TVTropes Skyscraper

Go To

Decided to start my first forum game. Basically, as I was from Nationstates originally, I decided to bring a NS forum game to here. Though the whole skyscraper game first started in xkcd and was brought to NS by someone else.

Anyway, going to the main point, basically, you have to post one floor per post. You then have to write what the floor is like. You can write any stuff about the floor, whether they are generic or imaginative, or realistic or unrealistic. Whatever you want to write and have in your mind. I'll start with the first floor. The only two rules are that you should not destroy the skyscraper and you should match the floor number with post number.

Floor 1

A lobby for the Tvtropes Skyscraper. It is filled with many tropers visiting the skyscraper, as well as trope-filled in general. It also has many advertisements for Trope Co.

Now has an access to the Basement.

1251: A long, winding hallway. At some points, the floor will get filled with an ominous mist as you wander. When you finally get to the end, you're... back on floor 1?!

Floor 1252: A large cathedral-like space, with stained glass windows and various halls and stairs running all over the place. Throughout the place, one can find various chambers containing glowing gemstones sitting on podiums. If somebody picks up one of the gemstones, it will stop glowing and one of the following events will happen:

  • Nothing will occur.
  • The person will be granted a single wish.
  • The person will violently and gorily combust.
  • The person will teleport to a random floor on the skyscraper.
  • The chamber will rapidly fill with mustard gas.
  • Marbles will rain from the ceiling.
  • The person will transform into an animal.
  • The person will become immune to all diseases.
  • The chamber will start rotating very fast.
  • The chamber will enter "Disco Mode".
  • The person will be given a Cool Sword.
  • The floor will become lava.
  • The person will become fluent in a language they are not familiar with.
  • The gemstone will explode into sparkles and butterflies.
  • The gravity of the person will be reversed.
  • A shadowy being will appear and chase the person until they get back to the elevator.
  • The chamber will become dim, and relaxing lo-fi beats will begin to play.
  • The person will teleport out of the chamber and lose their memories of ever going in there.
  • The chamber will immediately cool to absolute zero.

Floor 1255: A 25'-tall, video disc rental center like Tsutaya. You can rent only 1280 anime series of which all the soundtracks are only dissonant extremely and the main characters are Kawaii talking animals. All the animes of the same floor are non-existent as of 13 May 2021.

Floor 1256: A big classroom, filled with all sorts of different supplies. Different classes and teachers rotate out and rent the room. Sometimes it's a Chemistry Class, sometimes it's an Art Class, sometimes it's a French Class, and any other possible class that one could theoretically take. The entire floor is also built to block cellphone signals, forcing the students to pay attention.

Floor 1258: A room where the ground is just one huge tile puzzle where you have to step on the right tiles - step on a wrong one, and you'll fall down, but this somehow just teleports you back to the start without you getting hurt. Towards the end, the tiles will even start moving and you'll have to jump at the right time.

Floor 1259: A cryptocurrency exchange where the wall is made of almost pure platinum-198 and which the number of elephant-sized robot employees are 100,000 but human employees are just four. Sadly, no matter how hard you try, you can't buy or sell Bitcoin and Ethereum here, unless you are born in the first two year or seventh year of any Julian decade (xxx0, xxx1, xxx6).

Don't forget that this exchange's speakers play only American hip-hop songs released more recent than 4 years ago, at 70 dB on average and up to 80 dB!

Floor 1260: The exact opposite of Floor 1225: a floor in which it is impossible to forget anything you see, hear, taste, touch, or smell while you are within it. The floor itself is a manor’s lavish sitting room containing all kinds of trinkets and treasures laying around in stacks and piles, as well as a record player playing old tunes. As a result, you’ll end up remembering all kinds of tiny details.

Floor 1264: An indoor rock climbing and bouldering gym with hundreds of walls, with the highest being 300 feet tall. However, many structures in the gym are non-Euclidean in nature, with walls appearing to connect in ways that should be impossible, areas that are larger than the spaces they occupy, and paths that should intersect, but don’t. The amount of anomalies increases as you go farther and farther away from the elevator.

Floor 1266: A plain hallway to the door to Floor 1267. Catch is that walking toward the door never seems to bring it any closer.

Floor 1267: An eating area and kitchen, both stocked full of and reserved for hot-food eating challenges. You can find everything from jalapenos to ghost peppers, and even some spices known only to dolphins, along with spicy foods made from those spices.

#1270: May 20th 2021 at 9:16:17 AM

Floor 1270: A cramped, humid, and dingy store, illuminated by dim fluorescent lights and filled with the quiet hum of the air conditioning. The store sells t-shirts, phone cases, backpacks, and other poorly-made products with art stolen from people on Twitter on them. A secret door behind the counter leads to the place where the store’s products are produced: an extremely dangerous factory that uses child labor.

Floor 1271 consists of the following places:

  • An endless non-Euclidean maze where most of the child workers who tried to escape from Floor 1270 are killed. When they die, their remains decompose to molecules in 30 seconds. Only sixteen workers have successfully escaped since the dangerous downstairs factory have ever been built. However, unless the escapees are the workers, due to the maze's complexity and size, escaping here is virtually impossible.
  • A 555 km long iron wall with murals about ordinary person holding a Portal gun which has a small graffiti of a speech balloon saying "555-POR-TALS".

The store has two narrow stairs that lead to the Anti-Child-Labor group's HQ on Floor 1272 and are still never used.

Floor 1275: The Council To Investigate The Mystery Of Floor 1274. Despite all physical evidence confirming that 1274 exists, everyone who ascends from 1273 ends up in 1275 with no memory of what happened on 1274, and vice-versa.
