Illuvium is often referred to as the first AAA title in crypto gaming. However, Illuvium is not a single game, but a suite of games consisting of different genres that are thematically and economically linked within the same universe.

Here is a quick summary of each of the games being built:

Illuvium: Overworld – This is the flagship game. An RPG centered around strong visual and narrative hooks. Here players will explore a planet they have crash-landed on. As they fight for survival, they battle and collect deity-like creatures: Illuvials.
Illuvium: Zero – This is a city-building game. Players can buy land to gather resources used in-game, in both Zero and Overworld. They can also scan the biodata of Illuvials and build “blueprints” for Illuvial cosmetics.
Illuvium: Arena – This is where players can test their skills in (PvE) survival mode or go head to head in ranked (PvP) modes. Arena gameplay falls within the auto battler genre.

With respect to these games, there are 3 primary tokens you can use when interacting with the Illuvium ecosystem:

ILV: The governance token. Staking ILV entitles the holder to revenue distribution. When staking, you can choose to earn sILV2. The total supply of ILV is 10m tokens.
sILV2: This can be claimed by stakers instead of ILV, and unlike ILV, it has no vesting schedule. It can be used to purchase and craft in-game items and power-ups. It can also be used in some Illuvium sales. Every time sILV2 is claimed and minted, it reduces the overall supply of ILV.
Fuel: This is the collective name that will encompass various ERC20 tokens, which can be mined from land in Illuvium: Zero or emitted by the DAO. It is a primary resource in the Illuvium ecosystem to buy and craft in-game items and power-ups. sILV2 will not be used to swap for fuel. Instead, sILV2 can act as an alternative to fuel pegged to the price of ILV. Fuel will not be fixed to USD in-game. Pricing will be at a fixed amount of fuel.
