# Item Rarity

There are several item rarities in Blockchain Cuties Universe. 

Currently, there are 6 rarities: 

* Common
* <mark style="color:green;">Uncommon</mark>
* <mark style="color:blue;">Rare</mark>
* <mark style="color:purple;">Epic</mark>
* <mark style="color:yellow;">Legendary</mark>
* <mark style="color:orange;">Unique</mark>

All of these rarities are color-coded in the game as the item's background and a tag in the item attributes

The rarity of items is directly tied to their power. The higher the rarity of the item, the more powerful it is, culminating in Unique items that are usually the most powerful items, but quite scarce and usually hard to craft or acquire through farming.&#x20;
