Petobots

Petobots is a GameFi project that operates as a web3 casual gaming platform where players engage in player-versus-player (PvP) battles using robotic pets. The company was founded by Yaroslav Shakula and Sergei Lagutenko. The leadership team includes Artak Seyranyan as Product Lead, who previously worked as a business developer at SafeHamsters, and Eugene Shakula as Head of Operations, who holds the same title at the web3 venture studio YARD [HUB] and was COO at DeepMine. Petobots is notably backed by YARD [HUB], a web3 venture studio with a $2.5 million fund, and is part of the DeepMine Metaverse.

The core of the Petobots platform is a collection of skill-based, prediction-based, and luck-based casual games with rounds typically lasting up to five minutes. The business model incorporates both free-to-play and wager-based modes, where players can bet with the platform's utility token, $PBOT, and the winner takes the entire pot. Revenue is generated from fees on these wagers, and the model also includes a "Rent-a-Bot" feature in its marketplace. The platform is designed to be interoperable, allowing other NFT collections to integrate their assets for community engagement.

To participate, players generally need a Petobot NFT, which functions as their in-game character. These NFTs have distinct attributes such as health, attack, armor, and evasion, which can be leveled up and enhanced through gameplay. The game universe is centered around Petobots City, a hub for managing accounts, trading on the marketplace, breeding new generations of Petobots, and enhancing existing ones. The first game released is Gladiators Battle, where players strategically select attack and defense zones to defeat their opponent. The project has multiple NFT collections, including Alpha Pass, OG Canabot, 1st Gen, and 2nd Gen, each offering different levels of access and in-game utility.
