ChainSlash is an idle action RPG that runs in a browser, with a Windows build offered alongside, built on Base, the Ethereum layer-2 incubated by Coinbase. It is not a game you sit and play: characters farm monsters, loot and levels on their own and keep progressing while you are logged off, so a session means checking in, spending what accumulated and adjusting gear before the next boss. PvP sits on top of that and is where competitive standing and the advertised crypto and NFT rewards are decided. The entry point is the strongest part.

## FAQ

**How do I start playing ChainSlash?**

Open the official ChainSlash site and launch the game in your browser or download the Windows client. The game is in alpha, so expect ongoing changes and occasional resets or balance updates.

**Do I need a crypto wallet or NFTs to play?**

You can start free without buying anything, but you will need a crypto wallet connected to Base to hold and trade the NFTs and token rewards the game issues. Progress and earnings are tied to that wallet rather than a traditional account.

**How do players earn in ChainSlash?**

Rewards come from competitive player-versus-player battles, which pay out in crypto and NFTs rather than from idle progress alone. Actual earnings depend on how you rank against other players and on current reward rates, which change during alpha.

**Do I have to be online for my character to progress?**

No. ChainSlash is an idle RPG, so characters keep getting stronger automatically while you are away. You mainly log in to collect progress, upgrade your character, and take part in PvP.

**Is ChainSlash still active and worth playing?**

It is in active alpha development, so the game is playable but unfinished and features may change. It suits players who want low-effort, hands-off progression with a competitive PvP layer, and less so anyone expecting a polished or stable economy right now.
