From the beginning, The Citadel has endeavored to contribute an example of what we believe a decentralized gaming project can be. Our ethos is encoded in the language of action:

We can expect more from founders.
We can care more about our communities.
We do not have to resort to trading integrity for attention.

Our vision is to adopt a different mindset than what's common in web3. This community is too important to be defined by scam artists, low-effort opportunists, and high-level grifters perpetuating vibes as value. We do not just need blockchain games, we need participatory game co-creation and co-ownership. As games continue to become more than just games, absolute control by the few over worlds populated and built by the masses no longer makes sense.

Power should vest in the players, and worlds should be governed by the multitudes that inhabit them.

The Citadel should be a conduit for the community, where players have a platform not only to play, but also to share, discover, learn, build, and govern.
