Indie gaming studio Tentworks Interactive has announced its plan to launch its new game, City Block Builder, at the Pax East expo in the United States. Taking place on April 25, Pax East is an event dedicated to global gaming that allows developers and studios from across the world to network with one another while showcasing their work.
Alongside the launch of City Block Builder, Tentworks has said that it will debut its first NFT trading card collection. Interestingly, the trading cards will double as a means for owners to receive exclusive access to Tentwork's games and new features. In addition, those who buy the NFTs will be given the chance to chat with the company's game developers and attend in-house conferences.
"Unlike other NFTs where the user can see what they are buying, users will have to purchase and mint the NFT packs without knowing what card they will receive making it as exciting as the old Pokémon trading card game,” said Jayaditt Basani, CEO and founder of Tentworks Interactive.
