Heartopia Home Evaluation: Complete Guide (2026)
Everything you need to submit your home evaluation in Heartopia and maximize your score — the scoring formula, furniture priority, weekly reset strategy, and both free-to-play and paid routes. Updated February 2026.
“The scoring formula rewards diversity, not quantity. One new unique furniture piece is worth roughly 100× a duplicate — filling your home with varied types is always better than repeating the same piece.”
What Is Home Evaluation
Home Evaluation is a weekly automated scoring system in Heartopia. After decorating your home, you submit it to the D.G. Member's Guild for assessment. The system scores your home based on furniture diversity, collectibles, plants, and building structure — then awards Gold, Wishing Stars, and other resources based on your score tier.
Why It Matters — Rewards
- Gold coins based on score tier — a consistent passive income source
- Wishing Stars for the gacha system
- D.G. Guild contribution progress
- Bragging rights on the leaderboard
You can submit multiple times before the weekly cutoff (Friday night / Saturday). Only your highest score in that week counts.
How to Submit
Submitting takes under 30 seconds. Here's the exact path:
- 1
Tap the Watch icon in the top-right corner of your screen.
- 2
In the side panel, locate and enter D.G. Member's Guild.
- 3
Tap the Evaluation button in the top-right of the Guild screen.
- 4
Tap Submit Evaluation — done! The system grades your home instantly.
The system scores your current home state at the moment of submission. Make sure all new furniture and collectibles are placed before you submit.
How Scoring Works
The evaluation system does NOT judge interior design style or aesthetics. It runs a pure content-diversity algorithm:
The Core Rule
- ✅First placement of any unique furniture / item type: ~100 points
- ❌Every additional duplicate of the same item: ~1 point (almost worthless)
- 💡Result: Variety is everything. 20 different items beats 100 copies of the same item.
What the System Scans
Furniture types
Each distinct furniture category (bed, sofa, desk, kitchen set, etc.) counted independently
Plants & flowers
Both level and variety matter — higher-level flowers score more
5-star collectibles
High-star items from your Collection book
Sculptures & decorations
Sandbags, art pieces, seasonal décor
Food items
Placed cooked dishes count as unique collectible types
Building structure
Floors and architecture add points — but require real layout, not just stacked floors with no design
Common Misconceptions
- ❌ Style does not matter — the system is blind to whether your home looks "good".
- ❌ More walls ≠ more points — structure is counted, but it needs actual living spaces.
- ❌ One full furniture set repeated room after room = very low score.
Ways to Boost Your Score
🛋️1. Maximize Furniture Type Diversity
Every distinct furniture category adds ~100 points. Use furniture sets that span multiple categories (kitchen set, bedroom set, outdoor set). Never fill an extra room by duplicating furniture from another room — place new types instead.
🌸2. Upgrade Your Flowers to Level 9–10
Swapping from tulips/hibiscus to level 9–10 roses and lilies gave players ~1,000 extra points in community tests. High-level flowers are one of the best free-to-play score boosts.
⭐3. Place 5-Star Collectibles
Complete hobby activities (fishing, bug catching, painting, etc.) to fill your Collection book with 5-star entries, then physically place the items in your home. Each new collectible type placed adds to your score.
💎4. Premium Furniture (Paid Route)
Premium/paid furniture items score significantly more per item than free furniture. If you spend on the game, prioritizing diverse premium furniture types will yield the biggest score jumps — especially mid-to-late game.
🍱5. Place Cooked Food Items
Cooked dishes placed as decoration count as collectible types. Each dish type is unique — a full spread of different recipes adds meaningful points without spending Gold.
🏗️6. Build Real Floor Structures
Multi-floor builds add points. However, an empty stacked structure with no furniture drops your score. Build floors with actual furniture and collectibles inside each space.
Weekly Strategy
The score cap in Heartopia increases gradually each week with game updates. This means:
- •You cannot hit max score by grinding furniture in one week — the ceiling rises incrementally.
- •Each week, follow new game updates and place newly obtained furniture/collectibles before submitting.
- •Expected weekly gains: 600–1,000 points per week for active players who place all new items.
Optimal Submission Schedule
Acquire new furniture, collectibles, and flowers. Complete hobbies.
Place ALL new items in your home. Run a final check for uncollected items.
⭐ Submit evaluation for your best score of the week.
Submit again if you made further additions. Score resets after weekly cutoff.
Free vs. Paid Path
🟢 Free-to-Play Path
- Complete all 6 available hobbies to maximize your collectible 5-star item count
- Grow every flower variety and upgrade them to level 9–10
- Cook every available recipe and place one of each as decoration
- Expand home plots (up to 8) to fit more furniture diversity
- Use furniture sets earned through Resident Requests and Guild rewards
- Expect plateau around 60–70% of max score without paid items
💎 Paid Player Path
- Focus on buying diverse furniture types rather than full matching room sets
- Each new premium furniture category = +100–200 pts
- Late-game score gap between paid and free-to-play players becomes significant
- Premium seasonal event furniture often introduces new categories not available free
The evaluation system is designed to reward both routes — free players grow steadily through hobby completion and gardening, while paid players get bigger weekly jumps.

Pro Tips
- 1Submit every Friday — even a +200 point improvement matters for weekly rewards.
- 2Never place duplicate furniture in different rooms. Always choose a new furniture type.
- 3After unlocking a new hobby, immediately convert its 5-star collectibles into placed items.
- 4Flowers matter more than most players realize. Level-up your gardens before buying new furniture.
- 5Check the evaluation feedback after each submission — the system lists the categories where you're "lacking", which is your exact to-do list.
- 6If the feedback says "not enough collectibles", that's the hardest problem — focus on unlocking more hobbies to solve it long-term.
- 7Building structure should look like an actual house, not a scoring farm — the system detects empty stacked rooms and penalizes them.
