The Plaza

The Plaza is an area where you Species will live. Usually, it's located in the Middle Overworld.

## Donations

You can donate Materials to the Builders to eventually upgrade the Plaza! By upgrading the Plaza, it gets more stable and has more open Building slots. And when it reaches certain levels, the Music gets more and more upbeat and instruments are added. There are 6 Levels to your Plaza. You start out on Level 0 as you need to donate little materials to even make the Plaza.

## The Market

The Market is an Event unlocked after reaching Plaza Level 2. Every couple days the Aliens will pull up Shops and sell items and foods and weapons to you. The more upgraded your Plaza is, the more things they can sell. The Market will either open up randomly, or open up on Fests with themed items.

There are tons of different Shops that can open up. Most of them will sell decorations but you may find the occasional Weaponry or Food Shop.

## Festivals

Festivals are Events that can happen in your Plaza. Special Market Shops will open up and you can get sales on Items. Festivals happen when:

* There is a Fest going on. (Festfest, Spookfest, etc.)
* After defeating a Boss

Festivals only happen during night and they play special Music when there's one on. After defeating the Enemy Alien Leader for the first and second time, a huge Festival will be thrown. But, one of them may be rudely interrupted...

## Bosses

There is only 1 Boss that you fight in the Plaza. The **Enemy UFO**.

It is spawned after you defeat the Enemy Alien Leader Supreme and it attacks your Plaza during the special Festival. The UFO is the final boss fight before you finish the game, so it is one of the hardest bosses. If you have upgraded your Plaza all the way, the fight becomes somewhat easier with the Arena you can use and your fellow Aliens will help fight it. If you want to learn more about the boss, visit the Boss Fights page. (Disclaimer: The UFO isn't there yet.)

## Buildings

The Building Slots aren't just for show. Do certain tasks and Aliens will buy the Slots and make shops or services! They can vary from Pizzerias, a Movie Studio and a Blacksmith. Here are some better examples:

### Pizzeria

Unlocked by defeating Bushting - Sells customizable Pizzas! You can choose your own ingredients and unlock more by defeating Bosses.

### Blacksmith

Unlocked by crafting a Ruby Sword - Sells weapons such as Swords and Battleaxes and can take in your old Weapons to use them as Materials for new Weapons!

### Garden

Unlocked by defeating Thorner and Thornette - You can donate Plants to the Gardener and they'll decorate the Garden with it! You can buy seeds of the donated Plants afterwards as well.

### Hotel

Unlocked by finding another Civilization and making friends with it's inhabitants - Outside explorers will visit the Plaza and live in the Hotel. Fulfill their needs and they can give you Items from their hometown!

### Discovery Centre

Unlocked by discovering 15 different Monsters (Bosses not included) - A place where you can view the Enemy Encyclopedia. This Building becomes useless after you buy the Portable Enemy Encyclopedia.

### The Movie Studio

Unlocked after reaching Plaza Level 4 - You can create your own custom Dialogue Cutscenes with discovered Monsters, Bosses and NPCs.

### Laboratory

Unlocked by reaching Plaza Level 2 - Takes Ingredients to create Potions, or you can just buy the Potions by themselves.

### Music Store

Unlocked by reaching Plaza Level 3 - Sells CDs of every in-game Song. You can buy Playlists for categories of songs, like a Boss Playlist consisting of Boss Themes.

And more.
