Dapper Labs, the team behind the Ethereum-based non-fungible token-powered game CryptoKitties, has launched its forthcoming NBA TopShot game in beta.
Cointelegraph experienced a sneak preview of the game, which allows players to own, trade and play with tokenized representations of key moments in NBA history.
NBA TopShot is built on Dapper's Flow blockchain.
TopShot's tokens comprise a "Smashed together unit of video and photography, and data from Sport Radar - the NBA's official data provider," with each NFT depicting and representing a specific moment in NBA history.
The tokens appear as three-dimensional multi-media cubes, with players can click into the moments to explore the NFTs - including watching videos, examining statistics, and exploring other media.
Players will not know which exact moments they are buying in a pack they will know the type of NFTs they will receive.
The game will also make it challenging for players to complete "Sets" of moments relating to a common key event in NBA history.
Players might need to already possess nine of 10 tokens within a set to unlock the final moment.
"We are targeting late this year for the mobile game to be released, but players from the web-based experience will be first to gain access through a beta program for that as well," she noted.
An internal game called "Hardcourt" comprises a manager-style experience in which players organize their NFTs to create a team that can compete against other users.
