Intro

The Unfettered is a challenging action RPG inspired by games like Dark Souls, emphasizing skill-based combat and tactical gameplay. Developed by Awkay Technologies, it features two distinct experiences: Origins, a cooperative action-adventure with fast-paced melee combat, and Awakening, a roguelike survival mode. Players explore a mythological world filled with powerful enemies, uncover ancient secrets, and master a combat system where precision and strategy determine success.

Story

Set in a dystopian realm shaped by millennia of divine conflict, players assume the role of Lura, a young female warrior chosen by Death to restore balance between gods and chaos. As the descendant of the legendary bird that created the world, Lura’s mission is to save the sacred lands of Ashtanna and avenge the deaths of her mother, Zandyka, and ancestor, Natykai. The world is now infested with monsters and demons after the truce created by Zandyka was broken. Players will face deadly enemies, collect souls, and transmute them into power while unraveling the mysteries behind Death’s plan.

Economy and NFTs

The $SOULS token is the primary utility token within The Unfettered ecosystem, used for arena entry fees, item crafting, repairs, and character upgrades across the main game and its expanding universe. A major component of the economy is the $SOULS Community Burn Program, where tokens are burned based on in-game performance metrics like experience earned and enemies defeated, directly linking gameplay activity to token scarcity and value.

In Awakening, the mini-game within the ecosystem, SoulsVerse Points (SVP) act as the primary and only in-game currency. Players can earn SVP through gameplay activities and daily quests, using them to purchase essential items that improve performance and boost leaderboard standings. Additionally, Founder’s Pass NFTs provide premium benefits, such as increased drop rates and discounts on repairs and upgrades, further expanding the utility within the game’s reward system.
