Jesus is resourceful, sly and incredibly loyal to his friends. His morality and humanity helped restore a small sliver of civilization to the broken world – a compassion that strengthened all the survivors around him.

The crafting event just started a few days ago. Plenty of time left to manufacture your empire. How high will you climb the leaderboards?
An empire doesn’t build itself… get out there and get crafting!
Survive and Rebuild

Hey all! Let’s take a break from our meet the team entries to chat a bit about crafting.
Yes, there is a reason you are collecting all those resources in V0.5! It’s not just about who has the biggest pile of wood and stone.
The Crafting Hall
First we’ll take a look at our crafting space. Our little friends needed a place to put all their trinkets together so we built them a crafting hall. Unlike fantasy games with a “Ye Olde Blacksmithy”, we went a bit more modern with 3D printing machines. We figured that if VOX can have teleportation tech, 3D printing seemed like the way to go.
We have a new friend that lives here–Nuts McBolty– who will help players with the crafting process, overseeing any VOX or ProtoVOX that are spending their time here.
Why build a 3d environment for crafting? Well, we needed to start testing out crafting on landscape for V2. Being a small team we needed to do some R&D work around that, so we might as well combine it with the crafting development that was already happening. This allows part of the team to work out the 3D aspects for the next phase of the project– creating buildings and decoration– without affecting the current development of crafting.
Crafting at its Core for Project Cerberus
In short, crafting is the ability to create items and eventually rooms, decorations and more!
Each Account will have a crafting button available in the Main Map UI that opens the players 3D Print Farm.
1 Printing Station will initially be unlocked for each account.
Additional Printing Stations will be available to unlock.
Each station will have a level from 1-5.
Each station can craft 1 recipe at a time.
A worker slot will require that 1 worker is equipped in order for the Printing Station to function.
Those are the rules, so what can I make? For version 1, the list is limited, and we need your help to make sure the process works before we open up the catalog. Over time we will add more and more items to craft over time– some you can learn, some you can get as rewards and some you can purchase through the store. We will talk about the store in a later dev blog.
With the game’s initial crafting system, you’ll have the ability to craft everything from powerups to more advanced crafting parts and even some surprises.
So How Do I Craft?
First you go to the 3D room and Select a printer and add a VOX…
Select a recipe…
Print!
Collect!
It’s that simple!
Two other systems fold directly into crafting: The store (buy items needed for crafting)
and account leveling, which will allow players to unlock more advanced recipes.
We will talk about those features in a future blog real soon! – The VOX Populi
The game has begun, legends! Have you taken your seat at the table?
Legends Reborn is not a complicated game to jump into… you can grab one of the pre-made decks and be having a blast at the tables right away after starting up the game for the first time.
That having been said, there’s a lot of nuance to deck building for those who like to dig in deeper and grow their strategic chops. No one controls the hand you’re dealt… but you can control what goes into your deck.
Calling All First-Time Deck Crafters!
We recognize this may be a review for some of the legends out there. Don’t worry, higher level classes are on the way!
This will not do! We want to take a quick opportunity to walk folks through the basics before we dive deeper into strategy.
If you haven’t played Legends Reborn much yet, but are ready to dive into deck building tactics, read on to learn how to craft your first decks!
Choosing Your Deck
From the main menu, you can select “Deck Editor” to hop right into refining your deck. You’ll notice that there are some preset selections in place. These are great starting points, and you should totally play around with these to get a feel for the style you like to play.
Once you’re ready to start your own destiny… choose to create a new deck and start lining up your strategy!
If you don’t have any cards, no need to worry! There are always time-limited cards available, and you can grab a free daily pack every day to pad your reserves!
Grab these free packs each day from the “Shop” on the main menu.
Deck Building Basics
Every deck starts with a Hero. This is you… the player of the card game. Not only are you choosing whose skin you’re playing behind, but you’re choosing an overarching theme for your deck.
Each Hero Card comes with five cards. These are special Hero-specific actions that you can take at critical moments throughout the match. They’ll often be game-changing if played right, so choose a Hero based on what you think will combo well with the deck you’re hoping to build.
After you select a Hero, it’s on to Creatures. In every deck you get six Creatures. Their stats will determine how your deck plays, so pay attention to which roles work out better for you so you can adapt in the future.
After Creatures, you’ll choose six Action Cards for each Creature in your deck. These Action Cards will be selected from a pool based on that creature’s combat role. These Action Cards are what you will draw from each time your Creatures attack.
You want to choose Action Cards that synergize with each other, but also ones that complement several of your Creatures if possible. Remember, you never know what order you’ll draw cards in. You want as many opportunities to win as possible!
Refining and Improving
Once you’ve selected all your cards, name your brand new deck and you can get to playing! You can click “Summary” from the deck builder menu to get an overview of your deck that you just made.
This summary will show you all your Creatures and you Hero, but crucially will let you quickly reference your Mana Curve. Take note of this. If you ever find yourself with too many high mana cards to play, you may need to switch out for some lower cost cards. Likewise, if you find yourself with just too much mana and no cards, then you probably need to get some higher cost Actions in there.
Don’t be worried if you don’t have too many choices the first time. Time limited free cards swap out frequently, so you can experiment with a lot of different cards over time. As you play, you’ll unlock more cards and also be able to pick up that free pack every day. Before you know it, you’ll not only have a lot of cards to choose from, but know how to use them all!
As we said above, we’ll be back later with some more advanced strategy – but get in and give building a deck a try today!
If you’ve had experience with TCG deck building before, you know how engaging and fun the strategic customization can be. If you haven’t… well, you’re missing out! Luckily for you, Legends Reborn is free to hop into right now!
Gala Film is thrilled to announce an exciting upcoming feature called “Film Boosts,” launching alongside the creation of the $FILM token on GalaChain. This innovative addition to our platform will empower fans to play a crucial role in advancing and promoting their favorite films, creating a deeper connection between artists and their supporters.
What are Film Boosts?
Film Boosts offer an unprecedented way for fans to support and promote their cherished films using the $FILM token. By holding $FILM against a specific film title, fans can elevate the film’s level within the Gala Film ecosystem. This elevation enhances the “watching weight multiplier” of the film’s moments and unlocks exciting “level ups.”
Benefits for Artists and Fans
The Film Boosts system offers dual benefits:
For Artists: As films climb through various levels, they unlock significant opportunities and perks. For instance, reaching level 10 could grant a feature on the platform’s homepage, while level 20 might initiate an expanded marketing campaign. Film producers, actors and cast members can reward their most dedicated fans with exclusive benefits such as discounts on products, access to limited edition merchandise or even opportunities for personal meet-and-greets.
For Fans: This system incentivizes deeper engagement, allowing fans to receive unique perks and a closer connection with the artists they support. Locking tokens against a film provides on-chain proof of dedication, enabling artists to independently recognize and reward their most loyal supporters without centralized control.
Boosting, Not Staking
Unlike traditional staking mechanisms that yield financial returns, Film Boosts focus on enhancing fan experience and engagement for the benefit of the entire ecosystem. This decentralized approach empowers artists to directly interact with and appreciate their fans, fostering a vibrant and supportive community within the Gala Film ecosystem.
With the introduction of Film Boosts, Gala Film continues to innovate, creating a dynamic and interactive platform for filmmakers and fans alike. Stay tuned for more updates as we get closer to the launch of this exciting feature and the $FILM token on GalaChain.
