Independence goes hand in hand with empowering web3 tech, and celebrating that independence is especially important, no matter where you’re from and how you choose to live! We’re grateful that we can all find some Common Ground through gaming, especially thanks to the ownership and reward capabilities of GalaChain!
In honor of Independence on this day of US celebration, we are thrilled to announce a special addition to the Gala Games store: the Stars and Stripes Monument, a Legendary NFT item now available in limited supply. This exclusive item celebrates the spirit of freedom and offers a unique new benefit for Common Ground World players.
Stars and Stripes Monument
Price: $399.90 Availability: Only 250 units Release Date: July 4th, 2024, at 11am PT
The Stars and Stripes Monument is not just a symbol of celebration; it brings significant advantages to your gameplay. Placing this monument in your world reduces labor and building costs by 30%. Additionally, the freedom shines so bright that it will remove 1 Shade from a large area (radius 3) around it. This powerful combination has the potential to dramatically boost your standings in competitions.
