*Since the assets of the level were designed before [[Pillar John]]'s current design, the Pillar John-like creatures are noticeably rounder and have brow ridges instead of eyebrows.
==== Where is the Reception? ====
Another Jungle room, which has a secret only accessible by Super Jumping. There is one Forknight and one Cheeseslime, and a Toppin. This room has an alternate path in Pizza Time connecting it to "Daring Escape."

==== Super Slump ====
A rather long room, there are a bunch of moderately high platforms here and 3 Forknights, and a Pizza Boy, entering the next room from this room used to only be possible by using the Super Jump, but it was changed due to the Super Jump being nerfed. Even with the super jump's old nerf being removed, the room still has not reverted back to the older version. There is a secret here, accessible by super jumping and wall running. There is also a Pizza Block accessible by super jumping.

==== A City Now? ====
First room with the City background. A very long room introducing the Swedish Monkey with multiple high platforms, below the platforms are multiple Teleporter Pizzas. Taxis used to be in place of the teleporter pizzas, but they were replaced. This room also has some Forknights and Cheeseslimes, and a Toppin. There are some spawners with Swedish Monkeys which only appear during Pizza Time.

==== Sweden Heaven ====
A room with a lot of platforms and a Toppin, various Swedish Monkies, some Forknights, the Tower Secret Treasure and a secret. There are also spawners with Swedish Monkeys which appear during Pizza Time like the previous room. There is also a Pizza Block and multiple small breakable blocks blocking some parts.

==== World of John ====
[[Pillar John|Pillar John's]] room. Has three Cheeseslimes. John himself is blocked by a Metal Block.

==== Daring Escape ====
A room only accessible during Pizza Time, this acts as a link to connect "Where is the Reception" to "Jungle Shapes" during Pizza Time. This room has you go down some ladders and there are multiple Forknights, Swedish Monkeys and Mini Johns. There is also a Giant Pizza and a Pizza Block.

=== '''Secret Rooms + Treasure''' ===

==== Big Steps ====
Some steps (Not stairs) with 4 Cheeseslimes, leading to a Giant Pizza.

==== Sorry! ====
A secret only accessible during Pizza Time, this has a banana peel and 6 Cheeseslimes. You are supposed to slip on the Banana Peel and kill the Cheeseslimes, but this can also be done by dashing.

==== Not So Much a Secret ====
There are 3 Pizza Blocks here.

==== Don't Forget Your Moves! ====
There are also 3 Pizza Blocks here, but at the bottom of the room.

==== Eating a Big Pizza Alone ====
This room has one Giant Pizza.

==== Hamster Tube ====
This room has a lot of small Pizza Blocks and 3 twists and turns.

==== Placeholder Treasure Name ====
A treasure room.

== Trivia ==
* As the selection of playable levels expanded over the course of Pizza Tower's development, Entrance became the third to be the introductory level of a demo release. The first was [[Oregano Desert]] and the second was [[Pizzascape]].
* The long Pillar John seen sometimes in the first few rooms changes appearance during Pizza Time, much like how some backgrounds in older Patreon demos turn into demented versions once the escape timer starts. In its case, it gains a more angry look and opens its eyes, revealing yellow-ring shaped pupils, like those of the regular Pillar John.
* It used to be a tutorial level, ending before the "A City Now?" room.
* It is the only level thus far to have different music play depending on whether [[Peppino]] or [[The Noise]] is selected.
* Parts of level appear to heavily themed around [[Pillar John]]s, with the backgrounds filled with different kinds of Johns, like a round one, one that's beaten up, and one that's eating a pizza.
