Winning Concept designers get Earned Gold based on the finished item's rarity, plus copies of their item. The Highrise team contacts winners directly and works with you through a chat while the item is made. Rewards arrive in your inbox when the item is released.
How much do Concept winners earn?
Rewards depend on the rarity the Highrise team gives the finished item:
Rare: 50,000 Earned Gold and 6 tradable copies
Epic: 70,000 Earned Gold and 4 tradable copies
Legendary: 100,000 Earned Gold and 2 tradable copies
Mythical: 150,000 Earned Gold and 2 tradable copies
Every winning designer also gets one account-bound copy to keep. Pairs split the rewards evenly. Each Concept's page lists the rewards for that Concept, so check it in case they differ.
Earned Gold spends like regular Gold and can be cashed out. See What is Earned Gold and how do I cash it out?
Who decides the rarity and how the item is released?
The Highrise team. You decide how the item looks, how it layers, and its name. The team decides rarity, price, how it's released (Grab, sale, collection, or gift), whether it's tradable, and whether it gets recolors.
How will I know if I won?
The Highrise team contacts winners directly and opens a chat about your winning entry. Vote counts aren't shown to players.
What happens during production?
Send the team any extra details, references, and item names in your entry's chat.
The art team sends a preview. You have 24 hours to request changes, so be thorough.
The team finishes the item. Big design changes aren't possible after the preview window closes.
The art team may simplify details or adjust the style so the item fits Highrise, and makes the final call on technical and design changes. Send feedback in the chat only; requests sent elsewhere, such as Discord, aren't used.
When do I get my rewards?
When the item is released. Your item copies and Earned Gold arrive in your inbox as gifts. If you spot a layering bug once you have the item, tell the team in your chat.
Still need help?
If your item was released but your rewards haven't arrived, or your pair partner can't reach the chat, contact Support with your username and the Concept's name.
