How it works
Each Player has a green Home Tour Board next to the entrance gate of their Housing Plot. This allows players to browse homes available to tour, submit their own plot, or access the Home Tours store. This green board is not to be confused for the blue Visting Board on the other side of the entrance, which is how Players can join the live plots of their friends, party members, or other players on their server in order to play together on the same lot.
Home Tours allow players to publicly share a housing plot and browse other players' shared housing plots. A Home Tours Event begins each week, allowing Players to share one selected plot anytime during the event. Once their entry is submitted, other players are able to visit an instanced version of that plot. These visitors can explore a single-player version of that home even when the owner of the plot is offline. This submission cannot be retracted or re-submitted during the event.
When touring a home in the Tour Board, visitors can leave emoji reactions to express their admiration for the plot. Each week features four of the five possible emoji reactions. Receiving these reactions allows the owner of the plot to work towards nameplates based on the number of reactions they get. At the end of the weekend, the Home Tours Event will reset, entries and reactions will be cleared, and players will receive any nameplates they have earned over the week.
The Tour Board
- Spotlight: This tab allows you to browse the latest Show Home and learn about Palia's newest features.
- Home Tours: This is where you can access other players' Home Tours. Homes can be sorted by trending, new, or random. You can also access a particular player's home by searching their name. Select the home you want to view and press "Tour Home" to enter an online version of their plot.
- My Home: This is where you can submit one of your home plots for others to see, check the reactions from other players, track your progress towards special nameplates based on the reactions you receive, and decide if you want to use Tour Tickets to have your home Featured. The top right corner counts down the amount of time left in the current Home Tours Event. You can only submit one home plot every week, so choose wisely.
