huge fan of this game. however three creatures have never shown up for me so i was wondering if it was a bug or not
Sorry I missed this comment, Im glad you like it! There are actually 3 hidden monsters with special secret requirements to show up! 2 dont have hints in game but have been talked about on here and discord. In order of easiest to hardest.
1. Check shops for an item you don't see anywhere else. It will hint to you what to do.
2. Requires a specific tier 3 village structure. You need to do something you wouldnt normally do. It is tangentially related to cold. You will know if you did it right as soon you go to select your team for a new run.
3. Requires a bird egg from egg sense. you need to carry it with you to a specific non-random event. It will be tangentially related to warmth. It will hatch automatically when you do the right thing.
Theyre kinda convoluted so feel free to ask for more info or exact solutions.
