# How We Started

In 2022, our seasoned development team embarked on the journey to create The Cryptids Monster Mash amidst a booming era of Play-to-Earn (P2E) gaming. Motivated by the desire to pioneer a new standard in blockchain gaming, we set out to craft the first cross-chain Battle Royale game that seamlessly blends fun and competitiveness with substantial rewards for players.

We foresee the burgeoning popularity of Play-to-Earn (P2E) games in the coming years and aim to position The Cryptids Monster Mash as a trailblazer in this evolving space.

&#x20;We have secured a solid foundation for The Cryptids Monster Mash, ensuring a robust player base, genuine competition, and meaningful passive income opportunities for our token holders. We are committed to delivering an experience that transcends hype and delivers real value to our community.
