Wheel of Misfortune is the sole survival challenge level in the Islands. The level is an endless runner where players must collect as many score bubbles as possible without dying to hazards on or around the spinning "Wheel of Misfortune".
Overview
Walkthrough guide
Wheel of Misfortune requires the player to stay alive whilst running atop a large wheel spinning counterclockwise between two walls of horrible gas. The wheel is broken up into three layers, with the backmost layer being the tallest, and the frontmost being the shortest. Placed along each layer are score bubbles that travel with the wheel as it rotates. Upon entering the wheel from above, only a few obstacles in the form of walls are present, and the wheel spins slower than the player's running speed.
After the first series of walls, score bubbles will appear alongside small divots in the wheel's platforms; these divots can trap players and halt forward progression. At around the second half of the wheel, walls, pits, and strips covered in fire hazards are present, which can kill players upon two successive touches. All of these hazards require players to maneuver by jumping or switching layers. While this occurs, the wheel will gradually increase its rotation speed until it outpaces the player's running speed, at which point the player must jump periodically to resist the wheel's momentum. The hazards on the wheel do not change, which makes Wheel of Misfortune partially about memorization while also accounting for the wheel's speed.
After all players have died during the challenge, they will respawn at a checkpoint next to the scoreboard.
