The Floor is Lava!

Hey everyone!

It's been a long time since we released a new game mode, no? Well, we've got a one for you: The Floor is Lava!

This mode is unique — it's our first fully cooperative mode. Instead of students competing against each-other, they work together towards a common goal.

The objective the mode is simple: stay above the lava as long as you can!

Once the game starts, lava will begin to rise. It starts off slow, but gets faster and faster over time. Students will work to construct a tower. Once the lava eclipses the tower, the game ends!

Building The Tower

On the student's end, they'll have a special section in the shop to purchase builds. Those builds will increase the height of the tower.

The builds get more and more expensive, but they also add more and more height. Strategize, budget, and plan!

Special Powerups

The Floor is Lava also has two special powerups!

Lava Pause stops the lava from rising for 10 seconds. However, only 30% of students will get this powerup.

When students purchase a build, its takes some time to fully complete. Instant Build gets their new pieces built instantly!

Pick Your Difficulty

As your students try to beat their record time, you can make things easier or harder for them. We've got four difficulties for you to choose from: Easy, Normal, Hard, and Ludicrous!

Too Far Ahead?

While students are playing, you'll have a button to increase the height of lava by 10%. This is great if you want to end the game early, or if students are doing a bit too well.

Have Fun!

The Floor is Lava leaves Gimkit on October 19th. After the 19th, Humans vs Zombies will come in for Halloween.

That's it! That's all you need to know about Floor is Lava. Drop in, have fun, and hopefully your students can set some new records!
