The '''Tower''', also called the '''Great Tower''' and other similar names, is the central structure in the [[Simulation]]. Throughout [[The Talos Principle]], the player ([[Athena]]) is warned by [[Elohim]] that ascending the tower will lead to the player's death (in reality, ascension will lead to Elohim's death and to Athena's consciousness being transferred to the physical world).

The elevator in the tower can take the player to floor 1 as soon as the tower itself is accessible (that is, after leaving the [[Land of Ruins]]), but all other floors requires first using a terminal within the tower. For floors 2 through 5, this requires using the terminal on the previous floor, which is accessible only after completing a puzzle.
