A dark forest or roofed forest is a forested biome with dense leaf canopies that block sunlight, allowing hostile mobs to spawn and hide from the sun during daytime. Dark forests are one of the two biomes that woodland mansions can generate in.
Dark forests generate in areas with medium temperature and very high humidity values and are usually bordered by birch forests, but they can also border jungles and bamboo jungles. Dark forests border old growth taigas but not regular taigas.
They can generate at any type of terrain, near swamps and windswept biomes, in flatland, bordering oceans with beaches or cliffs, near plateaus and fjords, or high mountain valleys. Plateaus and mountain slopes in dark forests are replaced by the pale garden variant.
Dark forests are one of the only biomes that can never border biomes with villages.
Due to their very high humidity value, dark forests almost always have lush caves generate below them, unless they generate very far inland.
Dark forests feature a much higher density of trees compared to other forest biomes, which oftentimes blocks direct view of the sky entirely. Oak, dark oak, and sometimes birch trees generate in these biomes, with leaf litter covering the ground. Bee nests are not generated with trees. Additionally, both types of huge mushrooms generate among the trees, though the red variants are more common. Unlike regular forests, wolves do not spawn in dark forests.
Unique to dark forests are woodland mansions, enormous dungeon-like structures that rarely generate within the trees. Woodland mansions are home to the dangerous evoker and vindicator mobs and are one of the only places where said mobs spawn. Mansions contain many rooms and valuable loot.
The dark forest has a unique darker sky color and atmospheric effects with Vibrant Visuals. Sunlight is also less bright, and volumetric fog is slightly denser with stronger light shafts.
