About
The Sandbox is a decentralized, community-driven gaming metaverse where players build, own, and monetize gaming experiences using NFTs and the SAND utility token. The studio traces to Pixowl, founded in 2011 by Arthur Madrid and Sébastien Borget, which launched a 2D mobile version of The Sandbox in 2012 before relaunching it in 2018 as a blockchain-based voxel platform. Creators use tools such as VoxEdit and the Game Maker to design assets, wearables, and interactive experiences, then trade them on an NFT marketplace. The Sandbox operates as a subsidiary of Hong Kong-based Animoca Brands and has partnered with major brands, celebrities, and IP holders to build branded experiences inside its open metaverse.
