A Beastie is a digital companion creature in . Beasties are the standard adult version before the final stage of evolution to a Beast, which can be minted for free as an NFT.
Beasties offer multiple in-game perks, and they will grow and evolve in different ways according to the food you give them.
Beasties appeared in the world through a wormhole machine at the Institute for Wormhole Studies, run by an eccentric scientist called Professor Crank. After they arrived, the Institute was rebranded as the Institute for the Study of Beasties.
Every player in Arc8 gets one egg at the start of each season, or when they first install the Arc8 application. This is the beginning of your Beastie journey. As you nurture and feed the egg, it evolves through various stages, ultimately becoming a Beast.
You can buy extra Beastie eggs in the in-app store, and if you want the fully evolved Beast NFT, you can purchase one on OpenSea.
These are the different evolutionary stages. The journey starts with an egg, which evolves into a Beastling. With further feeding, the Beastling becomes a Beastie. Finally, skilled gameplay can get you enough food to evolve it into a Beast, which can be minted into an NFT for free.
That means it's yours to own, use in Arc8 – or even sell!
Yes – most likely! Each evolution step brings more new features which increase the likelihood of your having something unique.
By the time it has reached the final stage of evolution (Level 16), there are over 100 million possible combinations, ranging from different shapes, colors, patterns, eyes, teeth, and props. The appearance is determined by what you feed it, so unless you have coincidentally fed it the exact same things as another player, you can be confident that it is the only one that looks like that.
You cannot feed or evolve a Beastie from a previous Season.
In the current Arc8 Season – Mocaverse Season, the variety ranges from cosmic apples and lunar bananas to the ultimate Moca Pineapple and Mocake.. Each food has its own properties, and some foods are worth more than others, determined by their rarity. The food your Beastie eats will affect the way it looks when it becomes a Beast NFT – the rarer the food you feed it, the more chance it will have a higher rarity when you mint it.
In order from most common to the rarest, here are the foods you can give your Beastie this Season:
Common Foods: Halftime Twist, Striker Sausage, Red Card Cupcake, Chill Out Champ, Orange Cupcake, Fizzball Soda
Uncommon Foods: Cupcake Kickoff, Doughnut Dribble, Pitch Cupcake, Pilsner Penalty
Rare Foods: Goalie Nachos, Goal Glaze Doughnut, Fries Kick
Legendary Foods: No Foul Lager, One Burger
Easy! As soon as your Beastie has evolved to its maximum level (Level 16), the option to mint it becomes available.
As soon as it’s ready, the newly minted Beast NFT will appear in your wallet, and you can take a look at its final form. From there, it’s up to you what to do next – keep using it in Arc8 to mine Luck and play games, keep it as part of a growing collection, or trade it on OpenSea.
There are 4 possible rarity levels a Beast can have, which are determined by the parts and props the Beast has, which in turn are determined by the food you have fed it. The rarity levels are:
Common
Uncommon
Rare
Legendary
Don’t worry, this is only for a short time. There is a cooldown period when a Beast arrives in a new wallet, and you will be able to play on the following day.
Beasties are tied to the season in which they're introduced. While they can be used to play and mine Luck in later Seasons, their evolution is bound to the season's duration. This means there is an element of gaming skill involved – players who do well in a given season will be able to evolve their Beastie to a Beast NFT.
Yes. However, keep in mind that your Beastie’s name is only for you to see – when you mint it into a Beast NFT, it will not have that name. Its name will be tied to the Season number and when it was minted.
