What is Step Hero and how it works
Step Hero is another card game that surfs the new wave of blockchain games, all items and characters in the game are represented by unique tokens (NFTs) that can be traded on an open market.
The ecosystem is comprised of a fantasy-themed RPG, a cross-chain NFT marketplace (BSC and Polygon), collectibles, and the STEP and HERO tokens.
The story behind the RPG is based on a battle between Lucifer's shadow army and the heroes led by the archangel Gabriel. Players control heroes and participate in missions to defeat their enemies and earn money in STEP tokens.
In addition to earning STEP tokens by performing missions, players can also opt for HERO staking to earn points or even provide liquidity to pools like HERO-BNB LP at the decentralized brokerage PancakeSwap.
According to the roadmap on the official website , the crypto-game will also feature a PvP (player versus player) arena battle mode. In this mode, users will be able to earn even more money by winning open tournaments.
