The Tower returns in Destiny 2 and with it a few activities and mini-games for Guardians to pass the time. We present them to you!
Who doesn’t know him? That one colleague who takes what feels like an eternity in the Tower to sort his gear. Or that friend who says he will be online “in a minute,” which quickly turns into 15.
So you don’t get bored while cursing this special colleague, Bungie has hidden a few mini-games in the Tower again that you can play to pass the time.
The Floor is Lava
This game is probably familiar to everyone from their childhood. The goal of the game is to reach a certain spot without touching the ground, or else it’s “Game Over.” You can play this game in the new Tower of Destiny 2 once you have completed the main campaign.
You can find the mini-game one level above your starting point in the Tower. The corresponding spot is marked with the words “Don’t pick me up”:

When you activate this warning, you start glowing red, and a debuff appears on the left side – “The Floor is Lava”. At the same time, a point lights up at the other end of the Tower that you must reach unharmed. You can always just jump off the balcony for fun…
The Ball is Back – and it has a big buddy!
We weren’t the only ones sad to learn that the purple ball in the Tower of Destiny 1 was sneakily flattened by Ghaul. The disturbing images went around the world and took our breath away.

But don’t despair – the purple ball is back. And this time you can prove your skills and change the color of the balls. Because when you place the balls in certain spots in the Tower, they disappear after a little fireworks, and a new ball of a different color appears!
- If you place the purple ball in the right spot in the courtyard, a green ball appears
- If you place the green ball correctly, a black ball appears
- If the black ball is in the right place, the blue ball spawns
If you also manage to place the blue ball correctly, a giant ball appears in the center of the Tower. Since this looks like the Traveler, it will of course be welcomed with fireworks.

How you can unlock the Traveler ball is explained in the following video:
