Everything You Need to Know!

The planet calls for adventurers, and Season 3 of our odyssey is about to take off! With a compact 45-day adventure ahead, starting on March 10th at 6 PM UTC, we’re dialing up the excitement and prizes, offering a $2,500 USD prize pool, exclusive $AFG rewards, and NFTs. Entry is still absolutely free and so is the game!

Free to Play, with a Freemium Twist

Jumping into our game doesn’t cost a thing, making it easy for anyone to start their adventure. However, to unlock specific features and really get the most out of your experience, consider getting into the NFT side of things. For instance, you’ll need a land NFT to kick off your crafting journey.

Why the Change?

Our community spoke, and we listened. After a poll, it was clear: a shorter season was in high demand. So, we’ve adjusted the duration to 45 days without diluting your potential earnings. Play across two seasons, and you could earn just as much as you would have in the longer 90-day tournaments.

It’s not just about the placement anymore! This season introduces a new way to earn based on your overall AP. The top 30 players will share the $2,500 prize pool proportionate to the AP they’ve generated.

Your potential earnings are calculated using a straightforward formula: we divide the total prize pool in USD by the sum of AP held by the top 30 players. Then, we multiply this value by your AP to determine your share in USD.

Basically, it’s: (Prize Pool in USD / Total AP of Top 30) x Your AP = Your Earnings in USD

Live Leaderboard: Know Your Earnings in Real-Time

A new feature this season is the live leaderboard available on the website, showing you exactly how much you would earn if the tournament ended at that moment. It reflects the current value of AP and your corresponding reward based on your AP amount!

Top Performers’ Bounty: Besides the WAXP prizes, the top achievers will get HUGE $AFG rewards and trophy NTTs:

1st Place: 100K $AFG + Trophy NTT

A Note on Fair Play

We’re serious about keeping the game fun and fair for everyone. That’s why we have strict rules against multi-accounting and botting. Anyone caught breaking these rules will be disqualified from the tournament and lose any potential rewards. For full details, please review our rules!

This season is designed to reward both competitive and casual players, with plenty of opportunities to earn and enjoy. Whether you’re strategizing to climb the leaderboard or exploring the new combat features, there’s something for everyone in Season 3.

Aphelium: The Discord Planet Where You Play, Engage, Earn!

The game is based upon the development of sections of land on an unexplored planet somewhere in the universe. Within these sections players will find plenty of resources used to produce food, metals, items and buildings. All of which you can use to improve your very own land NFT!
