== Overview ==
 
'''Zugzwang's Tower''' is a location in the [[Rodentia]] region requiring a minimum rank of [[Lord|Lord or Lady]] and the [[Zugzwang's Tower Key]] to enter.
 
 
 
Upon catching a [[Mystic King]] or a [[Technic King]] with any cheese besides [[Checkmate]], the hunter is automatically transported back to the [[Seasonal Garden]] with the following message:
 
 
 
''Checkmate! I defeated a Technic King Mouse! I was transported to the Seasonal Garden.''
 
<br\>
 
OR
 
<br\>
 
''Checkmate! I defeated a Mystic King Mouse! I was transported to the Seasonal Garden.''
 
 
 
Upon catching a [[Chess Master]], the hunter is automatically transported back to the [[Seasonal Garden]] with the following message:<br\>
 
''Checkmate! I defeated a Chess Master! I was transported to the Seasonal Garden.''
 
 
 
Upon exiting Zugzwang's Tower, by traveling or catching a King or Chess Master, the Tower Progress will reset as well as the [[Tower Amplifier]]. Reaching 0% on the Tower Amplifier does not transport the hunter out of the tower, but at that point, it is impossible to catch any further mice without traveling elsewhere.
 
  
Hunters must complete the [[Capture the Mystic and Technic Kings]] '''adventure''' to obtain the [[Sandtail Call to Arms]], which is necessary to gain access to the [[Fiery Warpath]].
+
In the [[Calm Clearing]] location, the '''{{PAGENAME}}''' will also be attracted when hunting with [[Cherry Cheese]].<br/>
 +
In the [[Calm Clearing]] location, the '''{{PAGENAME}}''' will not be attracted when hunting with [[Gnarled Cheese]].
  
== Shops ==
+
===Charm===
There are no shops in Zugzwang's Tower. Shops for the Rodentia region can be found in the [[S.S. Huntington III]], [[Seasonal Garden]], and [[Iceberg]].
+
No [[Charm]]s are required to attract the '''{{PAGENAME}}'''.

== Hunting Strategy ==
+
==Locations==
Hunters are advised to use their strongest Tactical setup. Upon entering the location, hunters will only be able to attract two breeds of mice, the [[Mystic Pawn Mouse]] and the [[Technic Pawn Mouse]]; the Pawn Pincher weapons are recommended for this stage as they will allow the hunter to focus on catching Pawns from one 'team' rather than both. The [[Mystic Pawn Pincher]] and [[Technic Pawn Pincher]] are sold in the Seasonal Garden [[Trapsmith#Seasonal Garden Trapsmith|trapsmith]], so in order to use one for the current amplifier charge, it must be purchased before traveling to the Zugzwang Tower. Hunters will need to catch 8 Pawns, then 2 Knights, then 2 Bishops, followed by 2 Rooks and a Queen; all from the same 'team'. Only then will that team's King be 'unlocked' and available to attract.<br\>
+
Hunters can encounter the '''{{PAGENAME}}''' in the  
Catching either the [[Mystic King Mouse]] or the [[Technic King Mouse]] will cause the hunter to be immediately transported to the [[Seasonal Garden]], unless they were using [[Checkmate]] [[cheese]], in which case the hunter will then be able to attract the elusive [[Chess Master]] if they continue using [[Checkmate]] cheese.
 
 
 
A 'Double Run' is when a hunter aims to catch the King from both teams. This can be achieved by first completing one team, and using Checkmate cheese to catch the first King to remain in the Tower, then arming standard cheese to attract the pieces from the second team. Upon 'unlocking' the second King, the hunter will need to decide if they wish to arm Checkmate cheese, to be able to continue hunting the Chess Master, or standard cheese to be transported to the [[Seasonal Garden]].
 
It is also possible to complete a double run by catching mice from both teams concurrently, this strategy is harder to succeed with because the hunter will be attempting to catch the powerful pieces (Rooks and Queens), and the final Kings from '''both''' teams when the Tower Amplifier will be significantly depleted.
 
 
 
=== Cheese Usage ===
 
Hunters may use any cheese in this location, but each time a bait fails to attract a mouse, the [[Tower Amplifier]] is reduced by 3%, so many hunters prefer to use [[SUPER brie+|SUPER|brie+]] due to the low attraction rate of [[Brie]] or [[Gouda]].<br\>
 
In order to be able to encounter the [[Chess Master]], a hunter must use [[Checkmate]] cheese when hunting a King in order to remain in the Tower.<br/>
 
Checkmate cheese can also be used before hunting a King.  This bait will increase a hunter's chance of attracting the most powerful mice they're able to attract.  For instance, if a hunter needs to catch a Rook in order to unlock the Queen, the hunter may decide to use Checkmate cheese to increase the odds of encountering a Rook.
 
 
 
===Adventure Book===
 
Hunters can [[Capture the Mystic and Technic Kings]] by catching all the '''Technic''' and '''Mystic''' [[Wizard's Pieces]] mice to obtain the [[Sandtail Call to Arms]].
 
 
 
Hunters can complete steps to [[Capture Zurreal the Eternal]] by catching the [[Chess Master ]] to charge an [[Uncharged Scholar Charm]] and obtain a [[Scholar Charm]].
 
 
 
=== Hunting Tips by Larry ===
 
Greetings, Mousehunter!
 
 
 
I hope you've got your [[Tower Amplifier]] charged, because the mice of Zugzwang's Tower are going to put up a fight unlike any other.
 
 
 
Long ago, the Tower mice became enchanted chess pieces in a game that never ends. The two teams, Technic and Mystic, use a clear strategy when attacking, much like real chess pieces. Catching eight Pawns releases the Knights. Catching two Knights releases the Bishops. Catching two Bishops releases the Rooks. Catching two Rooks releases the Queen, and catching one Queen releases the King.
 
 
 
Did you get all that? Don't worry if you didn't-- when you enter the tower, your Tower Amplifier also comes equipped with a progress bar to let you know how close you are to the King!
 
 
 
Each time you catch a mouse, or fail to attract, your Tower Amplifier's charge decreases. Make sure you don't leave the Tower before you catch a King, or drain your Amplifier. If you do, your progress, and your Amplifier will be set back to zero.
 
 
 
If your strategy is sound, and you capture the King, your progress will be reset and you will be whisked away to the Seasonal Garden. If however, you catch a King using the rare Checkmate Cheese then you shall remain in the tower and a greater adversary will await your challenge.
 
 
 
==== Banner Tips ====
 
Everytime you hunt in the tower, your amplifier will go down making your trap less powerful.<br/>
 
Leaving the tower will reset it to zero!
 
 
 
These are the Technic mice you have caught since entering the tower.<br/>
 
The mice must be caught in this order: Pawn, Knight, Bishop, Rook, Queen, King.
 
 
 
These are the Mystic mice you have caught thus far.<br/>
 
Capturing either a Technic or Mystic King resets your progress and moves you back to the Seasonal Garden.
 
 
 
Watch your amplifier! As it drops, so will your trap power.<br/>
 
Good luck, and be sure to shout Checkmate when you capture a King!
