what's The Lost Glitches?
The Lost Glitches is a blockchain-based trading card game (TCG) set in a cyberpunk universe where players summon glitches—digital anomalies—as cards to battle opponents. Built on Ethereum's Immutable-X layer-2 for scalable NFT transactions, it combines RPG progression with strategic deckbuilding, allowing players to collect, trade, and evolve cards as NFTs. The game emphasizes techno-optimism, with factions like Curators Maxima drawing from themes of tribalism and ecological management, enabling playstyles inspired by DDoS attacks and viral propagation. Gameplay revolves around head-to-head PvP matches requiring clever resource management, sacrifice mechanics, and deck construction to climb ladders and compete in tournaments. Players can mint booster packs containing rare cards, stake NFTs for $LOST token rewards, and participate in seasonal challenges for exclusive cosmetics like sleeves and avatars. The core loop integrates blockchain for true ownership of assets, with free-to-play accessibility on platforms like Steam and Epic Games Store, while crypto features enhance earning and trading. The project has evolved through multiple card sets, such as "Memories," and includes dynamic systems like daily quests and finisher animations to keep engagement high. Funded by community mints and grants, it prioritizes sustainability in its Deep Sky Grid lore, where glitches fight to preserve ancient memories in a digital realm.
