The Tower of Magic is a special event introduced on 15 Sep 2021 (Version 41) and later substantially revamped several times. It was originally a bi-monthly alternate of Ninja Tower, later the Tower of Styx was added. These three comprise Tower Events, similar to Challenge Events in having a score based on "speed of completion and the amount of health left at the end" as well as final rewards by ranking, but with no replays. They run for five days from Wednesday to Monday morning.
The Tower of Magic's 25+50 stages, or "floors", in two difficulties are accessible through special Tower Energy: 10 fully replenished each day. (So climbing to the top requirs a rare Tower Flask, on sale at 50 Gems for 5 Energy in the temporary Tower Offers. This new necessity of spending to finish the event brought some dissatisfaction in the community.)
The main difference from Ninja Tower (which see for details) is that the Magic Book tile causes a Magic Curse, taking out most heroes after a single strike, not two. However, "Heroes of Magic classes (Wizards, Sorcerers, Druids and Clerics)" are disallowed only after 5th Curse.
Further differences from the original form of Ninja Tower (separation of floors into 2 difficulties, Normal and Impossible that can be attempted only after completing the Normal, which also influences scoring; bigger choice of Blessings after every second floor, with every third, i. e. after multiples of 6, a stronger Rare Blessing) were retrofitted into Ninja Tower as well.
In March 2022 (Version 46) the Tower of Magic got even its associated Epic Magic Troops which are the event's main benefit, influencing gameplay everywhere else.

The Family#Magic Family Heroes have a unique Mana Speed: Magic, meaning it can be "supercharged" with 200 % mana, increasing the effect. This is usually estimated as 5.5 (5.6?) tiles for the first charge and about 12 (12.3?) for the second.
Family Bonus for 1/2/3 Heroes:
When this Hero casts their Special Skill, 50 / 75 / 100 % chance to cast + 5 % mana generation stack on a random ally. (Max stack: 10)

During the Tower of Magic event, special Epic Magic Troops are available using the Tower Troop Summon that replaces the usual Epic Troop Summon. The summon rates are:
- Rare Classic Troop 85 %
- Epic Classic Troop 10 %
- Epic Magic Troop 5 %
As the chance for Magic Troops comes at the expense of baseline Rare Troops, while the 10 % of standard Epic remains the same, it pays to save the tokens (or Gems) for the event.
Fully levelled Epic Magic Troops have 22 / 16 / 22 / 20 % bonus for Attack / Defense / Health / Mana. They are the first new troop to break the long-standing 15% mana limit of the regular Mana Troops.
