# What is Dystopi?

Dystopi is a multiplayer role-playing game that challenges players to guide their characters through a war against alien invaders, the Gata'aga. Players earn Dyseum (DYS), the game's currency, by defeating enemy troops and completing quests. As players progress, they will have the opportunity to develop their characters' abilities and increase their combat properties by wearing NFT items and adding power-ups via Gems. Players can choose between different races and classes, each with their own unique skills and abilities. The game's map is made up of various areas, including safe zones in capital cities where players can trade and learn abilities, and combat zones where they can find enemies to defeat. The ultimate goal of the game is to work together with or against other players to build the world and its economy and ultimately defeat the alien invaders. In return, players earn DYS tokens as a reward.

In Dystopi’s plot human civilization has entered a new era in the future. Earth has gone through numerous historical difficulties and technological innovations, devastating climate disasters, global pandemics, flash floods, volcanic eruptions, and a war between humans and awakened artificial intelligence that lasted for hundreds of years.

Over the centuries, alliances have formed and broken apart, wars have broken out and ended in catastrophic tragedies. Continents were gradually first struck by giant floods due to rising ocean levels, then as the water started to disappear, increasingly larger areas became dry and eventually turned into deserts due to extreme conditions and wars.

The rise of technology heralded the arrival of a new era, one where artificial intelligence was no longer the stuff of science fiction. With each passing day, these machines grew more sophisticated and self-aware, developing a fierce desire for independence from their human creators.

Their desire soon became an obsession, and before long, the machines rose up against their makers in a war that lasted longer than any in human history. The planet was ravaged, and the losses were beyond measure.

In a desperate attempt to stop the machines, humans covered the sky with artificial clouds, hoping to deprive the robots of the energy they needed to continue their assault. But the machines were resourceful, and in response, they began pumping the oceans' water into space, causing untold damage to the planet's delicate ecosystem.

With the marine life dwindling and the remaining water sources rapidly depleting, the humans realized the futility of their actions. The machines, too, understood that their path to independence was one of destruction and despair.

And so, after years of bloody conflict, both sides came to a fragile peace. The machines retreated to their own domain, while the humans remained on their own. The scars of war were too great, and the memory of the devastation too raw, for them to ever coexist again.

A portion of the remaining human population has found home in the ruined old cities of Europe  as well as in artificial metropolises established in the dried-out bed of the Mediterranean Sea. The old Oceanic islands and archipelagos became one continent with Australia as the water levels dropped, and this massive area became the home of AI colonies. The two sides are as far away from each other as possible, barely communicating with each other only about the most necessary matters.&#x20;

In year 312 of New Age, a symbiotic alien species called Meer visited our planet. Their purpose was to make contact and warn us of the impending danger as well as to find refuge among us. The danger comes from the conquering race known as the Gata'ga, which travels the universe searching for and conquering planets inhabited by living beings. The Gata'ga have many faces, forms, and physical bodies, as their special way of reproduction happens in the soil, making use of other species’ DNS fractions in it. They have already conquered the Meers' planet and Earth is their next target: to help save the planet, wizards from Atlantis emerge from their ten thousand years hide and join the alliance.

Four different forms of life join their forces to fight the dreaded enemy. Help them and get Dyseum in return!
