Access to the Grafter update is now available through the InDev branch on Steam. Details below.
Grafter update enters InDev
The second tier tenant and furniture pack awaits with our next major update, the Grafter Update. Now available for testing through the InDev Branch!
What is InDev?
InDev is a separate branch on Steam that gives players access to updates earlier while they are still in development. It's a great way to try out new features early whilst also helping to make updates release as polished as possible. Whilst InDev contains the majority of the content available in the upcoming Free Build update, players who opt-in should expect bugs, performance issues and some missing features.
What's in the Grafter Update?
The Grafter Update adds the mid tier tenant, the Grafter. The Grafter is a cleaner and higher paying tenant, but requires a better quality of house to live in.
Adding value to your property is easier now with the introduction of an entirely new catalogue of furniture. Players can unlock this catalogue by having a fully satisfied Lout tenant stay at their property.
Renting mechanics have also been enhanced. Players can now pick between 3 separate tenants to move into their property each day. This is the first step towards us implementing multiple tenants and properties further down the line.
