Introduction

1. Could you Guys please provide a quick self-introduction for the community?

Ans: Plant vs Undead (PvU) is a NFT game on Binance Smart Chain where your plants are also your real asset.

PvU main goals are: Free-to-play, Play-to-earn, and Competitive gaming:
1. Free-to-play: No initial-investment required. There are basic plants to start from zero.
2. Play-to-earn: All modes in PvU offer play-to-earn. NFT plants are stronger.
3. Competivive gaming: PvU main mode will be 1v1 where players compete on leaderboard. PvU is designed to reach esport standard. We are already working on creating a well balanced and anti-cheat system.

On the other hand, PvU keeps all the good qualities that blockchain gaming provide: marketplace, gamified staking, PvU tokens as in-game currency:
1. Marketplace: allow buy and sell plants/mother trees and other costume assets.
2. Gamified Staking: normal staking is boring. So, we are creating a web-based Farm game to simulate the feelings of a real gardener.
3. PvU Tokens: PvU tokens can be used in all modes/marketplace or sent directly in the game.

At the moment , our team consists of 12 core members and 6 other part-times

2.What are some of utlities of $PVU ? How do you think you stand out among the competitors if there are any?

Ans: PvU tokens can be used to buy/sell Assets on the marketplace. PvU is also what we reward players.

The market is now flooded with pet-oriented NFT game. Plants/ Mother Trees is a new concept in Blockchain gaming. However, it doesn’t carry the “new-idea” risk. Since Plants vs Zombies or Stardew Valley for instance have proven to be a success, PvU offer 2 new-but-not-new aspects: Tower defense, Farmer Simulation.

3. Can you share the achievements the team has made so far ? what are the major achievement target Pland Vs Undead is yet to achieve . If possible also share your roadmap.

Ans: We public our roadmap on Website and also in Whitepaper. Let me quickly show you guys

As I said above, we want to achieve what PvZ and many Farming Simulation game has done before.

As you can see on the roadmap, we also have plans for more new modes to create more usages for PvU

4) Could you share a bit about security and also what benefits you provide to incentives user’s choosing your Platform?

Ans: In PlantVsUndead, we know that trust and security are very important. We have plans to do the audit,it’s our mission to make all the PlantVsUndead users feel safe and to demonstrate that we are a highly professional project.

Moreover, to reduce users cheat, bots, scammer, we implement many solutions, for example:
- Check the clock is on time with the network operator, not adjusted
- Do not download the game from any source other than the game homepage
- Do not play multiple accounts at the same time
- Don’t farm from acc 1 and then switch to acc 2 and continue to circumvent the law
- Do not try to enter the game while the game is under maintenance or trying to get in
- Always pay attention to check the bot, if you ignore it too much it will be counted as a bot
- All external lag reduction instructions will be counted as 3rd party software, so everyone is careful and does not use them

As I said before, Competitive gaming is our main focus.

so you can ensure we are very serious about our security system.

5.Whats the total supply of the token ? Could you share a detailed tokenomics of mainnet token’s supply distribution

Ans: You can have a quick look at our Token metrics. For more info, check our Whitepaper on Plantvsundead.com

We also locked 240,000,000

team members token are lock for 1 year and will be released gradually.

Large Investors and Partners are also locked with team.

This ensure a long-term commitment

Twitter Segment

Ans: Hello everyone, as a investor representative and the biggest investor for this project I can share that initial investment for this project has come around 120K USD, we have supported all the incurring fee and a team of 12 people working both fulltime and part time and have delivered a fully working beta version of Plant vs Undead. We are confident in long term investment and commitment to the project. By generating revenue through tax which is around 1% per transaction in game purchase we will have a solid budget to fund this project in a long term.

Ans: PvU is free-to-play but we also ensure the advantage of invested players.

First, NFT plants/motherTree are stronger than free-to-play one.

Second, you only have 6 plants to play.

By having 8 NFT plants. You can reach further level as well as great advantages in climbing rank!

Ans: the lesson is, gaming project shows greater resistance when the market is Red

So, our goal is simple

Create more modes, gamify Staking so that playing and investing would feel the same

I’m a game designer so to make fun out of boring stuff has always been my passion.

In sum, Token with more usages will solve this problem.

Ans: I believe I mention Gamify Staking.

Let me be more details

instead of normal interest rate, we create a mode called Farm

which you could say, a Stardew Valley of our own.

Plants Pot, Mini Sun, Soil, Water, Bug, bees are some of the tools you need to activate your plants

You can then harvest tokens from those plants you have.

that’s for staking

As for gaming, let’s not forget we have a Beta version already. Leaderboards/seasonal rewards are always there to grab!

Ans: As I said before, we are very serious about our security system. We have plans to do the audit smart contract and implement many solutions to reduce cheat, bots, scammers, hackers.

for example:
- Check the clock is on time with the network operator, not adjusted
- Do not download the game from any source other than the game homepage
- Do not play multiple accounts at the same time
- Don’t farm from acc 1 and then switch to acc 2 and continue to circumvent the law
- Do not try to enter the game while the game is under maintenance or trying to get in
- Always pay attention to check the bot, if you ignore it too much it will be counted as a bot
- All external lag reduction instructions will be counted as 3rd party software, so everyone is careful and does not use them

About 20% of our budget goes to security department.

Live Q&A

1. Where can I buy your tokens right now what is your current contract and how can I buy them?Will you have any other DeFI feature like staking, yiekd farm or NFT in the future? Can share a little about your roadmap?

Ans: Whitelisting starts Monday 14th June. We are currently discuss with some IDO platforms.

Roadmap is public on our website!

And yes, we do have plans for staking and yielding. But not just normal staking/yield. We will also gamify them!

2. From where we can buy the token?? And also ,Please mention some of the key features which make this project more beneficial than other competitors in the market.

Ans: After IDO, we will have our main swap pool on PancakeSwap. Other networks will be consider based on community opinion.

What makes us better is the idea of Plants/MotherTree itself

There isn’t a similar project on the market. mostly pets.

So the potential market scale is large.

End of the day, the more players => more investors and more need for PvU tokens

that’s how we look at it

by making this one a decent game first.

Blockchain is a perfect fit for it, it should only support the game as it is.

3.How was the idea of creating your project born? Do you still have that motivation and enthusiasm since the beginning of the project??

Ans: I was actually playing Axie the time I created this one.

But the thing is, I become bored of it. So I thought: "I should make one for my childhood game - Plants vs zombies"

The Beta VErsion is only 1/10 of what I want to show

so no worries I’m as excited as everyone to play it.

4.Currently most investors only care about profits at the moment but ignore the long-term benefits. So can you give them some reasons why they should buy and hold your token in the long term?

Ans: As an investor myself I want to give some advice to likewise potential investor specifically in this project, PVU is a long term investment and you will be benefit from holding PVU token. Personally I have known PVU CEO Quy for a long time to know his knowledge and commitment to this project. He is just not simply a developer but his enthusiasm to gaming industry is beyond my imagination. He is 100% fit to give our investment a bright future.

5. COVID 19 has slowed many economies around the world but as a crypto business has it affected you negatively or positively? Secondly, are you still on track to achieve your targets as the road map says?🎖 As I know a strong community is very important for every project. Do you plan to be a local or global project? What strategy will be used to expand the community?

Ans: Marketing will come out gradually to every part of every continents through out the year with a good budget.
