Big Room

Big Room is the name given to any number of outrageously large community subterranean excavations. The objective is nothing else than to create a big room. In the process, substantial amounts of ore and rubble are collected.

• Big Room I. This Big Room came together in Temporkalypse 2 (Lakeview).

• Big Room II. When Aporkalypse came back online after Temporkalypse 2 in March 2011, a major Big Room excavation took place near the town of Sunrise. This remains probably the largest Big Room to date, and can still be viewed about 11 km north of APK Spawn. It contains a large number of shops, tourist attractions, and art exhibits.

• Big Room III. This Big Room was created in Temporkalypse 3 in April 2011. Its most prominent feature was a bright lava and glass ceiling. It housed an art competition.

• Big Room IV. The last of the Big Rooms was created in Temporkalypse 4 in June 2011. This Big Room contained grass and a central garden area, along with a tunnel to Nigeria.

Projects similar to Big Room

• Big Dig in Temporkalypse 4 (originally a secret project).

• Stronghold excavations in Beans (Discordia) and Reporkalypse.

• Terrarium I (Beans Chicago) and Terrarium II (APK) which focused on building a large glass pyramid rising out of the ground. Needless to say, the majority of the excavation was underground, creating a Big Room type atmosphere.
