Notes[]

  • Although the Crimson is considered a counterpart to the Corruption, using Worm Food in the Crimson will not do anything. The Bloody Spine is required for the boss that spawns there, which is the Brain of Cthulhu.
    • It is however still possible to summon the Eater of Worlds in a world that spawned with Crimson by artificially creating a Corruption biome (with at least 300 \ 200 Corruption blocks), and then using the Worm Food within it.
  • In the old Mobile Versions, there was a bug where consuming the Worm Food while the Eater of Worlds is alive will inflict 9000 damage to the player, killing them regardless.
