Unique Hazard(s) | Poison Spores Fungus, Sticky Goo |
“ | We're almost sorry to send employees in here, but the rewards are too great to ignore. So therefore: Welcome to the Fungus Bogs! A truly awful region, built mostly from slime, mold, stinging insects, fungus, stinking mud, and corrosive lichen. | „ |
~ Ingame description |
Fungus Bogs is one of the biomes of Hoxxes IV. It is made up of large caverns filled with different kinds of Xenofungi, which range in size from small to extremely large. Larger Xenofungi are big enough to be used as platforms. The dirt making up the caves is durable, taking two hits for it to give way.

Hazards[edit | edit source]
The biome-specific hazards for Fungus Bogs are Poison Spores Fungus, medium-sized mushrooms that release poisonous vapors, damaging dwarves who get too close, and Sticky Goo, a deep-green bubbly goo which can cover large areas of the floor, dramatically slowing movement of any Dwarf or Glyphid walking across it.
Similar to other biomes, Fungus Bogs has Explosive Plants, which explode violently when sufficiently damaged. The explosions are able to trigger other nearby explosive plants, which may then cause a deadly chain-reaction.
Enemies[edit | edit source]
Most Glyphids can be encountered in Fungus Bogs, including Spitball Infectors, Cave Leeches, and Glyphid Dreadnoughts.

Jadiz, with Croppa being abundant and Jadiz being scarce.
