This title is a community simulation MMO that consists of players continually building their lives and homes, meeting a varied cast of compelling characters, and experiencing an ongoing narrative alongside other players.

Above all else, Singularity 6 desires Palia to be as welcoming as possible and seeks collaboration amongst gamers to be at the forefront of this collective experience.
