U.S. player update · October 28, 2026: The Mushroom Infestation reward’s unlock path is no longer just a theory. Guides published today report that players must enter Scary Shawarma Kiosk through The Hollow hub, complete a Story Mode Full Shift, successfully serve seven Hollow Entities, then return to the hub to claim the reward at the pedestal beside the kiosk portal. Roblox has confirmed the badge exists, but the exact quest steps and reported 10-Ticket payout are based on current third-party walkthroughs, not a detailed official Roblox instruction page.
Quick answer: how to get Mushroom Infestation
- Open the official The Hollow experience.
- In the event hub, enter the Scary Shawarma Kiosk portal.
- Start a round in Story Mode and choose Full Shift from the in-game menu.
- Finish the full shift and successfully serve seven Hollow Entities. Read each order carefully; do not leave after the seventh serve if the shift is not yet complete.
- Return to The Hollow hub after the round ends.
- Interact with the reward pedestal beside the Scary Shawarma Kiosk portal to claim Mushroom Infestation, if the reward is available on your account.
Current guides estimate a Full Shift can take around 20 minutes. Set aside enough time to finish rather than starting when you need to leave soon. This route is reported by current walkthroughs; if your live game presents different requirements, follow the in-game objective.
Why the unlock path seemed unclear
Mushroom Infestation appeared among the official The Hollow hub badges, but the badge listing itself did not spell out the full acquisition steps. That created a gap between two different facts: the reward’s existence was visible, while the method for earning it needed a separate source. New walkthroughs now report a partner-game quest rather than a Floor 7 maze relic.
This distinction matters because The Hollow has several reward routes. A floor relic, a partner-game quest badge, a hub pedestal claim and a shop purchase are not interchangeable. Completing one does not automatically prove that you completed the others.
How to serve seven Hollow Entities without losing the run
The reported challenge requires seven successful Hollow Entity orders during one Full Shift. The important part is serving each customer correctly and completing the entire shift, not simply reaching seven interactions.
- Read the complete order first. Check every ingredient and drink request before preparing the shawarma.
- Follow ingredient instructions exactly. Current guides call out cheese and salad when requested; do not add extras unless the order asks for them.
- Check the meat preparation. Heat the meat as instructed instead of rushing through the order.
- Include the requested soda. A correct main item may still fail if you miss the drink.
- Confirm the serve registers. If an order is rejected or marked wrong, do not assume it counts toward the seven successful serves.
- Finish the Full Shift. The reported route requires completing the shift as well as serving the seven entities.
These are practical takeaways from current third-party guides, not a guarantee that every server behaves identically. If the game displays a counter or quest prompt, use that as your source of truth.
Where do you claim the item and the Tickets?
After the Full Shift is finished and the seven successful serves are complete, return to The Hollow hub. Current walkthroughs say the Mushroom Infestation reward is claimed at the pedestal beside the Scary Shawarma Kiosk portal. They also report a 10-Ticket reward for the challenge.
Do not stop at the badge notification. A partner-game badge may be earned inside the kiosk experience, while the avatar item is claimed separately at the hub. Visit the pedestal and check whether the item is marked claimed or still available.
What is confirmed, and what is still reported?
| Claim | Evidence status | What players should do |
|---|---|---|
| Mushroom Infestation exists as a The Hollow hub badge/reward | Listed by current event trackers using the Roblox badge source | Check the live hub and your inventory. |
| Complete a Story Mode Full Shift | Reported by current walkthroughs | Follow the objective shown in the game. |
| Serve seven Hollow Entities successfully | Reported by current walkthroughs | Track successful orders and finish the shift. |
| Claim at the pedestal beside the kiosk portal | Reported by current walkthroughs | Return to the hub and inspect the pedestal. |
| Receive 10 Tickets | Reported payout, not stated in Roblox’s main event announcement | Check the result screen and current reward display. |
Common mistakes to avoid
- Choosing a shorter mode instead of Full Shift.
- Leaving after serving seven customers but before the shift is complete.
- Assuming a rejected or incorrect order counts as a successful serve.
- Forgetting a requested ingredient or soda.
- Staying inside the kiosk after earning the badge and missing the separate hub claim step.
- Confusing Mushroom Infestation with a similarly named catalog item. Confirm the item name and claim location in The Hollow hub.
FAQ
Is Mushroom Infestation a Floor 7 maze reward?
Current walkthroughs describe it as a reward for the Scary Shawarma Kiosk partner-game quest. That is separate from the Floor 7 maze objective and its relic reward.
How many Hollow Entities must I serve?
Current guides report seven successful Hollow Entity serves during a Full Shift. Follow any live counter or objective prompt shown in your round.
How long does the quest take?
Walkthroughs estimate about 20 minutes for a Full Shift. Your run can vary, so allow extra time to complete orders and finish the shift.
Do I get Mushroom Infestation automatically after the badge?
Current guides say to return to The Hollow hub and interact with the pedestal beside the Scary Shawarma Kiosk portal. Check the pedestal and your inventory rather than assuming the hub claim is automatic.
Does the quest pay 10 Tickets?
Current third-party guides report 10 Tickets. Treat that amount as reported until you see the payout in your own result screen or the live event interface.
