Boardwalk

The **Boardwalk** is an area in the top right side of the Plaza with a few stores, games and a couple of carnival rides.

## Stores

The Boardwalk has 4 stores:

* Fresh Food and Smoothies, which sells ingredients for the currently-unreleased cooking feature
* Celebrations, which sells fireworks, holiday-themed items, and houses The Ghoulcery Store and Santa's Workshop while their respective events are inactive
* Franky's Grill, which sells various equippable food and drinks
* Gone Fishin' Bait Shop, which sells rods, bait, and aquariums for fishing

## Games

### Typing Derby

A competitive typing game where up to 8 players race to finish typing a paragraph before time runs out. Typing Derby primarily uses passages from various public domain literature (most often *War of the Worlds*), but also uses some user-submitted paragraphs too. It is currently the only Boardwalk game to have its own section in the Collection Book.

See Typing Derby's article for more information.

### Fishing

The water surrounding the boardwalk is a designated fishing spot. One of two Gone Fishin' Bait Shops in the Plaza is located at the far end of the boardwalk, by the Ferris Wheel, for easy access to rods and baits.

### Carnival Games

The Boardwalk has 4 carnival games and 2 arcade games to play. Each of these games pay out with Tickets which can be spent at The Asteroid Belt, a prize store in the Arcade. Click on the images below to travel to their respective articles.

## Other Attractions

### Poseidon

A rideable roller coaster with a Greek / water theme. There isn't any minigame attached to the ride, and there aren't any payouts for riding it, but it does have two Achievements; one for riding it once and another for riding it 10 times.

### Ferris Wheel

Like Poseidon, the Ferris Wheel is a rideable ambient attraction that doesn't have any payouts for using it; however, it also does not have any achievements. Players can get on and off the ride at any time, and can rock the carts by pressing/holding W.

## Upcoming Attractions

Be aware that the content of this section may be inaccurate or incomplete, or subject to change.

### Bumper Cars

Bumper Cars is an upcoming attraction described as "fast-paced minigame frenzy" in which players bash each other with their bumper cars to gain points. The link to its roadmap page is attached here.

### Shooting Gallery

There is a Shooting Gallery with a wild west theme in the Boardwalk, attached to the Theater building, which is currently not playable. It was in Lobby 2, the original iteration of Tower Unite's Plaza, but was not present in Lobby 3 until the Halloween 2022 update. There is no roadmap page for this specific Shooting Gallery, although there is one for the Arcade's shooting gallery, which is attached here.

### Kamikaze

Kamikaze is a ride inspired by the KMG Afterburner where a minigame would be played each time it was ridden: the only two confirmed planned games were Balloon Battle (somewhat similar to the Balloon Burst event) and Russian Roulette (in which the ride's gondolas were terminated one-by-one and players would bet on who would survive the longest). Kamikaze is the Indiegogo Backer Reward for a Custom Boardwalk Attraction; the roadmap page for it is attached here.
