VRChat is no stranger to real-life adjoining shenanigans, from hilarious McDonald’s roleplays to wild digital membership nights – but Monument, a new in-game world by which players construct a tall tower, may simply boast one of the most unusual group VRChat actions.
Each participant can contribute to the tower in Monument, so long as they make the lengthy trek up all the winding stairs to the high, the place they’ll place their contribution – a brick. The official VRChat account on Twitter exhibits Monument builders in motion in a current post, dubbing it “the best neighborhood challenge” to return of the on-line recreation. “In this world, each participant can contribute to a single, ever-growing monument synced throughout all situations of the world.”
How do folks get began as soon as they’ve entered Monument? “Begin by mining stone with a pickaxe. The stone drops rocks, which you’ll be able to then chisel into bricks. Place the completed bricks into baskets, and as soon as they’re full, they’re able to be carried up the monument.” It is a grueling path to the peak of the tower, but it is all price “going up and up” the steps as “the monument grows taller” with the addition of every mined brick – a true workforce effort.

As every thing is synced throughout situations, the tower “updates periodically” – and if it reminds you of one other tower, maybe a biblical one, you are not alone. Replies to VRChat’s video spotlight a selection of hilarious feedback from fellow followers, many of which evaluate the huge construct to none apart from the Tower of Babel. “This jogs my memory of one other well-known monument, but that one –,” jokes one participant. Certainly, that one by no means got here to fruition.
Why? When you’re not accustomed to the fantasy, God did not need it to. As one other fan jests in the responses, “We had a whole biblical story about why this is a bad thought.”
Others focus on their very own experiences in the digital world. “I used to be in an occasion of this world with like 30 folks, all the questies have been put to work, and everybody on PC was getting drunk on the tower,” writes a participant – and as a VRChat frequenter myself, their account sounds about proper.
Out of curiosity, I briefly hopped into an occasion of Monument and… between the rainbow crayon chaos and the sheer peak of the tower, it was overwhelming at finest. Maybe I will make the journey to the high tonight and place a brick of my very own.
