Features

Birch Forest is an open, looping field populated by many tall birch trees. It's set against a black panorama with a scrolling green splatter. Heading away from the entrance, a pair of statues, the trees become more sparse. In some areas, the world appears completely devoid of trees save for some small patches.

Northeast of the entrance is a grey sign with a neutral expression, which leads to Sign World.

South of the entrance and slightly left, there's a standard red vending machine and bench. East from the vending machine is a pair of statues, and going through them leads to Oriental Lake. Heading slightly west of the vending machine, Urotsuki will encounter a patch of trees. Heading up into the center of them reveals a single birch tree with an apple. Interacting with it causes the apple to wobble, granting Urotsuki the Red Riding Hood effect if it has not been obtained.

South of the vending machine is an empty picture frame, which will send you to a dark looping area with numerous chasers. The chasers are immune to Invisible and Crossing. There is nothing else in the area besides paintings with smiling faces on them. Getting caught sends you to the Zalgo event in the Magnet Room, and thus works as a one-way connection.

In the eleventh column to the left of the initial starting position, a dim white portrait can be found. Interacting with the portrait forces Urotsuki awake and changes the frame to become bright white. Backtracking to the portrait and interacting with it again will bring the player to Thumbtack World going forwards, as long as the Glasses effect is not equipped. Equipping the Glasses effect will change the painting back into an empty one, which will take you back to the chaser area. The frame turns back to white after the Glasses effect is unequipped.
