}}'''The Grotto''', previously also known as '''Halt's Cave''', is a location in [[The Mines]]. It is where [[Halt]]'s encounter used to take place before the [[Update Logs|Content Update]].

=={{Icons|Overview}} Overview==
''The Grotto'' starts with a tunnel that [[player|players]] have to crawl through. After this, the players move around a collapsed section of rock, with item lockers lining the left side. The player then travels through a small body of water and comes across a section where they are required to push a [[minecart]] to break a wooden barrier. ''The Grotto'' then ends with a snaking path leading to the exit door.  

This room is still present in the game, but it is now a regular room.  

== Notes==   

*To avoid other players pushing the minecart into you, you can hug the wall to the left of the track.
**Make sure to move in order to avoid the wooden beams.

=={{Icons|Trivia}} Trivia==  
*''The Grotto'' is most likely to spawn before [[The Caverns]].  
**This is partially because it can only spawn when opening a wooden door. Many of these doors are replaced with metal sewer doors after [[The Nest]].
*Only one player needs to push the minecart for the wooden barrier to be broken for everyone.
*Before the [[Update Logs|Content Update]], it was possible to not encounter ''The Grotto'' at all in a run, albeit incredibly rare.
**After this update, the Grotto was made much more likely to not appear in a run.
*Before the [[Update Logs|Content Update]], players could get unlucky if they get a room containing [[Figure]] right after this room, due to them entering most likely while standing up, immediately triggering the entity and not being able to retract back into the previous room.
**This is still possible to happen with [[The Bridges]], albeit still very rare.
*''The Grotto'' can be found as a normal room and a firedamp room.
*''The Grotto'' was originally the room in which you would encounter Halt in before the Content Update.
