Mushroom Castle Quest Guide
| Level | 30 or higher |
|---|---|
| Start | Head Security Officer in Mushroom Forest Field, the first map of the Mushroom Castle |
| Getting there | A portal in An Empty House (a hidden map near Henesys) leads to Mushroom Forest Field |
| Quests | About 25, one long chain with a few branches |
| Repeat | Once per character each |
The Mushroom Castle quests are the story of King Pepe's castle, told from the forest outside to the Wedding Hall at the top. They form one long chain at level 30. The reports were about the chain stalling: the visit step of Exploring Mushroom Forest (1) never ticked, the Secretary's barrier walk did not finish the quest, and the map chain seemed to end at East Castle Tower.
The maps, in order
Each map links to the next, left to right. Mushroom Forest Field leads to Secluded Mushroom Forest, Isolated Mushroom Forest and Deep Inside Mushroom Forest. The barrier at the end of Deep Inside Mushroom Forest leads to Split Road of Destiny, then Castle Wall Edge, Outer Castle Wall, Skyscraper 1 and 2, West Castle Tower, Skyscraper 3, 4 and 5, Central Castle Tower, Skyscraper 6, East Castle Tower, Entrance to Wedding Hall, The Last Castle Tower, and finally the Wedding Hall. The chain continues past East Castle Tower: the way on is the portal from East Castle Tower to the Entrance to Wedding Hall.

Common problems
- "Exploring Mushroom Forest (1) will not complete. The second step says go to the barrier, but the portal is already open."
- Fixed. Reaching the barrier map, Deep Inside Mushroom Forest, now marks the visit done. Walk there, then go back to the Secretary of Domestic Affairs to hand it in.
- "The map chain ends at East Castle Tower."
- Fixed. The portal onward was being dropped. Keep going right: East Castle Tower leads to the Entrance to Wedding Hall.
- "A quest is not offered after the first spore quest."
- The chain is ordered strictly. Check that you finished the step before it.
