I am an active player in several [Hive](https://hive.io/)-based games including all the games on the [Arcade Colony](https://arcadecolony.com/) platform.  https://arcadecolony.com/ Among the games available on Arcade Colony, my favorites are **[Splinterlands](https://splinterlands.com/register?ref=libertycrypto27)** and **[Moon Karts](https://moonkarts.arcadecolony.com/)** because they are games that I enjoy playing, and in fact, I play them almost every day. ||| |-|-| In general, I don't like and am not attracted to casino games because I don't like games where the house has a disproportionate advantage over the player and where luck plays an important role. I made an exception for [Stake House Den](https://stakehouseden.arcadecolony.com/) because it is not a traditional casino. In fact, Stake House Den is a **web3 casino** based on **NFT**s and **tokens** ([COLONY] (https://hive-engine.com/trade/COLONY) and [SCRIPT](https://hive-engine.com/trade/SCRIPT)), where the "game coin" is an in-game item called **Hot Sauce**, which cannot be purchased or transferred but can be produced over time by **staking NFT**s.  https://stakehouseden.arcadecolony.com/play In summary: To play the three games on Stake House Den, you must have a minimum of **10 Hot Sauce**.  **Hot Sauce** is an **in-game item** that cannot be sold or transferred. Hot Sauce is produced automatically over time by **staking NFTs** in the **Refrigerator** section.  For **each NFT staked**, you must have **2 [SCRIPT](https://hive-engine.com/trade/SCRIPT) staked**. The **reward system** has been active since July 3, 2025, and is based on [COLONY](https://hive-engine.com/trade/COLONY) tokens. In a previous post of mine about Stakehouse Den, I showed how to stake cards to produce Hot Sauce and also explained, with some examples, the mechanism behind Hot Sauce production. ||Post Link: [Stake House Den: Focus on Hot Sauce Production & Hot Sauce Factors (ENG/ITA)](https://peakd.com/hive-146620/@libertycrypto27/stake-house-den-focus-on-hot-sauce-production-hot-sauce-factors-engita-l8e)| |-|-| To date, I have purchased **55 LADYLUCK** packs. I have **130 SCRIPT Staked** = I have staked **65 NFTs** to produce Hot Sauce. I produce **600 Hot Sauce** per day. I upgraded my **Refrigerator to level 4** to have a **Hot Sauce Cap = 31250**.  My current **main goal** on Stake House Den is to increase Hot Sauce production to at least **1000 Hot Sauce per day**. **My current strategy is not to play but to accumulate Hot Sauce to use when and IF the COLONY token rewards for gaming activity will be increased.** In fact, at the moment, the gaming rewards are really too low to justify the expense of purchasing LADYLUCK packs or NFTs to stake. In a previous post, I shared a detailed analysis of the rewards I received playing BlackJack, highlighting the big difference between the rewards for playing Moon Karts in relation to fuel consumed and the rewards for playing Stake House Den in relation to hot sauce consumed. ||Post Link: [Stake House Den: Refrigerator Upgrade, Blackjack Rewards Analysis & Hot Sauce vs Fuel Considerations (ENG/ITA)](https://peakd.com/hive-146620/@libertycrypto27/stake-house-den-refrigerator-upgrade-blackjack-rewards-analysis-hot-sauce-vs-fuel-considerations-engita-5em)| |-|-| To date, the development team has always listened to players' feedback. At the end of August, I wrote my feedback in the Stakehouseden channel on Discord, and other players expressed the same concerns as me about the current reward system.  In the next image, you can read the response I received.  This is just my personal prediction, but I am convinced that the rewards will be adjusted positively in the future, which is why I have chosen not to play until and if the game rewards are adjusted. I also want to accumulate Hot Sauce to use when the Jackpot feature will be activated.  https://splinterlands.gitbook.io/stakehouse-den-whitepaper/reward-pools To increase my Hot Sauce production, I purchased **10 LADYLUCK packs** today. Based on the market values of HIVE tokens and SCRIPT tokens, I calculated the lowest cost per pack based on the different purchase options available.  Today, September 17, 2025, the **lowest cost per pack** can be obtained by purchasing LADYLUCK packs in the **Arcade Colony Shop** using [SCRIPT](https://hive-engine.com/trade/SCRIPT) tokens purchased through the **SWAP** feature of the [SCRIPT:SWAP.HIVE pool](https://beeswap.dcity.io/swap?input=SWAP.HIVE&output=SCRIPT).  To purchase **40 SCRIPT**, I spent **52.59 SWAP.HIVE**.  https://beeswap.dcity.io/swap?input=SWAP.HIVE&output=SCRIPT Then I transferred 40 SCRIPT from my Hive Engine wallet to my in-game wallet.  I purchased **10 LADYLUCK packs** in the Arcade Colony Shop for **40 SCRIPT**.  https://arcadecolony.com/shop/ladyluck I also purchased **50 GOLD FLUX + 50 LEGENDARY FLUX**, spending a total of **9 SCRIPT**. ||| |-|-| |https://arcadecolony.com/shop/gold-flux|https://arcadecolony.com/shop/legendary-flux| Then I went to https://stakehouseden.arcadecolony.com/play and clicked on **MENU**  Then I clicked on **MY PACKS**  Then I clicked on **OPEN PACK**   In the next few images, you can see the **50 cards** I found inside the 10 LADYLUCK packs.    I had much better luck with the previous 10 LADYLUCK packs I opened 15 days ago because today I only found 1 legendary card, whereas fifteen days ago I found 4 legendary cards, including one gold foil. But that's okay, and I hope to have better luck in the future. From the MY CARDS section, I combined some cards I had staked with the new copies I found today in the LADYLUCK packs I opened. For example, I unstaked my third-level Joker card consisting of 7 NFTs that produces 140 Hot Sauce per day.   I combined my Level 3 Joker card with the single Joker card I found today, which alone can produce 2 Hot Sauce per day.    Then I staked the resulting card from the combination in the REFRIGERATOR section.   If, instead of merging, I had chosen to simply stake Level 3 Joker cards (7 BCX) and Level 1 Joker cards (1 BCX): - I would have produced a total of **142 Hot Sauce per day** - I would have occupied **two staking slots** Thanks to the **merge**: - I staked 1 level 3 Joker consisting of 8 BCX - I produce **160 Hot Sauce per day** instead of 142 - I occupied only **one staking slot**  Before optimizing my Hot Sauce production through merging, unstaking, and staking my cards, I was producing **600 Hot Sauce per day**. After unstaking, merging, and staking, my Hot Sauce production increased, and I now produce **708.1 Hot Sauce per day**, an increase of +108.1 Hot Sauce per day.  I hope I have given you useful info and thank you for taking the time to read my post :)  ## A Selection of my previous Arcade Colony/Stake House Den posts  |||| |-|-|-| |[Stake House Den: Card Merging, Card Staking, and Hot Sauce Production Now Live!
