Beyond the central island lie Biome Islands, massive structures that generate thousands of blocks away. Each biome features unique flora, fauna, and structures.

A dark, overgrown biome filled with Spooky Logs and Thorny Bushes. It is home to the Louse and Infested Bats. Players can find Silverfish Dungeons here, which contain valuable loot and the Infestation Remedy.
Burning Mountains
A volcanic landscape featuring lava flows and Igneous Rock. This biome is inhabited by Fire Fiends and contains Resource Pits—deep shafts filled with rare ores like Sphalerite and Endium.
