Homecoming Update Devlog#2 - Your New Home!

All newsPlayers around this dateRead on Steam

Hello Prospectors!

We're back with another look at the upcoming Homecoming Update, a free update that will bring new characters, new features, and more ways to build your life in Alaska.

Remember the sister we showed you in our previous devlog? Well, now we can tell you a little more about what she'll actually do in the game!

Zofia returns from Poland and becomes an important part of your growing business. She won't just be there for the story - she'll actually help you manage things while you're busy with your own adventures.

She'll be able to help with the Polish Store, including collecting earnings, picking up goods, and taking care of employee salaries.

Basically, while you're out searching for gold, someone needs to make sure the business doesn't fall apart. 😄

🏡 Finally... Our Own Home!

Until now, your "home" in Alaska has been... well... A room in the hotel.

Not exactly the most impressive place to call home, right?

That's about to change.
With the Homecoming Update, you'll finally get your own house in town!

No more coming back to the hotel just to sleep in the manager's room. You'll have your own place, your own space, and a proper home to return to after a long day of mining.

🌄 A Room With a View

And where did we decide to build it?

Right on top of a hill overlooking the town.

Because if you're going to have your own house, you might as well have a nice view!

From up there, you'll be able to look across the town and watch everything you've built from above. It's also a pretty good place to just sit back and enjoy the scenery.

...And maybe keep an eye on the town. You never know what might be happening down there. 👀


Here!

🏠 More Than Just a House

Your new home will become an important part of your life in Alaska, while Zofia will help you manage your growing business.

We're working on more content, features, and story elements that will expand your life beyond the mines and give you even more reasons to explore, build, and grow.

More about Polish Shop and family members will be revealed in next devlogs!
Stay tuned for more details!
