Palia 0.190 Patch Notes: All New Content, Adjustments & Bug Fixes
The latest patch update continues the Spring fever, centering on home improvements and theme park shenanigans. The v0.190 update, also known as the Tinker & Timber update, is a smaller content update for the cozy MMO with a few new additions and plenty of adjustments, optimizations, and bug fixes.
The v0.190 patch update is themed after "crafty creatives and arduous adventurers, offering new ways to decorate" and turning their Housing Plot into their "personal playpen." The update adds two new Decor sets, the Builder's and Sandbox sets, which both can be acquired from Tish's Furniture-Making Store and unlocked through Inspiration when crafting.
The Premium Store will see new items added to the store for this update, ranging from new outfits, Gliders, Tool Skins, emotes, a Landscape environment and a new fluffy pet! Palians can visit the Premium Store to check out the latest offerings and their pricing but don't leave the Premium Store just yet.
A new gifting feature was introduced in this update, the Mystery Outfit Gifting, which Palians can gift their in-game pals "with Premium outfits, fully wrapped and at a massive discount!" But without ruining too much, let's look at the complete and detailed patch notes for the Tinker & Timber update, the v0.190 for Palia:
Housing & Decor – New Builder's Decor Set:
- Tinker with some timber using the Builder’s Set Decor.
- This set is packed with bridges, tracks, tools, and other industrial decor geared for you to craft your coziest path.
- The set contains 21 items of which the recipes for the Builder’s Bridge #1, Builder’s Hand Saw and Builder’s Mine Tracks #1 are acquired as part of a Starter Pack and the remaining recipes are unlocked through Inspiration when crafting.
Housing & Decor – New Sandbox Decor Set:
- It’s Field Day in Palia… but way more cozy.
- Head to the Housing Store Store and purchase the Sandbox Signpost, Sandbox Bouncy Shroom, and Sandbox Timer to get started designing the high-octane, totally frenetic… or absolutely chill obstacle course of your dreams.
Premium Store – Mystery Outfit Gifting (NEW FEATURE):
- Mystery Outfit Gifting allows you to surprise your Palia besties with Premium outfits, fully wrapped and at a massive discount!
- Our first gifting feature is designed to streamline the Gift-giving process to focus purely on the joy of gifting a lil’ surprise, eliminating guesswork and hassle while letting your thoughtful gesture shine through.
- Since every Mystery Outfit is worth more Palia Coins than you pay, you can be confident knowing you (and your friend!) are always getting a great deal, so here's how it works:
- Visit the new Premium Store and navigate to the Featured section.
- Select Mystery Outfit Gifting for 795 Palia Coins.
- Each Mystery Gift sends your friend a random Premium Outfit:
- That they don’t already own
- That has a base price that’s always greater than the price of the gift (e.g. more than 795 Coins)
- Every outfit has an equal chance - so each top tier outfit is just as likely as any other outfit.
- Choose a friend from your Friends List, add an optional personalized message, and confirm your purchase using Palia Coins.
- Your friend will receive a notification with their surprise Gift!
Gameplay – Refreshed Log-in Rewards & Maji Market Returns!:
- Maji Market returns in the Tinker & Timber update!
- Players can explore the night market for a week between 1st and 8th April 2025.
- As always, log-in at least once between 26th March and 8th April 2025 at 10 am PT / 1 pm ET / 5 pm UTC and again between 9th and 21st April 2025 at 10 am PT / 1 pm ET / 5 pm UTC to collect some free rewards!
