Disney's Toontown Online/Gameplay

What really IS Disney's Toontown Online, you may ask? It's a 3-D Online computer game that allows you to meet up with friends, take down the evil Cogs, and have fun activities. Since it's a game allowing you to become stronger, it's an RPG game.

Like most online games, Toontown requeires a payment in order to play. In here though, there is one other option: you may try the game for three days using a Free Trial account. You may not get everything you want here, but at least you have a chance to see the life of Toontown.

In this game, you will have to fight off what these robot enemies are called Cogs to save the world of Toontown. You will face off with a weak cog at your new start, but as you train more, you WILL run into bigger and badder cogs. Defeat them to train your Toon with bigger and better abilities and gags.

Gameplay
Like other games, Toontown has weapons, currencies, enemies, and friends. Toons battle Cogs and complete Toon Tasks, as well as obtaining the Toontown currency Jellybeans, skill points (SP), and bigger abilities to become powerful against most cogs.

The Toons become powerful depending on two things: their Laff (HP) and Gags (weapons). Some Toon Tasks give off higher laff as a reward, while others give bigger space for gags. There are other ways to boost up your laff: Gardening, Fishing, and Racing.

Toontown's 3-D style lets you see everything in your view. The controls for the game are used by your keyboard and mouse. The keyboard lets you chat to Secret Friends, jump, or move around. The mouse allows clicking on other players and cogs, selecting Gags, opening up Shticker Book and friends list, or click an option. It cannot be rearranged for other players.

The Toons are all placed in one world with many districts. Each district is a copy of the Toontown world. If a place is too populated, you may move from district to district. There are circles that represent the population of the district. Blue circles mean it barely has any Toons. Green is normal. Red is way too populated and blocks other players from entering the district until one player from there leaves the district.

New Toons
When you create a Toon, you will jump into a Toon Creating Session. Unlike any other games, Disney's Toontown Online does not contain any jobs. They all meet each task to face off the Cogs. The beginning stats are simply for every new toon: 15 Laff with Throw Gag Cupcake and Squirt Gag Squirting Flower and 1 task at a time. As you become stronger, you will have bigger and better gags, huge laff, and able to work on four tasks at a time.

Once your toon is made, he or she cannot be edited.

Death
There is no real death. Your Toon actually becomes sad. Most people use sad as die.

When a Toon's Laff fully depletes, he or she dies or becomes sad. This is shown as the Toon bowing down, turn around while shrinking, and disappears. Before the Toon disappears, it can still talk until it poofs away.

You will not gain any SP for your gags when you lose in the battle. When you lose, you will lose also everything for that time of attack.

The Toon is sent to the nearest town, depending on which neighborhood it fought in when it died. There, the Toon will still be bowing its head down and will move slowly. There it will take a while for the Toon to refill its Laff, since you can regain one Laff point at a time. Once that laff point is gained, he or she may pick up treasures around the town to regain laff. However, you cannot gain Laff from these if your Laff Meter is still zero.

Abilities
Toons obtain bigger abilities through the Catalog or Toon Tasks. The catalog will cost Jellybeans to buy stuff, but it's worth it. You can buy a bigger wardrobe, a huge Jellybean Bank, or even a better fishing rod. The Toon Tasks are much harder to complete. They offer new gag tracks, more laff, more tasks, more space for jellybeans, and larger space for gags.

Gag Tracks
The Gag Tracks are what builds up your strength towards the Cogs. They give off better attack power the more you train. You get bigger gags by your SP. Each gag track has a meter for the SP you gain in battle. If the SP hits the number of SP needed, you will obtain a new gag, which is better than the previous one.

Note that when you fight a low cog, you may find a background of a gag greenish. This means that the Gag does not give SP. When that gag is used, it won't give off any SP at all because you used a strong gag against a weak cog.

You start off with the Throw and Squirt track. To make off with a new gag track, you must complete 16 Toon Tasks for them. Each gag track Toon Task adds one frame to your gag track page in your Shticker Book. The only way to get all 16 is to do them one by one. When you complete the other upgrade tasks, you will end up with the Final Gag Track Training Toon Task, which once you complete it, you will finish the neighborhood with your new gag track.

Here are your choices in each neighborhood.


 * Toontown Central - Toon-Up or Sound.
 * Donald's Dock - Lure or Drop.
 * Minnie's Melodyland - (Toon-Up or Sound - whichever you didn't choose first) or Trap.
 * The Brrrgh - Whatever is left.

Daisy Gardens and Donald's Dreamland does not have a Gag Track Training task.

Parties
You can't really form a party. Just gather some friends and go fight off Cogs. It's not really a way to gain SP fast, due to the fact that you and your friend can raise your attack power if you aim for one cog with the same gag track, but at least it can help your friend. When your friend does not do anything though, he or she may not receive SP because they have to attack to get SP.

Cogs
The Cogs are your main enemy. They went out of control by an evil big robot and now there's strong cogs roaming the streets. Your only way to fight them off is to use powerful gags. Some Cogs are too strong for you that you won't even finish them before they finish you!

Most cogs appear as a Boss Cog. In the Sellbot H.Q., there are two bosses: the Factory Foreman, and the V.P. Same goes with Cashbot H.Q.: the Mint Supervisor and the C.F.O. Much goes with Lawbot H.Q. also: the District Attorney's Office Clerk and the Chief Justice.

Toon Tasks
As you have learned already, Toon Tasks build up your Toon a lot. There are many different Toon Tasks, each giving off a reward for completing a Toon Task. Once the Toon Task is done, it will appear green, which you have to turn in the task to the person you need to come to.

Upgrade Tasks
Upgrade Tasks are simply a way to get your Toon powerful. There are many tasks like this: Laff Tasks, Gag Bag Tasks, Jellybean Jar Tasks, Gag Track Tasks, Multi-Task Tasks, Cashbot/Lawbot Tasks, and Telport Access.


 * Laff Tasks - These simply increases the max laff points.
 * Gag Bag Tasks - You will have more room for more gags.
 * Jellybean Jar Tasks - More Jellybeans means less Trolleying or Fishing!
 * Gag Track Tasks - Better Gags!
 * Multi-Task Tasks - You will need more Tasks for quicker process.
 * Teleport Access - Allows you to jump from neighborhood to neighborhood.
 * Cashbot Tasks - These Tasks reward you with Cashbot suit parts to fight the C.F.O.
 * Lawbot Tasks - There's only one task. It rewards you all 14 Lawbot suit pieces to fight the Chief Justice.

Optional Tasks
The Optional Tasks are stuff you can do for fun. Optional Tasks are marked with a "Just for Fun!" at the topleft corner of the task. These will change your Toon or give Jellybeans.
