Helltower is a Payload Race map added in the Scream Fortress Fifth Halloween Special. It is the Halloween-themed version of Hightower.
Contents
Objective
The objective is to push a cart of gravel containing the Mann brothers (Blutarch for RED, Redmond for BLU) to the lift at the high towers before the other team. Once either brother is pushed to the checkpoint, all players will be sent to a demonic cave only known as Hell.
In Hell, the teams are pitted against each other, and all players must attempt to enter the Skull Island. Any players killed in Hell become ghosts and must pursue the living players. Only one team can receive the Spellbook at a time. Players that survive and reach the book receive an empty Spellbook, which can be filled with pages found from the Haunted Halloween Gift.
Locations
- The Hightowers
- Central Tower
- The Crossing
- The Ramp: Unlike Hightower, the carts do not fall back down these ramps by gravity.
- Cliff-House: Its back wall is now opened up and can be fallen off of.
- Balconies
- Tower Corridors: Some changes have been made here, including small puddle rooms on each side that players can drop down into, and small inaccessible tunnels, which can be used to teleport to the opposite tunnel when you are affected by the shrinking spell.
- The Bridge: Appears and disappears.
- Hell: When one of the caskets reaches its goal, both teams are sent to Hell.
