史莱姆

史莱姆（Slimes）是游戏中最常见的敌人。玩家会面对各种不同的史莱姆，每一种都有不同的HP和攻击。基本上所有的史莱姆都遵循史莱姆AI，通过向玩家跳跃以伤害玩家（除了彩虹蜗牛和飞行史莱姆）。当一只史莱姆准备起跳时，它会以很快的速度上下震动。史莱姆会在水中漂浮。

白天时的地表史莱姆都是中立的，除非玩家主动攻击，不会去尝试攻击玩家，但仍然能造成接触伤害。夜晚的地表史莱姆具有攻击性。在地下生成的史莱姆永远具有攻击性。绿色，蓝色，红色，紫色和黄色史莱姆通常会在地表附近生成；母体史莱姆，史莱姆幼崽和黑色史莱姆只在地下生成。小粉可能会在任何地方出现，虽然几率很小。

大部分的史莱姆会掉落1-2个凝胶，但有一些特例：

凝胶是一种很重要的合成材料。它可以合成火把，并在游戏的所有阶段都有用途。

Variants

Gelatin World Tour is the achievement you earn for defeating every type of slime there is (Template:Pc icon only).

Slimer is the achievement you earn for defeating every type of slime (Template:Console icon Template:Mobile icon only).

Coin drop rates will vary.
Nearly all Slimes can drop the Slime Staff upon death, however it's extremely rare (with a drop rate at 0.01%).
Smaller Slimes may clip through walls and one block holes. Make your house carefully or else Slimes may be able to get in.
Farming Slimes with a Slime Statue can produce an infinite amount of Gel, which can be helpful for the Flamethrower.

On the PC version, naturally spawned slimes that have the same shape as a Blue Slime have a 1/20 chance of carrying a bonus item.

Slimes spawned from statues can never carry a bonus drop, and Dungeon Slimes will always have a Golden Key as a bonus drop.

¹When in single player mode, this item will be replaced by Recall Potion.

Slimes are hinted to be made of an acidic digestive substance by the Nurse in her dialogue: "You look half digested. Have you been chasing slimes again?"
The Royal Gel accessory (dropped by King Slime in Expert Mode) turns almost all slimes passive.
