Tower of Doom/Monsters

Note: All monster names are conjectured, since none of them are specifically named in the manual. However, Tower of Doom was originally planned as a licensed Advanced Dungeons & Dragons title, but was unfinished when Mattel Electronics was closed, and was then finished and released without the AD&D license by INTV Corp.

Given the inclusion of canonical AD&D monsters like the Beholder and Owlbear, it seems extremely likely that the monsters were modeled after creatures from the AD&D mythos, and they have been named accordingly in this guide.

Monsters with a speed of "Very fast" are faster than the player.

Enemy	Name	Speed	Exp	Description
	Giant rat	Slow	10	Weak and relatively stupid. Will accept valueless items in barter, e.g. a boot.
	Serpent	Slow	10	Fairly weak.
	Stirge	Very fast	10	Relatively weak, but dangerous to underpowered character classes like the Waif.
	Skeleton	Slow	20	Relatively weak. Will accept valueless items in barter.
	Giant stag beetle	Fast	40	Does low-to-medium damage. Small chance a successful hit against you will be abnormally high (about 3 yellow shields worth).
	Axebeak	Average	80	Does low-to-medium damage.
	Giant scorpion	Slow	160	Does medium damage. Small chance a successful hit against you will permanently reduce your HP (black bar).
	Owlbear	Slow	320	Does high damage. This is the first monster that is notably challenging. Seems harder than the wraith (but slower).
	Wraith	Very fast	640	Does medium-high damage. Extremely fast.
	Hydra	Slow	1280	Does very high damage. This monster and all ones after it are extremely tough. Be prepared, or chip away with projectiles before hand to hand combat.
	Beholder	Average	2560	Does very high damage.
	Dragon	Slow	5120	Does very high damage.
	Wizard	Fast	10240	Does very high damage.
