Trivia

The Mushroom Desert is the location with the fifth most NPCs, after the Hub, Crimson Isle, Dwarven Mines, and the Moonglade Marsh.
The Mushroom Desert and The Barn are in the same server. This means the player can travel between the islands without using Launch Pads through items like the Grappling Hook and Aspect of the End.
On the original Mushroom Desert island, there was a launch pad that said "Coming later this year!" located at 246, 99, -412.
