Each level is full of challenges, enemies, traps and tests, and only the strongest manage to reach the top. Along his journey, Bam meets other characters who also have their own reasons for climbing the Tower, such as Khun Aguero Agnis, a cunning strategist, and Rak Wraithraiser, a huge and fearsome warrior. Together they face different challenges as they explore the intricate hierarchy of the Tower, where the desires for power, revenge and sacrifice are intertwined.
The webtoon has been a global success, with more than 6 billion views and has inspired three anime adaptations.
