Pegaxy (PGX) is a free-to-play mech-horse racing game built on blockchain. As a play-to-earn metaverse Pegaxy allows users to create real-world value through in-game activity.
The game implements a dual token economy based around the governance tokenPGX (Pegaxy Stone) and the utility token VIS (Vigorus). While PGX enables holders to influence decisions on the platform and profit through stacking, VIS serves as a main currency facilitating the commerce inside of the game.
During gameplay, users enter mythological creatures called Pega into player-versus-player (PvP) races and compete to gain monetary rewards. Out of the 12 participants in every race, the top 3 are given VIS tokens. Pega are available for players to buy, rent, sell and breed on the platform.
