{{#invoke:Infobox|infobox}}

The Tower of the Gods is a parkour challenge located in Infinitus at approximately X:80, Z:80. It ranks among the oldest surviving challenges on the server, being one of the constructs migrated from the old server, as well as being the most difficult. Since its creation, only two players have succeeded in completing it.

Access

The Tower of the Gods can be accessed independently of the quest from anywhere using the "/godstower" command. This command will teleport the player directly to the starting platform in Infinitus. At the starting platform, and on several checkpoints within the tower, a player can set their home. If the player has set his or her home in Infinitus somewhere in the tower, then the "/home" command will also teleport the player to the tower while in Infinitus.

Challenge

The tower consists of six levels, each designed to test the player in new ways. The levels range from drills in precise jumps to unique arrangements of jumps to add variety.

Trivia

  • The Tower of the Gods was first completed in the old server in June of 2012, and was advertised to the world with a Reddit post promising, in addition to in-game rewards, a long list of Steam games to the first player to beat it. On July 13, 2012, Azilizan became the first player to clear it. It was then six years until Piogre became the second player to beat it on February 17th, 2018.
  • The original in-game rewards for the tower included multiple high-powered spells. These spells were later removed from the game, and rewards for completion are now determined by Wahrheit on a case-by-case basis, based on discussion with the player in question.
  • The tower originally had an entirely open bottom, leaving players who missed jumps to fall directly into the void.
  • The signs of encouragement placed on several points of the first level are references to the lyrics of the song I'll Make a Man Out of You, from Disney's Mulan. YouTube
