Back to collectionChromos Gets a Clear Role Before It Gets a Look
The game community had encountered cards and staking, but many had only heard the name Chromos without understanding how it connected to evolution. They chose Chromos as the subject: staking cards in the game produces this substance; more staked cards and higher rarity mean greater daily output. Information previously scattered across explanations of staking and evolution now had a shared subject players could discuss.

The game community had encountered cards and staking, but many had only heard the name Chromos without understanding how it connected to evolution. The week's art brief needed a subject, giving the team a chance to explain the mechanic.
They chose Chromos as the subject: staking cards in the game produces this substance; more staked cards and higher rarity mean greater daily output. Chromos fuels card evolution. Once the brief was posted, many people understood the term for the first time. Someone worried that drawing it as an ordinary reward coin would mislead newcomers, so the artist decided to emphasize its connection to card evolution before settling on its appearance.
Information previously scattered across explanations of staking and evolution now had a shared subject players could discuss. The art was unfinished, and its visual form still needed work. The team planned to use community questions to check the explanation, so an attractive image would not obscure the rules for obtaining and consuming Chromos.
