## Verdict

Vulcan Champions is a creature-raising game from Vulcan Forged, played in the browser on the VulcanX platform and paid for in PYR on the studio's own Elysium chain. You adopt a baby champion from one of eight species, feed it trait potions that each add 15 to a stat, kit it out in five gear slots and send it on timed adventures that fill an Evolution Bar. Twenty life stages lead to Legendary at level 50. The raising loop is the best part. Potions are locked to a species, evolving needs the right level, a full bar and an Evolution Potion, and a bond meter and mood mechanics give the pet some personality. Around it sit an asynchronous arena with stances, abilities and an ELO ladder, a five-chapter PvE campaign whose bosses drop chests, and weekly and all-time leaderboards. The catch is that nearly every action has a price in PYR: 20 to adopt, 3 per trait potion, 8 for Evolution Potions and
