will your token be mined after the ico?

yes, it will be mineable after 6 months after the end of the ico:

How soon after the ICO will the project open up to players and miners?

The planned launch time is 6 months after the end of the ICO.
What use is this to a miner, if he already has a powerful PC and can play top-of-the-line games on his computer? What he can spend tokens on, if he does offer his computing power for rent?

The miner will be able to sell the earned tokens on an exchange in return for other cryptocurrencies or fiat money (real money). He will also be able to spend the tokens to purchase Playkey game keys.
I have a powerful computer. How much can I earn as a miner through your system?

A miner’s income will depend on several factors. First, the amount depends on the computer: The more powerful it is, the more value it offers. Users are willing to pay more for such a computer.

Secondly, the price will be determined by the market. A miner posts his price, and if there is user demand, then the miner will earn based on the specified price and the number of users playing on it. To precisely predict the amount now is very difficult.

With the current Playkey.net service, you can apply the following calculations: 1 hour of gaming on ultra settings (GTX 1080) costs $1. Assuming that the server will be busy 12 out of 24 hours, the revenue after deducting the commission will come to about $10 per day. At the same time, there is still the opportunity to do the old kind of mining when users are not playing, and thus to receive additional income. So in any case the income will be higher than from the usual sort of mining.
Why does a miner pay 25% to the Playkey Foundation?

The Playkey Foundation will organize the work of the community of miners, refine the platform, and advertise the service and the miners’ servers.
By what scheme are the revenues distributed among all participating miners?

A miner’s income is determined by the terms of the smart contract with a specific user. So the more users play on a miner’s computer, the higher his income. A user will be able to select a miner on his own and conclude a smart contract with him on individual terms, or enable the option of automatically searching for a miner by key parameters, first of all by distance from the user and connection quality.

It will work like the XEL miner? I mean, I put my computing power on the network but I don't create new tokens, I just receive tokens from playkey

Yes you will get rewarded for providing GPU power in tokens, it's not actually the same as mining but the thought behind it is kinda the same.
This is very similar to mining. In both cases you're renting your computing power

I'm just wondering, how can they pay approximately 1$ an hour, if the client pays ~ 10$ for a whole month of playing, or up to 70h, if I remember correctly...

Am I missing something?. Cuz it doesn't make sense to me.
