Forest Realm
Forest Realm is where every Time Heroes account starts. Entry is free, there is no level requirement, and an egg here costs 150 coins, the cheapest price in the game. The tutorial is built on top of this world, so the four materials the first recipes ask for, copper, coal, iron and crude oil, all come out of the rocks you are already breaking.
Forest Essence is the signature drop, and it is the only world essence in the Uncommon band. Every essence after this one sits a step higher, which is the first sign that the worlds are not reskins of each other. Opening Magic Hollow costs level 20, 100,000 coins and the Elderoot fight at the exit, so what you collect here is what arms you for leaving here.
What drops here
| Material | Chance per rock | What it is |
|---|---|---|
| Copper Ore | 8.0% | Raw unrefined copper, waiting to be smelted. |
| Coal | 6.7% | Combustible black rock used for basic smelting operations and low-tier fuel refinement. |
| Iron Ore | 4.4% | Raw unrefined iron, waiting to be smelted. |
| Crude Oil | 3.8% | Thick, unrefined petroleum liquid used directly in chemical synthetics. |
| Forest Essence | 2.5% | The pure essence of the Forest Realm |
These are chances per rock you break, not shares of one whole, so they do not add up to 100 percent. Anything not listed is plain rock.

The creatures of this world

|---|---|
| Nutfern | Common |
| Thornbunny | Uncommon |
| Moro | Rare |
| Oakhorn | Epic |
| Brambor | Legendary |
| Rootsage | Mythical |
| BoaBark | Secret |
Nutfern Common
A forgetful forest friend who hides snacks in its leaf-tail. Apologizes to everything, even the wind.
Thornbunny Uncommon
Keeps bumping into things with its thorns and acts like it was intentional. Once wore a sock as a cape.
Moro Rare
Practices its war face in puddles and writes commendations to important leaves. Calls falling 'tactical descents.'
Oakhorn Epic
Delivers dramatic speeches to woodpeckers about forest etiquette. Its presence restores the forest's balance.
Brambor Legendary
Loves grand entrances and thorny hugs. When danger appears, the jokes stop and the thicket moves.
Rootsage Mythical
Claims to have outstared a waterfall for nine years. Speaks in confusing metaphors and vanishes mid-sentence.
Boabark Secret
Ancient guardian whose hum makes flowers bloom or faint. Meeting it makes the world feel heavier and safer.
What you are actually doing here
Nutfern, the Common of this world, is usually the first pet anyone hatches, and BoaBark, its Secret, is the first genuinely rare thing most players chase. Because damage multiplies by five for every world past this one, nothing hatched in Forest Realm stays useful for long. Treat it as the world that teaches the loop rather than the world you build on.
Elderoot, and why a boss matters
Elderoot holds the exit at level 20 on a 90 second timer, and beating it pays 150 Forest Essence and five loot boxes. Every world past the first is gated on the previous world's boss, because the fight is what hands over the navigation data. A larger coin balance will not move you forward on its own.
