June Spark Week is Here!
June Spark Week has arrived in Upland! Throughout Spark Week, you’ll have the chance to acquire extra Spark which is the valuable resource that brings property structures and Map Assets to life in Upland. June Spark Week officially kicks off on Monday, June 26th, at 9 AM PT and concludes on Monday, July 3rd, at 9 AM PT. This month’s Spark Week features a Spark Sale, Status Up Spark Rewards, and Sparked Up Treasure Hunt Tier.
Spark Sale
Don’t forget to check out the limited-time Spark Sale in the Upland Store during Spark Week. Get ready to hop in, register, and stock up! A quick tip: the two smallest quantities, 0.05 and 0.1 Spark will also be available on mobile for players looking to grab a smaller amount of Spark. Make sure you act quickly, as these quantities will only be available until they sell out. It's the perfect opportunity to replenish your Spark if you're running low.

New to Spark?
If you’re a new player or are just trying to figure out what Spark is and what it does, no problem! In Upland, we are simulating many aspects of the real world. There is a lot of building in Upland, including Structures on properties, as well as things like cars and Map Assets in factors.
Think of Spark as fuel that keeps Upland factories running and feeds the little llama construction workers building on properties. (Okay, we don’t actually have llama construction workers, but use your imagination!)
Every object that needs to be built or constructed takes a minimum amount of Spark. The more Spark put into building something, the faster that object is built.
For example, if you have a new property, you’ll need Spark to build a structure on the property. You’d do this if you want to have an Upland Home Address or Metaventure Shop on your property.
Unlike UPX, Spark isn’t available at any time. There are certain events – such as Spark Week – when players can earn or buy Spark. If you plan on building in Upland, be sure to participate in this month’s Spark Week!
