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.

As with other attribute bars, a hunger bar changes color from right to left as it decreases, the reverse as it increases. The darker (or red) color is how much of the bar is empty.

The only way to restore hunger is to eat any of a variety of [[food]]s. [[Seed]]s and [[worm]]s provide very small amounts of health, while most [[fruit]] provide the  around 20% (one fifth) of a Blockhead's total hunger. Meat ([[Dodo Meat|dodo]] or [[Fish (food)|fish]]) restores more health than fruit. Raw meat provides less than cooked meat.

Hunger is one of a Blockhead's primary attributes, and is referenced by its Hunger Bar.

Terminology

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.

Display

Character Status Window

A Blockhead's hunger bar is included in its 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 item has just been selected from its inventory, which includes a button for it to eat one (per tap) of that item.

As with other attribute bars, a hunger bar changes color from right to left as it decreases, the reverse as it increases. The darker (or red) color is how much of the bar is empty.

Decreasing

If its hunger bar reaches zero, a Blockhead will start losing health.

The hunger bar should only decrease if the Blockhead is performing energetic actions like mining or crafting. However, it depletes at a slower rate than the energy bar. The only way to stop the hunger bar from declining is to meditate and, of course, wear the Sunrise Hat Of Fullness.

Restoring the Hunger Bar

Without the Sunrise Hat Of Fullness, the only way to restore a hunger bar that has been depleted is to have the affected Blockhead eat any of a variety of foods available in the game. Seeds and worms restore very small amounts of a hunger bar, while most fruit provide the around 20% (one fifth) of a Blockhead's total hunger needs. Meat (dodo or fish) restores more of a hunger bar than fruit. Raw meat provides less restoration than cooked meat.

All of the following items except for cooked meats may be obtained by meditating.

Low filling foods

These foods below undo small amount of hunger.

Worm Digging dirt or compost with any tool. Chance that it will drop worm.
Flax Seed Harvesting flax bushes. Occasionally dropped, too.
Sunflower Seed Harvesting sunflowers. Occasionally dropped, too

Medium filling foods
