The Sandbox is a decentralized, community-driven gaming ecosystem where creators can share and monetize voxel assets and gaming experiences on the Ethereum blockchain. It features 3 main components: an NFT builder, a Marketplace, and Game Maker. Using The Sandbox's free software, such as VoxEdit and the Game Maker, players, artists and game designers can create ASSETs and experiences, such as games, dioramas and art galleries, for themselves and to share with others. In The Sandbox, anyone will be able to create and animate 3D objects through VoxEdit and create games with the use of in-game visual scripting. It empowers players and creators, and provides an easy way to create and own the content in the games they play through blockchain technology and non-fungible tokens. The Sandbox game franchise is one of the world’s largest independent user-generated content and gaming platforms, with 40 million downloads and over one million monthly active users.
