}}'''WAR''' is the nineteenth [[List of levels|level]] of ''[[Pizza Tower]]'', and the third level of the [[Staff Only]]. The level has a unique time limit mechanic, with no [[Pillar John]] and consequently, no [[Pizza Time]]. Instead, WAR has a timer activated soon after starting the level that is constantly active and must be extended through destroying [[War Terminal]]s found throughout the level.


WAR features three setting themes: a short entrance section set in a bunker, an outdoor section set in an active military battlefield, and an indoor section set in an industrial laboratory overrun by [[Peppino Clone|Peppino Clones]].
This level initially puts the player in an out-of-control battlefield, with the theme shifting to a secret laboratory which is overrun by [[Peppino Clone]]s. Throughout the level, a bomb constantly ticks down whose timer has to be extended by destroying War Terminals.


The level's titlecard takes place in the battlefield, showing a closeup of [[Peppino]]'s face as he screams in horror, while a grinning [[Peppino Clone]] wearing a helmet is running towards him.

WAR is the nineteenth level of Pizza Tower, and the third level of the Staff Only. The level has a unique time limit mechanic, with no Pillar John and consequently, no Pizza Time. Instead, WAR has a timer activated soon after starting the level that is constantly active and must be extended through destroying War Terminals found throughout the level.

WAR features three setting themes: a short entrance section set in a bunker, an outdoor section set in an active military battlefield, and an indoor section set in an industrial laboratory overrun by Peppino Clones.

The level's titlecard is set in a battlefield, with a closeup of Peppino's face as he screams in horror. In the background, a grinning Peppino Clone wearing a combat helmet runs away from an explosion and towards Peppino.
