Add reCAPTCHA in your Unity game

Learn how to integrate reCATPCHA in your game

Overview#

This is a sample project to showcase the Openfort integration with Google reCAPTCHA V3, a system to help you protect your sites from fraudulent activities, spam, and abuse. In this sample, we will activate reCAPTCHA verification every time the user tries to perform a key action like authenticating or minting an NFT.

The sample includes:

• ugs-backend

  Some Cloud Code JS scripts to interact with the Openfort API from UGS BaaS.

• unity-client

  A Unity sample game that connects to ugs-backend through Cloud Code Client SDK. It uses Openfort Unity SDK to have full compatibility with ugs-backend responses.

Workflow diagram#

Prerequisites#

• Get started with Openfort

  • Sign in or sign up and create a new dashboard project

• Get started with UGS

  • Complete basic prerequisites
  • Create a project

• Get started with GitHub Pages

  • Create a repository for your site
  • Create your site

Setup Openfort dashboard#

• Add a Contract

  This sample requires an NFT contract to run. We use 0xbed6a05ce8719bc00db1cc81a814192c82be1bb1 (NFT contract deployed in 80002 Amoy). You can use it for this tutorial:

  

• Add a Policy

  We aim to cover gas fees for users. Set a new gas policy:

  

  Now, add a rule so our contract uses this policy:

  

Set up reCAPTCHA V3#

Go to reCAPTCHA v3 Admin Console to register a new site. Choose Switch to create a classic key if the option is available:

Enter a Label name, select the reCAPTCHA type and enter your GitHub Pages URL as a Domain:

Accept the terms of service and choose Submit:

Copy the Site Key and the Secret Key and save them somewhere safe:

Set up ugs-backend#

• Fill in environment variables#

  • Retrieve the API Secret key and fill in the openfortApiKey variable.
  • Use the same API Secret key to fill the openfortApiKey variable.
  • Retrieve the NFT Contract API ID and fill in the nftContractId variable.
  • Retrieve the Policy API ID and fill in the policyId variable.
  • Fill in the secretKey with your reCAPTCHA secret key.

• Deploy to UGS#

  Follow the official documentation steps to deploy each and all of the Cloud Code scripts.

Set up unity-client#

• Link to UGS project#

  Follow the official documentation steps to link the unity-client to your UGS Project.

• Fill in needed variables#

  On the Main scene, select the ReCaptchaController game object and fill in your reCAPTCHA site key:

  

Build to WebGL#

IMPORTANT: You need to build this sample to the root folder of the GitHub Pages repository.

In Unity go to File --> Build Settings, select Web platform and choose Build:

Find your GitHub Pages repository root folder and choose Select Folder:

After the build is completed, go to your GitHub Pages repository URL and you should see the Sign in panel:

Open the browser console to check that reCAPTCHA V3 is loaded and ready:

Click the Sign in button and after some authentication-related logs, the Mint panel should appear. In the console logs, we should see a positive reCAPTCHA verification score. Because we passed the reCAPTCHA verification, an Openfort player should have been created:

If you click the Mint button, the game will go through another reCAPTCHA verification. After a brief period, you should see the NFT minted panel with the Openfort player account address in a button:

Click on the Address button to open Etherscan and see that the transaction is confirmed:

Code walkthrough#

All this is thanks to the ReCaptcha.jslib plugin located in the Unity client, which allows the execution of reCAPTCHA V3 from the client. The .jslib methods are called from the ReCaptchaController.cs.

Then, when reCAPTCHA V3 gets the response token from the execution, we validate it in the backend through VerifyReCaptcha.js

Conclusion#

Upon completing the above steps, your Unity game will be fully integrated with Openfort and Google reCAPTCHA V3. Always remember to test every feature before deploying to guarantee a flawless player experience.
