“	“One more cave mushroom salad and I would've gone off the deep end...”
	— Professor Snail

Professor Snail lives on Ginger Island and runs the Island Field Office. Initially he is trapped inside a mushroom cave by a large boulder. The player must free him by blowing up the boulder with a bomb.

After freeing him, he explains that he has been conducting a survey of the island's flora and fauna for a year. He returns to his tent on Ginger Island, where he accepts donations in exchange for Golden Walnuts.

The cave where he was trapped becomes a mushroom cave, where mushrooms can be foraged by the player.

Schedule
