Newspaper FAQ
How does the newspaper work in Paralives?
The New Paper publishes twice a week with 5 articles per issue. Articles are selected from the top 8 candidates based on scoring and requirements. Some articles have claimable rewards.
What rewards can I get from articles?
Articles can grant money (like the $100 coupon), teach skills, zoom to map locations, start goals, or trigger occupation events. 39 of the 65 articles have some form of reward.
What are story chains?
Some articles form multi-part series that continue across issues. The Chez Maurice hygiene scandal is a 4-part career event chain, and the Doggo rescue story unfolds over 4 flavor articles.
Do articles appear based on conditions?
Yes. Story progression articles require specific days played (Day 2, Day 4, etc.). Skill reward articles may require certain skill levels. The death notice only appears when a Parafolk dies.
