Mushrooms (Shrooms) can be found throughout The Tower of Barbs. They can have various effects such as Poison, Sleep, Restore Health, and more. Take note that some mushroom combinations can not be used, such as Stingshroom and Crushroom (one buff would replace the other). Whichever effect they may have, they always restore a small amount of HP (10 HP the Parasol Shrooms, the other 20 HP if raw and 30 HP if cooked, in addition to any other effect, healing included, with some exceptions, like the Pumpkinshrooms which restore more) and award XP when eaten. Normal mushrooms give +10 XP when eaten raw and +20 XP if cooked (with some exceptions, like the Ricebowl Shroom that gives 10 XP either if raw or cooked) which, golden mushrooms and season specific mushrooms (Parasol, Pumpkinshroom and Snowcap) give +100 XP and skillshrooms give +500 XP. The Eggshrooms are XP specific shrooms and give +400 XP, +3,000 XP and +30,000 XP depending on their quality (bronze, silver or gold). All the shrooms, raw, cooked or golden, can be sold for 10 Kill Coin at Chokufunsha, the only exception are the Parasol, which are intended to be sold and provide respectively 1,000 5,000 and 50,000 Kill Coins for the bronze, silver and golden ones.
Mushrooms can be eaten immediately or stored in the Death Bag. Certain mushrooms can be thrown at enemies to unleash their effects (Boomshroom causing an explosion, Doomshroom a poisonous cloud, etc.).
Many mushrooms can stack their abilities when consuming multiple of the same species. This happens mostly with mushrooms that have a time limitations causing the time limit to be increased with the consumption of each new copy.
*Note: certain mushrooms DO NOT stack. Example: "Lifeshroom" restores 25% but if you eat two, they will not stack to 50%.
Normal Mushrooms can be grilled to enhance their properties. Grilling can be done at various fires in the tower, including the brazier next to the Mushroom Club in the Waiting Room. To grill mushrooms, enter throw mode while near a fire. When close enough to the fire, the "throw" icon will change into a "grill" icon. Pressing X will make the fighter step forward and hold out the item for grilling.
*Note: Distance from the flame is important, and some fires in the tower have have a smaller 'sweet spot' than others. Standing too close will set the fighter on fire, while too far will result in a failure to grill the item. Successive grilling may shift the fighter slightly, moving them closer to the flame or further away (potentially changing the Grill option back to Throw). While grilling, the outstretched item can be moved allowing for easier access to "sweet spots" in the fire.
