Revised for Season 17

You thought the watchtower was high? Then you haven't seen this new extension yet! It's so high that you have a total overview and, with a few improvements, can always show other citizens a safe way into the town.

Construction

• Requirements for the Construction:

• The Watchtower must have been completed.
• The following resources must be in The Bank and will be used up after completion:

•   5×  Twisted Plank
•   1×  Telescope
•   1×  Convex Lens

• Citizens must spend 30 to complete the building.

• The costs can be reduced to 28 / 26 / 25 / 23 / 20 by Upgrading the Workshop.

Effects

• After construction the Guide to the World Beyond can be elected.
• At level 1 or above, the Observation platform will automatically reveal zones of the World Beyond in a given radius around the Town.
  • Building the Upgraded Map will even give exact Zombies numbers in revealed zones.
• At level 4 or above, an option in zones near the town will appear that allows Citizens to teleport directly back into town, saving up to 3 .

Notes

• The teleport is possible out of a zone without Control or even when Terrorised.
• If the Town Gates are closed, citizens are only teleported to the gates.
• With the Labyrinth constructed, the teleport function allows citizens to bypass the cost of entering the town through conventional means, the gates. It teleports you straight in instead.
  • It is impossible, however, to teleport back from the gates itself: 1 has to be spent entering from there (unless the Ventilation System is built).
  • Thus, it is possible to get stuck trying to search the Refuse with the last .
