== Monolith ==
The monolith has long been a mysterious structure, added [[0.22.0.19372023 - The Grand NK-86 Memorybox|June 5th, 2023]], that '''does nothing''', except pulse red during the month of monolith (game equivalent of April). Players can spawn the monolith from the tab and use it however they like as it currently has no effect on the world. '''This is changing''' in the next update with the monolith getting not just one but multiple uses/powers. 

The monolith was most directly featured in a [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z7tYCYmCNp0&t=0s youtube video] posted on December 25 of 2024. In the video the monolith seems to be in some way linked to harps (another new mysterious building) and pusles much more vibrantly, occasionally ejecting a dna symbol as it pulses. Look below for more details on the video

In some cases, the Monoliths' power may trigger unexpected mutations."<gallery>
