Description:
NOR is a novel gaming platform offering free gameplay in a robust, competitive atmosphere. The team is also developing a rich metagame full of economic activity, allowing users to engage with the deep lore of the world of NOR.

Differentiator:

NOR’s approach is that winning matters. Consequently, losing is also impactful. In NOR’s games, when a user enters a tournament, they are risking everything they have achieved within the platform. If a user dies in gameplay, they don’t come back to life. Actual and permanent defeat endeavors to make gameplay more skill-based, intense, and meaningful.

Opportunity:
The gaming world has become very exploitative in recent years. It is filled with microtransactions, pay-to-win, and pay-to-play models, forcing gamers to pay a fee to progress in the game. NOR eliminates this with their free gameplay. They are reviving the narrative of playing video games for fun.
 
Customers:
NOR’s platform is engineered for crypto native individuals and gamers, both in the traditional and crypto gaming ecosystem.

Team:

Brooks Brown, NOR’s Creator, has more than 18 years of creative and strategic development experience in interactive content.
