History VideoGame / TheTwilightForest

* HedgeMaze: This is one of the structures that can generate. The mazes use a hedge block that damages the player if they attempt to break or stand on the block. There is no center of the maze, instead there being several open spaces containing chests and a spawner for either spiders or hostile wolves.

* TheHedgeOfThorns: The Thornlands. To progress, you'll need the lamp of cinders to burn the thorns.

* SchmuckBait: You see that cube in the Ur-Ghast's tower? The one that has redstone blocks to push in? [[FiveSecondForeshadowing It makes diamond and gold blocks!]] [[OhCrap Until you realize that you can't mine the blocks...]] [[DeathByMaterialism and the room starts to disintegrate around you...]]
** Played with in the modpack Sevtech: Ages, where you need the cube itself for progression. You still don't want to activate it, though.

* There are also some chests in the Labyrinth that are actually trapped, and will explode when you try to open them.

* EverythingsBetterWithPenguins: There are Penguins that live on top of the Glaciers. They don't really do anything, but they're adorable.

%%* HomingProjectile: The aptly named Seeker Bow fires these.

%%* AnIcePerson: The aptly named Snow Queen. The player can get in on this too with the Ice Sword, Ice Bow, and Ice Bombs.
%%* IcePalace: The Aurora Palace where the Snow Queen resides.
%%* KingMook: King Spiders and the Ur-Ghast.
%%* TheLegionsOfHell: The Carminites.
%%* LethalLavaLand: Fire Swamps. Dark Towers are these turned into vertical structures.

* OurGhostsAreDifferent: Wraiths just sort of float around and damage you if you come to close. They also wear crowns for some reason.
%%** The Knight Phantoms on the other hand are no slouch.%%And are they examples of the trope, or...?

%%* ReptilesAreAbhorrent: The Naga and the Hydra certainly are.

%%* SceneryPorn: OH YES.

%%* SlippySlideyIceWorld: The Snowy Forests and Glaciers.

%%* BigCreepyCrawlies: The various types of Spiders and Beetles, as well as Towerwood Borers.

%%* BubblegloopSwamp: Swamps. Fire Swamps mix this with LethalLavaLand.

* AnAxeToGrind: Minotaurs, and the Minoshroom, primarily use axes as weapons, and can be dropped for use by the player.

* BigCreepyCrawlies: The various types of Spiders and Beetles, as well as Towerwood Borers.

* BrokenBridge: As opposed to the [[BeefGate Beef Gating]] of biomes, dungeons and boss arenas are surrounded by a magic barrier that prevents block-breaking and makes monsters invincible within.
** For example: while a vanilla fire resistance potion can allow you to infiltrate the Fire Swamp without eating Meef Stroganoff, the Hydra Lair at the center is non-negotiably protected, making it impossible to defeat the Hydra before the Minoshroom.
* BubblegloopSwamp: Swamps. Fire Swamps mix this with LethalLavaLand.

!!The Twilight Forest contains examples of:

* HomingProjectile: The aptly named Seeker Bow fires these.

* AnIcePerson: The aptly named Snow Queen. The player can get in on this too with the Ice Sword, Ice Bow, and Ice Bombs.
* IcePalace: The Aurora Palace where the Snow Queen resides.
* KingMook: King Spiders and the Ur-Ghast.
* TheLegionsOfHell: The Carminites.
* LethalLavaLand: Fire Swamps. Dark Towers are these turned into vertical structures.

** The Knight Phantoms on the other hand are no slouch.

* ReptilesAreAbhorrent: The Naga and the Hydra certainly are.

* SceneryPorn: OH YES.

* SlippySlideyIceWorld: The Snowy Forests and Glaciers.

* TemporaryPlatform: The Timed Platform version appears in the Dark Towers. Reappearing blocks will temporarily become intangible when the player right clicks on one or they receive a redstone signal. While they are mostly used in lieu of doors in the Dark Towers, they are used this way in a few areas, with pressure plates on both ends, meaning an unobservant player will end up falling through the trap. The player can take these blocks with them for their own use too.

* WolfpackBoss: The Knight Phantoms are fought in a group of 6.

* BattleTrophy: Beating a boss or completing the Quest Ram's sidequest will award the player with a head that primarily serves as this. However, you will need one to open a Goblin Stronghold.

* BrokenBridge: As opposed to the [[BeefGate Beef Gating]] of biomes, dungeons and boss arenas are surrounced by a magic barrier that prevents block-breaking and makes monsters invincible within.

* DungeonBypass: The Labyrinth dungeon is made out of Mazestone, which can be mined through, but uses much more durability from picks. However, it has a suprisingly low blast resistance, meaning it can be blown up by TNT, something acknowledged by some chests in the labyrinth having TNT inside. There also exists the secret Mazebreaker pickaxe, which lets you break Mazestone.

The player can take these blocks with them for their own use too.

* StarScraper: Dark Towers are *monstrously* huge; they start from ground level (which is at Y=~32 in the Twilight Forest dimension), and the boss arena at the top will be within twenty blocks of the build limit (Y=~240) [[note]]Both the Aurora Palace and Final Castle also go up to similar heights, but they start from elevated plateaus instead of ground level and so are only about half as tall in total[[/note]]. Often, the distance fog will obscure the far end of the Tower when standing at either extremity. What's more, the wrecked state of the arena implies that the Tower used to be ''[[UpToEleven even taller]]'' before the Ur-Ghast showed up. Not bad for something made entirely out of half-burned wood!

* ALoadOfBull: The Minotaurs who live in the Labyrinths.

[[https://minecraft.curseforge.com/projects/the-twilight-forest?gameCategorySlug=mc-mods&projectID=227639 The Twilight Forest]] is one of the largest {{Game Mod}}s for ''VideoGame/{{Minecraft}}'', and one of the [[LongRunners oldest mods]] for the game still being developed. It adds a new Realm along with the Overworld and the Nether: the Twilight Forest. The Twilight Forest is a vast forest where it's always dusk, but never fully day or night. A titanic canopy blocks out the sky, strange beasts roam the land, dungeons are scattered across the land. There's treasure to find, monsters to slay, and other such good stuff.

* WinnerGainsLosersPowers: The Twilight Lich boss drops one of their magical rods on death, each of which (except the [[LifeDrain Life Draining Scepter]]) references an attack the Lich uses.

* {{BFS}}: The aptly named Giant's Sword. It deals a lot of damage, but it is slow to use since it is massive.

* DungeonBypass: The Labyrinth dungeon is made out of Mazestone, which is unbreakable by most tools. However, it has a suprisingly low blast resistance, meaning it can be blown up by TNT, something acknowledged by some chests in the labyrinth having TNT inside. There also exists the secret Mazebreaker pickaxe, which lets you break Mazestone.

* IcePalace: The Aurora Palace where the Snow Queen resides

* TheHedgeOfThorns: The Thornlands.

* TheMaze: Hedge Mazes and Labyrinths.

* TennisBoss: During the first part of the fight with the Twilight Lich, it is protected from damage by a rotating ring of shields that are broken by deflecting it's projectiles back to towards it (in similar way to the Ghast's fireballs).

* BrightCastle: The Final Castle, in spite of its hostile inhabitants (and [[ObviousBeta unfinished state]]), is a gorgeous structure of clean white stone and colorful runes.

* SchmuckBait: You see that cube in the Ur-Ghast's tower? The one that has redstone blocks to push in? [[SchmuckBait It makes diamond and gold blocks!]] [[FiveSecondForeshadowing Until you realize]] [[OhCrap that you can't mine the blocks...]] [[FromBadToWorse and the room starts to disintegrate around you...]]
