− | The '''Royal Jelly Palace''' is a set of three slime-themed levels in the [[Clockworks]] immediately above [[Emberlight]], spanning depths 15 to 17. At depth 17, knights will have to face a giant jelly known as the [[Royal Jelly]].

− | The Royal Jelly Palace is an ancient castle overtaken by a legion of slime monsters. It is unclear what purpose the castle serves, though it is rumored to be the house of a Royal Jelly, said to be the nobility within the slime kingdoms. If true then the purpose of the castle is likely to serve the Royal Jelly, and nothing more. | + | {{Quote|The Royal Jelly Palace is an ancient castle overtaken by a legion of slime monsters.

| | | |
− | Unlike regular Clockworks levels, the Palace is a permanent feature of one of the gates and has a fixed location within the second [[Tier]]. Its presence in a gate is indicated by a power distortion causing a slime theme to be predetermined at stratum 4 of a [[Gate construction|dormant gate]].
| + | == Characteristics == |
| + | Each level map is fixed. |
| | | |
− | ==Levels==
| + | Several levels of this region are always a permanent feature of one of the [[gate|arcade gates]]. Their presence in an arcade gate is indicated by pink rook icons and their location is always in [[Tier|tier 2]]. Oddly, in the {{mission|The Sovereign Slime}} the levels are shallower, starting at depth 14 and ending in depth 16. |

− | '''Map'''
| + | Levels are populated by multitudes of [[Jelly Cube]]s. A few [[Lichen]]s, [[Construct]]s, and [[Silkwing]]s make appearances. Of special note are the mini jelly cubes, a special monster found abundantly in the Royal Jelly Palace and rarely in other places. A [[boss]] known as the [[Royal Jelly]] is encountered in ''Battle Royale''. |

| | | |
| + | Similar castle-like structures can be seen in the {{location|Candlestick Keep||1.2}}, {{location|Firestorm Citadel||1.2}}, and {{location|Scarlet Fortress||1.2}}. Tapestries seen around the Palace have the same design as the ones found in the Fortress. |
| | | |
− | After activating the party button directly north of the elevator, there are three columns of Jellies:
| + | == Notes == |
− | *Left Column-
| + | A version of the Royal Jelly Palace has been "frozen over" as a [[Shadow Lair]], featuring a similar group of levels and monsters with a [[freeze]] theme. |
− | *Middle Column- 3 Royal Minis, 2 Jelly Cubes
| + | |
− | *Right Column-
| + | |
− | Having defeated those Jellies and activated the switch to the gate, you will enter a large courtyard with 2 mineral deposits and two buttons randomly placed under crystal blocks on your left and right. Activation of anyone of these buttons will open its respective gate and cause: 6 Royal Minis, 3 Jellies and 1 Blast Cube to spawn. Upon entering the right gate, the following will spawn:
| + | |
− | *6 Jelly Cubes total, 1 Lumber, 4 Gun Puppies and a number of Royal Minis.
| + | |
− | To the left, in the checkered, spike filled room, these monsters will spawn:
| + | |
− | *6 Jelly Cubes total, 2 Lumbers, 1 Silkwing and 6 Royal Minis
| + | |
− | After placing the Stone Cat Statues on the solid colored blocks in the courtyard, the main gate opens. Two (usually green) treasure boxes will be right in-front of you. You will then enter a courtyard with a party button. Upon its activation these will spawn:
| + | |
| | | |
− | '''Wave One'''
| + | A [[Recon Module]] left by [[Parma]] can be found in the treasure room after defeating this region's boss. |
− | *6 Jelly Cubes (tier 2)
| + | |
− | *2 Jelly Cubes (tier 3)

− | '''Wave Three (Final)'''
| + | |
− | *3 Jelly Cubes (tier 3)
| + | |
− | *1 Lumber
| + | |
− | *12 Royal Minis
| + | |
− | After subduing the main monsters (All except Royal Minis) the gate to the elevator will open. In the hallway toward the elevator, there are six treasure boxes.

− | After activating the party button, immediately 2 Jelly Cubes shall spawn. There are now several ghost blocks ahead, hitting and advancing through;
| + | |
− | *1st Spawns 2 Jelly Cubes and a Lumber
| + | |
− | *2nd Spawns 3 Jelly Cubes and a Lumber
| + | |
− | *3rd Spawns 4 Jelly Cubes, 1 Lumber and a Silkwing
| + | |
− | Recovering the Stone Cat statue and placing it on the solid colored button opens the gate to a party button. Activating it gives you access to a large room with many randomly placed blocks and regularly placed ghost blocks (which make the job of removing the breakable blocks easier) Under which, 4 target colored buttons are located. Your main hallway is blocked by 3 key gates. For each gate opened by a target colored button, there is one key inside (spawns when party button activates). The extra key (optional) can be used to open a key gate just passed the triple blocked hall, which contains several treasure boxes. Since the fourth key is optional, if not opening the key gate with the treasure boxes, you have the option of skipping it.
| + | |
− | | + | |
− | The layout of the different areas are as follows:
| + | |
− | | + | |
− | '''North-East'''
| + | |
− | Room with several spikes and the following monsters spawn just before getting to the ghost block which releases you into the fight:
| + | |
− | *6 Jelly Cubes
| + | |
− | *2 Gun Puppies
| + | |
− | *1 Lumber
| + | |
− | *1 Silkwing
| + | |
− | '''South-East'''
| + | |
− | Room with ghost blocks which clears the path to one of four target colored buttons which opens the gate to the key:
| + | |
− | *3 Jelly Cubes
| + | |
− | *9 Royal Minis (two of which are set to a respawning block of its own)
| + | |
− | *4x(4 Jelly Cubes+8 Jelly Green Mini behind the blockade to each button)
| + | |
− | **After the final button is pressed, the gate to the key opes and spawns a Lumber.
| + | |
− | '''North-West'''
| + | |
− | Room segmented into three parts by regular and stone blocks;
| + | |
− | *1st 3 Jelly Cubes, 2 Gun Puppies
| + | |
− | *2nd 4 Jelly Cubes, 2 Gun Puppies and 1 Lumber
| + | |
− | *3rd 4 Jelly Cubes, 2 Gun Puppies, 2 Lumbers and 2 Silkwings
| + | |
− | '''South-West'''
| + | |
− | Room segmented into four parts by gates controlled by target colored buttons in each section;
| + | |
− | *1st 3 Jelly Cubes
| + | |
− | *2nd 3 Jelly Cubes, 1 Super Blast Cube
| + | |
− | *3rd 4 Jelly cubes, 1 Super Blast Cube
| + | |
− | *4th 4 Jelly Cubes, 1 Lumber
| + | |
− | | + | |
− | Having had at least 3 available keys, you should be able to access the next room, which is quite large and has a party button. Activating it will then spawn:
| + | |
− | | + | |
− | '''Wave One'''
| + | |
− | *2 Gun Puppies
| + | |
− | *2 Jelly Cubes (tier 2)
| + | |
− | *2 Jelly Cubes (tier 3)
| + | |
− | | + | |
− | '''Wave Two (Segmented)'''
| + | |
− | *2 Lichens, 2 Silkwings (When Gun Puppies from the previous wave are defeated)
| + | |
− | *5 Lichens, 2 Lumbers (When the tier 2 and 3 Jelly Cubes from the previous wave are defeated)
| + | |
− | | + | |
− | '''Wave Three'''
| + | |
− | *3 Jelly Cubes (tier 3)
| + | |
− | *1 Ultra Blast Cube
| + | |
− | | + | |
− | '''Wave Four (Final)'''
| + | |
− | *1 Lichen Colony, 7 Lichens and 2 Silkwings
| + | |
− | | + | |
− | After defeating those monsters, the gate to the elevator will open. In the hallway leading to the elevator, there are six treasure boxes.

− | ==Strategy==
| + | |
− | The best strategy here is to lure the jellies and silkwings away from the lumbers and defeat them first to save a great deal of time and health. Destroy the lumbers, then any gun puppies - they are the last targets as they are most vulnerable.

| + | |
− | {{main|Royal Jelly}}
| + | |
− | A "blitz" approach is often recommended to finish off the Royal Jelly in the most efficient manner (ignoring other monsters, as they will all de-spawn up the Royal Jelly's defeat).

| + | |
− | *While in Arcade gates Garden of Goo is depth 15, Red Carpet Runaround is depth 16 and Battle Royale is depth 17, in the mission The Sovereign Slime the depths are one lower for each. This is likely a bug.
