Yet another important piece of equipment, The Chronosticator! Its use was to keep track of various different worlds individual time streams, and how quick/slow they are in relation to each other. It also helps you sync the Towers time to the Worlds time, avoiding situations like ageing into dust because time moved too quickly on the other side.
Mechanically, this would allow you to switch collections of worlds with each other. Giving more room for different worlds to have cool constelations.
It originally came into being from the thought; "What would an extra wizardy clock look like?" The function came later.
This would be the other side of the tower, the Upgrade and Collectibles area. This is where you would upgrade gear, and admire your collectibles in the form of photos from various worlds pinned to the cork board.
The bookshelf for upgrading your staff and making potions, the lectern for learning and upgrading spells, the reagent shelf for storage, and the floating scroll over the stairs as a form of quest/task list.
The Crystal Ball on the table is what you would use to access new worlds, where the idea was that you tap it, and a star map akin to the one from Treasure Planet would pop up. You select a starsign, and a portal would open to that world.
Since this was a game that was supposed to be on the more exploratory side, I also had an idea for another type of collectible you can look out for:
The Mini Mimic.
They are young mimics, monsters that disguise themselves as inanimate objects to gobble up unsuspecting people. But since they are young, they aren't that good at hiding yet, so they often miss things like eyes or teeth that aren't supposed to be there. They are relatively harmless at this size, but leaving them to mature is irresponsible, so it's best to put them away.
One of the more important pieces of equipment in the tower is the telescope. But, since this is a wizard tower, it is a magical telescope.
Its function in the hypothetical game was to allow you to scout new worlds, who would appear in the "sky" as star signs. Once a world has been discovered, it would be recorded in the floating tome next to it. There used to be a much more complete version of the tome, but Merlin snagged it when he disappeared, so you're starting again from scratch.
