Palia’s new Home Tours showcase some delightful and creative plots

A magical mystery Home Tour

Palia is a cozy life simulator game, and one of the best parts about setting up in Kilima Valley and adventuring through Bahari Bay is the plot customization. Every player in Palia has their own home plot, a base of operations where they can farm, craft, and cook. That plot is highly customizable, which makes the new Home Tours feature a lot of fun.

Players can submit their own plot for Home Tours, and then check out the other plots that other players have built. I am notoriously uncreative at this sort of thing; if a crafting game offers me countless tools and materials with which to build, I will usually short circuit and create a cube. Luckily, a lot of folks playing Palia have much more sophisticated minds, and I’ve been delighted by checking out some of their creations.

While the game started with just pre-made rooms, developer Singularity 6 has since added bricks, columns, floors, walls, and other basic building supplies that aren’t linked to a larger structure. I for one have not truly figured out how to make these work — but Jay Kromley managed to create Jurassic Palia. That’s right — that’s a T-Rex, made out of wooden crates aligned by a careful architect.

Osirapphir Kath created a plot called Night at the Museum, which brought back tons of Animal Crossing memories. I had a lot of fun touring the makeshift museum; the only thing that could have made it more authentic would be Blathers, the anxious owl and museum lead from Animal Crossing. While there’s no curator on staff, I appreciate the effort it took to build such a classy establishment.

For those who prefer speed, the Palia Speedway by Lady Kathleen was a highlight of my tour. The player has used giant plushies to put dragons on the raceway — which makes sense, I feel like they look quite speedy — and then gone through the effort of building custom cars and carts out of stone pieces and PalTech constructions. While the race is forever frozen in time, I love the effort that went into creating such a massive scene.

Palia’s building scene has always been stifled by the fact that a person’s lot is so limited; only they and their allowed friends can check it out. The new Home Tours feature is a solid way to explore other people’s lots and look longingly upon their creative designs. I have mostly put two building blocks next to each other and that was the height of my ambition; these other plots are a good way to get some inspiration and marvel at others’ creations.
