Hello BHW,

Here is an idea generate some extra Steemit coins.

Recently a game was rolled out called Drug Wars. It's like that TI 80 graphing calculator game back in the day, or the Mafia wars game on Facebook. The classic trope - Street thug building a drug empire...

The premises you build a drug empire and fight rival players. The twist however is that you can invest the "drugs" you produce in this game into a daily heist. This daily heist pays out at the end of the day in Steem, which you can then transfer and trade out into whatever you coin wish.

For example the "COCINA" producing lab (*I think this is the most profitable building to invest into) costs $0.7 ~$1.50 to produce. It pumps outs +10.37k / DAY in the virtual drugs. You can invest this into the daily heist and get a return of about $.10 a day. In about 15 to 16 days you've paid off the building, then you are potentially netting income.

So you can invest about $15 into building these plants (*10 of them), and then potentially net one dollar a day in income. Not too bad...

The goal would be to design some sort of bot to automatically invest into the daily heist each day so that you don't have to necessarily login each day...

Here is the games link : https://drugwars.io

If you make a bot that can do the auto add all funds to the daily heist, let me know too!

Thanks and enjoy~
 
Why can't we just create a site like that? Better $$$$ opportunities...

Because the vast majority of us lack the technical skills and patience required to do so. If you can do it, DO IT.

Google is your friend to learn skills (After some digging, you can just install ready made script on VPS and your $$ machine would be ready, Then focus on marketing - i market other products and make better ROI, that's why i'm not gonna do it) but i can't do anything about patience.
 
Can we make any money for free or need to invest real money?
It is free to set up and start to play. If you wanted to ramp up your productions faster you could invest into it... but it is free.

Is steemit still dominated by whales?
IDK on that one... not sure ow they could mess with this game and your ability to generate returns..

I am seeing a lot of "games" poping up that have good returns, like a dice rolling game, you make a bet if the roll will be over or under and gives you a 49% chance of winning.. as its a digital token you sorta get around the no gambling laws... I can see HUGE returns on micro gambling sites based around crypto.
 
I made almost $0.01 USD today if I am understanding the game/steem correctly. I made a big mistake in the game building the wrong buildings first, and without investing steem coin or whatever into it, now I have to wait over 24 hours to make enough resources to build more. Will be interesting to see how much I can make without any investment.
 
Ok what stops me from having lots of accounts? Or that wouldn't help at all?

they allow it but account creation can sometimes take anywhere from 2 hours to up to 2 weeks since all accounts are manually approved by the Steemit crew and then they fund. Have to submit phone and email, and of course IP is recorded.

You can also go v2.steemconnect.com/accounts/create to create an additional account by transferring STEEM from your existing account. It cost 3.000 STEEM I think, to create new account.
 
Been using this game for free for almost 2 weeks, and I can say it is impossible to make any money free. The original method is about investing money, but I wanted to report back my results. I guess it would take like 6 months of playing the game free to be able to make $0.03 per day or something, if things don't change by then (but I suspect they will). No idea if it's really worth investing money into. I don't understand it enough to give that recommendation.

Anyone else tried it?
 
Very interesting!! I will check it out!

I thought that steemit was dead, to be honest haha

Hi, Why do you think Steemit is dead?
I've been on now for little bit and generating a solid return of steem... Was there something that happened that makes you feel this way?
 
web_riches, thanks for telling us about this game. I read someone else advice on how to speed up production while being a free to play type of player. I'm to do the point I can upgrade something everyday now :)

For new players the strategy is pretty simple. Upgrade weapons and alcohol first, then upgrade one or 2 of the drug buildings. From here you build the training facility and a little army. Only attack other new players. Most of the other "new" players are old players not playing the game anymore. So you come across some good resources. Repeat the first steps again. Your daily resources after doing this twice lets you upgrade something everyday. Whatever you do don't invest in the heist to early. You need those drugs to upgrade buildings. As a new player your focus should be upgrading stuff building up your daily steem payout not the heist payout.

That's the best I can do without going completely into a step by step guide. Saving that knowledge for my crypto blog. ;)

Have been building a little army and getting lots of resources much quicker now. For sure this is the most important thing for free players to do. Haven't given up yet!

yeah, the other day i did 3 attacks that allowed me to upgrade 3 things and jump into the heist. Today my army got fucked, a few ppl attacked me and i attacked someone without sending the spy first. Now I have to rebuild the army to where it was. I might grow it bigger because the smart players check with their spy first and when they see my army. They don't attack me. Weapons and alcohol are the most important for a free to play player. Its these resources that allow you to build up an army fast and upgrade your drug production.
 
Ugh. This game is so bugged. I spent all of my supplies in upgrading buildings, had no supplies so that hopefully nobody would attack me. My buildings had been upgrading for around 30 minutes, and I logged off. I log back in, and my upgrades canceled themselves, all of my supplies were sitting open, and someone killed my entire army and took all of my supplies. That really blows.
 
Sounds interesting, but I think it might take too long to earn any money.
