Biomes

The World of Noita is separated into several Biomes which, at the center of the world can be grouped into several areas in rough succession of depth. At the end of each biome in the Main Path, there will be a Holy Mountain.

Biome Modifiers may be applied to most of the main biomes at random, and some biomes like the Desert and Snowy Wasteland have fixed modifiers, or may be generated with a specific modifier by default unless another modifier replaces it.

Secret Areas

The existence of these areas is generally considered a secret, or they are involved in hidden events. Tread with care.

Trivia

Many parts of the map are separated by a thick layer of dense and very dense rock making it hard to get through, however methods such as using the black hole spell or Chaotic Polymorphine and using a worm transformation can make tunneling easier.

Glyphs can be found scattered throughout the world map much of which translate into many different pieces of lore. See this video for details.

The normal world is 35,840 pixels wide.
