When Pokeom Go came out a couple of years ago I was very excited, it was like a dream come true. I wanted to play is so badly. Unfortunately my mobile cellphone was not powerful enough and could not support the game... At that time I had an iPad Air, the first model, and I tried once or twice to play the game with it. You could imagine that is not very safe to walk with a $400 iPad in the streets of Mexico so I gave up, to do this I also had to use my cellphone as a mobile hotspot to give data to the iPad.

Our roommate is a very big fan of Pokemon, she is level 36 and she plays daily. She has motivated m to try the game again and I have downloaded the app and started playing. At the moment we cannot make a lot of progress because we are not leaving the house, we are only going out to buy food and basic things. I have been playing and I cannot say that I am a big fan yet, but Marina has showed me many of the features that are in the game. It is very impressive how the game has evolved since I walked the streets holding an iPad.

All those cool features made me think the following:

Could it be possible to make a game like this one powered by the Hive Blockchain?

Obviously it would be very difficult or almost impossible that the game features Pokemons, but like in @splinterlands someone could create dozens of characters/monsters that could have NFTs features. Another thing is that it may be difficult to make the game as worldwide as Pokemon Go. But there could be other options to play more locally. What I mean is something like this: You start the game and it scans your area, it takes the game a some minutes to create a "playground" or a place where the monsters will spawn and then you go out there to catch or fight these monsters. Depending on your level, gear and other things you could receive common, rare, epic or legendary creatures.

This idea also came into my mind when Marina told me that it was possible to sell the Pokemon Go Accounts, but it was not possible to sell the items or the Pokemons by themselves. Pokemon Go is a centralized game and it is a selfish game, it is not rewarding it's users properly, they keep all the money. A decentralized Pokemon Go like game would have a great rewards system and would also take advantage of the NFTs and Tokenization system to make it a more enjoyable game.

I'm not a game developer and maybe this is a terrible idea, but I think that is time for Blockchain games to take a step forward, as I said. It doesn't have to be as complex as Pokemon Go, it can start scaling little by little. I believe that people would be interested in spending time in games where they can be rewarded.

Would you play a game like this one?

Let me know in the comments.
