ArchLoot

What is ArchLoot?

ArchLoot is a role-playing game built around monsters that players assemble from parts, launched in 2022 as a user-generated content game with loot-style composability. Every monster is put together from NFT body parts that players own, and parts can be changed, recombined or edited at any time, with each change recorded on-chain. The team reports around 40 staff across several continents and backing from Binance NFT, FBG Capital and YGG SEA, among others.

How to play

You start by assembling a monster. Parts come in five kinds: torso, head, upper limb, lower limb and accessory. The torso is required and the rest attach to it, and in the evolution screen you can stretch, scale and place parts anywhere on the body. Parts have four rarities, common, rare, epic and legendary, with one to four attributes, and some carry special skills; a monster can hold any number of skills but activates up to three in battle. Parts can be strengthened with materials or genetically recombined to raise their rarity.

Play covers dungeon PvE, solo PvP, Homeland defence and clan wars, plus a Battle Royale mode. PvP uses hidden rankings and blind matchups in which every player draws from the same set of attribute bonuses, so skill and positioning decide fights. A free hunting mode is open to all, while a hunting licence or monthly pass (Adventurer, Goblin and Collector Pass) adds richer rewards and chests of materials, gold, potions and gear.

Tokens and chains

ArchLoot uses two currencies: AL, the governance token with a total supply of 1 billion, and ALG, the in-game gold. AL is produced at the end of each season and paid out by ranking. It trades on Ethereum (contract 0x046BAd07658f3B6cAd9A396CFcbC1243AF452ec1), and the game's contracts and bridge also run on BNB Chain and opBNB. Monster parts can be forged into fully on-chain NFT cards and traded on the marketplace at app.archloot.com.

Platforms and the new direction

ArchLoot has a web app at app.archloot.com, an Android APK on its site and a Telegram mini app (t.me/Archlootbot). Since 2024 the team has been turning ArchLoot from a single game into a game traffic platform on Telegram, where players discover partner games through small tasks and earn points, NFTs and trial rewards. The whitepaper covers the gameplay, passes and tokenomics.

Is ArchLoot worth playing?

The monster editor is the standout feature and is free to try. With the team's focus now on the Telegram platform, start with the mini app and the free mode before buying parts, passes or AL.
