I’ve been building Dungeons & Caravans — a browser RPG on Solana. No download,
runs in a tab.
The idea I couldn’t shake: in most RPGs, killing the monster is the whole game.
I wanted the loot to be worthless until you actually moved it somewhere and sold it.
So the loop is:
– Run expeditions in one of five zones (each gated by level) and haul back materials
– Feed those materials to the blacksmith to push gear from +1 up to +9 — every
attempt can fail
– Load a caravan and pick a trade route. Short route: 30 minutes, tiny payout,
no risk. Long route: 4 hours, ~8x the payout, and a 2.5% chance bandits take
the whole thing.
Three classes, assigned on-chain when you mint rather than picked. Warrior is
common, Thief rare, Merchant legendary (500 of 10,000) — and the Merchant is
genuinely bad at fighting but runs 4x the caravans and buys/sells at much better
rates. Building the game around a class that can’t fight was the most fun part.
Everything is timer-gated on purpose — energy refills 1/hour, caravan trips
1/12h. It’s built to be checked a few times a day, not grinded for six hours.
Happy to answer anything about the economy or the on-chain side.
