The world of Heartopia is abundant with natural resources such as fruits, vegetables, flowers, trees, ores, and so much more. Mushrooms are one such category all to themselves, and can be useful for a number of purposes – from cooking stamina-boosting recipes to trading with neighbours as part of daily resident requests.
There are four kinds of mushrooms to harvest in Heartopia, and each of them spawns in a specific location. Most of the time, any mushroom will do, but if you’re eager to complete your collections then you’ll want to make sure you can lay your hands on all the different types. Read on for how to find all the different mushrooms in Heartopia.
Heartopia mushroom locations
You might already have guessed that there’s a connection between Heartopia’s four map regions and the four types of mushrooms you can harvest. Sure enough, each region in Heartopia has a native type of mushroom that you won’t find anywhere else.
Penny Bun Mushrooms only grow in the Forest region, where they are mostly found at the base of pine trees and next to fallen logs.
Oyster Mushrooms only grow in the Onsen Mountain region, where they can usually be found at the foot of rock formations.
Shiitake Mushrooms only grow in the Fishing Village region, where they are mostly found at the base of oak trees, telephone poles, and wooden fences.
Button Mushrooms only grow in the Flower Field region, where they are mostly found beside shrubs and fences.
For most purposes in Heartopia, mushrooms are interchangeable – for example, when a daily resident request calls for you to collect “X” number of mushrooms, it won’t matter what specific type(s) they are.
However, collecting different types of mushrooms does have its advantages. Not only does it add more entries to your general catalogue — which you’ll be rewarded for filling out — but cooking dishes such as Grilled Mushrooms or Mushroom Pie with four mushrooms of the same type will unlock a secret recipe variant.
