Welcome to the Tower of Cash! Here, if you are fortunate, you can win hundreds of millions of dollars! All you have to do is navigate your way safely through the tower...

Spoiler: Basic Gameplay
The tower contains 21 floors, and each floor has two values hidden there - one on the left, and one on the right. The game is played by travelling to a floor and selecting a direction, claiming whatever is hidden there. The other value will then be revealed (but not claimed), and both will then be removed from the board.
The game has six rounds - in the first round, we travel to six floors, then five in the second, four in the third, three in the fourth, two in the fifth, and the one remaining floor in the last round. Between rounds, you may elect to bail out, leaving the tower with whatever cash you have accumulated at that time. Once you start a round, however, you have to see it through. Simple enough, right?


Half of the spaces are cash, ranging from $1 to $1,000,000. If you find one of those spaces, they are added to your score.
The other half are various events.
Spoiler: Event Descriptions
-25%, -50%, -75%, -100%
- When found, these spaces will reduce your score by the given percentage. Yes, this means the -100% space will reset you to zero.
+25%, +50%, +75%, +100%
- When found, these spaces will
increase
your score by the given percentage. Much nicer, with the +100% space doubling your score.
Random 4, Random 5, Random 6
- These spaces are cash spaces, but the amount they will give you is random. The number of digits in the amount generated is the number given on the space. (Random 4 = $1000-$9999, Random 5 = $10000-$99999, Random 6 = $100000-$999999)
Peephole
- Your one weapon to combat the randomness of the tower, after finding this space you will be able to peek at any two spaces before choosing them. You can look at both spaces on the same floor, or one space on each of two floors.
Prefix
- If you are lucky enough to find this space, we'll add a 1 to the front of your score.
Suffix
- Even better, this one will place a 0 on the end of your score, effectively multiplying it by ten!
Floor Closure
- Upon finding this space, an unpicked floor will be randomly selected and closed. Both spaces on that floor will be removed, and the game will end after the fifth round rather than the sixth.
T, O, W, E, R
- Individually, these spaces do nothing, However, should you manage to collect four of them, you will receive $1,000,000, and if you are able to find all five, you will receive $1,000,000,000. (And should you collect all five
in order
, we'll bump that jackpot up to one trillion, just for good measure)
BASEMENT
- The one space you really,
really
want to avoid. Finding this space will drop you into the basement, meaning the end of your run. You must then choose a percentage of your score to try and escape with. A percentage will then be randomly generated. If your percentage is equal to or less than the generated one, you leave with the amount you picked. Should the generated amount be lower, however, you will leave with nothing.


It's a lot easier to understand once we get into it. And yes, it is just about Deal-or-No-Deal levels of RNG. That said... how much can
you
win?

Alright, let's get this show on the road!
We can go one at a time, or make all six selections for Round 1 at once. We need you to pick a floor, and whether you're going left or right.

That's the end of Round 1, which means this is your first bailout point. You can either take $32 and leave the Tower of Cash, or you can play on and visit another five floors. Which is it to be?

That's a third letter! Still no payoff yet, but if you can pick up any more, we're in good shape...

That would have been $9,295 added to your score.

[$82,451]


A nice boost to your score at this stage, putting you just under $100k.

You've got two peeks in hand now. To clarify, once you peek at a space on a given floor, you're committed to choosing from that floor. You have to travel there to use the peek, and once you do that elevator isn't budging until you go left or right.

We're not picking quite yet, but using our first peek reveals that going left will get you the [O].

What next? Use the other peek on the right, choose left, or choose right?

Unsurprisingly...

That's now your FOURTH letter picked up, which means...

[$1,000,000]


Big bucks! And the alternative...

No big loss either! Now this is looking interesting... the last letter's still in play, so the billion-dollar bonus is very much an option. Can you cash in on it?

D3f3nd3r, welcome to the Tower of Cash! Don't feel pressured by our last performance, because it's time for you to (hopefully) win a heap of money! You need to visit six floors in Round 1 before your first chance to leave the tower, so you can choose all six at once or go one-by-one like LLD did.

Ah, thanks. Elevator's had enough of a workout now...

Add a 0 to the end of that score, we're in the millions now!

So here's the deal. You currently possess $5,662,092. A percentage will be randomly selected (1%-100%), and you must decide how much of your winnings you try to take with you. If it's less than (or equal to) the chosen percentage, you get away with it. If you try and take more... well, don't say I didn't warn you.
Good luck...?

Climbing further upwards and looking left...

[-75%] <--


A big cut to your score, but it's mitigated slightly by the fact that your score was only four digits to begin with.

--> [+25%]


I think we can all agree that would have been the preferable choice, though.

Easily made the better pick on that floor, though perhaps there's something to be said about your timing for visiting this floor in the first place...

Starting here by going right...

--> [$8,000]


More goodies, bringing us up to $525,172!

[E] <--


And that's eight grand better than nothing.





[16]


Going up one and looking left this time...

[+100%] <--


There it is! Looks like we're getting away with a million after all! $1,050,344 and counting, to be precise~

--> [$64]


Absolutely no complaints with that pick. We're back in this!





[17]


One more floor in this triple play, and we're going right again...

--> [$8]


...meh.

[Random 5] <--


It could have been $36,237, but at least we got the +100% in that block.

That's another three floors locked in, so here comes the thrilling conclusion...

[18]


Going left...

[O] <--


Nothing... oh well. What did it cost us?

--> [$125]


Thankfully, very little.



[19]

[20]


Going right this time...

--> [$125,000]


Hey, more big bucks! Brings us up to $1,175,352 :D

[R] <--


And the alternative was the last nothing space, so definitely a win.



Now, just one floor left...

[21]


We're looking for the +75%, do we have it...?

--> [$32]


No!

[+75%] <--


Oh well, we still got away with quite a bit in the end. You've navigated the twenty open floors of the Tower of Cash, and that, as they say, is that.

racefan12, it's your turn to enter the Tower of Cash! If you're lucky, you could come away from here with hundreds of millions of dollars! You need to visit six floors before your first opportunity to leave, you can go one-by-one or give all six floors at once... best of luck to you!

Well, two peeks in hand, but that's the end of Round 1. You may choose to leave the tower now with $129,000, or you can play on and visit five more floors.

A bit of a long elevator ride, but here we are...

[Floor Closure] <--


...oh. Let's see what happens here, then. Floor 15 is closing...

[$8,000] <-- --> [Prefix]


Ew. With the prefix gone, we actually have no multipliers left in play at all, so it's all about finding as much cash as you can at this point.
And as for the alternative here...

--> [-100%]


Oh, at least we avoided that? I think it's up to you to decide which was the better option here... losing the prefix hurts, but would losing the $129k we have hurt more?

We're not confirming anything yet, but the space on the left is [$64,000].

There's still quite a bit up there, and there's only one space left that can hurt you. Still, you've picked up a lot of cash (our best Round 2 yet), and that one space can do an awful lot of damage... are you leaving the tower with $2,843,828, or playing on to visit another four floors?

Finishing up the round by going right...

--> [$4,000]


A little more cash never hurts!

A grand shy of nine hundred, and that's where we end Round 1. You now have a choice: leave the tower now with $899,000, or visit five more floors. Which is it to be?

One of the shortest elevator rides we've had so far, let's see what's on the right...

--> [Peephole]


Oh, here we go! Two peeks up on the board to assist you in future floors! And what did it cost us...?

[Random 5] <--


A near-max roll on that means the peeks cost you all of $99,758. Let's hope you can get more value than that from them?

Alright! That's more than enough of a hiatus, let's get this game rolling! You've got a pretty simple enough pattern going here, so let's see...

[1]


Going left on all six picks...

[Floor Closure] <--


Interesting start. We're getting rid of floor 11...

[Peephole] <-- --> [-50%]


Some good and bad lost there. How about the side we didn't pick?

--> [Suffix]


Ah. Not so nice. We're yet to get on the board, so let's keep things moving...



[2]


Let's see what's on the left here...

[Random 5] <--


Oh, here we go! That'll net us...

[$20,372]


Not bad, not bad! And the other side?

--> [$16]


Can't argue with that. $20,372 in the bank now, with four picks left to make.



[3]


Moving on up, what does this floor have for us...

[+100%] <--


A little early to hit that, perhaps but it's definitely a good thing, as long as we didn't lose any big cash...

--> [$4]


And thankfully, we didn't :)

We're now halfway through the round with $40,744 in our possession...



[4]


We'll keep going left, what is there to find here?

[-75%] <--


:(
So much for the double we found just a moment ago.
There's not much we could see on the other side that could make this a good thing...

--> [Random 4]


And indeed that's something we didn't want to see, having missed out on $1,917 in addition to losing a chunk of bank D:
That brings us down to $10,186 with two floors left to visit...



[5]


Let's see if we can find something good after that blow...

[T] <--


Hmm. That's worth zippo no nada to us right now, but we haven't
missed
any letters yet either.
What did we sacrifice to collect that?

--> [$1,000]


A grand. Hmm. Means we stay on $10,186 with one floor left to visit...



[6]


Looking for a strong finish to Round 1...

[$250] <--


And that's, well... something, I suppose. Was it at least better than the alternative?

--> [R]


Well... maybe? That's the full set now unavailable to us, so I suppose it's your call whether or not that pick was good.
Regardless, that's the full round now complete...

After visiting six floors, you now have a choice. You can leave the tower, taking home the $10,436 that you have earned, or you can play on and visit another five floors. Which is it to be?

We're playing on~
Sticking to our rather predictable pattern...

[7]


I guess someone's got a fear of elevators or something, you're spending as little time in it as you can get away with :P
Anyways, what's waiting for us here?

[$16,000] <--


Hey, not bad! And the other side?

--> [+50%]


You definitely made the better choice at the time, but that's a multiplier that would have been nice to collect later.
Oh well, $26,436 in hand with four floors left in the round.



[8]


Let's see here...

[$1,000,000] <--


Boom, there we go! Big money!

--> [$32,000]


The other side obviously nothing in comparison.
Three more floors to visit, that brings us up to $1,026,436!



[9]


Now we're flying high, our safety becomes all the more paramount...

[E] <--


That makes letter #2.
As usual, the value is probably determined more by what you had to trade to get it...

--> [$8]


Which in this case was very little!
We stay on $1,026,436 for now with two more floors left to visit...



[10]


Now would be a good time to dig up another multiplier...

[$64,000] <--


Hey, that isn't bad either!

--> [Random 6]


Unfortunately the alternative was even better, as that would have given us $269,486.
That's all the random values gone now, leaving us with $1,090,436 and one floor left to visit.



[11]

[12]


Skipping over the floor that closed earlier, let's see what we can find here...

[$125,000] <--


Hey hey, another big boost to our score!

--> [$500,000]


But another larger prize missed out on...
Still, that's a very reasonable addition for you as we reach the end of Round 2.

That's a lot of the big cash now off the board, and there's still some big bad penalties up there. Is that enough to make you leave the tower now with $1,215,436, or will you be playing on to visit another four floors?

We're playing on! Perhaps wisely, perhaps foolishly? Let's find out.

[13]


As usual, still taking the left side...

[$4,000] <--


Well, it's something. The alternative?

--> [-25%]


Hey, that's another malus gone! Of course, there's still the big two left...
$1,219,436 in hand as we move on to the second floor of four.



[14]


It's really those big multipliers and the prefix we're after at this point...

[$8,000] <--


But I guess that'll do as well!

--> [-100%]


And avoiding the big crash will REALLY do!
$1,227,436 in hand, two floors to go now.



[15]


Can we still avoid the basement?

[$250,000] <--


Yes we can, picking up the largest cash space still on the board!

--> [$2]


And that's definitely something we can afford to lose.
Now up to a nice $1,477,436, with one floor left to survive...



[16]


What can we find here...?

[$64] <--


Better than the basement, at least.

--> [$32]


Twice the alternative! :P
That actually evens up your bank, too.

So, let's take stock of the board. Prefix. +75%. +25%. Two letters can get you another million. Four lots of petty cash. And of course, the basement is still lurking, threatening to cost you every cent of what you have. You'll need to visit three of the five remaining floors in the next round... or you can leave the Tower with $1,477,500. A difficult choice... what will you decide?

Alright, let's hope you manage to avoid the basement...

[17]


Looking left like usual here...

[W] <--


That makes letter #3. If we can find the last one, that's an extra million...

--> [Prefix]


But it came at the cost of a TEN million dollar Prefix. :(
Not what we wanted to see.
Regardless, we're still on $1,477,500 with two floors to go...



[18]


Can we find something good here?

[+75%] <--


Yes we can, how about that! That's worth over a million to us, that's a huge boost.

--> [$2,000]


And thankfully, no painful trade-off this time. We're now up to $2,585,625 and we just have to survive one more floor...




[19]


Anything but the basement, anything but the basement...


[+25%] <--


It's the last multiplier up on the board, how about that! Another huge chunk added to our score...

--> [BASEMENT]


Aha, there we go! We got rid of it!

We're now SAFE, so you're free to play on to the remaining two floors without risk. There's a few bits of small cash, but the real thing of value to be found is the fourth letter, which is worth an additional million to you.

Alright, let's see if we can find that fourth letter...


[20]


What have we got here?

[$125] <--


Not quite it this time, unfortunately.
But did we miss it, or is it hiding on floor 21?

--> [$1]


Okay, it's waiting for us on the last floor! $3,232,156 in hand, and we'll either be adding $500 or $1,000,000 to that total now...



[21]


Can we find the million here?

[$500] <--


Unfortunately not. :(

--> [O]


Well, that's not the end of the world given what you did manage to win during your twenty-floor visit to the tower. Your southpaw strategy paid off tonight, and that, as they say, is that.

Alright, let's get this elevator started up...

[1]

[2]


First floor, are we going to get something good?

[-100%] <--


...at least we got that out of the way when we had nothing to lose.
How about the other side?

--> [BASEMENT]


...
...
Well that's just impolite. Let's be VERY grateful we went here first and just move on, shall we?



[3]


Right then, now that we've gotten THAT out of the way, can we get started for real?

--> [$64,000]


Yes, that'll do it!

[$32,000] <--


The other one was pretty decent money as well, but thankfully not as much.
$64k in the bag now, four floors to go!



[4]

[5]


Right, let's see what we can pick up here...

[+25%] <--


That'll do! Up to a flat $80,000 now, and the other side?

--> [+50%]


...oh. Oh well. At least they aren't the biggest multipliers?
Three floors clear, three to go.


[6]

[7]


Heading right this time under our alternating strategy, what will we find here?

--> [$2,000]


Another two grand brings us up to $82,000!

[T] <--


And the alternative was (probably) worth nothing at all. Good trade?
Two floors left, let's keep this up...


[8]

[9]

[10]

[11]


Can we keep this going, pick up some more big cash?

[$8] <--


...not quite, but eight dollars is eight dollars, I suppose.

--> [$500,000]


Oh. :/ Well, that's one source of major money lost to us now.
Still, with $82,008 in hand, there's just one floor left to visit...


[12]

[13]


Let's finish off the round strongly, we're going right here...

--> [-75%]


That's... not exactly what anyone had in mind.

[$4] <--


Well then. What a mess of a round THAT was!

Anyways, yes, we're playing on!

[14]

[15]

[16]

[17]


Trying the left side here...

[-25%] <--


That's not the best start :(
Down to $15,376 for us, but was the other side any better?

--> [$32]


Not much there, thankfully, but still would have been better than that blow.
Oh well, still a lot more left in the round...



[18]

[19]


Can we get ourselves a decent recovery going right here?

--> [Random 4]


Oh, this could be decent...

[$5,596]


Brings us back to just about where we were at a moment before, with $20,972 now in hand!

[$1] <--


Sure beats a dollar, at least :P
Two floors down, three more to visit...

[12]

[11]

[10]

[8]

[7]

[6]

[5]

[4]


After a long ride, we're going back to the left here...

[$2] <--


Hey, it's something. As long as the other side wasn't big...

--> [$250,000]


...but it was. Well, that's anohter big money space lost, but we're nowhere near done for yet.
$20,794 in the bank and two floors left in the round...



[5]

[6]


We've seen the right side be the better choice three floors in a row now, will this continue the trend?

--> [$125,000]


It will, finally launching us into six figures!
$145,974 in the bank now, and there's very little that could best that...

[Floor Closure] <--


I think we can safely say that wasn't one of them!



[7]

[8]

[9]

[10]


One floor left, and we're now at right being, well, right, all four times this round so far. We're going left this time, so will the trend finally break?

[Prefix] <--


Oh,
hello
! That's worth a million to us!

--> [$125]


Definitely more valuable than that. Too bad we weren't in seven figures already, but we certainly are now!

Right then, that's the end of Round 2. There's still the -50% up there to potentially cause trouble, but there's also plenty still up there to be won. Felissan, will you leave the tower now with $1,145,974, or play on and visit four more floors?

[11]

[12]

[13]

[14]


Going on the right here...

--> [$8,000]


Hey, more cash, not bad~

[Random 6] <--


That would have been better, though, adding $354,451 to the bank.
That said, we're now on $1,153,974, with three floors to go.


[13]

[12]

[11]

[10]

[9]


Continuing our alternating pattern, what can we find here?

[Peephole] <--


Oh! Been a while since we've had this come up! Of course, the first question is how much did it cost?

--> [$16,000]


Sixteen grand... not
too
bad. Let's hope we can pick up at least that much value from the peeks.
