From all the Australian games of the past few years, The Gardens Between is one of the more successful. It’s a polished, critically acclaimed puzzler from a well-renowned team.

The past few weeks have been nothing short of a whirlwind for the two-person studio behind The Gardens Between. Released a few years ago, Melbourne developers The Voxel Agents announced The Gardens Between would be released on a new platform — Pavillion Hub, an Australian-made blockchain marketplace that allows developers to mint their game, or parts of their game, as NFTs.

What does that mean for The Gardens Between exactly? In practice, users pay $25 to get an NFT game license. That license allows you to play The Gardens Between, like you would on Steam, consoles or phones, but it also comes with the ability to share that license and game files with others. Users can also resell the license later on, if they like.

Note; Rest assured that Pavillion Hub NFTs use Proof of Stake to maintain a low environmental cost. That's important to us too. https://t.co/b9uYwP2Jn1
