Revision as of 14:15, 9 October 2015
The Inexplicable Door (also known as the 8-Bit Realm) is found in the The Distant Woods. The pixellated monsters here all have 15 HP and don't drop any meat, though they are rich in pixels; each can drop up to three of them. Pixels can be brought to the crackpot mystic for him to craft with. With which for him to craft.
A primary stat of 20 is suggested. If your main stat isn't high enough, you'll see the following message:
- You try to open the inexplicable door, but can't seem to muster up the strength and/or wisdom and/or panache to do so.
You wander off in search of more appropriate things to do.
(It is recommended that you have at least 20 <mainstat> to adventure here.)
When attempting to visit with the continuum transfunctioner unequipped (via Last Adventure):
- You shouldn't be here.

References
- The monsters here all originate from games (more specifically, Super Mario Bros. and The Legend of Zelda) for the 8-bit video game console, the NES.
- The Inexplicable Door's name itself refers to earlier (mostly 8-bit) games that had a door outdoors that you had to enter to complete the level. These doors weren't attached to any building, and were thus inexplicable.
- The fact that you encounter Buzzy Beetles instead of Goombas after you ascend is a reference to the fact that, after beating Super Mario Brothers, you play a harder set of stages where all the goombas turn into buzzy beetles.
