* To pass, you must build the tallest obelisk of each type. Your obelisk must be at least one cubit higher than any other obelisk of the same type.
 
* '''Before building''', click Self -> Tests... -> Architecture... -> Test of the Obelisk -> Meditate on Obelisks to see the current heights of each of the types of obelisks in the area.
 
* You must retain the title of largest Obelisk for at least 2 days 8 hours (for a Desert Obelisk.)
 
* You may or may not decide to sign up in a queue to build and avoid an obelisk war of continual overbuilding. 
 
 
 
* When the Obelisk passes, a notification will be given (along with a Talent Point). The obelisk will then show the text 'This Obelisk achieved its goal'
