New Palia Update Introduces Board Games and Expanded Furniture Color Options

In the enchanting world of Palia, a crafting game that unfolds in a picturesque fantasy setting, humans have recently made a comeback. Here, they coexist with amiable elves and helpful robots. Throughout its beta phase, Singularity 6, the game’s developer, has been busy enhancing the game by introducing new activities in places like the underground market of Kilima Village and the sprawling Bahari Bay. These upgrades are designed to entice players to explore this magical realm. However, nothing quite compares to the comfort of home, and with Wednesday’s Holiday Homestead patch, players are in for some exciting new features to enjoy in their own homesteads.

In Palia, players possess a plot of land where they can unleash their creativity—most commonly crafting charming houses and setting up their bases. But dive into the community spaces and you’ll find diverse creations, from massive dinosaur sculptures to whimsical movie theaters and serene forest glades. Back in 2023, during the debut Winterlights celebration, equivalent to Kilima’s version of Christmas, players had the chance to earn festive decorations such as a holiday tree and glimmering strings of lights.

This festive season, Singularity 6 is tapping into the nostalgia of gathering with friends for board game nights. Players can look forward to purchasing dice sets and two distinct board designs—one classic checkered pattern and another echoing the fun of Snakes and Ladders—from town cook Reth, stationed at the bustling underground black market. Players are encouraged to invent their own rule sets, and it’ll be fascinating to see what unique games the community devises.

In addition to these game elements, players can indulge in a variety of cosmetic options. With hundreds of new items now available for repainting, including the slick Investigator set, there’s an abundance of ways to customize. Decorating is a beloved, albeit time-consuming, aspect of Palia—thanks to the wide array of furniture sets. The introduction of additional color variations enriches this experience further. Plus, with the addition of 16 new curtains and drapes, players can put the perfect finishing touches on their interiors.

The board game elements, along with the new curtains and furniture color options, are permanent fixtures in the game, but there’s also exciting seasonal content to enjoy. For the Winterlight season, players can engage in fun activities, like snowball fights in the town square. Looking ahead, players can anticipate another exciting Maji Market and the introduction of a mysterious new area known as Elderwood.
