The Rainbow Crystal is an item found in the Wonderland Adventures indie PC puzzle game series by Midnight Synergy. It is a giant magical crystal that can be used to prevent The Void from spreading through Wonderland.
How and when the Rainbow Crystal come into existence is never revealed in the games. In the original Wonderland Adventures game, the player must complete the Rainbow Crystal by collecting all seven of its components, the Rainbow Shards, which are all scattered across different locations in Wonderland, in order to prevent The Void, which is being made to spread through Wonderland by the seven Thwarts who live there, from engulfing Wonderland completely.
Once all of them have been found, the complete Rainbow Crystal pushes The Void back out of Wonderland, and also gives all of the Thwarts their own color, making them redeem themselves when they realize that diversity is to be treasured rather than feared and befriend the Stinkers.
In Wonderland Adventures: Planet of the Z-Bots, the complete Rainbow Crystal can be found on the highest tower of the Wonderland Academy. Wobniar, the Stinker responsible for guarding it, mentions the player character's quest to find its Shards in the first game, and says that it is what is keeping the Academy hidden from the sights of the Z-Bots.
Powers and abilities[]
- Void dispelling: The Rainbow Crystal has the power to dispel Void energy.
- Coloring: The Rainbow Crystal has the ability to give things colors, as seen at the end of the original game when it gave each of the Thwarts one of their own.
- Concealment: In Wonderland Adventures: Planet of the Z-Bots, Wobniar mentions that the Rainbow Crystal is being used to hide the Wonderland Academy from the sights of the Z-Bots.
- Teleportation: The Rainbow Shards, at least, can be used to teleport to different locations by hitting one of them three times (a different one for each location) and repeating the melody they then play by themselves. It is unknown if the complete Crystal has this power as well.
