Season One of The Beacon Chain Game Goes Live, A Comprehensive Guide to the 7.7 Million BCN Prize Pool and Chest Mechanics
"The Beacon" Season 1 is now live with a 7.7 million BCN prize pool. This guide provides a tutorial and gameplay strategies. To start, players must sign in via a Web3 wallet at the official app, download the game via the Epic Store for optimal experience, and control their character using WASD keys. An optional $19.99 "Starter Pack" provides 2000 Glint and premium chests.
Gameplay currently offers two main paths. First, the "Dungeon" (up from spawn) costs 20 Stamina per run to earn Shadow Shards, which exchange for Umbra Chests. Second, "Kraken Klash" (right from spawn) is a betting mini-game using Goblin Tokens to guess correct tiles for rewards.
Rewards consist of Cosmetics and BCN tokens. Free players receive account-bound cosmetics, while Starter Pack purchasers ("Premium" players) receive tradable NFT cosmetics. The season features three chest types:
1. **Umbra Chests** (from Shadow Shards): Contain cosmetics and small BCN amounts (Premium only).
2. **Kraken Chests** (from Goblin Tokens): Contain exclusive cosmetics and larger BCN amounts (Premium only).
3. **Glint Chests** (from Glint, premium currency): Contain exclusive cosmetics and the largest BCN amounts (Premium only).
Each chest type (Umbra, Kraken, Glint) has detailed rarity probabilities (Common, Rare, Epic, Legendary) and BCN reward distributions listed for free and premium versions.
The four in-game currencies are: Shadow Shards, Goblin Tokens, Glint, and BCN. A stable earning method is farming dungeons for Shadow Shards to exchange for Umbra Chests. Kraken Klash is a higher-risk, higher-reward option using Goblin Tokens.
