If you are looking for a list of items, please see Category:Items

Items.DAT is an encoded file that can be found in the games resources. It is encoded using ECB mode BLOWFISH-Compat with the code "mothking".

The file contains information about all items, including ones not added or not implemented in the game. In Xbox/PS4/Mobile versions, the item sprites are totally different than the PC/Mac versions (ex. Upgraded tools).

This page is mainly for reference and to see all (un)implemented items.

Outdated File

The included file is from an outdated version of the game and some items may have been changed or removed.

The new file format no longer uses the included encryption noted above; it instead checks the number of characters in the file to determine validity. If you want to edit items.dat you need to keep the length (in characters) the same as the unedited version or it will not work.

File format

  • Illegal: Pretty obvious. 1 for illegal.
