Tully had the area drenched in the weed killer due to an experiment with raw science and cordyceps that went very wrong and broke out, forcing Dr. Exploring the Haze Lab reveals that Dr.

These insects have Mind-Control Eyes and their bodies are grotesquely covered in fungal growths. Body Horror: In the Haze section of the yard, you can find and fight insects that are infected with some sort of parasitic fungus, likely based on cordyceps.Blocking Stops All Damage: Applies when blocking with a shield, which prevents you from being damaged by almost any attack, but you'll take a stamina penalty if it isn't a perfect block.They're actually normal sized creepy crawlies, but you've been shrunk down to their level so they appear huge to you. Big Creepy-Crawlies: Ants, weevils, mites, aphids, and ladybugs wander around the backyard.Benevolent Architecture: Several backyard tools, twigs, leaves and branches are deliberately placed in areas to keep the player from getting stuck in crevices they can't otherwise get back out of, most notably in the Haze area, which features dozens of steep chasms that are otherwise insurmountable from within, if not for some conveniently-placed rock piles and twig branches.
