Legacy Game Migration to Blockchain

A technical execution plan to port your existing game's economy, assets, and user profiles onto secure, scalable blockchain infrastructure without disrupting your live player base.
Chainscore © 2026
overview
SECURE FOUNDATIONS

Custom Smart Contract Development

Production-ready smart contracts built for security, gas efficiency, and scalability.

We architect and deploy custom smart contracts that form the core logic of your Web3 application. Our focus is on security-first development using audited patterns from OpenZeppelin and rigorous internal testing to prevent exploits and vulnerabilities.

Deliver a secure, auditable, and gas-optimized contract suite in weeks, not months.

  • Protocol Development: Build custom logic for DeFi (DEX, lending, staking), NFTs (ERC-721A, ERC-1155), DAOs, and more.
  • Gas Optimization: Write efficient Solidity 0.8+ code to minimize user transaction costs by up to 40%.
  • Security & Audits: Implement formal verification, unit/integration tests, and prepare for third-party audits from firms like CertiK or Quantstamp.
  • Full Lifecycle Support: From design and development to deployment on EVM chains (Ethereum, Polygon, Arbitrum) and ongoing maintenance.

PROVEN METHODOLOGY

Our Migration Framework

A structured, four-phase approach to migrate your legacy game economy to blockchain with minimal disruption and maximum player retention. We handle the technical complexity so you can focus on your community.

01

Architecture & Tokenomics Design

We design a custom blockchain architecture and tokenomics model that mirrors your existing in-game economy. This includes mapping legacy currencies to fungible tokens (ERC-20) and items to NFTs (ERC-721/1155) while preserving player equity.

STRUCTURED APPROACH

Our 4-Phase Migration Process

A proven, methodical framework to migrate your legacy game to blockchain with zero downtime, full asset security, and predictable outcomes.

01

Phase 1: Discovery & Architecture

We conduct a deep technical audit of your existing game, mapping assets, economies, and user flows. The output is a detailed migration blueprint, including tokenomics design (ERC-20/721/1155), L1/L2 selection, and a phased go-live strategy.

Phase 2: Smart Contract & Backend Development

Our engineers build the core blockchain infrastructure: custom smart contracts for in-game assets, secure minting logic, and a robust backend orchestrator. All contracts follow OpenZeppelin standards and are built for gas efficiency.

Phase 3: Integration & Player Migration

We seamlessly integrate the new blockchain layer with your existing game servers and databases. We implement a non-custodial wallet solution and a managed migration portal for players to claim their new on-chain assets without losing progress.
