Managing corruption spread in Small worlds can prove challenging when purple chasms divide surface biomes and threaten nearby towns. Worlds with compact, isolated corruption formations give builders room to construct surface bases and hellevators without constant monster pressure from Eater of Souls. These four Small seeds feature contained corruption layouts paired with convenient subterranean gear, allowing players to prepare for the Eater of Worlds battle on their own terms.
