The Tilting Board is an obstacle that is sometimes encountered in the game.


The Tilting Board has a large long board with a rotating bearing at its center. It is usually supported on a large A-frame made of wooden beams or some similar structure. When something or someone is on one end of the long board it will start to tilt very quickly. It is possible for a hero to stand at the center of the long board without it tilting. The board can rotate so that it spins freely many times therefore it is not like a seesaw. It can be encountered as a single Tilting Board or occasionally as two next to each other. The Tilting Board comes in various different types and sizes.

Before negotiating the Tilting Board it is best to kill any Skeletons in the area first.


  • All three heroes can jump onto the Tilting Board and tilt it with careful timing and balance.
  • Knight: he can push the Tilting Board to position it.
  • Thief: she can push the Tilting Board to position it. She can also use her Grapple Hook on the board.
  • Wizard: he can place magical and non-magical objects under and onto the Tilting Board to jam or stabilise it. He can also use his levitation Ability to control the board and make it slowly rotate.

Note: the Knight and the Thief can use their weapons on the board but not very reliably.
