Platypus: One Game to Rule Them All
Platypus is a series of never ending rounds, rounds last somewhere between 10 and 25 plays. Race to profitability by winning buying into P4RTY early. You can boost your position by depositing into P4 for passive dividends. You can also buy P4RTY tokens on exchange to boost your position in the P4RTY DAO, potentially at less than mint price (0.001 ETH)! Finally, you can sacrifice for long term massive gains by buying into P5, the Giving Token!
Playing
Playing Platypus is easy. Mastering Platypus is hard. Set your nickname and slogan and make a name for yourself by dominating rounds. The coolest thing about Platy is that how you win is up to you whether you are fighting for the Snowfall pot and making small bets. Or laying low, staking positions in the DAO, P4, and P5.
Payouts
Platypus is a complex/real-world, meta game. Everyone leaves the table with value and can maximize that value long after the round is over. Rounds are payed out with ETH and the P4RTY earned through participation. When you play a round of Platy you have a choice of simply playing with .02 ETH or going heavy with .2 ETH.
