Towers are recurring structures in the Puyo Puyo and Madou Monogatari series. In the Puyo Puyo series, it typically takes the form of a gauntlet where the challenge increases as the player ascends its floors. Satan seems to have a particular taste for towers, as they are often where he is faced.

Madou Monogatari I
The best known example of a tower in the Madou Monogatari series is in Madou Monogatari I, which sees Arle tasked with ascending one to pass her kindergarten class. She must collect three magical spheres, and defeat certain key monsters which depend on the version.
Puyo Puyo Tsu
In Puyo Puyo Tsu, the main single player mode is progressed through the floors of a tower. Opponents are separated by floors, and faced via roulette until the player raises enough EXP to advance.
In several console ports, a light story is presented. In Super Puyo Puyo Tsu, after finishing the beginner mode, Arle is invited by Satan to prove her worth as a Puyo champion, by facing the great Puyo masters he has gathered in his tower. Arle is intrigued, but decides on coming back another day, as she feels it's getting late.
Madou Monogatari (Saturn)
The opening crawl of Madou Monogatari (Saturn) tells of how Lagnus the Brave faced the Yoggus and sealed him within the Grand Sealing Tower. Once gameplay starts, Lagnus returns to the tower, and makes his ascent to finish him off. Just when it seems to all be over, Lagnus is pulled into a wormhole and sent to Arle's world.
Puyo Puyo Fever 2
The Tower is a location that appears in Puyo Puyo Fever 2. Here you are able to access the game's endless modes. At first, the tower is incomplete and a set of blueprints can be seen on a drawing stand, but can be rebuilt by completing the 10 stage story mode at the Tower. Hohow Bird can be seen here. This tower would reappear in later games, such as Puyo Puyo Tetris and Puyo Puyo Champions, as a stage background known as the Puyo Tower.
Puyo Puyo Chronicle
The Color Tower exists in Ally's world, residing in Purplune, the Purple Village which experiences eternal nightfall. The only way to reach the tower, proven by Witch's failed attempt to reach it by broom, is to gather all 5 colored star-shaped stones, one in each town visited by Arle's party. Once the party arrives, Satan is waiting for them, who tells Arle that its power can be used for them to return to the Madou World. Arle refuses, as she is unsure of what it would mean for Ally's safety.
