One Palworld player has built an elaborate labyrinth in the game. Palworld's immersive world is home to many hostile creatures, namely Pals, that can attack players in their every encounter. Therefore, it would be wise to build a functional base to survive invaders and settle down crafting benches that can be used to manufacture weapons.
Palworld is one of the biggest surprises of 2024, with the survival game averaging more than 670,000 daily active players. It has recently reached another major milestone, surpassing 15 million sales across Steam and Xbox. As for Palworld's Steam rating, it's currently at 94% very positive with over 229,000 reviews, which is quite impressive for an indie title. It looks like the beloved adventure game will continue to make the headlines in the weeks ahead.
A Palworld player known on Reddit as NinjaDood has created a huge labyrinth using stone walls. This square-shaped, randomized labyrinth has a defined start and endpoint, featuring two hidden chests that can be found somewhere between walls. It even has a roof that would make traveling between sections even more stressful. According to the player, they will soon put a second floor on that roof.
Palworld's Unique Builds Continue to Impress
Palworld has sparked creativity in the video game community by allowing them to make one-of-a-kind structures, like the Great Pyramid of Giza and the Colosseum. Despite the limitations of the building system, gamers have constructed intricate bases, some of which are impervious to raids. In fact, Palworld players put their heads together and created a Reddit page dedicated to custom-builds, as there are so many designs deserving of celebration, with this maze being just one of them.
Many Palworld players aim to establish a functional base to settle in the game's world as soon as possible. However, after laying out all the foundations, they will have to deal with some limitations, such as the lack of a flat roof option and decorative items. The players who spend time building structures in the game think Palworld desperately needs several quality-of-life features, including the ability to move furniture. Luckily, Pocket Pair has shared a roadmap, which teases improvements to the building system for its beloved survival game.
As per the roadmap shared by Pocket Pair, Palworld will receive big updates at intervals and bring various content that can keep players busy for a long time. For instance, it will expand the map to include new areas where players may encounter unique Pals. There are plenty of gameplay features, permanent modes, and improvements to the building system on the way. Additionally, the roadmap says Palworld will introduce raid bosses, which are expected to be the pinnacle of the endgame content. Until these additions come, players will need to continue being creative, coming up with interesting builds like this maze.
