A great lake in the center of the continent of Ossyria. The flow of time there has been frozen by Rhinne, the Transcendent of Time. Between the Korean Folk Town of the past and the Omega Sector of the future, lies Ludibrium--forever in locked in the present.

― In-game description for Ludus Lake

Ludus Lake consists of the town of Ludibrium above, and several other towns accessed via the two towers supporting Ludibrium: Eos Tower to the west and Helios Tower to the east. Eos Tower represents the future, supported by Omega Sector below. Helios Tower represents the past, supported by Korean Folk Town below and allowing players to travel back in time to Ellin Forest, a region in Victoria Island's past. In addition, you can use a cable car in Ludibrium to travel to Fantasy Theme World. To preserve the innocence of childhood, the king sent his advisor to ask the Goddess of Time Rhinne to stop time in Ludus Lake, and she reluctantly agreed. However, this resulted in time becoming distorted, with Dimensional Cracks starting to appear in Ludibrium, causing strange monsters from another dimension to start appearing in the depths of the clocktower. The most powerful of these monsters lingers in the center of the clocktower, causing time and space to become distorted and manipulated however it wishes. This region can be accessed via airship by talking to Sunny the Cabin Crew at Orbis's Station to Ludibrium.

On this continent, 10 maps can be visited to obtain the Medal  Ludus Lake Explorer. Ludibrium is the only town that contains a field boss: Timer, a owl-like clock spirit. The Major Boss Papulatus can be fought in the Clocktower Bottom Floor, and OMNI-CLN can be fought in Omega Sector.

Helios Tower

Helios Tower is located to the east of Ludibrium, serving as a passageway between Ludibrium and Korean Folk Town, located at the bottom of the tower. Similar to Eos Tower, it consists of 100 floors, but only the 100th, 99th, 2nd, and 1st floor (library) are accessible by foot, with an elevator allowing for quick travel between the 99th and 2nd floors. In addition, there is a Time Control Room above the 100th floor which allows players to travel to Ellin Forest.

Eos Tower

Main article: Eos Tower

Eos Tower is located to the west of Ludibrium, serving as a passageway between Ludibrium and Omega Sector, located at the bottom of the tower. While it consists of 100 floors, many of these floors are single maps covering 20 to 30 floors at a time. The Eos Magic Rock throughout the tower also allows you to travel to specific floors for 15,000 Mesos.
