From Niantic, the developer behind the legendary game Pokémon Go, which once caused everyone to search for Pokemon with their phones, comes a new augmented reality game full of cute creatures. In the statement made on the subject, it was stated that the game called Peridot is about taking care of magical creatures and raising them.
by Niantic Peridot, “After thousands of years of sleep, the Peridots are waking up to a world very different from the one they used to roam, and they will need your help to protect them from extinction.” It is defined as. In other words, this means that by training, feeding and playing with them we will take care of these magical creatures and help them from cute little babies to as long as they are adults and able to reproduce.

One of the defining aspects of Peridots is that each creature is unique. It is stated that these creatures all look different from each other. Niantic also states that each creature has its own DNA, and this is linked to the developer’s method of reproduction, which is modeled on the real-life working principle of DNA. For example, there are different archetypes of creatures such as unicorn or cheetah in the game; however, with their breeding, completely unique, new cute creatures can emerge.
Much like Pokémon Go, much of Peridot requires going outside in the real world. This will be necessary for situations such as searching for a nest in the wild for breeding, meeting your Peridot’s needs by going for a walk or finding special food for him. However, it should be noted that there is no concept of death in Peridot. “There is no punitive element in this game,” says Ziah Fogel, the game’s producer. “The creatures will never die. Instead, we try to reward people for coming back and playing with their creatures more often.” uses expressions.

It is also noted that in Peridot, built with Niantic’s Lightship platform, its virtual creatures can “recognize different real-world surfaces such as dirt, sand, water, grass and vegetation” and react accordingly.
Fogel also states that Peridot will not be included in the recently emerging NFT market. Noting that Peridots are unique digital assets, Fogel states that what they want right now is for the game to be really fun and easily accessible.
