Introduction
City Spirits is a game that encourages people to explore the history and pop culture of their city. Visitors can tour cities in a fun new way by following clues that lead to Spirits that “haunt” popular locations. When someone catches a Spirit by figuring out the clues to the puzzle, they become its new Spirit Keeper. City Spirits are one of a kind images that are NFTs on the Solana Blockchain making them collectible and fun to trade.
Each City Spirit doubles as a ticket to unique experiences that bring people together in fun new ways. Depending on the City Spirit one holds they will be eligible for product discounts, freebies, and VIP treatment.
This game is designed to be played by exploring cities, shopping at local businesses and winning reward tokens that can be traded for game play items or staked to get even more rewards. There is something for everyone who plays City Spirits.

Lore
Game Play
Do you know your history and pop-culture? Brush up for City Spirits as you explore the city in a fun new way. You can follow clues that lead to Spirits that are “haunting” popular tourist locations or if you happen to see a City Spirit flying around your city you can report the “sighting“. Come Join the fun!
Haunting
When a location becomes haunted you will get a notification through your preferred method. The City Spirit will also be listed on our haunting page along with its profile and first clue to locating the spirit. The first clue will lead you to the first checkpoint that has a game challenge. A challenge may be answering a question about history or culture from the city you are in or completing a task. Once you have completed a challenge, we will reward you with SPOOK$ tokens and the next game clue. You will continue on an adventure around the city completing more challenges that will gain you more SPOOK$ tokens. Once you locate the City Spirit you will be entered in a drawing to win that City Spirit NFT. Some hauntings will be a race to find the Spirit and the first person to find it will win. All other players who received SPOOK$ can save them up to trade for City Spirits NFTs and other items in our marketplace.
Sighting
City Spirits could be flying around your city anytime looking for new places to haunt so make sure to keep an eye out for them. If you see a City Spirit you can report the sighting to us via text or email. Current Spirits on the loose will be posted on our sighting page so you know what ones to look out for along with hints of where to look. All accurate sighting reports will receive SPOOK$ tokens and be entered into a drawing to win that City Spirit NFT becoming its new Spirit Keeper. We also offer alternate methods of entry on our sighting page by entering in a receipt from the business sponsoring that sighting.
City Spirit NFT
City Spirits are NFTs on the Solana Blockchain. City Spirit art was designed by Nath Millburn based on a ghost drawing done by Lottie, the then 5 year old daughter of our founders Jordan Winthrop & Elise Strasser. We even named our base spirit Lottie! Each city has it’s own unique collection of art work based on that city’s history and pop culture icons. City Spirit NFTs act as a ticket to perpetual raffle as well as a pass to get unique benefits and VIP treatment from sponsor businesses. City Spirits can be bought, sold and traded just like any NFT on secondary marketplaces. We choose Magic Eden as our marketplace of choice.

SPOOK$ Token
SPOOK$ are the token used in the City Spirits game. You can earn SPOOK$ tokens by completing challenges, reporting a spirit sighting, and by staking and burning your City Spirits. SPOOK$ can be used to secure whitelist roles and mint new City Spirits from new cities. SPOOK$ are paired with SOL by taking 2% of each City Spirit sold and locking it up in the SPOOK$ Wallet that provides liquidity to the SPOOK$ token. There will only ever be 13,000,000 SPOOK$ Tokens across all collections/cities. Part of the fun of this game is you can gain passive income by playing your SPOOK$ right.

You will soon be able to stake City Spirits by sending them to the Desolate Space Metaverse. Once your City Spirit is in Desolate Space it will earn you a number of SPOOK$ tokens depending on your game level. Each Spirit you stake will receive the number of tokens corresponding to your game level each week. Staked Spirits will no longer be eligible for holder benefits or raffle winnings until you un-stake them. Minimum staking time is 4 weeks before they can be retrieved from Desolate Space. You can visit Desolate Space yourself to see all the staked Spirits in the metaverse!

Spirit Seekers
Anyone who plays the game is a Spirit Seeker. You can sign up to get clues and notifications of new hauntings and sightings. Spirit Seekers who want to earn SPOOK$ tokens will need to verify their email address, phone number and then join our Discord server.

Depending on the City Spirit’s unique traits you will be eligible for offerings from local businesses.

Keeper Benefits
Many City Spirits have benefits that are as unique as they are. Benefits depend on what traits your Spirit has. Benefits can range from free or discounted stuff to VIP treatment. Keeper benefits change from city to city so please check your corresponding cities page to find out what benefits your City Spirit NFT gives you.
Raffle Tickets
All City Spirit NFTs double as a raffle ticket that never expires. Funds are built up in a Raffle Wallet that is locked to a drawing that happens when the pot reached 10 SOL The wallet is constantly funded by taking a 2% commission from every City Spirit NFT sold. Each city has their own fund an raffle to keep the odds higher. Staked spirits are not eligible for raffle winnings so the more spirits other people have staked the better odds you have at winning the pot.
Raffle Wallet Address: COMING SOON
City Spirit Community DAO
All Spirit Keepers become members of the City Spirit DAO. (DAO= Decentralized Autonomous Organization) Our DAO is also unique in that we admit it is not a DAO as many other Web3 projects try to suggest. We realize that a DAO doesn’t allow for the deep level of human interaction City Spirits is meant to be. The City Spirit DAO means “Way” or “the Way of the Community” The DAO principals that teach perfection through self-cultivation can and should be extended the community as a whole. This is the way our cities will thrive! The City Spirit DAO was created for three purposes.
First is to allow submitting locations on where a City Spirit Should Haunt next. No one will know what locations are chosen but you can offer up your business or favorite hangout as our next haunt.
Second is to allow submitting and voting on what city we should haunt next. Each city will have its own unique collection of City Spirit art work. We need your support to come haunt your city!
Third is to vote on and organize City Spirit events. Our members submit suggestions and vote on ideas for a party, conference, expedition or even a wingding. Our DAO is funded by taking 30% of our commissions and putting it in a DAO wallet used only for City Spirit DAO approved reasons. Some DAOs may even vote to donate some or all of their funds to a local good cause or non-profit. It is totally up to the members.
DAO Wallet Address: COMING SOON
