# What is SplinterForge?

SplinterForge is a play-and-earn game built on the Hive blockchain that utilizes assets from Splinterlands, another popular play-and-earn game on the same blockchain. SplinterForge is essentially a third-party game where Splinterlands players can use their assets to battle against bosses. In SplinterForge, you are able to buy Crates and Bags that hold equipment and enhancement Runes/Gems to make your heroes stronger for better rewards against the bosses. The rewards come in the form of [FORGE](https://tribaldex.com/trade/FORGE).

"SplinterForge" means a gaming application accessible through the website that utilizes Hive Blockchain to enable users to own, transfer, and trade unique digital cards to access or participate in the game, which cards can then be viewed on the website for the user to utilize or otherwise interact with.

Overall, SplinterForge provides a way for Splinterlands players to monetize their gameplay in a new way through NFT technology. Every Crate and Bag opened in SplinterForge will also create NFTs, which can be used for various different things in the game.
