While it would be more accurate to say that a decrease in a Blockhead's hunger bar increases its hunger, it's not unusual for game descriptions to drop the word "bar" and thus invert the meaning of the word "hunger" in casual use.

A Blockhead's hunger bar is included in its [[User Interface#Character Status Window|character status window]] (See #3 in the provided image.), which is displayed when its character status icon is tapped while it is selected. The bar is also provided in a pop-up window above the active Blockhead when an edible [[Items|item]] has just been selected from its [[inventory]], which includes a button for it to eat one (per tap) of that item.
