Dead Town
From Jak and Daxter Wiki
Dead Town was a district in the northeast corner of Haven City. It was built partially on the site of Sandover Village, but after Metal Head broke through the city wall in this section Baron Praxis sealed the entire area off from the rest of the city by building a new city wall leaving all the soldiers and civilians still in the area to die. By the time Jak II starts the area is in ruins and consists mainly of decaying buildings and harmful mud. It is unknown where this mud came from, but could possibly be polluted water from the sea, broken down decay, and possibly waste from the rest off the city. It was inhabited by numerous creatures, including Metal Heads.

[edit] History
[edit] Destruction and aftermath
The section was destroyed under a battle where Metal Heads broke through the City Walls and moved towards the sacred site. In retaliation, Baron Praxis built a new barrier in order to seal off the area, leaving all the civilians still in the area behind to die. The Shadow stayed behind in his hut and through unknown means managed to stop the assault.
[edit] Mission to steal the Baron's banner
Upon first meeting Torn, Jak and Daxter got a mission to steal Baron Praxis' banner from the top of the ruined temple in Dead Town in order to prove themselves worthy to join the underground. After some initital difficulties, including glubs, Znorkle Tooth and crumbling platforms, they managed to retrieve the banner and ruin the tower in the same process.
[edit] Creature activity
When Torn got reports of creatures moving towards the sacred site, he sent Jak and Daxter on a mission to stop the creatures. For the mission, they got a Vulcan Fury upgrade to their gun. After defeating the many metal heads, they arrived at the sacred site. To their surprise, the sacred site was Samos' hut, which they remembered from 300 years ago before they arrived in Haven City by time travel.
[edit] Retrieving the life seed
Jak and Daxter were once more sent to Dead Town by Samos in order to retrieve the Life Seed, which was needed for the younger Samos so he could become more "sagely" and ask the plants in Haven Forest vital questions about their future. They used the Titan Suit to get to Samos' hut, where they found the life seed.
[edit] Jak 3
Although Inaccesable due to the construction of New Haven, Dead Town is visible from the War Factory unchanged.
[edit] Jak X
It is unseen although the area was presumably built over during the reconstruction and expansion of Haven City
