Maxwell's Door is a Structure that always appears in a vanilla or Reign of Giants world. It is located in a Set Piece on the Surface, consisting of a circle of Forest Turf, filled with Evergreens and Evil Flowers. It resembles the machine that Maxwell tricked Wilson into building, as seen in the Forgotten Knowledge animated short, and is a portal resembling Maxwell's face when opened. The interior of the door shows a red void filled with shadowy lines. A Divining Rod can be used to help locate it.

The Door serves as an entryway to Adventure Mode. Upon interacting with it, the player will be warned of the contents of Adventure Mode and be asked if they are sure they want to proceed. If they choose to use the Door, a pair of Shadow Hands will grab the player and pull them into the ground, causing the player to wake up in Chapter 1 of Adventure Mode. The player cannot take any items or prototyped recipes (with the exception of character-specific items such as Willow's Lighter, Abigail's Flower, or Lucy) with them, but their stats will be fully restored. If the player dies in Adventure Mode, they will awaken ouside the Door with their original stats, inventory, and prototyped recipes, as if they never went through the Door.
