Game Designer (Monetisation)
3 years ago
A bit about us:
Evidence and data-based monetization lie at the heart of every free-to-play game. Within any complex system, there are a multitude of levers to pull that can change the player’s perception of the value of a system and allow them to choose to invest in it. We are looking for someone who can see into that system and fine-tune it to increase monetization and profitability.
Our digital trading card game, Gods Unchained, contains a system of incentives even more complex and unique than a regular free-to-play game, in that the assets you earn or purchase in-game can then be bought and sold as NFTs on the blockchain or Immutable X marketplace.
We are looking for a Game Economy/Monetization Designer who can understand the game, its rewards and the viability and liquidity of the secondary market when designing the monetization strategy.
You will be responsible for shaping the financial success of our groundbreaking digital trading card game. You will have a pivotal role in the future of Gods Unchained, and will also contribute to the success of our other games and products.
This is a unique opportunity for you to interact and design with a new and cutting-edge technology that is paving the way for blockchain-based gaming to become mainstream. This role is perfect for you if you have a passion for paving the way for crypto-based gaming economies and have experience with the traditional free-to-play gaming economies.

- Find unique solutions to hard game design problems leveraging features of blockchain
- Create features and player options that will allow users to increase their financial benefit through the creation, minting, and selling of their own NFTs

- Propose new game modes for Gods Unchained that result in higher engagement
- Define quality work procedures and improve the function of the team
- Generate concepts for future Immutable Games titles
- Increase the revenue of Immutable through your ideas and game design
- Analyse current processes and implement changes to our monetization workflow that sees an immediate improvement in data analysis
