Christmas Tower 2021

Tower in the background

The Christmas Tower was a series of 8 rooms filled with Christmas Ghosts to defeat. There were also Chick and Flower Pot Ghosts from the Easter Event to be defeated. It was available to play in during the 2021 Christmas Event, with a 30 minute time limit. Timber Scrooge reappeared from the 2019 Christmas Event and was on the 2nd Floor, The Nutcracker reappeared from the 2020 Christmas Event and was on the 4th Floor, Meep reappeared from the 2021 Spring Event and was on the 6th Floor, and Fluffy reappeared from the 2020 Easter Event on the 8th Floor. Each Mega Boss dropped one Christmas Key upon defeat. The Tower was needed to be defeated in order to complete Head Elf's, Pink Elf's, and Ghost Hunter Bo's 2021 questlines and gives 1 Christmas Key upon completion of all 8 floors, totalling 5 Christmas Keys from one run. It can be completed with other players.

Rooms

The rooms are randomized, and connect together to make a maze, from a starting point to an end point. They consist of patches of snow, icicles hanging from the ceiling, and pillars of crystalised ice in various rooms, which support the structure from crumbling. A variety of layers of compressed ice can be found on the floors of many rooms, and flat, dark blue boulders are scattered too. The boulders, icicles and pillars are occassionally caked in a layer of snow. Old-fashioned, lit, wooden torches are along the walls, while entrances/exits have the structural support of rectangular blocks of rock and ice. Additionally, glowing, hatched holes can be found behind large curtains of snowy icicles, usually in 4-path rooms. The walls are made of thick layers of ice, whereas the floors have a texture of shiny, icy rocks.

Outside

The Tower's entrance replaces the entrance for the Christmas Throneroom, each of the areas being transformed workshops for the megabosses. It takes 30 seconds for the dungeon to let the Players in, and can accept everyone in a server. The Tower is available while Players are currently running through a floor.

Waiting Room

Waiting Room

After entering the Tower, or completing a floor, the Players will be teleported into a waiting room so that the next floor can be loaded. It also provides a section of time to recollect. Once the next floor has been loaded, there will be an intermission time of 15 seconds until the doorway to the next floor becomes accessible. If a Player joins the Tower while a floor is in progress, they will be teleported into the subsequent waiting room.

Maze

The Maze is comprised of three sections: a starting point, end point, and middle. When teleported into the maze, the Players will come into a room, similar in design to the Waiting Room. The goal is to reach the end of the maze, which is identical to the starting point, but its darkened frame has a green hue. The end is blocked by a purple barrier which will only give access to the Players if all the ghosts, usually around 30, across the Floor have been vacuumed. The middle is comprised of randomised rooms: 4-paths, corridors, and corners - at each door frame, there is a chance that the door will be blocked, causing a dead end on that specific path.

Arena

Instead of being teleported to the maze, on the 2nd, 4th, 6th, and 8th< floors, the Players are teleported to an arena with the Timber Scrooge, Nutcracker, Meep or Fluffy megabosses. The arena is a large circular room, with one darkened path behind the spawn. The room is held up by pillars of reinforced ice, and compressed rock. The floor has the same texture as that of the waiting room and the maze. After defeating the respective megaboss, a Christmas Key is dropped and a portal appears that teleports the Players to the waiting room. If they complete the 8th floor, they are teleported back to Main Street, and the Tower has been defeated.

Trivia

• It is likely, due to complaints about the underwhelming size of the Haunted Tower, the developers increased the size of the rooms so that objects were less likely to interfere when vacuuming ghosts.
• There was no official name for the Christmas Tower until part 2 of the Christmas Event in V1.98.0, when Pink Elf and Ghost Hunter Bo called it the Christmas Tower.
• Fluffy was added in V1.98.0, whereas the other megabosses were there from the beginning. To counteract adding 12 Floors per tower, as there were two floors of ghosts between bosses making 9 floors already, the Developers reduced the number of maze floors. By adding Fluffy, the Christmas Tower grants 1 more Christmas Key than it did in V1.97
