Every place in Melino

Not yet functional

What isn't working (or isn't known) yet

Early Access ships a few places that are deliberately closed, and a few facts no source documents. Rather than guessing, here's exactly what's unfinished or unverified in build 0.1.8b:

• Edwards & Co. Factory has no current functionality — it's boarded up and marked as an office building on the map, but nothing happens there. No source confirms whether it opens in a future update; our 'closed' label is a description, not a promise.
• Several commercial lots ship intentionally closed or empty so they can open in later updates — the devs' own example is a pet shop opening when pets arrive.
• A Graveyard lot-type icon exists, but no graveyard location or gameplay is documented anywhere.
• The total lot count of the shipped Early Access build is unverified — the only number on record is a pre-launch plan of 50–70 lots, public and residential.
• The Lighthouse's district is not stated in its infobox; the wiki only says it's 'closest to the Industrial district', so we don't pin it to one.
• Castle Plaza's own infobox says lot type 'Park' while the lot-type table uses it as the Plaza example — we show both instead of inventing a resolution.
• Premium Gym's usage cost, opening hours for most shops, whether shop upper floors are playable, and the full workplace-to-job mapping are all undocumented.
• Empty-lot locations are unpublished: the two price lists agree on which prices exist but not where each lot sits, and the wiki's 8 empty-lot markers may or may not match the 10 listings.
• Prices are Early Access build 1 measurements from two community sources and can change in later builds; spelling differences between sources (Stanton/Stanlon, Dacier/Darcier, Lighthouse/Wake Residence) are kept per source rather than merged.
• Starting money is disputed: wikily states P30,000 for the eight starter households, but a P644 empty lot with '39,355 remaining' in one guide implies a P40,000 starting stack — neither is confirmed.

Melino places — FAQ

Where is the Sunday market in Paralives?

The Weekend Market runs every Sunday at Castle Plaza in Old Town. Rotating stalls sell decorative oddities and art, and the Oddities Shop stall always has 2 unique items you can't buy in Build Mode.

When is the treasure hunt in Paralives?

Every Thursday, around Castle Plaza in Old Town. Look for red chests in good condition — they contain random Build Mode items, not collectibles, so they can't be donated to the Museum.

What are Community Bundles in Paralives?

The donation system at the ruined Community Center in Old Town: 15 bundles across 4 categories (Art, Food, Funding, Technology). You donate paintings, group portions of food, paradimes (up to P500,000) or computer gear, and each bundle pays a reward such as the Water Recycler or the Museum Castle Miniature.

Can you go inside workplaces in Paralives?

No — all Early Access careers and schools are rabbit holes, meaning your Para disappears inside for the shift. But every job ties to a physical building: the Hospital, the schools, the Fire Station, shops, and named office buildings like the Music Production Studio or Mapple Web Inc.

Can you buy a house in Paralives?

Yes — nine built homes (P24,848–P71,742) and ten empty lots (P644–P11,980) are purchasable in Early Access build 1. The remaining 25 residences belong to town households and are marked 'Occupied by' on the map; the eight starter households begin with P30,000 and no lot, so any empty lot or budget home is affordable from the start.

How many lots are in Melino?

Every source agrees on 44 total lots, but the breakdown differs: the wiki map shows 33 house markers + 8 empty lots + 3 named spots; wikily's data mine lists 42 templates under a 44-lot headline; and the 2026-05 player guides count 9 purchasable homes + 10 empty lots + 25 occupied residences. The page shows all three framings side by side.
