The Diversity 2 Map is a diverse (duh…) map full of many challenges and exciting levels. The main goal of the map is to complete a monument by gathering different colored wool. This wool is given when you complete a challenge, and this is where the fun part comes in.
The challenges are many and varied, and consists of completing labyrinths where you have to find various heads from mobs scattered throughout the place, dropper levels where your goal is to get to the bottom without dying, parkour levels where you must use your skill in moving around to finish the varied levels, puzzle levels, trivia levels, survival levels, and much much more.
Completing the monument is not something you will be able to do right away, this map is filled with hours of fun and exciting genre-specific levels, that are sure to pose a challenge to even experienced players.
Should a challenge prove to be too much though, don’t fret, as you are allowed one free piece of wool each playthrough, which means that you can entirely skip a challenge if you wish. But only one.
