邪恶雕像

The Witch has a 1% chance each night to fly over your farm and curse your 史莱姆屋 — turning all slimes black and halting breeding for several days. If you have 20 slimes producing 史莱姆 Balls worth 200-400 史莱姆 daily, a witch curse costs you 1,000-2,000g in lost production. The 邪恶雕像 costs 20,000g but pays for itself after just 10-20 witch events (which, statistically, will happen within 1-2 years). Plus, the statue looks delightfully creepy in your hutch.

With only a 1% chance per night, the Witch might not visit for an entire in-game year — or she might visit twice in one month. The curse is random, which makes it easy to ignore. But when it hits, all your slimes turn black and breeding halts for 1-3 days. On a 20-slime hutch producing 200-400 史莱姆 daily, that's 600-1,200 史莱姆 lost per curse event. Over multiple years, the 邪恶雕像 pays for itself many times over.

Twenty thousand gold represents: 40 小桶s worth of 杨桃 wine, 33 松露油s, 2 Deluxe Barn upgrades, or 4 铱制洒水器s. If you're still saving for tool upgrades or barn construction, prioritize those first. The 邪恶雕像 is a luxury purchase, not a necessity. Buy it when you have 50,000g+ in savings and nothing urgent to spend it on.

Reaching 60 museum donations requires significant effort. You'll need to crack 30-40 Geodes (found in Mines), dig up 15-20 artifacts (from worm spots), and possibly trade for Omni Geodes at the Desert Trader. Start donating from 日 1 — don't wait until you "need" the Rusty Key. Many of the minerals are also needed for 社区中心 bundles and crafting recipes.

Placing a 邪恶雕像 outside the 史莱姆屋 (on your farm, in a shed, near the coop) does nothing. It must be placed on a tile inside the 史莱姆屋 building to block the witch's curse. The statue has no effect on the Witch's coop visit (which gives Void Eggs — usually desirable) or any other mechanic.

One 邪恶雕像 per 史莱姆屋 is all you need. Crafting multiple statues for the same hutch has no additional effect. However, if you build multiple 史莱姆屋es (via multiplayer or modding), each hutch needs its own statue. Extra statues can be placed as creepy decorations around your farm.

While saving for the 邪恶雕像 recipe, check 科罗布斯's other offerings: the 星之果实 (20,000g, +permanent max energy) is arguably more valuable than the statue. Void Eggs (5,000g) let you hatch a Void Chicken. 铱锭s (3,000g, Fridays) save you a 骷髅洞穴 trip. Budget your Sewers shopping carefully — you can't buy everything at once.

When the Witch visits your Coop, she turns one random egg into a Void Egg. Void Eggs hatch into Void Chickens that produce Void Eggs daily — a profitable and unique animal. Many players want the Witch to visit their coop. The 邪恶雕像 does NOT affect coop visits — it only protects the 史莱姆屋. Don't confuse the two events.

Every museum donation contributes to rewards from 冈瑟: 9 donations = Dwarvish Translation Guide (lets you understand the Dwarf in the Mines), 15 donations = unique furniture, 30 donations = rare seeds, 60 donations = Rusty Key (Sewers access). Many donated minerals are also needed for 社区中心 bundles and can be duplicated in 宝石复制机s for profit (see our 宝石复制机 guide).

The Sewers contain the Mutant Bug Lair — a unique fishing spot with the Mutant Carp (one of the five legendary fish) and Radioactive Carp. The Sewers also have a Dark Shrine of Memory (resets ex-spouse memory for 30,000g), a Dark Shrine of Night Terrors (toggles monster spawns on farm), and 科罗布斯 as a shopkeeper with unique goods available every day.

Building the 史莱姆屋 (prerequisite for needing the 邪恶雕像) unlocks a passive 史莱姆 farm. With 20 slimes and incubators, you produce 200-400 史莱姆 daily — enough for endless 产油机s, 怪物香水, and 史莱姆 Egg Press operations. See our 史莱姆孵化器 guide for maximizing slime production. The hutch pays for itself through 史莱姆 sales alone.

The process of saving 20,000g forces you to develop profitable farm systems — whether that's 小桶 brewing, pig truffle farming, or crop optimization. By the time you can afford the 邪恶雕像, your farm will be generating consistent daily income. The statue purchase is proof that your economy has matured beyond subsistence farming.

Visiting 科罗布斯 regularly to shop builds friendship. At high friendship, 科罗布斯 can become your roommate (alternative to marriage — he moves into a spare cabin on your farm). As a roommate, 科罗布斯 gives unique gifts, has special dialogue, and provides a different endgame experience. He doesn't do farm chores like a spouse, but he's a fascinating character with deep lore.

科罗布斯 sells a 星之果实 for 20,000g — the same price as the 邪恶雕像 recipe. A 星之果实 permanently increases your maximum energy by 34 points. There are only 7 星之果实s in the entire game, and this is one of the easiest to obtain. Many players buy the 星之果实 before the 邪恶雕像 recipe because +energy benefits everything you do. Budget for both — they're the two best 20,000g purchases in the Sewers.
