# How to play and earn?

You can play to earn $MGK on our discord, the play and earn mode is a slow game mode where each player has until 24h to take each action.

The play and earn mode of MagestiK requires that you have either at least one set of staffs from the genesis collection (you can mint one for instance, or build one from the secondary market), or 10 $MGK on your game account.

If you hold a set, the 10 $MGK you put at stake for the game are minted at the beginning of the game (thus not taken from your balance), if you do not hold a set, 10 $MGK are taken from your balance and put at stake. All $MGK put at stake during the game are unevenly distributed at the end of each play and earn game (see [Tokenomics](/magestik-whitepaper/the-magestik-token/tokenomics.md)for the details of the distribution).

At the moment play and earn games take place on the MagestiK discord -> <https://discord.gg/kZvwC9KRMx> . So first thing to do is to join and verify you are not a bot.

Then, you need to link your MultiversX wallet with the **/verify** or **/info** command. Follow the link and log in with your account, thus proving your ownership on the wallet.

Then, you need either, to hold a set of STAFF-1b295e NFT on the linked MultiversX wallet ([The genesis NFT collection](/magestik-whitepaper/nft-collections/the-genesis-nft-collection.md)) or to top up your account with $MGK -> see [Deposit MGK on your game account](/magestik-whitepaper/the-discord-bot/deposit-mgk-on-your-game-account.md)

You can use the **/info** command at anytime to see: your linked wallet, your holdings and check your account status.

Then, you need to join the play and earn player pool with the **/info** command and them by clicking on button to join the pool  (When you join the pool, this means that you can be randomly selected to play a play and earn game).

Then you have 2 options, call the **/challenge** command to start a game, or wait for other to call that command and that you are randomly selected to play a game. If there are not enough players available in the pool (already in game for instance the bot will ask you to retry at a later time).

If you are selected for a game, the bot will tag you when it is your turn to play, so, do not forget to leave the notifications on!

Enjoy!
