RULES · ITEMS · STRATEGY

What is the Tower of Trials?

The Tower of Trials is a daily single-player game mode. Your goal: conquer all 100 floors. Each floor presents a choice of doors — quiz questions, mini-games, shops, or dangerous bosses await.

Important: Only one run per day. If you die, you restart the next day. Daily runs are identical for all players — same doors, same questions. Only your skills and items set you apart.

Lives & Damage

You start with 3 lives. Every wrong answer costs exactly 1 life. Reaching 0 ends the run immediately. Maximum is 10 lives, upgradeable via the skill tree.

Correct Answer
+Coins · +Score — no life gain except through items
Wrong Answer
−1 Life · 0 Coins · Score unchanged

Choosing Doors

On regular floors you choose one of 3 doors. Each door shows its type — choose strategically. At most 1 Shop and 1 Event door per floor.

?Quiz

Multiple-choice from 6 daily categories. 30 seconds to answer.

Event

Wordle, Hangman or Packet Path. 90 seconds — reward: a random item.

Shop

Buy items with coins. Default: 2 slots. Expandable to 3 or 4 via skills.

Boss

Only on floors 10, 20 … 100. No choice. Boss has its own HP. 15s per question.

Boss Floors

Every 10 floors a boss awaits. Boss floors have only one door — no escape. Boss HP scales with floor. Each correct answer deals damage; the boss retaliates by removing your lives.

Time limit per question: 15 seconds (20s with the skill). A defeated boss rewards coins and score.

Tip Save consumable items for boss floors — a mistake right before a boss can be fatal.

Events: Wordle, Hangman & Packet Path

Event doors lead to mini-game challenges with a 90 second timer:

W
Wordle
Guess a 5-letter word in 6 attempts. With scope_lens.exe: a word hint is revealed.
H
Hangman
Reveal a hidden word letter by letter. With scope_lens.exe: a category hint is shown.
P
Packet Path
Connect sender to receiver on a 6×6 grid by rotating cable tiles to complete the path.

Events reward a random item on success. No life loss on failure.

Coins & Shop

You earn coins through correct quiz and boss answers. Prices scale with floor:

Commonfrom ~30 coins
Rarefrom ~70 coins
Epicfrom ~150 coins
Legendaryfrom ~300 coins

Inventory limits: max 6 consumables and 4 passives.

Shards & Skill Tree

After each run you earn Shards — a permanent currency for upgrades in the Skill Tree.

ITEMS.db

Common Consumable

firewall.exe

Prevents life point loss on your next wrong answer. Triggers automatically — no action required. Single use, consumed on activation.

Tip Ideal as a safety net in tough floors or before boss fights.
Common Consumable

data_filter.exe

Hides two wrong answers on the next quiz question. Must be manually activated from the inventory bar before answering. Single use.

Tip Best used when you are torn between two options and want to narrow it down.
Rare Passive

scope_lens.exe

Reveals hints in Wordle and Hangman events. Without this item all hints remain hidden. Always active — no activation needed.

Tip Essential if you pick Event doors frequently — hints can be the deciding factor.
Epic Passive

bad_bit.exe

Permanently removes one wrong answer from every quiz question — narrows choices from 4 to 3. Trade-off: you earn only 70% of the normal coins on correct answers. Always active, no activation needed. Shop price varies between 1000–2000 coins.

Tip Strong pick for knowledge-heavy runs if coin efficiency matters less to you. Price is randomized — wait for a cheap shop.
Epic Passive

live_leech.exe

Heals half a heart for every 3rd correct answer in a row. The streak persists across floors and door types. One wrong answer resets it. Requires the skill tree unlock "Unlock Vampire Tooth".

Tip Shines in long runs — combined with consistent correct answers it becomes a steady healing engine.
