???

Thanks, Andrew.

???, referred to as Inv or Enot by the community, is a secret, non-canon accessed by solving the riddle in the #Enot Riddle thread on the Rain World Discord. They begin the game in. They feature a variety of changes which make the game incredibly difficult to play, such as far more enemy spawns like and, shelter failures every cycle, and reworked regions with unique gimmicks. Main 4 riddles needed to solve the Inv mystery "Chant His name upon 7 or 8 inscribed bricks of a pillar" "His name can be found in the door of the desert" "It does not matter whenever the door is opened, closed or passed through. The lock is the key and the key is the means." "Do as you have done before, give it a name"

For the main Slugcats page, see Slugcat.

Food
12 food pips are required to hibernate, and none can be stored for the next cycle.

Opening
???'s opening has them crouched down, sheltering from pre-cycle rain in, with a reskinned at their side.

Food: 

Karma: 

Area: (Memory Crypts)

General Changes

 * ??? spawns with a reskinned after AndrewFM's profile picture, the "eggzero", every cycle.
 * Notably, this does not replace any existing Singularity Bombs, meaning that if one is not used when the player hibernates, they will have two.
 * Some sound effects are changed, notably sounds where ??? is hurt, being replaced with loud, human-like grunts. The "game over" sound effect is replaced with AndrewFM saying either "game over, gamer", "good night, gamer", or "rest in peace, gamer".
 * An Applebread voice clip plays after waiting on the main menu for a short period.
 * Much of the non in-game music is altered. Specifically, this occurs on the main menu, all tracks played in Arena mode, and the Dating Sim. The music in these sections is dynamically slowed down.
 * All that spawn are reskinned with the level editor Big Head displayed on their faces. These Slugpups behave as normal except on death, where they generate an explosion similar to that of a Singularity Bomb.
 * An additional Singularity Bomb is spawned after the effect finishes.
 * ??? can eat from slain creatures for half their normal food pips, like the.
 * ??? can maul enemies by holding grab/eat while holding them, like the.
 * However, ??? does not have a method to reliably stun creatures in order to maul them, so the ability is fairly niche.

World Changes

 * Shelter failures occur 100% of the time, even on cycle 0.
 * This gives a tremendously long time between cycles that can be taken advantage of.
 * Most regions accessible to any has had major changes to make them harder, sillier, more unfair, or any combination of the three.
 * Many of these regions have had their names changed as well.
 * Many instances of graffiti that are normally found around the world have been replaced with different arts, some being previously unused, and some completely new.

Region Specific Changes

 * Snails spawn in randomly, and create lethal explosions rather than their typical shockwaves.
 * Large quantities of  lurk the area.
 * Surprisingly, remain unchanged.


 * Whenever ??? leaves a pipe, a spawns.
 * ??? becomes exhausted after almost any action, and unlike the, energy cannot be regained by standing still. This means that Yeeks are almost essential for movement.
 * This does not apply to certain crucial areas such as shelters.


 * Renamed to "Nachos Will Never Be The Same".
 * Water is now orange and can kill ???.
 * Along with the 100% shelter failure chance, this means ??? will likely die upon waking up in a shelter, soft-locking them in all the shelters except the two close to the Industrial Complex gate.
 * The foreground is much darker, while the background has a bright orange filter placed over it.


 * Relatively unchanged aside from the global increase in powerful enemy spawning.
 * The Memory Crypts are much darker than usual.


 * Renamed to "TOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOBS".
 * A pulsing rainbow overlay is placed over the foreground and background.


 * Water is flipped upside-down, causing controls in water to be reversed and NPC AI to break.

 * Many objects that would normally be found in Five Pebbles can be found.
 * herself is unconscious, similarly to how the finds her in their campaign.
 * This implies that Moon's collapse was somewhat recent.


 * Has had many changes to it to make it similar to the Unfortunate Development subregion of.
 * Proto Long Legs can be found on many surfaces.
 * Gravity changes on and at the sections near the Communication Array
 * If the player is in a room affected by the gravity disruptor and reaches the edge of a screen, they are teleported to the other side of the room, meaning the player cannot float off away infinitely.
 * This also allows the player to skip certain obstacles by teleporting to the other side of the screen.
 * Many objects from Five Pebbles have been placed around the region.
 * Communication Array
 * Has a moderate amount of.
 * Proto Long Legs are more prevalent in this subregion.
 * At the apex, you can find the gravity disruptor that is causing the change in gravity.


 * is far more plentiful. Almost every room has at least one new patch of it, and existing Worm Grass is bigger and more plentiful.


 * Electric zones, similar to the zappers inside of Five Pebbles (Recursive Transform Array), can be found scattered around the region, killing ??? and non-Rot creatures on contact. Several platforms and walls are affected.
 * Proto Long Legs are found in incredibly high quantities.
 * In a rare act of mercy, food in the form of is very plentiful, as well as  and.
 * The Leg
 * Renamed to "Tower of Gains".
 * Underhang
 * Renamed to "Uberhang".
 * The Wall
 * Made impossible to climb up without a large amount of to stick into walls by Proto Long Legs.
 * It is recommended that you bring a Grapple Worm to traverse this section.


 * All gravity effects have been disabled in most rooms.
 * Large amounts of yellow water as well as are found wherever there isn't gravity, allowing ??? to progress without anti-gravity.
 * Unfortunate Development
 * Water quickly fills and empties in some rooms, simulating the typical alternation of gravity found in the subregion.
 * Later parts of the subregion have the water removed in favor of the normal alternating gravity effects.
 * Memory Conflux
 * In some rooms, anti-gravity is present as normal in Five Pebbles.
 * General Systems Bus
 * Water is completely removed from the subregion, making it almost identical to the General Systems Bus found in most other campaigns.

 * A light source is highly recommended to traverse this area.
 * Depths
 * Uniquely, has very few changes.

While technically being accessible to ???, has received no changes.

Dating Sim
''This section covers stuff other than the dialogue for this section of the game. To see the dialogue, go to Dating Sim/Dialogue.''

If the player manages to ascend with ???, after the final cutscene fades out, they are met with a Dating Simulator. It presents several different options below some descriptive text.

??? themselves is shown on the left, having several different unique sprites.

All of the endings involve a different from MSC.


 * If you go north, ??? meets.
 * If you go east, ??? meets and.
 * If you go west, ??? meets.
 * If you go south, ??? meets.

Trivia

 * ??? has a lot of different names from the community and otherwise.
 * Enot is what they're generally referred to as by the creators of ???.
 * Inv is what they're called in the code.
 * Sofanthiel is a reference to a meme in the MSC Discord, as well as the origins of ???.
 * Paincat is what they're called on the Speedrun.com leaderboard, coined by speedrunner ICED.
 * ???'s colors, as well as much of their in-game art, are derived from art of the with their colors inverted.
 * Although not canon, it is thought that ???'s campaign could have a place after, and before with the state that  is in.
 * Datamining supports this - the More Slugcats timeline is explicitly given within the code of the game, with this placement confirmed.
 * One thing against this is that can spawn, however this may just be Andrew using Hunter Long Legs due to their massive health pool, and therefore difficulty, to make this campaign even worse than it already is.
 * Additionally, with the amount of seen in The Exterior also implies that the campaign takes place near/after, but once again, this campaign is meant to be unfair, not sensible
 * ??? currently cannot be selected as a character for anything but their single-player campaign. Once ??? Mode is triggered, however, spawned in Arena Mode have relevant changes.
