Redefining the Gaming Landscape: Iskra's ClashMon and the Rise of Onchain Innovation

Iskra's all-in-one onchain game ecosystem empowers players and game studios through community-driven rewards, propelling the future of gaming towards decentralized horizons.

With roots in the world of MMORPGs, Iskra is a culmination of diverse talent who’ve navigated big moments in gaming before.

“When we started making online games years ago,” says Ben Colayco, the Chief Business Officer of Iskra, “MMORPGs were an incredibly niche component of western-based gaming.Then Korea proved that they could be popular when one blew up and became a nationwide hit. At that point, companies like Blizzard looked at that success and created games that became worldwide phenomena.”

Now, Iskra believes that we’re at a similar crossroads, with an onchain ecosystem ready to catalyze a new paradigm shift that transforms today’s niche into tomorrow’s global phenomena. “We really believe that content is going to be a key to taking this ecosystem mainstream,” says Colayco. “If you look at the rest of the world, especially emerging markets, where we are focused in, people are extremely open to the changes that the blockchain can provide.”

Iskra is bringing their latest game to Onchain Summer. A collectible battle RPG that seamlessly melds fast-paced monster battles with captivating tournament rounds, ClashMon draws players into a world brimming with competitive excitement. Yet, in a testament to Iskra's holistic design philosophy, the game also offers moments of tranquility through a fishing mode, allowing players to gather resources and take a breather from intense battles.

Iskra is building much more than game experiences, creating its own ecosystem. “We're one of the first all-in-one onchain game platforms,” says Colayco, “Where you have not just different kinds of games, but also different services. We have our own wallet, our own DEX, a launchpad, a market, all these other services that go all together. So it's all in one place.” A distinctive facet of this approach lies in its unique community system, an innovative model which shares platform fees with the players and game studios, rewarding them based on their active participation.

Iskra is confident that they’re onto something, and that it’s only a matter of time until the whole world joins them. "Once this is proven to be not only lucrative but sustainable,” says Colayco, “I feel like it's a matter of time before large companies like Epic start making big moves."
