So, you’ve conquered an island, defeated the baddies, and now you want to bring it back to life. The game says, "Hey, you need a decomposer." You say, "What on earth is that?" Here’s a simple guide to the Decomposer in Aloft.

What Is a Decomposer?

A decomposer is basically nature’s trash recycler. In Aloft, that means mushrooms or worms. They break down organic material to nourish the soil. Think of them as the unsung heroes of gardening.

How to Get a Decomposer:

  • Look for Red Fungus (Mushrooms)

    • Wander around and find red mushrooms chilling at the base of trees.

    • Pick them up like the diligent forager you are.

  • Turn Mushrooms Into Seeds (Optional)

    • If you want to spread the fungus love, toss the red mushrooms into a grinder. Voila—spores!

    • Plant these bad boys at the base of adult trees, and they’ll do the decomposing magic.

  • Find Worms

    • Worms are like the overachievers of decomposers. They not only nourish the soil but also boost the island’s insect diversity. Fancy!

    • To find worms, search islands with rich biodiversity or areas where animals hang out. No, you can’t grind them into seeds—don’t even try.

Bonus Tip: Blue Beetles

These little critters can help too, but they need a proper setup. If you’ve got them, make sure they’re in an environment they can thrive in, like a habitat with plenty of plant life.

Final Blurb

Getting a decomposer is easy once you know what to do. Mushrooms or worms—pick your decomposing champion. Plant them, let them work their magic, and your island will be lush and ship-worthy in no time. Now go forth and recycle nature, because even the sky needs compost.
