Legends of the Mara
Evolution
Launched in 2023, Legends of the Mara emerged as a 2D adventure and resource management game in the Otherside universe. The journey began with Otherdeed Expanded NFTs and Vessels that evolved into Maras, establishing a foundation for Yuga Labs' innovative Web3 gaming experience.
How Everything Started
The Genesis
Legends of the Mara began as a collection-based 2D strategy game set in the Otherside universe. The game combines the collectability of a card game with the relaxed pace of an idle tap game, allowing players to defend their land from Shattered, farm resources, and evolve their characters.
The World of Oda
At the heart of Legends of the Mara are the Oda - magical beings tied to the fate of Otherside. These include the powerful Kodas (the primary keepers of Otherside), Maras (which hatch from Vessels), and Kodamaras (evolved Maras). Players use these characters to farm resources, defend against Shattered, and enhance their gameplay experience.
Timeline
Official Announcement

Looking Forward
With Faraway now leading development, Legends of the Mara is set to evolve with numerous planned improvements. Future updates promise Shattered that fight back, increased tactical depth, new abilities, boss phases, HV-MTL integration, and new Shattered types. Players can look forward to a more dynamic and engaging experience as the game continues to grow under Faraway's direction.
