a time.

- **Power Dive**

Opponents in the vicinity are damaged and stunned when Duke crashes into the earth below. Depending on the starting height, the damage inflicted increases.

#### (3)  Kira, the Guardian

- **Light Needler (a submachine gun)**

Overwhelming Barrage - Affected enemies become silenced and are unable to use abilities while Kira deals numerous hits to them. 

- **Luminic Projection**

Kira casts a forward-moving image of herself. Activate it once more and you can switch position with the projection. When the projection vanishes, it explodes, causing damage and stunning enemies in the surrounding area.

- **Chromatic Barrier**

In order to stop incoming harm, Kira places a BARRIER on both herself and an ally. Kira and her ally will be healed if the barrier breaks gradually.

#### (4) Sahad, the Hunter

**Mushrat (a sniper rifle)**

Scoped Rifle - Sahad can hunt his prey using the scope on his rifle, gaining even more accuracy as he is able to zoom in.

**Hook**

Sahad throws a hook in the direction of his intended target. He is immediately pulled toward anything if the hook makes a connection with it. The opponent gets stunned if he hooks them.

**Tactical Retreat**

In order to increase his mobility, Sahad casts a trap in front of him and lunges backward. Sahad and his companions may see enemies caught in the trap as they become rooted and visible from across barriers.

## (2) Gameplay
The game is based on team play, with elements of shooting, mobility, and using heroes' abilities to achieve objectives such as defending, attacking, capturing bases, and killing enemies. The map is symmetrical, with geographically similar terrain and the same placement of critical game features such as harvesting points.

### (a) The Map

The terrain is symmetrical, both geographically and in terms of the placement of critical game features like harvesting points. Because each hero arrives on the planet in a Spaceship, and the squad randomly starts in one of the bases situated at each corner of the globe. 

A symmetric map implies that everything that happens is determined by the actions of each side rather than being a random circumstance.

![image3.png](https://prod-cms-assets.avocadodao.io/image3_9b33717e54.png)

Each team's bases serve as their primary storage facilities. The essence of the entire team is kept in the base, and the total amount is published openly in the order of the essence obtained. There are various portals scattered across the area that allow players to instantly teleport to the map's center. Monsters will appear in various regions of the battlefield, and players who slay those bosses will get large amounts of the essence as a reward.

As shown in the preceding map graphic, there are several harvesting stations (hot spots) scattered over the field (statically on a fixed placement established by the Layout) that contain an essence extractor. Because extractors have a finite pool of essence, players standing near the radius of the impact will collect that essence until it is depleted.


Upon defeating the enemy hero, that essence will not be stripped from the dead opponent; rather, it will be added to the player who conducted the killing. 

Simply put, if the player kills an opponent, he will obtain the essence of the deceased.

Killing Enemy Heroes (Source: theharvestgame.com) 

The base is where the essence of the team is kept. As a result, teams can attack other bases and take the essence of other teams. If a player approaches an enemy base, he will begin harvesting their essence at a certain speed.

The speed at which they steal increases as more members of the same team steal the essence (the same way as the harvesters). The phrase "Another team is snatching your base" is used by the game to inform teams when their bases are being taken.

Talk about thrilling… 


Monsters will spawn at various locations around the map.

As a reward for defeating such bosses, players will gain substantial amounts of essence, and other awards are being considered for the future. For instance, defeating bosses can enable players to retrieve abandoned cards.

### (b) End Goal
The ultimate goal of the game is to harvest as much of the Essence of Life as possible, as this is the key to winning the game. The Essence is important as it allows players to gain an advantage over their opponents and ultimately secure victory.
## (4) DeQuest x The Harvest Partnership
Due to a record-breaking 20k members in discord, as well as a 600k NFT sale, The Harvest decided to give back to its community by partnering with DeQuest. 

Players may complete community-driven tasks on the DeQuest website and get rewards. Players who successfully complete the missions will get Harvest Points, which can then be redeemed for prizes in the platform's store. You may make an immediate purchase or enter Lucky Draws for in-game items with your Harvest Points.

Players may also start earning points to exchange for NFT Ability Cards, Discord positions, whitelists for upcoming sales, and much more by completing one-time, weekly, and daily objectives on The Harvest page.

This might serve as the basis for their brand-new ambassador program, where Meme Lords, Content Creators, Community Managers, Playtest Coordinators, and others can be honored and rewarded for their contributions to The Harvest.

### (4) BAB Token

For the time being,  A Web3 invention, Soulbound tokens, are a reflection of the bona fides of its owner and, as their name implies, are non-transferable, non-financialized, and exclusive assets. These tokens are irrevocably attached to the user or wallet in which they are stored, unlike other cryptocurrencies that may be moved between wallets. One of the earliest GameFi projects that employ such an invention is none other than The Harvest. Specifically, they’ll be utilizing Binance Account Bound (BAB) tokens as one of their tokenomics. 

These are Binance-produced Soulbound Tokens that were distributed via the BNB Smart Chain. As a Soulbound token, BAB tokens can only be minted by Binance users who have completed KYC completely, and as a result, its holder is the only one who can reject or revoke them.

Third-party protocols may leverage and validate the development of BAB as a type of identity verification for a variety of applications. Players that implement BAB tokens will receive a special Discord role dubbed "Soulbound Explorers" as part of The Harvest's blockchain layer, granting them access to exclusive activities and gifts, including a special skin and battle tag.

_At the time of writing, the “Soulbound Explorers” role and exclusive skin cannot be claimed anymore (the event ended in September 2022)_

A very interesting feature of NFT Companion cards is that they provide the player with a minion that they can utilize in-game to aid them with unique skills and entertaining interactions.


Battle tags are incredible tools for actual players, and customization is essential to becoming noticed as one of the greatest!


Players employ unique character-related emotes to "tilt" their foes or evaluate their friends since communication is always the key to a great game.



**(a) Rarities in Ability Cards**

- The **Common Cards** are non-NFT and free to play. Players will be able to upgrade them to Uncommon NFTs after they hit the level cap (lvl 10).

Also available are the Shiny Cards, which are scarce and difficult to locate. These cards will include distinctive artwork that matches the skin tone of the Hero. Players will also be capable of choosing the main attribute that will be boosted by that card in addition to the cosmetics.

The rarities of Shiny Cards are as follows: 4,000 Shiny Rare, 1,200 Shiny Epic, and 600 Shiny Legendary.
