Overview
LAMOverse is a fully developed ecosystem crafted by gamers, for gamers, with gamers at the core of its design. This ecosystem is composed of three main elements: the 5" Stylized Vinyl Figures, the LAMO: AR Vinyl app, and the free-to-play LAMO game. Developed by Ex Populus, LAMO integrates physical collectibles with digital gaming, offering an experience that blurs the line between reality and the virtual world. The result is a platform where players can engage in high-energy gameplay, collect unique items, and enjoy augmented reality (AR) experiences that bring their digital collections to life.
In the LAMO universe, players dive into a chaotic digital world where everything is destructible, and creativity is key. The game is set in a fast-paced environment where survival depends on your ability to adapt, strategize, and outlast your opponents. Characters and items within this universe are not just digital entities; they’re extensions of the physical LAMO Vinyl Figures you can collect. Each figure comes with its own backstory and abilities, tying into the larger narrative of the LAMO world. This unique connection between the physical and digital realms enhances the storytelling aspect, making every collectible a part of the ongoing LAMO saga.
Gameplay and Features
LAMO offers a fast-paced thrilling, free-to-play online multiplayer battle royale experience where chaos reigns supreme. The game is designed around short, intense matches that can be enjoyed back-to-back or as quick pick-up games between your other favorite titles. In LAMO, the world itself is your playground, with destructible environments that you can blast apart, rebuild, and control to gain the upper hand. Whether you’re constructing massive attack towers, capturing vital control points, or unleashing destruction from your personalized hovercar, the gameplay is all about strategy and creativity.
The game supports both Free-For-All and Team-based matches, offering a variety of ways to compete. As you play, you can unlock cosmetic upgrades to personalize your experience, though these do not affect gameplay. LAMO is all about player skill and strategy, making each victory truly earned.
A significant aspect of LAMO is its connection to physical collectibles. The LAMO: AR Vinyl app allows players to track their collection of Vinyl Figures, unlock in-game BattleBundles, and experience exclusive AR content. Each Vinyl Figure comes with a single-use QR code that unlocks a bundle of items in the game, offering real value for collectors. These figures are available in limited quantities, making them highly sought after by players who want to enhance their in-game presence with unique characters and skins.
NFTs and Blockchain
LAMO integrates Web3 technology to bring ownership to the digital assets you collect, whether through gameplay or the LAMO: AR Vinyl app. A recent development in the Web3 aspect of the LAMOverse is its move to the emerging blockchain for gamers, XAI.
How to Get Started
LAMO is still in early development, but if you're eager for the game, the best way to stay informed is by wishlisting the game on the Steam store and keeping an eye out for updates via the Ex Populus social media channels.
