There are games that give the passive output based on the actions. A lot of such games have quest, PVP and other competitive means for doing the game activity that earns some tokens. I recently found one game which allows you to mine the resources and get rewards along the way. Mines of Dalarnia is one such game that allows you to do just that.
Now that Halloween is closer the new mode in the mining is related to the season around. You would be mining the pumpkins this time. Something you would enjoy if you are in the Halloween spirit.
The game basically gives you character that has to mine the resources. And the character upgrades with the mining finds in the meantime. You would also find that NFTs are built on this same principle. You would be doing that work too in the marketplace which has land, mining items and other NFTs to be used in the game.
Not just that you would have to battle the monsters too. So it's not some typical miner work. You would have to survive along the way as you move mining there. And there would be some seasonal events too. Like bored ape event, halloween event etc. So the seasonal rewards and the benefits also follows there.
The game has four regions within which you are mining, doing quests and also earning the token rewards along the way. Kind of interesting concept which if you check the gameplay would give you an idea on how the game could entertain you along the way. This is something you may want to invest into if playing such genre of games is something you prefer long term.
