What happened to the Thwarts?
I finished 100 percenting POTZ and i noticed something odd. I am sure you know about the victory tour levels that you unlock after beating the game, in which you go to multiple locations where characters congratulate you on saving the universe from the Z-Bots. There are five of these levels if i remember the correctly and the first three are normal, you go to Wonderland, Fire Island and Sundog Island where you are thanked by Stinkers, Kabooms and the Ice Trolls respectively. The final two levels are quite odd, but the fourth one is the one i am talking about. You appear in the thwarts cave and all that is there is a sign. The sign tells you the the Thwarts had "issues" to deal with and leave you a star. What i want to know is what these issues are. My theory is that because you just destroyed the Void, the Thwarts are now displaced and are planning to get revenge on the Stinkers. Does anyone else of other ideas.
Re: What happened to the Thwarts?
Revenge? What for? It's heavily implied in the ending of WA1 that the Thwarts learned from their mistakes and likely integrated with the stinkers. I don't think the Thwarts even lived in the Void anymore. And I don't recall the Void being destroyed, although I may be misremembering the story a bit. The "issues" could be anything, but I don't think revenge particularly makes sense.

Re: What happened to the Thwarts?
If you do not remember, in POTZ we learn that Z-Bot Prime (The leader of the Z-Bots) found the void crystal, which teared a rip in spacetime, and allowed the void to make it's way into the universe. At the end of the game, we destroy the void crystal and the void itself. Oddly enough, after the ending cutscene of WA, the Thwarts are never seen again in any of the games.
Albeit, the void is inconsistent in it's nature throught the game. In Secret Worlds, the void is a storm system which swept the wee stinkers away. In WA, the void is a location on the other side of wonderland. And in POTZ, the void is some sort of cosmic dark matter.

Re: What happened to the Thwarts?
I too don't think thwarts want to take a revenge on stinkers. In the game it is said that they helped in placing the Star Ship in WonderTown Park. It may be anything... I am devoid of ideas!
Anyways there are a few more unanswered questions as well:
1. Once you defeat the Z-Bots and go back to Star Summit, Hawking tells that Wysp has found a strange new world. What could be that strange world?
2. Twinkle said Kepler is solving a mystery in Barren. But in Barren you never meet Kepler. There are lots of assumptions of this mystery. I think it could be "Blue Flower" or how to get into stone structures.
There may be more but I am able to remember only there two!
Also where do you think Thwart Cave is located in Wonderland? I don't know if this is mentioned in POTZ or not.

Hmm... no idea although I see MS tried his best to fit WSW map in WA1, e.g Forever Forest is in east of Creepy Keep in WSW, WA1 and also WA3. WonderFalls is also mentioned in WSW, south of Forever Forest! The Void is also on other side of Wonderland in WSW except its a storm system there in WSW and in WA1 place where thwarts lived.gottfriedjacob5 wrote: ↑Sun Mar 22, 2020 9:48 pmAlbeit, the void is inconsistent in it's nature throught the game.

Re: What happened to the Thwarts?
Headcanon: The Void isn't a location in Wonderland, but rather am entire dimension in and of itself. The area east of the Wasteland is actually a scar from ancient times, acting as a permanent link between the two dimensions.

Re: What happened to the Thwarts?
How did you learn that the void was a scar. Did they say that in the game and i missed it?

Re: What happened to the Thwarts?
Keyword: "Headcanon" (or, alternatively, "crazy daydreams").
In other words, the game doesn't say it; rather, it's my own personal theory. That being said: My crazy daydreams are so massive they effectively have their own canon, and Wonderland is just a part of them, so... In any case, I don't think it's described how it came into existence at any point in-game.

Re: What happened to the Thwarts?
One of the only thing i do not like about POTZ, is that despite likely being the last Wonderland game ever made, the game creates so many unanswered questions about the aftermath of the Z-Bots defeat. We will sadly likely never know.

Perhaps MS wanted to do more but ultimately was unable to? In any case, I'm sure the community is more than capable of continuing the story if they want to...

Anyway, POTZ was still an amazing end for the Wonderland series. I actually just got to the true end of the game about a month ago.

Re: What happened to the Thwarts?
Meanwhile I'm *STILL* clueless about how to get anywhere in the super-secret Secret Worlds ending, and honestly, I don't think I'm up to the task of ever getting it. Which is a shame, considering we're all forbidden to get hints to it... All we can really do is mention its existence.

Re: What happened to the Thwarts?

Re: What happened to the Thwarts?
I have heard that the secret is outside the game itself, and on some web page.

Re: What happened to the Thwarts?
Yep. It gives you the URL during the credits if you've 100%ed the game.
Unfortunately, it's not the kind of puzzle I'm good at solving. Like, at all. I don't even have the faintest clue of what I'm supposed to do...
In any case, good luck if and when you get to it.

Re: What happened to the Thwarts?
This sounds about right. So destroying the void crystal removed the Thwarts' former home, so maybe now they are finding a new home or rebuilding the land upon which it had replaced with the portal between dimensions.rainbowmon wrote: ↑Tue Mar 24, 2020 4:50 amHeadcanon: The Void isn't a location in Wonderland, but rather am entire dimension in and of itself.

Nothing is crazy in a magic-based fantasy setting, and Wonderland is very magical.

If I might ask, what was the fifth level and why do you think it was odd?gottfriedjacob5 wrote: ↑Sun Mar 22, 2020 1:14 pmI finished 100 percenting POTZ and i noticed something odd.

The 5th level is called Victory Tour: Deep Space, and it is located right before the area with the tube to star town

Re: What happened to the Thwarts?
Oh, but you don't even know the half of my crazy daydreams. We're talking everything from Wonderland to My Little Pony to Pokemon Mystery Dungeon to Miraculous: Tales of Ladybug and Cat Noir to Care-Bears and much more, and even some original worlds, dimensions, and characters - *ALL IN ONE UNIVERSE* (and of course, the name Rainbowmon of the Care-Monic Spirits comes from those daydreams, as I'm part of them too).Wonderman109 wrote: ↑Wed Apr 01, 2020 1:41 pmThis sounds about right.

Also: I should mention that my daydreams do in fact have numerous differences from the things they're based on, including Wonderland. Perhaps the one that's most relevant here: The Void Dimension was never destroyed, unlike in the games. I'll be here all day if I explain further than that...

The end of POTZ in many ways leaves many questions, but it was certainly a great ending to the Wonderland Series.

Re: What happened to the Thwarts?
Oh? Do you know about the super-secret final puzzle only able to be found after 100%? If not, wait around on the credits. It should give you the U.R.L. you need.

It took me a couple hours, but I was able to figure out the final website challenge! It felt so satisfying to solve!
