*THIS ARTICLE MAY CONTAIN SPOILERS ABOUT THE ORIGINAL DINK DINK SMALLWOOD AND/OR IT'S D-MODS!*
The Darklands is an area in the end of the original game. It's where Seth is located (in the south-east).
Enemies include powerful versions of the Pillbug, Bonca, Slayer, and Dragon; brambles that will hurt Dink on contact; and departed spirits having the appearance of human girls. Some spirits merely display creepy messages on the screen and are otherwise harmless, while others have a taste for blood and will immediately rush at Dink. There is also a pig that has very high health, gives a large amount of experience, and will not respawn.
By travelling around the Darklands in a loop, it is possible to gain levels quite quickly, as the first monsters are likely to respawn by the time the loop is completed, and there is a well just outside the Darklands to recover health.
