What Is Rise of Defenders (RDR)?

Rise of Defenders is a play-to-earn game on BNB Chain that combines Tower Defense with RPG elements. The game focuses on building bases, recruiting troops, creating a kingdom, and interacting with other players around the world. Players can upgrade their heroes to prevent their base from being destroyed by attacking monsters.

Heroes in Rise of Defenders come as NFTs with unique fighting and defense skills. Players can utilize their heroes in different modes like campaign mode, tournament mode, and arena mode. They can also upgrade their heroes with mythical equipment that can be collected in the various game modes. In creating Rise of Defenders, the team was inspired by past RPG classics like Final Fantasy, Fire Emblem, Tactic Ogre, and AFK Arena.

In the Rise of Defenders roadmap, the team has released the game’s beta version and marketplace in the first quarter of 2022. From Q2/2022 onwards, Rise of Defenders will receive new campaign and tournament maps, continuous additions of new heroes, and updates to the game’s core gameplay modes.

Who Are the Founders of Rise of Defenders?

Rise of Defenders is built by Apero, a game design studio with several top 30 Google Play applications under its belt. Apero has generated over 15 million downloads across more than five million daily active users worldwide. The team is based in Vietnam and consists of more than 70 people with knowledge in blockchain, game design, marketing, and finance.

Apero is headed by Minh Pham Huy, a blockchain expert with over 11 years of experience in business and more than five years of experience in cryptocurrencies, technology, and e-commerce. He is backed up by a strong tech team, headed by CTO Luan Doan, a mobile app developer and software engineer with years of experience in tech development.

Furthermore, Rise of Defenders has attracted a strong set of investors, such as Interchain Ventures, Maven Capital, and dozens more.

What Makes Rise of Defenders Unique?

The game’s unique plot takes place on a mythical continent called Enotias, where players build their bases, recruit troops, and create their kingdoms. On Enotias, several different races lived together peacefully before that peace was disrupted by Orcs trying to displace the King of Althia. Players battle to restore peace in three different gameplay modes.

In the Campaign Mode, players battle on various maps against different enemies to collect rewards from loot boxes. These rewards come in the game’s RDG token or equipment. Players can advance to new levels and territories and battle increasingly difficult enemies to receive better rewards.

In the Tournament Mode, players combat each other with their teams of heroes. Tournaments are organized in seasons, with each season being one week long. After a season is over, players receive their points and rewards and are promoted or relegated depending on their performance. Players can conquer a total of eight ranks with their respective prizes.

The final gameplay mode is the Arena Mode, which is scheduled to be released in summer 2022. Players will be able to field up to three heroes in the battle against other players in a turn-based, three-on-three player-versus-player mode. A player wins when the opponent’s heroes are destroyed, or the match timer runs out. In the latter case, the player with the highest percentage of remaining HP wins. Players will be ranked based on their performance in an ELO-based ranking system.

Although Rise of Defenders is a tactics-heavy game, it is accessible even to inexperienced players because of the automated fighting mechanics. Players can easily assemble a basic team to start competing in campaigns and tournaments.

Furthermore, players will earn RDG tokens by engaging in the various gameplay modes. They can spend these on premium equipment for their heroes (in the form of NFTs) or buy additional premium heroes to upgrade their chances of success in the game. Players can also sell their NFT assets on the game’s marketplace.
