Jack Mushroom are edible fungi found throughout the Peninsula.

Gameplay[]

They can be eaten directly to restore a small amount of hunger and energy, or collected with the pouch. Like berries, collected mushrooms do not spoil and can be eaten later, used for crafting, or planted in a garden. The player can only grow mushrooms in caves; however, they do not spawn there naturally and must be brought in from outside. As of v0.66, they cannot be grown in wall planters.

Using pouch, you can collect up to 10 Jack Mushrooms.

Trivia[]

  • Poisonous mushrooms in the game used to make the player hallucinate when consumed, but this was later removed.
  • The Jack-o-Lantern mushroom (Omphalotus olearius) is poisonous but not hallucinogenic.
  • As in reality, the (edible) chantarelles and (poisonous) jack-o-lantern mushrooms appear similar and may be confused.
  • In reality, the Jack-o-Lantern mushroom is bioluminescent, emitting a faint green glow visible at night.

v0.69 You can now poison most weapons by combining them with poison berries, or poison mushrooms.
v0.69 It is now possible to cook a stew with the cooking pot ! After adding the pot filled with water on a fire, add a choice of 20 ingredients (8 meats, 6 mushrooms, 4 herbs and 1 berry and oysters), it will start a 30s cooking period after which stew will be ready to eat, providing hydration, fullness and other benefits based on recipe.
