Tycoon

Tycoon is a fully on-chain, multiplayer strategy game that brings the iconic Monopoly experience to the Mantle Network, blending nostalgic board-game depth with true blockchain ownership, transparent economics, and verifiable gameplay.Players roll dice, acquire properties, build empires, collect rent, trade assets, and strategically bankrupt opponents all while every financial interaction (stakes, rewards, collectibles) is secured and executed through smart contracts on Mantle.Thanks to Mantle's ultra-low gas fees and fast finality, players enjoy frictionless real-time moves, frequent perk activations, and affordable micro-staked games without compromising Ethereum-grade security.
Core Features & Gameplay

• Multiplayer Modes — Public lobbies, private rooms (2–8 players), and risk-free AI practice mode

• Flexible Economy — Optional USDC staking for real prize pools or free-to-play for fun & skill-building

• Automated Prize Distribution — Smart contract handles payouts:
  50% → 1st place, 30% → 2nd, 20% → 3rd, 5% platform fee
  Consolation vouchers for all participants

• Strategic Collectibles (ERC-1155) — Burnable power-ups offering game-changing advantages:
  • Extra turns • Rent shields • Get-out-of-jail-free • Teleportation
  • Exact dice control • Property discounts • Tiered cash boosts (10–250)

• Persistent Ownership — Collectibles, vouchers (redeemable for TYC tokens), commemorative ERC-721 NFTs, player stats, and achievements live forever on-chain

• Pure Skill Emphasis — Deep resource management, tactical trading, and long-term strategy determine winners — no hidden RNG beyond verifiable dice rolls

Technical Architecture & Mantle Utilization

• Smart Contracts (Solidity, deployed & verified on Mantle mainnet):

  • Tycoon Game Engine: 0x7346750357c5b39d42D6beaaE918349E3D5c5381

  • Reward System (ERC-1155): 0x005034825205c3B571a5451F8C50662ee7d6D3F0

  • TYC Reward Token (ERC-20): 0x721457558D9B7643e15189C036C3f704d3b878f8
    Leverages OpenZeppelin libraries, reentrancy protection, and pausability for production-grade security.

• Hybrid Design — Off-chain backend (Node.js + Express + Socket.io) for real-time coordination, turn management & UI sync + on-chain layer for all value flows and final state settlement.

• Modern Frontend — Next.js, React, TypeScript, Tailwind, Framer Motion, Reown AppKit + Wagmi/Viem for seamless Mantle wallet integration (MetaMask, Rainbow, etc.).

Mantle's modular L2 architecture enables scalable real-time multiplayer experiences while keeping costs minimal perfect for frequent in-game actions, collectible minting/burning, and prize settlements.
Why Tycoon Stands Out for Mantle

• Demonstrates real utility of Mantle for GameFi: nostalgic IP + true asset ownership + micro-economy

• Brings accessible Web3 gaming to broad audiences with intuitive UX and low-friction onboarding

• Builds long-term engagement through persistent collectibles, leaderboards, and verifiable achievements

• Showcases Mantle's advantages in cost, speed, and developer-friendliness compared to L1 alternatives
