The Residences is a luxury apartment complex on The Pond offering high-end player housing. Flats, apartments, and penthouses are all available for purchase, each with their own key tier, price, and amenities. The shared tower holds 10 Flats, 5 Apartments, and 3 Penthouses. Housing NPCs Beauregard and Marguerite assist with tours and purchases — unsold units can be toured via the elevator and claimed on the spot, while sold units change hands through the Marketplace.
This is where players establish permanent residences and can install Money Printers for passive Gold income.
Property Tiers
| Property | Key required | Tier | Price | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Flat | Bronze Key | Entry-level | 400 Gold | Standard The Pond apartment. Good starter residence. 10 units. |
| Apartment | Silver Key | Mid-tier | 1,000 Gold | Mid-range The Pond residence with upgraded amenities. 5 units. |
| Penthouse | Gold Key | Luxury | 5,500–7,500 Gold | Top-floor penthouse (Penthouse 1: 5,500 · Penthouse 2: 6,500 · Penthouse 3: 7,500). The premium Pond residence. |
All properties are located on The Pond and offer apartment-style living with waterside views.
Key Tiers
Each property requires a specific key tier to own and operate:
- Bronze Key — Entry-level, grants access to Flats. ×1 weight for Money Printer earnings.
- Silver Key — Mid-tier, grants access to Apartments. ×2 weight for Money Printer earnings.
- Gold Key — Luxury tier, grants access to Penthouses. ×4 weight for Money Printer earnings.
Higher-tier properties earn significantly more from Money Printers due to their revenue weight multiplier.
Money Printer
Every property owner can buy and activate a Money Printer inside their residence — a machine that earns passive Gold paid out of the Casino's net profit (what players lose to the casino). In periods where the casino is at a net loss, printers pay nothing.
- Bought for 1,000 Gold from a pop-up option while standing inside your property.
- One-time activation, no fuel or upkeep. It accumulates Gold passively (even while offline) and is claimed at will.
- One printer per property.
- Your cut of the casino's profit scales with your key tier — Gold Key properties earn the highest cut (×4), then Silver Key (×2), then Bronze Key (×1).
See Money Printer for full mechanics and the tier payout table.
