The structure was the first structure made within Achievement City by Matt and Jeremy, who according to Geoff took down the original construction and built the new tower.

The only way to leave the original world is to go through one of four giant doors that were built along the fence, one in each of the four cardinal directions (this rule was originally stated by Geoff when the world was first expanded but has since been largely ignored by the Achievement Hunters, Geoff included).

• Cake Walk - A structure consisting of several stacks of cakes sitting on top of a layer of glass blocks, which floats above a pool of lava.
