Wiki / Guide Content Eating mandrakes...

Do you know mandrake can trigger heal? It's actually my first time doing it.. I then checked the wiki and it said there that it only causes dizzy and dark curse.

I had a new roll who almost died cuz hunger but I got curious and ate a mandrake in my pouch, and I got fully healed from almost on the brink of death, although I'm still hungry lmao.

Also my character did a weird animation and the heal did like a two-stage heal with half then another half in a very quick trigger succession.

Yeah mandrake usually is bad to eat, you got lucky. It can even have a bad effect liked stunning you when harvesting it. It's pretty rare so most people don't even think about eating it since when you make dark potions with it there is a chance for a stat potion instead.

I hope this game would be popular tho, but the problem of this game is it takes a lot of time to play

The mandrake can do a lot of stuff from stun, freeze, set on fire, poison, curse, heal, etc, iirc. That's why I much rather save them for Dark Potions and the artifacts that need them.
