About Paralives Wiki Guide

About This Site

Paralives Wiki Guide is an unofficial, fan-created game guide and wiki for Paralives at paralives-wiki.com. We focus on Early Access play: what to do in week one, how systems connect, and where official information lives when patches change numbers or features.

We are not affiliated with, sponsored by, or endorsed by Alex Massé, Paralives, or any official game publisher. “Paralives” and related trademarks belong to their respective owners. For game bugs, refunds, or account issues, use official Steam or developer channels — not this site.

Who Maintains This Site

Paralives Wiki Guide is edited and hosted by a small independent maintainer—not the Paralives studio. We play in Early Access, follow official patch notes, and rewrite pages when mechanics shift (recent focus: patch 0.1.5 save safety, Steam Cloud, and mod toggles).

This is a community passion project, not a corporate wiki. Correction replies are usually within a few days. Email chaoge.design@gmail.com or use our Contact page.

How We Write Guides

We combine official sources (Steam pages, developer posts, in-game HELP when relevant) with play patterns many Early Access households report in the community. Steps are organized around when to act, what to avoid, and what to do after a patch.

When a page looks like a thin list, we expand it with scenarios, beginner paths, and links to deeper guides (careers, skills, money, relationships, and life stages). If you spot outdated text after a patch, please use the contact page — corrections help everyone.

What Makes This Site More Than a Guide List

The site is built around player decisions rather than generic summaries. We add value by turning Early Access systems into tools, checklists, route finders, and patch-aware playbooks that help players avoid save damage, wasted money, mod conflicts, and first-week mistakes.

• Interactive tools: Storyteller Picker, Career / AP Route Finder, Cheat Command Builder, Mod Patch Checklist, Save Safety Checklist, and Week-One Money Planner.
• Editorial method: official patch notes and store pages are treated as source material; guide pages explain what those changes mean for a household.
• Correction process: outdated Early Access mechanics are revised when reported with page URL, build number, and observed behavior.

What We Offer

Major guides on this site (all available in eight languages):

• Beginner's Guide — Paramaker, first job, needs, emotions, and costly mistakes
• Careers, Skills, Money, and Relationships — systems that affect every save
• Build Mode — workflow, tools, and builder habits for Early Access
• Cheat Codes — verified console commands with safe-save notes (EA 0.1.x)
• FAQ — buying, playing, technical issues, mods, and Early Access expectations
• Update Tracker — patch notes and what they mean for your household
• Mod Guide — Steam Workshop habits and separate sandbox saves

Sources & Accuracy

Gameplay tips are checked against what many players summarize from Early Access play, then against official channels. Cross-check important details using:

• The official Paralives site and Steam store page for price, platforms, and support links
• In-game menus (Storyteller, job boards, HELP in the cheat console) after major patches
• Our Updates page when a guide has not yet been revised for the latest build
• Official Steam patch notes and developer posts for hotfix-level mechanic changes

How to Report an Error

Early Access changes fast. If a step no longer works or a number looks wrong, help us fix it:

• Include the page URL and your game build (e.g. 0.1.5)—check Settings → About in-game if unsure.
• Describe what you expected vs. what happened. A screenshot helps, but plain text is enough.
• We verify against official patch notes before updating. No byline credit, but every fix helps the next player.
