Tourist portal
The tourist portal draws travelers from beyond your town borders. Lyren the Elder offers the build quest after the town hall is standing.
Building the portal
- Talk to Lyren and accept the tourist portal quest.
- Take the tourist portal plot token from Lyren.
- Stake and build the tourist portal prefab.
- Find Lyren and close the quest in dialogue.
Daily visits
Each morning, tourists can arrive through the portal. They walk around town, browse shop spots (including your player shop), and leave at night.
Tourists are hand-picked characters with personality traits that shape their dialogue. They are separate from inn visitors — see Inn pool and visitors under Mechanics for the inn's two-guest rotation.
Inviting tourists to stay
If you want a tourist to become a permanent resident, offer them a house:
- Build a house plot and assign them on the management block through the appropriate housing quest flow.
- Once registered, they count toward town life like other residents.
Tourists who shop at player listings spend real gold from their pockets — a good reason to stock your shop spots with useful goods.
Tips
- Finish Your Own Shop (from Vex) before expecting much tourist spending — they buy from player shop spots.
- The portal and inn serve different roles: the inn locks story visitors for quests; the portal brings repeat tourists each day.
