YAPYAP How To Extract: Ending A Run Safely
Extracting in YAPYAP is easy once you know what you are looking for: To leave a level safely, you must reach the extraction tower before the timer ends, or the ghost lady will show up and end the run for you. The key is spotting the tower and reaching the crystal at the top in time.
This guide explains exactly how extraction works in YAPYAP, what the tower looks like, and how to avoid getting wiped at the end.
How Extraction Works In YAPYAP
In YAPYAP, extraction is tied to a specific tower inside the castle. When the timer gets low, you must travel to that tower and interact with the extraction crystal at the top. If you do not extract before time runs out, the ghost lady appears and kills everyone still inside.
Finding The Extraction Tower
The extraction point is always inside a tall cylindrical tower that is designed to stand out.
Look for a round tower with a brightly glowing conical roof
The glow is strong and can sometimes be seen through walls
Going outside to a balcony or bridge makes it easier to spot
Once you see it, move toward that direction through the castle
The tower is usually visible from most areas if you stop and look around instead of wandering randomly.
Reaching The Extraction Point
Once inside the correct tower, the path is straightforward.
Enter the tower and find the large round interior room
Look for the small spiral staircase going upward
Climb the stairs all the way to the top
Interact with the crystal that looks like the one in the lobby
That crystal is the extraction point. Once you use it, your run ends safely.
Common Extraction Mistakes
A lot of failed runs happen because of timing or positioning, not difficulty.
Waiting until the timer is almost empty before looking for the tower
Staying deep inside the castle without checking balconies
Assuming extraction happens automatically when time runs out
Not realizing the glowing roof is the main visual clue
If the ghost lady appears, it means extraction was missed entirely.
Final Blurb
Extraction in YAPYAP is simple but punishing if you miss it. Find the glowing tower early, remember where it is, and head there before the timer hits zero. Once you know the visual cues, getting out becomes routine instead of a panic sprint.
