The mini Fairy Biome update in 99 Nights in the Forest adds a new puzzle-style objective that confuses many players on their first run. This update is not about combat alone but focuses on exploration, item collection, and understanding how the tree root system works. If you are stuck trying to save the tree or unsure how the Farm Recipe Tablet functions, this guide explains the entire process clearly from start to finish.

What Is the Fairy Biome Update?
The Fairy Biome introduces a damaged giant tree that must be restored to unlock new rewards. To complete this update, players must collect Acorns, connect tree roots correctly across the map, and open a locked chest tied to the Mother Tree. Once completed, you gain new tools and a special crafting upgrade item.
How to Get Acorns in the Fairy Biome
Acorns are required to extend and connect tree roots.
- Acorns drop from new wolves found in the Fairy Biome
- Some wolves visibly carry acorns
- Defeat these wolves to collect acorns
You will need multiple acorns, so expect to farm wolves for a while before progressing.
How the Tree Root System Works
This is the most confusing part of the update.
- Acorns are not planted randomly
- Each acorn extends a tree root
- Roots must connect to other existing root segments
The goal is to link all disconnected roots together until the giant tree is fully restored.
Important Detail Many Players Miss
One of the root trunks is located far across the map, on the opposite side of the Fairy Biome. Many players mistakenly think the roots must reach water, but this is incorrect. The roots must connect to other hidden trunks, not water sources.
Step-by-Step: Saving the Tree
- Farm wolves to collect multiple acorns
- Place acorns to extend roots toward nearby root segments
- Search the entire biome to locate hidden root trunks
- Connect every trunk together using acorns
- Once all roots are connected, the giant tree is restored automatically
After restoration, the locked chest near the tree becomes accessible.
Rewards for Restoring the Tree
Opening the chest gives two key rewards:
- Strong Axe
- Farm Recipe Tablet
The axe is a direct upgrade, while the tablet unlocks new farming progression.
How to Use the Farm Recipe Tablet
The Farm Recipe Tablet cannot be used directly from your inventory.
Correct Way to Use the Tablet
- Go to your Crafting Bench
- Place the Farm Recipe Tablet into the bench
- This upgrades your existing farm plot recipe
You will receive:
- Enriched Farm Plot Recipe
This unlocks better farming options once your crafting bench is upgraded further.
Enriched Farm Plot Explained
The Enriched Farm Plot is an improved version of the standard farm plot. To fully use it:
- Upgrade your crafting bench (requires bolts and other materials)
- Craft the Enriched Farm Plot once available
This allows better resource farming and improved long-term survival efficiency.
Common Mistakes to Avoid
- Trying to plant acorns near water
- Ignoring far-away root trunks
- Expecting the tablet to work without a crafting bench
- Thinking the update is bugged when roots are simply not connected yet
Most issues come from missing one hidden root on the map.
The Fairy Biome update in 99 Nights in the Forest is more about problem-solving than grinding. Once you understand how acorns extend roots and where the missing trunks are located, saving the tree becomes much easier. The Farm Recipe Tablet is a valuable reward that improves farming progression, making this update worth completing. If you follow the steps carefully and explore the full map, you can finish the entire update without frustration.
