Look at that, an on-time launch for a change!

Apartments are now available in the following cities:

New York
London
Shanghai
Delhi

To purchase an apartment visit the real estate agency in the city you want to buy in. Apartments are quite expensive, and furnishing them is also costly, so you probably should wait if your short on funds.

There are two types of furniture that aren't yet working:

1) Study Furniture / Case File storage: These items will allow you to save case files, as in detective agencies, but this functionality is not yet finished.

2) Bookshelves: Bookshelves will eventually allow your guests to read books that you have collected (and gain the experience from doing so), but these are also currently incomplete.

Enjoy.

Update:

1) Bookshelves are now working. If you have a bookshelf, you and your guests can use it to access your book collection. This means that guests can get experience from books that you own, but they do not.

2) As per several requests, when you invite somebody to your apartment, the invitation message now includes the city that your apartment is located in, so they don't have to guess.

The case files still do not work. It will probably be a few days before those are functional.

Is it true that we can only own one apartment?

Yes, just one apartment for now. We need to put in some thoughts about the effect that having more than one apartment would have on game fairness.

Any thoughts of adding a YMCA to the cities.Or maybe a locker at the docks or train stations. Somewhere where we can purchase an affordable locker to store a coat or a pair of shoes instead of the astronomically priced apartments and furniture? The apartments are a nice idea, but the high prices make them unattractive. Just a thought.

Expensive, yes.

But I feel Ben has subscribed to the Field of Dreams mentality:

"If you build it, they will come."

So rock on, Admin-a-saurus. Keep giving us ways to blow our cash and we will continue to keep the Sleuth economy vibrant :)

I'm with ya Serges.

I am totally grateful for something to spend some moolah on. I know it's a lot, but other than the Race Track, there is nothing to spend money on, once you bought everything...

I was getting a little nervous I'd have nothing else to spend money on besides AV hunts... I have all but one book, don't need any equip... Well, that's counting on not having to pay Shady.

Now I can save up for some sweet-ass furniture!!
