The Tower of Time is an Adventure Pack in Skylanders: Swap Force, packaged with Pop Thorn and the Sky Diamond and Battle Hammer Magic Items.

Description

Tower of Time takes place in a sunny steampunk town situated around the aforementioned Tower of Time, inhabited by Kangarats and Mabus. The village's houses are made of the blend of stones, wood, and metal, with clockwork bridges and other machinery (such as Time Switches, pipe systems, flying machines, windmills, barges, and fans) scattered across the level. Lush grass, bushes, willow trees, and flowers lend the level a cheerful air which is reflected in the level's bright blue sky and sparkling waterfalls. In the past, the houses are log cabins and everything is notably less advanced.

Story

3DS

The Skylander arrived in time as one of the Time Keepers waited to explain to the Skylander that the Tower of Time has gone haywire and thst an dark energy has caused Time Crystals to become corrupted. This caused past and present to be in constant fluxuation and that if something isn't done, that time itself will begin to unwind. The Time Keeper tasked the Skylander to destroy the Time Crystals and also warned the Skylander about time shifting and sucking the Skylander into an different time period.

After reaching the first Time Crystal, Cluck showed up and send the Skylander to the Time Keeper in the past. After arriving in the past, the imprisoned Time Keeper beeged the Skylander to help him out of the cage since his modern tools were no match for the wooden cage. After freeing the Time Keeper, he reaveled thst he came from the future to save the past for his present self and proceeded to unlock the gates around the crystal. Back in the future (present for the Skylander, past for the Time Keeper), the Time Keeper welcomed the Skylander and told the Skylander to destroy the remaining Crystals.

The Skylander used an teleporter to get to the next area. After some progress in the Level, the Skylander broke up the gate infront of the Key which leads to the next Timr Crystal. But before the Skylander could grab the Key, Cluck appeared and brought the Skylander into the past again. In the past, the Skylander was able to get the key and to destroy the second Time Crystal. This resulted into the Skylander getting send back into the present and the Time Crystal being destroyed in the present aswell.

After teleporting to the next area, the Skylander met the Time Keeper again, who told the Skylander that the fluxuations are getting worse and the Skylander needs to destroy the Almana Time Crystal in the Tower before time is altered further. After traversing the Tower and reaching the top, Cluck came to send in waves of enemies which the Skylander was able to defeat. After all enemies were defeated, the enemy gate around the Almana Time Crystal lowered down and the Skylander finally destroyed the corrupted Almana Crystal.

After seeing what the Skylander did, Cluck gave up, but swore vengeance and flew out of the Tower.

Console

The Time Keepers have foreseen the arrival of Flynn and the Skylanders, seeking their help to find out what is causing time itself to turn backwards repeatedly. When the Tower of Time suddenly rewinds time itself, Flynn encounters his past self and the two immediately form a friendship before they returned to the present. Once there, the lead Time Keeper and the two Flynns discovered that the local villainous bird, Cluck, has taken over Clock Town with an army of Time Trolls after acquiring a new mechanical suit from them, making the Tower of Time his new home.

Despite the dangers littered around Clock Town, the Skylanders managed to obtain three colorful gears from Cluck's old nests that are needed to enter the Tower of Time to stop the evil bird. Once inside, they confronted Cluck within the Clocktower and defeated him, destroying his mechanical suit in the process. Cluck swears vengeance as he clumsily flies out of the Tower of Time.

As time is properly restored, the present Flynn and past Flynn part ways to their respective time periods, agreeing that "the universe could only take so much awesomeness at once" and they're both the best.

Trivia

  • The Tower of Time toy figure is the only Adventure Pack figure that glows in the dark. Later on, Sunscraper Spire and Midnight Museum would have Lightcore features, but do not glow by themselves.
  • The trolls in this level are Time variants of the Cadet CrushersBoom Bosses, and Loose Cannons.
  • The Time Keepers are an different species depending on the version, in all console versions, the Time Keepers are Kangarats while in the 3DS version the Time Keepers are Mabu.
  • Déjà Vu looked over the lost plans that were used to create the Tower of Time in her goal to create her machine.
  • When Cluck sends the Skylanders back to the past, the level's surroundings change, revealing what the village was like in previous days. The sky becomes a pinkish-red color, and the town appears to be much smaller, lacking its connective bridges and advanced machinery.
    • Countdown's Soul Gem footage is taken from this past version of Tower of Time, in an area that is not ever accessible to the player.
  • Tower of Time relies on many musical remixes. Its music includes variations of the "level complete" theme from Skylanders: Spyro's Adventure, Stonetown's theme, Rumbletown's theme (which plays indoors), Cube Dungeon's theme (which plays during battles), Arkeyan Armory's theme (which plays inside the clock tower), and Slime Pipe's theme (which plays during Cluck's boss battle).
  • In Swap Force's alpha, Tower of Time reused a version of Aqueduct's theme, likely for battles.[1]
  • Placing the Tower of Time on the portal also unlocks the Tic Toc Terrace Battle Arena, which is only available in Ring Out.
