Aurory

Do you enjoy Japanese-style RPGs with competitive turn-based battles? Then Aurory is just for you! This free-to-play gaming platform features Seekers of Tokane—a roguelike adventure—and Aurory Tactics—a competitive PvP battler—where you collect and battle magical creatures called Nefties across stunning anime-inspired worlds on Solana and Arbitrum blockchains.

What is Aurory?

Aurory is a blockchain gaming platform developed by Aurory Project, founded by Yann Penno (Art Director, 14+ years industry experience) and Paul Vadillo. The studio employs nearly 70 team members collectively claiming over 400 years of AAA game development experience from companies like Ubisoft and EA. Launched in August 2021, Aurory achieved one of Solana’s most successful NFT sales, raising over 1 million SOL when 10,000 Aurorian NFTs sold out in 3 seconds.

The platform expanded to Epic Games Store in 2023, exposing the game to mainstream audiences. Aurory operates on both Solana (homebase) and Arbitrum blockchains through SyncSpace technology enabling cross-chain asset transfers. This dual-blockchain approach taps into Ethereum ecosystem users while maintaining Solana’s speed—thousands of transactions per second with minimal fees.

Aurory’s visual style draws inspiration from Disney and Studio Ghibli animation, featuring dreamlike 2D hand-drawn artwork set across futuristic worlds Antik and Tokané. The platform currently hosts two playable games in active alpha development with live-ops updates: Seekers of Tokane (PvE) and Aurory Tactics (PvP).

How Does Aurory Work?

Seekers of Tokane delivers roguelike JRPG gameplay where you explore Tokané, complete quests, discover lost relics, and engage in “Blitz” turn-based combat against enemies. The adventure emphasizes narrative progression, character leveling, and Neftie collection through PvE encounters. Each Neftie species features unique abilities ranging from strength-focused damage dealers to team support, defense, and sabotage specialists.

Aurory Tactics provides competitive PvP timeline-based battles. You build teams of three Nefties and compete against opponents to climb leaderboards for rewards and glory. Strategic depth comes from understanding Neftie ability synergies, timing attacks within the timeline system, and countering opponent strategies. The game draws mechanical inspiration from League of Legends, Pokémon, and Magic: The Gathering.

Combat runs at 60 FPS across all platforms including mobile. Summer 2024 development focused on mobile optimization for Solana Saga phones and iOS/Android compliance, refactoring desktop controls for touch interfaces while maintaining ergonomic comfort. The team worked with Solana Mobile to ensure compatibility across Saga1 and Saga2 devices.

SyncSpace technology revolutionizes onboarding by eliminating wallet requirements. Players connect Twitter, Discord, Facebook, or Google accounts to start playing immediately and earning rewards. This removes blockchain complexity while maintaining true asset ownership—earned items automatically sync to wallets when players choose to claim them.

Digital Collectibles in Aurory

AURY is the native utility token with 100 million fixed supply. AURY functions as in-game currency, hatching eggs for Nefties, land sales, sending Aurorians on Expeditions, and governance. Trade on Solana via KuCoin, Huobi, and Orca; Arbitrum via Camelot.

The 10,000 Aurorian NFT collection serves as playable avatars with in-game perks. Early supporters received exclusive alpha/beta access. Nefties exist as NFTs with unique stat sets influencing battle performance, tradable on the Aurory marketplace.

The marketplace supports buying, selling, and auctioning in-game assets. Asset values fluctuate based on demand, rarity, and competitive utility. SyncSpace enables asset movement between Solana and Arbitrum without technical blockchain knowledge.
