It's the same tune, but the tower itself is a little different in the game.

In Silver and Gold - from what I've read - Sprout tower consists of many floors. Just like it does here. There are also a handful of NPCs on each floor to battle with, and the pillar in the middle sways from side to side.

When the player took a look around, they found themselves in such a room. A floor of the Sprout Tower. However, there were a variety of differences between the room he was in, and how it would - should - normally look. For one, it was completely void of life.

There were no NPCs to be found. It was just him.

For another, the pillar? It wasn't moving at all. It was almost as if the tower was simply laying upon its side.

Stranger still, no music played. No sound played at all. And there didn't seem to be any exits available to him. He was also without an escape rope - or any item, really, when he checked his bag.

So, from everything he could tell, there was no way out of this room. He simply wandered around, until finally stepping behind the pillar. It appeared to be a ladder there. And when he took it, the screen went black.

And music finally started playing.

Have you ever visited the Ruins of Alph, John?
