This content is available only after activating the Shadow Rift

“An annoying little creep that just wants to be held by you. Stomp it out quickly, before it does more creeping.”

The Mimicreep is a mob exclusive to Don't Starve Together. It spawns at night time in Caves when a Shadow Rift is open. Mimicreeps will look for items dropped on the ground and try to mimic them. Items that can be mimicked are equippable items that can be put inside the inventory, but they cannot be a Heavy Item or a mob.

If a player tries to use the mimicked item or examines it inside their inventory, it will reveal itself and run away, draining 10 Sanity. Revealed Mimicreep cannot be attacked but players can step on it to kill it, dropping 1 Nightmare Fuel and draining 10 Sanity.

Haunting mimicked items with Ghost Characters or Abigail will reveal them.

Tips

• Some items mimicked by Mimicreep can be used once before it reveals itself. For example, a mimicked Fire Staff can be used once before it is revealed.

Trivia

• The Mimicreep was introduced in the Depths of Duplicity update.
• Before Ancient Echoes update, mimicked Construction Amulets can be used once before being revealed. However, this has been removed.
