Everything starts with WORLD contract that will set the 400x400 tile map of the world round.

The core gameplay loop of Terracon Quest involves the following key steps:

1. Connect a compatible Ethereum wallet and deposit the required amount of some token (or free) to the vault which will split the full deposits from all players throughout the Gold Mines in the map.
2. Join a game round and receive a random location on the 400x400 tile map, along with a Founding City Token and initial resources, buildings, and units tokens.
3. Manage resources, construct buildings, and train units to grow the city and population.
4. Participate in battles against other players (loot their resources) or capture gold mines to acquire more resources and strengthen the city.
5. Utilize strategic planning, diplomacy, and cooperation with other players to gain an advantage in battles and resource management.
6. Compete for a high ranking on the leaderboard by expanding the city and achieving military and economic milestones.
7. Earn in-game rewards and tokens, which can be traded, sold, or used in future game rounds.

By following this core gameplay loop, players will be continuously engaged in the game, balancing resource management, city building, military strategy, and collaboration with other players. This will create a dynamic and ever-changing game world that encourages player interaction and long-term engagement.
