# FAQ

## Does Yakkamon mean Sunflower Land gets less attention?

**No. Sunflower Land is not slowing down — and Yakkamon is part of how it grows.**

We understand the concern. It's a fair thing to ask when a team announces a second game. Here's the honest answer.

### Sunflower Land is still shipping

In the same six months we've been building Yakkamon, Sunflower Land committed to a **2-year roadmap**, open source contributors have gone **up**, and our release cadence has kept climbing. The work speaks for itself — it's all public, and you can watch it land every week.

### A creature collector doesn't belong inside a farming game

Sunflower Land is a big, mature, complex game. Bolting a full creature collector onto it would take years and slow both games down. Spinning Yakkamon out as its own project lets us build and iterate far faster — and lets Sunflower Land keep being Sunflower Land.

### Both games grow the same ecosystem

There is **no new token**. Yakkamon runs on **$FLOWER**, the same token used across our games. More games means more places to use $FLOWER, more players in the ecosystem, and more reasons to be here. This isn't a competing project — it's the same ecosystem getting bigger.

### We're growing the team to meet the demand

We're actively looking for more **designers, developers, moderators, and community managers**. Our philosophy hasn't changed: trust the team, keep it lean, and scale when the work calls for it. A lean team is how we've always moved fast, and we add people when it's needed rather than ahead of it.

### 5+ years of shared foundations

This team has worked together for over five years. What takes some projects a year, we can do in three months — because the architecture, tooling, and hard-won lessons carry directly from one game to the other. We're not building things twice.

### AI handles the work that used to eat our time

Recent advances in AI coding have let us streamline a lot of the unglamorous work that used to consume days: migrations, reporting, reward distribution, moderation, and bot detection. That's time going straight back into building both games.

{% hint style="success" %}
**The short version:** more games, more $FLOWER utility, a bigger team, and shared foundations that make both games faster to build. Sunflower Land is live today — go see for yourself.
{% endhint %}

## Is there a new token?

No. Yakkamon uses **$FLOWER**, the same token used across our games. You can start collecting it now — early deposits earn pre-registration points and can be spent in-game or withdrawn tax-free once you have access (see [$FLOWER Deposits](/pre-registration/flower-deposits.md)).

## When does Yakkamon launch?

Early access opens in **Q4 2026**, rolling out in waves. Higher-ranked trainers enter first (see [Early Access and Rewards](/pre-registration/early-access-airdrop.md)).

## Do I need to be an existing Sunflower Land player?

No. Yakkamon is a completely new game and anyone can pre-register with just an email. Sunflower Land players are very welcome, but nothing carries over as a requirement.

## What's the difference between the Monster Egg, the airdrop, and the free mint?

This is the most common mix-up, so here it is in one place. There are **three separate rewards**, won three different ways:

|                        | 🥚 **Monster Egg**                   | 🎁 **Trainer Point airdrop** | 🆓 **Ronin free mint**                    |
| ---------------------- | ------------------------------------ | ---------------------------- | ----------------------------------------- |
| **How you get it**     | Just sign up                         | Finish top 5,000 on points   | Mint it on October 1st                    |
| **How many**           | Up to 500,000                        | 5,000                        | 10,000                                    |
| **Decided by**         | Sign-up order                        | Your points rank             | Verified whitelist — one mint per trainer |
| **Is it an NFT?**      | **No**                               | Yes                          | Yes                                       |
| **Need a wallet?**     | **No**                               | Yes                          | Yes                                       |
| **How it reaches you** | Appears on your farm when you log in | Airdropped at early access   | Minted to your wallet on October 1st      |

{% hint style="info" %}
**You can have all three.** They don't compete and one doesn't replace another. Signing up gets you an egg, earning points can get you an airdrop, and minting on October 1st can get you a minted monster.
{% endhint %}

## Is my sign-up Monster Egg an NFT?

**No.** The egg you get for signing up is an in-game item, not an NFT. You don't mint it, you don't need a wallet for it, and it isn't part of the [free mint](/pre-registration/free-mint.md) or the [NFT Airdrop](/pre-registration/legendary-founder-nfts.md). It just appears on your farm the first time you log into the game.

## Do I need to mint on October 1st to get my Monster Egg?

**No.** They're unrelated. Your egg is already yours from signing up and arrives on your farm automatically. The [free mint](/pre-registration/free-mint.md) is a separate, optional event on October 1st for a different thing — an NFT monster.

## Does signing up early get me early access?

**No.** Signing up early gets you one thing: a better **egg type**. It does not give you early access, reserve a spot, guarantee a Monster NFT, or put you ahead of anyone on the leaderboard.

Early access goes to the **top 100,000 trainers on points**. To get in — and to get in early — you have to earn points and climb (see [Early Access and Rewards](/pre-registration/early-access-airdrop.md)).

## So what does signing up early actually get me?

A better egg tier, and nothing more:

| Sign-up position      | Monster Egg |
| --------------------- | ----------- |
| **1 – 10,000**        | 💎 Platinum |
| **10,001 – 25,000**   | 🥇 Gold     |
| **25,001 – 50,000**   | 🥈 Silver   |
| **50,001 – 100,000**  | 🥉 Bronze   |
| **100,001 – 500,000** | Basic       |

A Platinum egg is a nicer starting egg. It is not a head start on the leaderboard.

{% hint style="info" %}
**These eggs are not NFTs and they are not airdropped.** Your Monster Egg simply appears on your farm the first time you log into the game — there's nothing to claim and no wallet needed. It is completely separate from the [NFT Airdrop](/pre-registration/legendary-founder-nfts.md).
{% endhint %}

## I signed up late — did I miss out?

No. Your egg tier is set, but everything that matters is still fully open to you. Rank is earned, not reserved — a Basic egg holder who earns points daily will finish above a Platinum egg holder who signed up first and never came back.

## Is the NFT airdrop first come, first served?

No. The **5,000 Monster NFTs** go to the top 5,000 trainers on the **points leaderboard**, not the first 5,000 to sign up (see [NFT Airdrop](/pre-registration/legendary-founder-nfts.md)).

## What is the egg counter on the pre-registration page?

That's the **Monster Egg** counter — it's tracking egg tiers only. It is not an early-access counter and it is not counting down Monster NFTs. When a tier fills up, the only thing you've missed is that egg type (see [Early Access and Rewards](/pre-registration/early-access-airdrop.md)).

## Which network is Yakkamon on?

**Ronin** — the same network the Monster NFT free mint runs on (see [Free Mint](/pre-registration/free-mint.md)).
