1. There are five main zones: Forest, Desert, Glacier, Mountains, and Core. All can be reached with designated coordinates inputted into the super computer, except the Core, which requires a transporter that has a password (SCIPIO) that must be entered into the super computer by the computer handler.
2. Monsters are viruses sent in by X.A.N.A, a program created by the creator of Lyoko that went bad, to keep the players from deactivating towers. They can be destroyed by striking the XANA symbol on them. Usually only requires one hit to destroy, but certain monsters like the Kolossus may require more than one strike to take down. Towers are very important. A tower with red aura has been taken over by X.A.N.A and is being used to attack the real world, ranging from anything from filling the area with severe laughing gas to driving a bus into a nuclear power plant to blizzards. A tower with blue aura is a deactivated tower. Only AIs can deactivate towers and they can only deactivate the towers within the sector they manage.
3. Each player has a set amount of life points, when the health points drop to zero, one of two things happen. If the player is from the real world, the player will then return to the scanners. If the player is an A.I. that cannot go to the real world, then they disappear forever. The only ways for a real world player to die is if either they fall into the Digital Sea or if the deactivation codes are suspended and the player's life points were to run out. If the Super Computer that hosts Lyoko is shut down while a player is inside, the player does not die, but rather loses the ability to devirtualize, making them effectively an AI until these codes can be restored.
4. In order to often reverse the damage XANA has caused, players can do what is called a "Return to the Past". This will take players back to a set time and date depending on what is inputted into the computer. Only players registered in the computer will have recollection of the events that have occurred. However, these returns have two negatives to them. Firstly, they cannot undo death. In the event someone dies and a return to the past occurs, the individual that passed with simply die at the instant the players return to. Secondly, it increases the amount of power XANA has, though no one is exactly sure why.
5. Real world players can only enter Lyoko once every twelve hours.
