TOPHAT
Spoilers may be contained on this page.
Players may want to avoid or be cautious toward reading this article/section.
After rescuing his best friend, 
Big Challenges,
TOPHAT is often seen on the beaches of 
Seaside Resort.
Personality
A mysterious friend and supercomputer found on the island.
TOPHAT worries a lot, especially about his sometimes-impulsive best friend, Big Challenges. The crocodile's lengthy stay in an ice block only made TOPHAT worry more, though he only worries because he cares about his friend so much. TOPHAT is generally not forgetful, but he is still recovering from his memory loss. No one is sure just how well TOPHAT's memories have recovered after the restoration of the Power Crystals. He still seems to be missing some things, like a stable holographic projection and his feet.
Gifts
The player can give TOPHAT up to three gifts per day, which will raise his friendship with the player. Players will receive 
Glitch as a reward for each gift given to TOPHAT. The amount received depends on the value of the gift and the closeness of the friendship.
If the player has reached maximum friendship level with TOPHAT, they will receive his Character Gift Box 
for each gift given or quest completed.
