History VideoGame / ToontownOnline

** The Sellbot Task Force questline is completely new to the base game and features all-new mechanics, battles, areas, and story.
** The crocodile and deer species were added to the game via election, bringing the total Toon species count to 11.

* AscendedExtra: Dr. Surlee, a minor character that was part of Loony Labs in the original TTO game is responsible for many of the Toon innovations in TTR, including the Portable Hole (the creation of which was originally attributed to Gyro Gearloose on a TTO trading card) and the Silly Meter. [[spoiler:Dr. Surlee is the "rewritten" form of Gyro Gearloose, making him even MORE of an ascended extra as Gyro's only TTO appearances were in the TTO beta intro, which TTR ignores the retcon of in the full game, and TTO trading cards.]] This time around, he's crucial to the ENTIRE backstory!

* PrecisionFStrike: In a first for the game and overall lore, the Chainsaw Consultant's post-battle dialogue has him swear as he realizes what his personality override has made him do.
-->'''Chainsaw Consultant:''' Ugh... That ''damned'' override...

* TheGoomba: Level 1 Cold Callers, Short Changes, Bottom Feeders, and Flunkies. They only have 6 HP, and their attacks deal between 1 and 3 damage. A Flunky in particular is used to teach the player about basic battle mechanics in the [=ToonTorial=].

* TheGoomba: Flunkies, Bottom Feeders, Short Changes, and Cold Callers are the weakest Cogs in their tracks. They deal low amounts of damage, and are the only Cogs that can be level 1. Any damage-dealing gag can defeat a level 1 Cog except the Bike Horn.

** The gag pouch/bag/backpack; the place where you keep your gags.

* ''[[hhttps://toontownarchive.com/ Toontown Archive]]'', originally called ''Toontown Infinite''. Was the most solidified private server besides TTR in regards to content, often serving as its only real competition for a few years. Original format deleted on April 13th, 2016, to make way for active archives of ''Online'' as it was in development.

* ''[[http://www.toontowninfinite.com/ Toontown Infinite]]'', private server closed, however a single-player with ''VideoGame/{{Minecraft}}''-like multiplayer support is in the works.

* ''[[https://toontownrealms.com/ Toontown Realms]]'', originally known as ''Toontown Offline'', currently active. ''Realms''[='=] focus is on creating episodic content that serves as a continuation to the original game's storyline. The game is playable in a single-player format, though multiplayer is possible with up to 16 players.

* ''[[https://corporateclash.net/ Toontown Corporate Clash]]'', originally known as Project Altis, with a focus on creating new content, including new Toon species, new bosses, and storylines told in comics and [=ARGs=]. Currently active.

* ''[[https://toontownoffline.net/ Toontown Offline]]'', currently active. ''Offline''[='s=] focus is on creating episodic content that serves as a continuation to the original game's storyline. The game is playable in a single-player format, though multiplayer is possible with up to 16 players.

* SmashingHallwayTrapsOfDoom: Many of the Cog Headquarters have these, most notably the Sellbot factory which has an area that is quite literally the definition of this trope.

* GreaterScopeVillain: When the CEO is defeated, he says, "The Chairman won't be happy about this!" The "Chairman" he's referring to is never shown in-game, but is implied to be more powerful than even the CEO.

* GreaterScopeVillain: When the CEO is defeated, he says the "the Chairman won't be happy about this!" The "Chairman" he's referring to is never shown in-game, but is implied to be more powerful than even the CEO.

** Eleven new toon species have been added as of 2022, bringing the total to 20.

* NamedByTheAdaptation: All Cogs have been given names to go with their titles.
** To name the classic four, we have Chief Justice John Robolts, Chief Executive Officer Craig Edgar Oilcan, Senior Vice President Allanwrench Bravecog, and Chief Financial Officer Chris P. Dolair.
** The brothers at the top of the Boardbot hierarchy are Chairman Robert Cyger and Chief Operations Officer Thomas Saggs.
** The Chief Legal Officer's name is Diane Morsecode.

* RoamingEnemy: The Regional Managers are a set of boss cogs that can occasionally be found roaming the streets of each neighborhood. Other than being significantly more powerful, they can be fought like any other cog.

* ''[[https://toontownoffline.net/ Toontown Offline]]'', currently active. Offline's focus is on creating episodic content that serves as a continuation to the original game's storyline. The game is playable in a single-player format, though multiplayer is possible with up to 16 players.
* ''Toontown Apex'', cancelled. While in development, Apex was one of the only private servers with a focus on providing a drastically different Toontown experience than the other servers, focusing on new endgame content for skilled players.

* ''Toontown House'', currently inactive. One of the earliest private servers besides Rewritten, but much more unstable.
* ''[[https://toontownoffline.net/ Toontown Offline]]'', currently active. Offline's focus is on creating episodic content that serves as a continuation to the original game's storyline. The game is playable in a singleplayer format, though multiplayer is possible with up to 16 players.

* AllegedlyFreeGame: It claimed to be free to play, with perks for subscribers. Of course, those perks included: the ability to venture out of Toontown Central and its three streets, to learn more than the first four levels of Gags (attacks) of the two starting Gag tracks, buy clothes for your Toon and furniture for your house (among other things) from Clarabelle's Cattlelog, play games other than the few {{Mini Game}}s in the first Playground, buy items for friends, and so on. It later got a ''lot'' better with this - free accounts allowed you to go anywhere (however, you can't buy anything outside of Toontown Central), use Speedchat Plus, buy from the Cattlelog and have up to 50 friends. Unfortunately, free users couldn't go into Cog Buildings or buy stuff outside Toontown Central. Then, when Toontown was closing, all Toons could buy stuff, go on missions to all the areas, fight Cog bosses and wear items. And now that Toontown is being reopened by fans, it's free to play... FOREVER.

* AlternateRealityGame: While you can play through Rewritten without being aware of it, the game's backstory was revealed in an ARG discovered through tidbits given in the game's news releases.

* AscendedExtra: Dr. Surlee, a minor character that was part of Loony Labs in the original TTO game is responsible for many of the Toon innovations in TTR, including the Portable Hole (the creation of which was originally attributed to Gyro Gearloose on a TTO trading card) and the Silly Meter. [[spoiler:Dr. Surlee is the "rewritten" form of Gyro Gearloose, making him even MORE of an ascended extra as Gyro's only TTO appearances were in the TTO beta intro, which TTR ignores the retcon of in the full game, and TTO trading cards.]] This time around he's crucial to the ENTIRE backstory!

** One for the Cogs - Version 2.0 Cogs were updated to not only ignore carryover damage,[[note]]prior to this, any damage done to a V2.0's outer shell that would bring it over the kill range was transferred to its Skelecog second form[[/note]] but their outer shell also received [[DamageReduction Reinforced Plating]] which would ignore a flat amount of damage for every attack used against it equivalent to 1.5 times its level.

* CounterAttack: The Boiler's "Stamp Of Disapproval" attack. He only uses it in his Defensive Phase, and only if someone attacks him, but if he uses it, the offending Toon will take ''50'' damage - and that's only how strong it is in a one-star Field Office!

** Version 2.0 Cogs have Reinforced Plating, being able to resist damage from every individual attack equivalent to 1.5 times their level. For example, a level 12 Version 2.0 Cog would resist 18 damage against every individual gag, meaning a Birthday Cake would go from 100 damage to 82 damage, and four Foghorns would go from 200 total damage to a mere 128.[[note]]154 after the same-Gag bonus - still well short of the kill range[[/note]]

** In Toontown Rewritten, during the Doomsday event, if you tracked down a cowering Alec Tinn behind the Bank, he'd think you're one of the Cogs.

** The Cogs say different lines in Toontown Rewritten when you use the New Friend command on them.
---> [The Mingler] [Adjusts its tie nonchalantly] and [said 'is friendship legally binding?']

* TurnsRed: [[spoiler:The Four-Star Boiler in Kaboomberg has a Meltdown upon reaching its final bar of health. During Meltdown, it summons new Cogs at the end of every turn like in Defensive Strategy, powers up all attacks like in Fired Up, uses two attacks every turn (one from its offensive pool and one from its defensive pool), and applies a permanent DamageOverTime effect that only gets stronger with every turn - in essence, once this Boiler turns red, it is literally do-or-die.]]

-->'''Chief Justice:''' You know, Bob, when you told me about your brilliant oil drilling plans for Toontown, I didn't know what purpose I would serve. I was just a law student at the time, and I certainly wasn't versed in corporate law. You knew what you were in for when you hired me. Looking back, it was quite the jestful choice on your end. I joined the company thinking I could work in a cushy executive job out in the middle of the Drastically Dry Desertland. But once that wizard turned on the super-duper air conditioner, my attitude changed quite drastically - pardon my pun. I tried to voice my concerns to Robot Resources, but honestly, that department happened to be even more inept than me, even though I quite literally ran a governmental law office inside of a corporation. The fact that you haven't attempted to fire me before this time makes it quite clear that you are lacking as a leader, that you would rather have someone else fill in your shoes. Your tiny, minuscule shoes. It brings me ''great'' pleasure to tell you, Bob, that you have been an awful boss and an even worse leader. I hand in my resignation with a clear conscience. And furthermore, just like how this company went from rags to riches, here is my final act of justice, returning this rag on my face to eventually lead you astray from riches. I'm finally retiring. Goodbye Bob, may this company forevermore be a burden to your existence. And thanks for nothing, except my pension!
* LevelGrinding: Even more relevant to this server due to ExperiencePoints being how you unlock new gag tracks and increased health, as opposed to the original and Toontown Rewritten where this is accomplished by completing certain tasks.

** One for the Cogs - Version 2.0 Cogs were updated to not only ignore carryover damage,[[note]]prior to this, any damage done to a V2.0's outer shell that would bring it over the kill range was transferred to its Skelecog second form[[/note]], but their outer shell also received [[DamageReduction Reinforced Plating]] which would ignore a flat amount of damage for every attack used against it equivalent to 1.5 times its level.

* ChekhovsHobby: When you play the minigames, there is one minigame where you have to shoot yourself out of a cannon and aim yourself into a big tub of water. [[spoiler:Later in the game, when you fight the CJ, guess what you have to use?]]

* DropTheHammer: The giant gavels in [[spoiler:the Chief Justice battle]].

* ExtendedGameplay: Beating all the Toontasks in the Toon neighborhoods unlocks the [[spoiler:Cashbot suit Toontasks]]. Beating that unlocks the [[spoiler:Lawbot suit Toontasks]]. Beating that unlocks the [[spoiler:Bossbot suit Toontasks]]. Beating ''that'' unlocks [[spoiler:quite a few "Just for Fun!" Toontasks]].

** The CFO will regularly spit out goons with the intention of harassing the Toons, [[spoiler:only for those Toons to use them as weapons against him]].

* SoftWater: The final Toon-Up gag is [[spoiler:a high dive into a cup of water.]]

* ThrowTheMookAtThem: The C.F.O battle [[spoiler:with his own goons getting thrown at him as well as his own safes when he is stunned.]]

* BalanceBuff: In Version 3.0.0, the Trap gag was given a major buff. The capacity of how many trap gags can be carried was increased to be on par with the other gags (i.e. 3 [=TNTs=] instead of 2, 7 Trapdoors instead of 5, etc.) Trapdoors now deal up to 85 damage (or 93 when organic) instead of 75, and Railroads deal 200 damage instead of 195, which is enough to destroy a Level 12 Cog, and does not need to be organic to work.

* FishingMinigame: There's a fishing pond in every Playground and on every Street. There's Fishing BINGO every Wednesday, sometimes you have to fish for a Toon Task's objectives, and sometimes you fish just because it's one of the most lucrative methods of gaining [[GlobalCurrency Jellybeans]].

* ForeverWar: The Toons vs. The Cogs. Rewritten gives more insight on the start of the war, but in both versions the fighting has been reduced to a stalemate. The Cogs take over buildings, the Toons take them back. It just keeps on going.

* FriendlyTickleTorture: The first Toon-Up gag is the Feather. The animation involves the user tickling a Toon with a large yellow feather, restoring some of their Laff points.

* FunHatingVillain: The main objective of The Cogs is to destroy all the fun and colorful happiness in Toons and create a business utopia. Practical jokes are also what destroy cogs.
* FunPersonified: Most of the Toons qualify. That's... probably the very reason various practical jokes are their main weapon.

* PunnyName: The head of ''Cathal Ray Toby'' Bravecog, the Multislacker, is a ''Cathode Ray Tube'' television.
** And then there's the Pacesetter, Graham Ness Payser, whose frenetic mannerisms would certainly make you think he should take the ''FitnessGram Pacer'' test.

* GreyAndGrayMorality: Unlike ''Online'', the Toons and Cogs aren't always in the right or wrong, as Ottoman loves plants, talks at length about his family situation, and praises how the Chairman is a loving father to his son, while the Toons can be arrogant and self-centered and caused the ''death'' of a high-level Cog, inspiring his family to take revenge. The Rainmaker boss fight has her lament how she just wanted to play tic-tac-toe with Bessie Barnacle and got a piano dropped on her.

** The Rainmaker just wants to be left alone and had a piano dropped on her when she tried to befriend Bessie Barnacle, and her Cog attacks aren't always under control.

** The Rainmaker just wants to be left alone and had a piano dropped on her when she tried to befriend Bessie Barnacle, while her attacks aren't always under control.

* TragicVillain: The Chainsaw Consultant wishes he never went to work for the Chairman due to a personality override program that turns him into a monster, while the Rainmaker just wants to be left alone and had a piano dropped on her when she tried to befriend Toons.

* PinkGirlBlueBoy: Indirectly. In the Create-A-Toon menu, certain color options were initially limited by gender. For instance, boy Toons could not be pink or wear pink clothes, and girl Toons could not be blue or wear blue clothes. [[SubvertedTrope These limitations were since removed.]]

* {{Arcadia}}: Some Goofy's Speedway race tracks take place on peaceful farms that don't seem to connect to anywhere in Toontown.

** Trap gags, if nobody can use a lure gag to trap the Cog into the trap gag.
** The entire Drop Track. While they are second only to trap gags in terms of damage done, they have the lowest base accuracy of any gag track. Unless you have a friend who is simultaneously training Squirt Gags (very high accuracy), you're gonna be gag camping for a looooong time.

* ManBitesMan: The Loan Shark's "Bite" and "Chomp" attacks involve it throwing a set of dentures at a toon.

* MassMonsterSlaughterSidequest: [=ToonTasks=] in general can often ask for the player to defeat ''a lot'' of Cogs. The numbers gradually increase as the game progresses: Toontown Central tasks won't ask for any more than 10 Cogs, while tasks in Donald's Dreamland may ask for up to 1,000. The type of Cog in question usually varies - the task may simply ask for Cogs in general, Cogs from a specific department, specific Cog species, Cogs of a certain level or above, and/or Cogs in a certain location.

* WeaponizedBall: The "Play Hardball" attack involves a Cog throwing a baseball at a toon.

* TheStoic: Much like what was mentioned in TTO's Toon News You Can Use, Dr. Surlee has never been seen smiling. This time around, he has a good reason for it. He does, however, crack the occasional joke. He is a toon, after all.

%%* SlapstickKnowsNoGender: There are four female Cogs in Toontown; The Mingler, Number Cruncher, Micromanager, and Name Dropper, all of which can be subjected to the same slapstick violence (slipping on a BananaPeel, sinking in quicksand, getting a PieInTheFace, getting [[AnvilOnHead hit by an anvil]], etc.) as the other cogs.

** The Toons have an extra Gag track, Zap, that only works when paired with Squirt.
