Following the lead of Cryptokitties, Crypt-oink is a Dapp Game that allows players to buy, breed and train their digital pigs known as 'Cryptons' to compete with others in the 'Gran Ton Rismo' race.


Each of Cryptons as an ERC-721 token, acquires different features that makes them unique and has distinct characteristics. On top of that, they look absolutely cute, huggable and the animations are stunning!


Depending upon their scarcity and special characteristics, players can sell them to earn profits.

Eggton is a Crypton itself, but do keep in mind that:

  • Eggtons are unavailable for breeding and user trading, and can only be used in races.

  • Eggtons have a limited selection of items.

  • Eggtons are represented by an 'egg' icon displayed on their picture.

Before diving further into the world of Cryptons and becoming a ‘Crypton’ owner yourself, it’s worth getting to know some basics about these special and cute creatures.


Crypton stats


TP


Determines the current level of a crypton. Higher level means higher abilities and talents. You can increase your crypton’s TP by training.


This Crypton's TP will be calculated once it has been registered in Gran Ton Rismo.


The word Gran Ton Rismo is inspired by Gran Turismo racing (Italian) in which drivers race sport cars around purpose-built circuits, and closed street circuits. In Gran Ton Rismo, Gryptons race against others.

Potential


This figure represents the innate abilities and strengths of a Crypton. It cannot be changed by any means. Cryptons with high potential figures usually appear with more marks/icons on their bodies.

Age


A crypto’s age can say its progress through life. Once going through a training, your Crypton will age one more month. After racing, its age will increase by two months. Each age has an upper limit on how much a Crypton can raise it stats (stat ceiling).


As a Crypton ages, its stat ceiling will raise which allows the Crypton to progress further in ability. At the age of 8, a Crypton can reach its ultimate ability. This age is also considered the peak of a Crypton life. Once a Crypton has passed this peak, its stat ceiling will slowly decrease as well as its potential. Cryptons may no longer be trained to increase their stats at the age of tenth.

League


Depending on the amount of Coink (an in-game currency), Cryptons are divided into 4 different leagues:


  • Rookie: Starting League

  • Semi-Pro: 1,000-2,599 Coink

  • Pro: 2,600+ Coink

  • Veteran: 10-year-old Cryptons

Coinks are in-game coins which are used to buy in-game items, such as energy milk, gym membership or 'soul' to give your Cryptons an edge on the Race track.

Coink prices are updated regularly. Players can purchase Coinks by using Ether or trading their Cryptons. 500 Coinks will also be given to each player everyday as a daily bonus. Coinks are as well rewarded to Cryptons after they attend in Weekly, Monthly or Seasonal races.

By the age of tenth, Cryptons will be assigned into the Veteran league and will no longer be able to train in the Gym. Cryptons will receive bonuses to their training efficiency up to their current league. This will help them gain better results at training.


Energy


Energy enables the ability of a Crypton. Whenever a Cryton gets evolved in a training session or racing, some Energy will be used which will reduce the total Energy it reserves.


One Energy will be restored every minute, once your Crypton is resting.

Speed


Speed helps a Crypton run faster in most cases within a race. The more stars a Crypton has achieved to a certain stat, the easier it is to train.


Power


Power increases a Crypton’s speed during curves. The more stars a Crypton has achieved to a certain stat, the easier it is to train.


Stamina


Stamina helps a Crypton run faster in the last areas of a race. The more stars a Cryton has achieved to a certain stat, the easier it is to train.

Skill Fire Rate


A Skill Fire Rate determines the likelihood that a Crypton's Skills will actually go off when their conditions are met. Even if you have a rather powerful ‘Skill’, it will be harder to reap its benefits while it has a low Firing Rate.


Skill Fire Rate
Skill Fire Rate

Cryptons with high Skill Fire Rates are born from parents who also have high Skill Fire Rates and short Cooltimes.


Keep in mind that it is also possible to raise your Crypton’s Skill Fire Rate after birth as well.


Skill


Any Crypton that wears a head, body or foot accessory will have a skill related to that accessory. When a skill’s conditions are met during a race, it will have a chance to occur depending on its Skill Fire Rate. Some skills are extremely uncommon and not every Crypton obtains a skill. Skills are a huge part of Gran Ton Rismo and will play a large role in who wins and loses races.


Body Accs: There is a total of 14 body accessories. Some help lower the speed of a random rival Crypton (Blast of O2, Sonar, Oak Aged, Breaking the Bank). Some will knock back two rival Cryptons in a race (Sweet and Deadly) while some help Crypton gain a shield for 25 secs blocking up to two attacks (The Queen’s Guard).


Head Accs: There are 12 types of head accessories. Some help gain a boost to the speed of a Crypton (Magician’s Hat, Winter’s Dash) while some gain a boost to its stamina or power (Bull Rush, Charge).


Foot Accs: Foot accessories will help increase your Crypton’s speed (Running Shoes, Skate’n Go) or power (Running Cute, Star Power) or stamina (Rain Boots, Staying Stylish).


Any accessory comes with a related skill.
Any accessory comes with a related skill.

Special and Unique Cryptons inherit these skills regardless of their Head Accs, Body Accs and Foot Accs traits.

Start Dash


Start dash is a small boost that occurs when a race’ start buzzer goes off. Gen 0 Cryptons inherently have these dashes. Higher generation Cryptons will have a smaller chance of having a start dash occurred.


EX Legacy


EX Legacies are special buffs that can be acquired throughout a Crypton’s life and can be passed on to their offspring. EX Legacies will be rewarded to Cryptons once they win 1st place in a race or accomplish other types of achievements. Cryptons will receive bonuses to their stats and other abilities based on each Legacy’s effect. The shorter a Crypton's Cooltime is, the greater possibility they have to pass on these legacies.

Crypton Attributes


Trait


A Crypton's traits determine its shape, pattern, and color. Next to every trait tag is a mark which represents the ratio of all Cryptons that have that same specific trait. When other Cryptons are born carrying that specific trait, this ratio will increase automatically.

Type


There are a total of three official Crypton types:


Normal: Under this type a Crypton's traits will be depicted on the Crypton's body in accordance with its genes.


Special: Under this type a Crypton will exhibit special traits upon its body. Special Cryptons can be created through breeding.

Unique: Unique Cryptons are dropped into the game on special occasions by the game publisher. These Cryptons cannot be created through breeding and demonstrate unique traits upon their body.

Gen


A crypton's generation. Higher-generation Cryptons will be born with higher Cooltime. However, these Cryptons have more possibilities to create offspring with rare traits than the lower-generation counterpart.


Cooltime


Cooltime is the amount of time a Crypton need to rest before it can breed again. The cooltime period gets longer each time it breeds.

2. Select one of your Cryptons to be the Mother.

Keep in mind that:


  • Crypton will not disappear after breeding and will remain in your collection.

  • It's impossible to breed a Crypton with their parents.

  • If your desired siring partner shares either parent with your Crypton, they are not allowed to breed.

You can either keep your existing Cryptons or sell them in the HB marketplace to make profits.
