Summary
The Pitch Deck for Mortalis Game Inc. introduces our innovative approach to revitalize the MMORPG genre with MMORPG “Mortalis: Back to the Roots.” It emphasizes solving the industry’s chronic issues of superficial gameplay and quick burnout, aiming for deep content and long-term player engagement. The deck outlines the company’s strategy, including building a strong community through storytelling, offering unique selling points like earning in-game currency, and leveraging cryptocurrency for investment and gameplay incentives. It showcases the experienced founding team’s expertise and vision for disrupting the gaming market, backed by achievements and future plans for growth and investor engagement.
What’s in It for You*
Our financial projections show that a minimum investment of €35,200,000 is required to realize our game within 9 years of funding. This investment grants a 17% equity stake in our company.
Investments can be contributed either as a lump sum or in stages, aligned with the development and release of our products: books, a TV series, a Demo Game, and the final game itself.
This opportunity is flexible—investments can be made individually or collectively, allowing for joint contributions with friends or partners.
The investment holding period is set at up to 9 years, as we plan to launch our game in the 8th year after raising the necessary funds. Within this 9-year period, we project an accumulated net profit of no less than €172,251,175.
Note: This profit does not include sales from our books and TV series; it only encompasses sales of game-related products. We’ll share more details in later phases of negotiations.
The ROI* depends on our negotiations and agreement we establish. There are many possibilities, for example:
- a buyback at five times the initial investment value;
- a buyback at three times the initial investment value, plus three years of passive income in the form of dividends;
- an exit strategy where a third party purchases the studio for X times its value.
It’s worth mentioning that we are exploring additional investment avenues through tokenization, which could offer an early exit strategy for investors.

Why? The Pain and Cure!
What sets billion-dollar companies apart from all others? As pathfinders, their unique ways become industry standards.
Today, most multiplayer games created with a 5-10 year lifespan lose a significant portion of their players within a month. Why? Because many MMOs are too superficial, lack depth, and lead players to end-game content too quickly. For decades, games have been following a similar pattern with no groundbreaking mechanics or systems. They often overwhelm new players with excessive information and choices, leading to confusion.
Moreover, gaming is frequently seen as a waste of time, with little value placed on the player’s time.
Our mission with ‘Mortalis: Back to the Roots’ is to rescue MMORPG players from repetitive, shallow games. We aim for deep content and meaningful gameplay that keeps players engaged over the long term. Every day in the game should feel new and exciting, as if the player has just started their journey. The game’s story and choices will encourage players to focus on details and enjoy the journey rather than rushing to the end.
To achieve this, we will implement adaptive mechanics and systems that align with the gamer’s evolving goals, enhancing immersion, enjoyment, and even material rewards. Our innovative approach will allow players to earn while playing, redefining gaming as a valuable and rewarding experience.
This kind of innovation demands a deep understanding of the players’ challenges and psychology, as well as the knowledge of effective solutions and strategies to skillfully implement them. Our team has this critical understanding and expertise, having laid a strong foundation since 2020.

Achievements
We’re at a unique phase in our development, marked by consistent annual growth bolstered by volunteers, whom we proudly call Legendary Founders. These dedicated individuals share our vision and are passionate about our idea.
Our team, now comprising 20+ members, has expanded across two companies in the EU (Lifelong Fund OÜ) and USA (Mortalis Game, Inc.) We have gained valuable experience from two fundraising projects, enhancing our capabilities in this crucial area. This experience includes the release of a novel (“The Gods to Be“), with a second one (“A World in Slumber“) planned for 2024, demonstrating our ability to diversify and innovate.
We’ve made significant strides with investor relations, having met with our first potential investors. These interactions have provided us with invaluable insights for growth. Additionally, we have prepared a Whitepaper for our studio’s crypto token, RootSeed, laying the groundwork for crowdfunding through tokenization, utilizing the crypto trend.
Our game documentation, addressing major pain points in the gaming industry, is under continuous refinement. It adapts to changing trends and delves deeper into game mechanics and functionality. Our approach not only challenges but alters the gaming world’s status quo. By nurturing players and enhancing their experience, we keep them engaged and playing.
We’ve successfully built our organization with minimal costs. However, to fully implement our strategy, we hire professionals to speed up the development and take the business to the next level we need to get financed – either by crowdfunding with many, or partnering with selected few.
What and How? The Strategy
Our Vision
3 Key Factors to Reach Our Goals
1. Building Our Community, Sci-Fi/Fantasy Fans, First
- It’s All About Stories: We’re kicking things off with cool stories, not just dry facts. Our interactive web platform and marketplace, The Survivors’ Camp, is where fans can dive in weekly.
- Story Part 1: We start with novels like “The Gods to Be” and “A World in Slumber“, plus a TV series.
- Story Part 2: Then, we bring in a Demo Game.
- Story Part 3: The main event – our MMORPG “Mortalis: Back to the Roots”. More on the story: https://youtu.be/JJOwPfv6K4o?si=LM2bPotdzumBGooY&t=164
- Story Part 4: We’ll keep it fresh with DLCs (Downloadable Content).
2. Unique Selling Point (USP): Earn While Playing
- RootCoin – Our In-Game Crypto: Players earn RootCoin by playing and they keep 80% of it, while the studio receives 20%. Half of the studio’s share goes to RootSeed holders. RootCoin can be traded for cool in-game items or even real money.
- Great for All Players: Even if you don’t have much time to play, you can buy RootCoin to get those in-game items from other players.
3. Crypto Token “RootSeed” – The Investor’s Perk
- Launching on Zeniq Platform (in negotiations): RootSeed is our special token.
- Passive Income for Holders: When RootCoins are made in the game, 10% of it goes to people holding RootSeed. It’s like earning money just for believing in us and investing in the game’s development at an early stage.
Potential
When you look through 2025, we are expecting 3.5 billion gamers in the world
Dr. Lisa Sue, CEO of AMD
- MMORPG Market Growth
- Big Growth Ahead: Did you know the MMORPG market is expected to grow from $22 billion to a whopping $38 billion by 2028? That’s huge!
- More statistics on player numbers and growth: https://mmo-population.com/activity
- RootSeed: Limited and Valuable
- Only So Many RootSeeds: There’s a limited number of RootSeeds available. This makes them pretty special.
- Burning to Increase Value: Sometimes, we’ll burn (or remove) some RootSeeds from the market. This makes the remaining ones more valuable.
- Profit Sharing and Buyback
- Giving Back to Investors: We’re planning to use 25% of our profit to buy back RootSeeds. This is a way to share our success with those who invest in us.
- Trading and Listing
- Making RootSeed More Tradable: When the timing is perfect, we’ll list RootSeed on brokers’ platforms. This means you can trade them more easily.
- Exciting Times for Crypto: The market is getting ready for a big wave. Crypto is becoming more popular and picking up speed, which is great news for RootSeed.
