GameFi and SocialFi

An essential part of the WeRate ecosystem is that checking in and giving reviews is fun, engaging and social. Because blockchain technology enables this through GameFi and SocialFi, we can cater to the 3 positive player type categories defined by Richard Bartle:

• Achievers are all about credits and status. They want to be able to show their friends how they are progressing. They like to collect badges and put them on display. In WeRate we allow Bohemian leveling, gaining Wisdom, and even reaching the 🥇Gold Status. In the future, we will also allow badges and participation in global and local leaderboards to win awesome prizes.

• Explorers want to see new things and discover new secrets. They’re not as bothered about credits or prizes. For them, discovery is the prize. Thanks to WeRate, explorers can find new great bars, restaurants, and many other amazing venues. In these places, they can also earn more credits because they have not been there before.

• Socializers are the vast majority, constituting almost 80% of all people who play games. They experience fun in games through interaction with other players. In WeRate there are tons of different ways to interact with other users, such as upvoting and downvoting, meeting people at different places, following your favorite WeRate Influencers, etc... In our online community, you can also join groups that match your profile, and interests.
