# Game Loop

## Starting in CryptoTamers

To start you must acquire at least one Cryptid be it by the ingame shop or the players market, for that you'll need to exchange the CryptoTamers Token for ingame currency on the game exchange.

With your pet in hands you can already join battles and earn the game credits, but this little guy will get hungry fast and you should visit the market for some food or even rent a gathering room and pick your food for yourself.

## Arena

In the game you can find a match at the arena and test your Cryptids habilities, there are 3 types of matchs.

1. The Street Arena, where players can battle each other for a quick prize.
2. The Stadium, where players can battle each other in championship for a bigger prize.
3. The Wild, where the player can fight wild monsters for a low prize.

## Rooms

In the game shop you can purchase a room bundle, this box will give you a random room. In CryptoTamers all Cryptid interactions happen in digital microverses, the rooms, you can move your virtual pets from room to room at any time and each room will have its own characteristics.&#x20;

There are 3 types of rooms, training rooms, gathering rooms and special rooms and every single one has its purpose. In the Training rooms you can place your Cryptids to raise their stats over time, there is a limit cap based on the starting points but training your Cryptids will increase your chances on the arena. In the Gathering rooms you'll place your cryptids to find hidden items, gather food and other materials.&#x20;

And there are Special rooms such as the Lobby and the Love den, the Lobby is the only free room, it is untradable and can hold up to 12 Cryptids at a time. It doesn't affect your monsters in any way, there you can store your Cryptids while they rest from the arena or from other activities. The Love den is obtainable from the room bundle or from the ingame market and it is a room for breeding Cryptids.

### Renting

You can also rent your room to other players or rent other player's rooms. The price will be set by the room owner, a rented room will have a determined rent time and when it's over it will go back to the original owner.
