Overview[]
Known as an "open-air garden" that is the holy sanctuary of a certain mummy gang, the Skyscraper District and Pharaoh Park is a high up area with two attractions, Pharaoh Park, and the abundance of skyscrapers. Whilst here, the player can find a giant sphinx statue as well as a whole area of rooftops to skate around on. The highest building of them all is the observatory which you must grind on the beams, taking the player one level up. The telescope on the top of the observatory can be used to perform multiple air stunts after grinding. It is linked to 99th Street, Highway Zero, the Site of Tokyo Line, and Sky Dinosaurian Square, which makes it the central area for the 99th Street District, although it lacks a path to the Tokyo Rokkaku Expo Stadium and the garage.
Story[]
During the story, the GG's cover up all of the graffiti the Immortals put up. After that, they face them in a short game of Tagger's Tag. Then, they will run off to Highway Zero, which leads into another round of Tagger's Tag.
Later on, the GG's head back to the skyscraper district to which they meet an exhausted Poison Jam member who reveals that Yoyo went to Sky Dinosaurian Square. If Clutch is caught on time at Pharaoh Park, he will reveal where Yoyo is being held captive.
