Monsters

They wait under the blocks, ready to rise when you dig them free. Released monsters march on your torches, buildings and campfire. Your weapon's tier must match the monster's tier to hurt it.

	Monster	HP	Damage	Speed	Weapon needed	Loot	Where
	Slime	3	1/s	1.1	Fists or better	2× Slime Gel	Everywhere; the first monster you meet
	Skeleton	6	2/s	1.5	Stone Sword	3× Bone	Far from camp on the surface; common underground
	Demon	12	3/s	1.3	Iron Sword	1× Demon Horn, 3× Gold	The far surface at night; the deep underground
	Spider	10	2/s	1.8	Stone Sword	6× Fiber	Depth 2 and below
	Zombie	4	1/s	0.9	Fists or better	1× Bone, 2× Cloth	Night swarms from the very first night; they never come alone
	Slime Monster	9	2/s	0.8	Stone Sword	5× Slime Gel	Mid-surface and the depths; splits into Slimes when slain
	Ghost	4	3/s	1.2	Stone Sword	2× Ectoplasm	Born in the unexplored fog at night; drifts through everything; only vulnerable on your lit ground; gone by dawn

Night spawning

In the dark (night on the surface, always underground), monsters appear on revealed but unlit ground roughly every 5 seconds, up to 6 at once, plus 2 per depth level. Light denies spawns: torches, the campfire and buildings that glow all keep the dark honest.
