How to play Solana Life
You can start as a guest in one tap, or sign in with email to keep your character across devices. Pick a name and one of eight hand-drawn looks, and you are in the city.
Controls
- On a computer: WASD or the arrow keys walk, Space stops, E uses what is in front of you or talks to whoever is near.
- On a phone: a thumb joystick walks, tapping the street walks you there, and a Stop button halts you.
- Inside buildings the room fits the screen. Pinch or use the wheel to zoom, and drag to pan.
Your five needs
Energy, hunger, hygiene, mood and social each fall by 3 to 6 per hour, also while you are away. A meal restores 25 hunger, sleep restores 60 energy and a shower restores 30 hygiene. Each need under 25 cuts work pay and XP by 10 percent, and under 10 by 20 percent, down to a 40 percent floor.
Places in the city
Your home, Sunset Diner, the Tower office, Iron Gym, Aurora Park, the Corner market, the Town square, the Event Center, Market Row, the Token Launchpad, Town Hall and Solana Motors. Each place has its own things to do, and each lists the people inside it right now.
Getting around
There are no free rides. Buy a vehicle at Solana Motors, rent a City Bike, or pay for a cab at the Taxi stand. A car you park stays where you left it, and other players see it.
City events
Every 20 minutes one event opens somewhere in the city for 8 minutes. Be there and join to earn LIFE, XP, mood, social and a little Fame, at a cost in energy and hunger.
Levels, trophies and leaderboards
Every action feeds XP. Level 2 takes 100 XP and level 100 takes 500,000 XP, and levels have no top. Fifteen trophies track your progress. Four leaderboards rank Wealth, Level, Social and Business.
Playing with others
Dancing, volleyball, hanging out and riding along raise mood and social for everyone involved. The Friends tab lets you add friends, see who is online and where, and join a friend in one tap.
