Parcel

Welcome to the planetA tiny town to explore, and a game that lives on Solana.

Parcel World is a little planet you can walk all the way round. You're its courier: run and jump about, fly to the moon and Mars, and chat with the people who live there and with other players. Behind the town is an economy: couriers work out of player-run post offices and earn $PARCEL, the town's token, which trades in a Raydium pool.

Walking about is free and needs nothing but a browser. A wallet on Solana lets you open a post office, put your couriers to work and earn. Exploring and chatting are just for fun: they never earn $PARCEL, which only comes from couriers on duty at post offices.

PlayingExplore, chat, take photos, fly to the moon and Mars.

What earns $PARCEL

Nothing you do on the planet earns $PARCEL by itself: it comes only from couriers on duty at a post office (see Post offices). When the treasury runs a drop, the treasure hunt's coins pay that token. (Once the planet worlds are in the game, a planet's owner can also charge visitors a ticket: that's other players' $PARCEL changing hands, not new $PARCEL.)

Places

Chat

Talk to everyone on the planet in any language: press Enter (or tap 💬 Tap to chat on a phone), type, and send. Your message shows in the chat box and as a speech bubble over your courier. Text only: links and wallet addresses aren't allowed, so nobody can post scams, and messages are up to 140 characters, one every two seconds. Tap someone's name in the chat box to mute them; the settings (⚙︎) can hide chat or unmute everyone.

Photos

Tap 📷 (or press C) for photo mode. The buttons step aside and the camera is yours: drag to look all the way round, from overhead down to the ground looking up at the sky; scroll or pinch to zoom from the whole planet's curve right in to your courier's eyes. Set the clock to any hour (sunsets are lovely), hide your courier if you like, then press the shutter (or Space) to save the picture, or share it straight from your phone. Press C, Esc or Done to go back to playing.

Your name

Players show as their wallet address (or "Guest"). To pick a name instead, open the Post Office panel, tap ✏️ Pick a name, type 3 to 15 letters, numbers or _, and save: your wallet signs to confirm (free, no transaction). Your name then shows on your name tag, in chat, on your post office and on the leaderboard. Names are first come, first served, and you can change yours once a day (or go back to your wallet address).

Ads on the Orb

The Orb shows paid ads from other projects, each for a set time (several take turns every 20 seconds), and the ad on it also plays on Times Square's big screens. Tapping either opens the ad's card with its website and chart. Every ad is checked by the team before it goes up, but an ad is not an endorsement: always do your own research before you buy anything or connect your wallet. Want your project on the Orb?

The moon, Mars and Pet World

The rocket in the neon district is the Space Express. Stand by it and press E (or tap Hi), then pick where to fly:

• The moon (100 $PARCEL): a small grey world of craters and rocks, with Parcel World hanging in a black, starry sky. Gravity is low, so jumps go about three times as high. The moon frogs live up there: Officer Zorp greets new arrivals at the pad, Captain Gloop, Blib and Kiki hang out at Moon Base, Professor Tadwick maps the stars at his telescope, and Old Croak keeps to his hut on the far side. Look up, too: their flying saucer circles the moon.
• Mars (200 $PARCEL): a red world as big as Parcel World, with two little moons in a butterscotch sky. You land at the spaceport, by two tall rockets and a launch tower. Mars City is next door: a big glass plaza dome you can walk into, with a garden and a fountain, ringed by greenhouses, homes, pools, farms and a ring road. Red mountains rise beyond it, and further round there's a long winding canyon, a big sleeping volcano and an ice cap at the bottom. Twenty locals live there: seven Martians (Mayor Zibble, Dr. Rusta, Pip, Geo, Old Ozzy, Tula and Nix) and thirteen astronaut colonists, from Commander Ada in the plaza to Climber Juno up in the mountains. Pip's rover is parked in the garage by the spaceport: press E by it to hop in and drive, and E again to hop out. Every seven minutes or so a dust storm blows through for a minute and a half.
• Pet World (300 $PARCEL): the pets' little green pixel world, home of the pets, drawn in its own Game Boy greens and chunky pixels. There's a log cabin, a windmill, houses, a pond, a sprout field, a forest round the far side, a floating island in the sky, and the old stone tower with its red roof, where ADAM, the pets' keeper, waits at the door. The pets wander about near their homes: Mochi and Pixel the cats, Biscuit and Nugget the dogs, Ember and Smokey the dragons, Bao and Tofu the pandas, Waddles the penguin, Hopper the frog, Wooly the sheep and Momo the monkey. Walk up to one and press E (or tap Hi) to sit down and pat it: hearts float up, it says hello, and a box opens to say something to it (everyone there sees what you say, and the pet answers). Pets remember you: every day (UTC) you come back and pat a pet, you're friends for one more day, from New friend (1 day) to Friend (3), Good friend (7), Best friend (14) and Family (30). Patting again the same day is just for fun. Walk off to get up.

Parcels on the same world see and chat with each other. Walk up to anyone, frog, Martian, astronaut or ADAM, and press E to chat. The arrow at the top points the way back to the rocket.

A ticket is sent from your wallet to the Parcel World treasury and lasts an hour: fly home any time from the rocket by the landing pad, and the rocket brings you home when it runs out. You need to be logged in and signed in to the hunt (a free signature) so the game's server can check your ticket. Your ticket survives a reload: fly back from the neon district.

Days pass every 12 minutes, showers roll over now and then, and the town's people wave, chat and go about their day.

Your courierThe character you play, and the ones who work for you.

Every courier has a look and a ride. The ride sets its delivery power, how much of each block's reward it earns at a post office, and how many of the office's routes it uses. Your post office comes with a trainee courier who starts work straight away; hire more in the Post office panel, with $PARCEL, and put them on duty. A courier shows its power, a badge for its level, and an ON DUTY postmark while it works. Log in with your wallet and you play as one of your own.

Faster rides earn more but take more routes, so an office fills up quicker. A courier on duty stays put until you take it off duty.

Parcel SkinsOutfits and rides to wear in the game.

Skins change how you look, to you and to every player around you. They never change what you earn: $PARCEL only comes from couriers on duty at post offices. Buy them in the Post office panel with $PARCEL, then press Wear on one you own.

• Rides are faster to get around on: the Neon Scooter, Hoverboard, Neon Bike and Moonwedge each have their own speed.
• Every skin is limited: once a design is sold out, it's gone. The rarer the design, the fewer there are.
• Other players see your skin only if your wallet really owns it: the game's server checks it.

CompanionsLittle friends that follow your courier around.

A companion walks (or hovers) along behind your courier wherever you go, on the planet, the moon and Mars. They're bought only with $PARCEL, in the Post office panel, and every bit of it goes to the Parcel World treasury. Own more than one? They can all follow you at once, in pairs behind your courier: pick which ones in the panel. Every player around you sees them too.

• Buy them one at a time, up to each kind's wallet limit in the table, and never for more than the price you saw.
• Every kind is limited, so the rarer ones won't be around for long, and every kind has a wallet limit, so no one wallet can buy up a kind.
• Companions are just for fun: they never change what you earn. The mecha, the colossus and the anime companions are Parcel World's own designs.

CarsDrive round the planet in your own.

Parcel Cars are cars your courier can drive, from the post office's own red van to a rocket car. In one, only the car shows (your courier sits inside), at a moped's speed, on every world but the Mars rover (your car waits while you drive that). They're bought only with $PARCEL, in the Post office panel, and every bit of it goes to the Parcel World treasury. Own more than one? Pick which to drive in the panel, or get out and walk (you'll want to, to fish or to pat a pet). Every player around you sees your car too.

• Buy them one at a time, up to each car's wallet limit in the table, and never for more than the price you saw.
• Every car is limited. Every car is Parcel World's own design: no real makes or models.
• Cars are just for fun: a car goes as fast as a moped, and never changes what you earn.

Planets333 worlds of your own.

Each Parcel Planet will be a world of its own inside Parcel World: its owner will explore it and build on it, and can open it to other players for a ticket in $PARCEL. A daily treasure on your planet is planned too. Buy one in the Post office panel, with $PARCEL only: every bit of it goes to the Parcel World treasury.

The planet worlds aren't in the game yet: they come next. Buy a planet now and its world is waiting for you when they land. Until then a planet is yours to hold and see in the panel.

• Tickets (once the worlds are in the game). You decide who visits your planet: keep it closed, let everyone in free, or set a ticket of up to 1,000 $PARCEL. 80% of every ticket goes straight to you and 20% to the treasury.
• Every planet has the same rights. Each one's look (its type, rings, moons and sky) comes from its number; the rarest kinds are just for show. The looks are public from the start, and planets sell in number order: each buy gets the next numbers in line.
• One buy takes up to 3, never for more than the price you saw.

FishingFree for post office owners: keep what you catch.

Stand on the pier, on a bridge over the bay, or at the water's edge, face the water and press E (tap Hi on a phone). When the float dips, press E again to hook the fish, then hold E to reel and let go to give it line: keep the marker in the green until it's in. Walk off and you reel in. The game's server picks when a fish bites, checks you really stood at the water, didn't land it before the bite and stayed put, and picks the species only once it's landed, so letting fish go never helps.

• Free, with a daily limit. Up to 10 fish a wallet a day (UTC). You need an open post office to fish, and the treasure hunt's sign-in: one signature, free.
• Your catch is yours to keep: it goes into your collection in the Post office panel. Each species is its own entry: 24 to collect.
• When a rare species is out for the day (or for good), you catch another of the same rarity; only once every species of that rarity is out does the catch drop to a commoner one. Fish never change what you earn.

Post officesPut couriers to work and collect $PARCEL.

Open a post office for 0.1 SOL. It comes with a trainee courier (60 power) who starts work straight away, so you earn from the first minute. Put more couriers on duty to add their power. Each office has a number of desks (couriers on duty at once) and routes; faster rides use more routes.

Upgrades go one tier at a time, with a 24-hour wait between them. Collect your $PARCEL whenever you like from the post office panel.

Invite friends: when someone opens an office with your invite, you get 2.5% of what their office collects (taken from their share).

LevelsTrain a courier for more power.

Parcels go from level 1 to 10. Each level adds +12% to its base power, so a level 10 courier has 2.08× the power it started with. Training costs 25 × level² $PARCEL, and levels stay with the courier for good.

From level 1 to 10 costs 7,125 $PARCEL in all.

$PARCELThe town's token: 21 million, ever.

Your share of each block's reward is your offices' delivery power over everyone's.

TradingBuy and sell $PARCEL right in the game.

• $PARCEL trades against USDC in one Raydium pool. Trade with USDC, or with SOL (routed through the USDC/SOL pool), from the post office panel.
• Every swap pays a 4% fee on its USDC side. Plain transfers, and everything the game does, are never taxed.
• The launch liquidity is $PARCEL only and locked forever, so sells fill once buys have brought USDC into the pool.
• Each trade shows a quote with fees and price impact included, and is protected by a slippage limit.

Nothing here is financial advice. Tokens can lose value; only trade what you're happy to lose.

LaunchpadLaunch your own token, right in Times Square.

• The Launchpad is the ground floor of Times Square's corner tower: walk up and press E (or Hi), tap its sign, press L, or use the button in the post office panel.
• Anyone with a post office can launch a token. Give it a name, a symbol, a picture, a description and links. Launching burns 100 $PARCEL.
• Every token has 1,000,000,000 supply and no owner, no minting and no tax. 95% goes into its own pool against USDC, locked for good, so it can always be traded. 5% goes to the Parcel World treasury for drops to post offices.
• Every launch starts at the same market cap (about $5,000). Buy and sell any token with SOL or USDC from its page; every trade pays a 4% fee on its USDC side to Parcel World.
• The three biggest tokens (by market cap) show on a Top 3 coins screen in Times Square, and the five biggest on the ticker.

Tokens are made by players, not by Parcel World. Most go to zero: do your own research. Tokens that copy the game's own names or break the rules aren't shown in the game, but still trade on-chain.

Treasure huntReal tokens scattered round the planet as coins.

• The treasury drops real tokens, from the Launchpad and from partner projects, round the planet as coins with the token's picture on them. They're out at new spots every day (00:00 UTC), in the open, up high, or where only a jump reaches.
• Walk into a coin to collect it. Every player can collect every coin, and your finds show in the post office panel's Treasure hunt section.
• Only players with a post office open can redeem. Sign in to the hunt once (a free signature, no transaction), then claim everything you've found, every drop at once. Claim by the end of the next day (UTC).
• Each drop pays a few coins per wallet a day, and a set number a day across everyone, while its tokens last. The game's server checks every find against where you've actually been.
• While a drop is on, a running line across the top of the screen says how many coins are out today (and how many you've found), how many are left to claim today, what each pays and when the next ones come out. The Post Office panel's Treasure hunt section shows the same, with a bar of today's coins left to claim.
• Times Square's screens and ticker say which coins are out.

The tokens come from the Parcel World treasury (5% of every Launchpad launch, and partner projects' tokens). Drops are funded only by the treasury, which can pause claims if anything looks wrong.

SafetyYour wallet stays yours.

• Nothing in the game can spend your $PARCEL or your SOL on its own: every purchase, upgrade and trade is a transaction you sign in your wallet, for the amount it shows.
• Signing in to the hunt, picking a name and proving what you own are free signatures, never transactions.
• Chat is text only: links and wallet addresses can't be posted, so nobody can send you to a scam from inside the game. Never share your seed phrase, and only connect your wallet on the game's own site.
• The Launchpad's owner can change the launch fee (at most 100,000 $PARCEL) and the starting price of new launches; a launch on its way never pays more or starts elsewhere than it showed. The owner can't touch launched tokens, their pools or anyone's balances, and their liquidity can never be removed.
