==The Mushroom Floor==

On the first of each [[Season]], a random floor between 80 and 120 is chosen to have an increased chance of spawning a large number of [[Red Mushroom|red]] and [[Purple Mushroom|purple]] mushrooms. This floor decreases in number by one each day until reaching floor 80 or until a change of season. The day after this happens, another random floor is chosen.

Sometimes a floor in the lower section of the mine (levels 81-119) will have greatly increased spawns of [[Red Mushroom|red]] and [[Purple Mushroom|purple]] mushrooms. These floors will also notably have a variety of colored lanterns which usually includes at least one green lantern. Mushrooms will continue to respawn on that floor throughout the same game day (even if the player quits and restarts,) and so repeated trips can be made to collect a large number of mushrooms.

At least one wall lantern on the mushroom floor will glow green instead of the normal yellow/white/red color.

Because of the way the game chooses such floors, the mushroom floor will "move up" one level each day; for example, if level 94 is a mushroom floor on Spring 5, then level 93 will be a mushroom floor on Spring 6. A player could thus track the mushroom floor and only choose to exploit it when the level can be reached quickly such as when it is one floor below an elevator. Note however, that no mushrooms will spawn on an elevator level itself (floors ending in 0 or 5) or if the level is infested (see previous section.) Additionally, the mushroom floor is neither unique nor guaranteed -- there may be multiple active mushroom floors or no such floors at all on a given day, and that situation may persist for several days or weeks.

 

The mushroom floor has no visible effect on floors ending in 0 or 5, or on levels chosen to be infested (see previous section). 

 

Once a mushroom floor has been identified, a player can restart the day and proceed immediately to that floor to forage a large number of mushrooms.  Leaving the floor and returning the same day will respawn a large number of mushrooms on that floor.  The process can be repeated to amass a large number of mushrooms in a single day.  The next day, the floor will move up one (''e.g.'', from floor 118 to 117, or from 94 to 93), and can potentially be reached quickly.

 

Note: Some players have reported finding more than one mushroom floor on a single day (''e.g.'', on floors 101 and 111).  Other players report that they cannot find a mushroom floor after searching all floors from 80 to 120 for several days in a row.  This may happen when the mushroom floor is the same as an infested floor, as both will move up one each day.
