Deltarune Guide | How to Climb the Tower in Chapter 5

The Tower Climb in Deltarune Chapter 5 is a pressure section built around movement, timing, and the All 7 Flowers encounter. Before entering the climb, save your file and check your healing items. If your goal is a Pacifist or Mercy route, avoid unnecessary damage and focus on Acts, defense, and Sparing whenever the game allows it.

Climb One Section at a Time

Move upward carefully instead of rushing every platform. Flower attacks can pressure you into bad jumps, so wait for a safe opening, then cross to the next ledge. If an attack pattern blocks the direct route, step back and let it finish before moving again. The safest method is to treat each screen as a small puzzle rather than one long climb.

Keep Kris centered when the path narrows and avoid hugging edges unless a jump or platform forces it. Most mistakes happen when you try to gain height too quickly while projectiles are still active.

Handle All 7 Flowers

During the All 7 Flowers sequence, build TP by defending and grazing attacks carefully. Use non-damaging Acts when they appear, then Spare or Pacify as soon as the Mercy condition is ready. Do not waste turns attacking if you are trying to keep the route peaceful. Each flower changes the rhythm slightly, so watch the attack pattern before committing to your next move.

Reach the Top Safely

Near the top, conserve healing and stop taking risky shortcuts. The last part of the climb is easier if you enter it with enough HP to survive one mistake. Continue upward, clear the final flower interaction, and move through the exit once the path opens.
