As a RETURNEE, I think the new Campaign mode in Splinterlands is a fantastic addition. It adds a much-needed layer of lore and storytelling, which really deepens player immersion. The structured progression creates a stronger emotional connection to the game world, and that’s something we've been wanting for a long time.
What stands out most is how the Campaign mode supports onboarding — offering free NFT cards gives new and returning players a low-risk way to explore the mechanics and test if they enjoy the gameplay. It’s not just a smart design move; it shows the developers are thinking about long-term player engagement. Overall, it makes Splinterlands feel more alive and accessible than ever.
