First Paved tournament is nearing its end
Paved is one of my favorite onchain games right now. (partially cause I can play it on my own and no one can destroy my base)
The game is still early but they’re hosting their first tournament with a 2500 $LORDS prizepool right now players already completed over 500 games. (an avg. game takes about 20-25 minutes).
The game is simple, but beautiful, especially the voxel art is stunning and they have a fun soundtrack. I would urge you to try it out yourself.
