Map
The areas a run climbs through, floor by floor, and the buildings each is made of.
Districts
| Slums | Welcome to the city! Try to have some good, clean, wholesome fun, ok? | 1–3 | ||
| Industrial | Welcome to the Industrial Zone! We strive to provide a safe working environment for all of our expendables! | 4–6 | ||
| Park | Welcome to the City Park! a.k.a. Cannibal Country. Warning: Outsiders will be horribly mutilated. So in reality, you're not really that welcome at all. I apologize for misleading you. | 7–9 | ||
| Downtown | Welcome to hip and happening Downtown! Enjoy your stay! But not too much, let's not get crazy here. OK look, just keep your expectations in check and your gun in your pants, and we won't have a problem. | 10–12 | ||
| Uptown | Welcome to fabulous Uptown! Not allowed: Alcohol, drugs, heavy weapons, and lower-floor hooligans without Upper-Crusty status. Upper-Crusters may enjoy the protection of our top-tier security. Non-Upper-Crusters may enjoy the unbridled wrath of our top-tier security. | 13–15 | ||
| Mayor Village | 16 |
Disasters
Events that take over a floor: riots, ooze, hidden bombs and worse.
A disaster takes over floors 3, 6, 9, 12 and 15, the last floor of each district, picked at random from the ones allowed there. In a Quick Game that's floors 5 and 9; in Endless it's every 3rd floor (every 4th in a quick game). No Disasters turns them off, and Disasters Every Level brings one to every floor.
| Ape Town | Apes have overtaken this sector. Damn them all to hell! | |
| Bombs Dropping | Bombs are falling from the sky! | |
| Bounty | A bounty is on the player's head, so random people will attack unexpectedly! | |
| Hidden Bombs | Find a bunch of hidden bombs before they decimate the area! | |
| Killer Robot | A killer robot is out to get you! | |
| Land Mines | Mines are hidden everywhere! | |
| Ooze | Ooze is spreading! Try not to touch and/or lick it! | |
| Police Lockdown | Police have locked down the city. They won't be happy you're out and about! | |
| Radiation Blasts | Radiation rains down upon all outdoor areas every 20 seconds! | |
| Riot | Lots of rioters are causing chaos in the streets! | |
| Shifting Status Effects | Players and NPCs get new Status Effects every 10 seconds! | |
| War Zone | There's a war going on in the streets! | |
| Zombies | Zombies. 'Nuff said. |
Environment
Floors and walls that change how you play: hazards, water and ice, and what it takes to break each wall.
| Arena Floor | Floor | People on it are arena fighters: their fights are sport, so bystanders neither flee nor react to the noise. | |
 Border Wall | Wall | The edge of the level: nobody can charge or be knocked through it. | |
 Canal | Floor | Water: everything about water applies. | |
 Conveyor Belt | Floor | Carries people and items along in one direction, and throws items off the end. In Downtown, only in the Mall. Turning off the area's Power Box stops it. NPCs treat it as a danger. | |
 Flame Pit | Floor | Burns for good: touching it hurts and knocks you back, and NPCs avoid it. Keys, keycards, safe combinations and quest items dropped in reappear by the nearest player. Putting its grate out of action stops the fire. | |
 Glass Wall | Wall | Blocks shots but not sight: NPCs who see an enemy through glass walk up to them instead of shooting. Breaks like a normal wall. | |
 Hole | Floor | NPCs who fall in die; players lose health and climb back out where they last stood. Most NPCs keep away from the edge and only fall when knocked back, frozen, dizzy, paralyzed, electrocuted or mind-controlled. Items fall in too. Falling puts out fire and clears Frozen, Dizzy and Electrocuted. | |
 Ice | Floor | Slippery: people and items slide and are slow to stop. Roller Skates keep their grip. Water freezes into it on the second floor of each district. | |
| Ice Rink | Floor | Slippery like ice. | |
 Normal Wall | Wall | Breaks to a strong melee hit, to someone knocked into it hard, or to any explosion. | |
 Pool | Floor | Water: everything about water applies, but it never freezes. | |
 Steel Wall | Wall | The hardest wall: only a very strong melee hit, a huge explosion, Blaster Master or the Demolitionist at full power breaks it. Never breaks from someone knocked into it. | |
| Train Tracks | Floor | A mine cart (Slums to Park) or a train (Downtown and up) runs along them and hits anyone in the way hard. Walls are cleared along the line, and nothing is placed on it. A hard enough hit wrecks a train, which explodes. | |
 Water | Floor | Swimming slows you down. Electrocution hurts far more in water, as do Power Sap blasts and the Ghost Gibber. Stomp can't hit swimmers, and swimmers can't Stomp. Molotovs that land in water don't explode. A drug or poison mixed in with a Water Pump, or by hacking a computer to poison the water, affects everyone swimming in it. On the second floor of each district, it freezes into ice. | |
 Wood Wall | Wall | The weakest wall, and the only one that burns: fire destroys it when it goes out, and oil fires spread through it. Water, fire extinguishers and freeze rays put the fire out. |
