How is blockchain, NFT, or cryptocurrency used in this product?

What utility does this bring to the product?
Integration with the Enjin Blockchain (新しいタブで開く) provides several utilities for players:

Does this product require me to connect an external wallet? What wallets does this product support?
No. Etherscape has a feature called Managed Wallets (新しいタブで開く) from Enjin Blockchain which allows the game to manage a crypto wallet automatically on your behalf. When you are ready, you can transition to a self-custody wallet at any time. We recommend using the Enjin Wallet (新しいタブで開く) on iOS or Android but any Substrate compatible wallet will work.
Can I use the product without interacting or engaging with blockchain, NFT, or cryptocurrency?
Yes. You can play Etherscape without engaging with any of the blockchain features.
What chain does this product use? Is the chain proof-of-work or proof-of-stake?

Does this product have a marketplace? What can I do with the things that I earn (or purchase)?
Yes. Blockchain items earned or purchased in Etherscape can be bought and sold on NFT.io (新しいタブで開く). Marketplace API's are supported at the protocol level on Enjin Blockchain.
