About the Game

Welcome Mayor, to Papaya Plaza! This old tourist town isn’t what it used to be, it’s up to you to rebuild, draw back the visitors (the Beeps!), and bring the community together again. 

Papaya Plaza is a snackable slice of life game for you to get lost in. Decorate and improve the town as you see fit, to make a perfect little spot for visitors to wander and enjoy.  These beeps aren't picky, they just want to discover the next best-kept-secret!

Pizza Shops to milkshake shacks, picket fences to manicured hedgerows - there's a whole host of decorations and buildings to make the town your own. Staff your shops with villagers to earn money each day - maybe even save up for that swimming pool you've been wanting? 

With over 15 different unique villagers to help out, you're never short of a friend in Papaya Plaza. Each character has a story to tell, and oftentimes a favour to ask. Expect heartwarming, funny, and downright strange little moments as you get to know them all. Build homes and increase your town's population capacity to bring more villagers into your town.

At the end of each day your town will be scored on how far along it’s come (don’t worry, the judges are kind)! Continue to help villagers, rank the town up, and unlock new and wonderful things to build. Can you reach the coveted 5-star town ranking?
