Despite massive attention and funding into the blockchain gaming sector, it has found relatively little success. Their weakness is likely due to the fact that while the blockchain tech underlying the games was good, the games themselves were not fun. The largest game in this category so far was Axie Infinity, which amounted to little more than a complicated tap-to-earn game.

Off the Grid stands out because the gameplay is just that much better than its predecessors. If you've played one of the popular battle royale games like Warzone or Fortnite, the general game loop will feel pretty similar. What's especially impressive is that the movement system is more advanced than any of the BR games we've played, allowing for some pretty crazy plays.

The activity on the secondary marketplace for in-game items will be especially interesting and will be a major indicator for the success of the GUN token. We've seen with Counter Strike how wild the demand for rare items can be (with some selling for hundreds of thousands), and that was done on a marketplace where users don't truly own the assets. Where could prices go if the items could be traded like the assets they really are?
