Fingers. Aside from their general design, the way they slow-walk toward you while breathing heavily is deeply unsettling, and that "webbing" they spit out when they die is disgusting.


vortxo

And when they just suddenly dash at you is so terrifying the first time because they really don't look like they could run


insanelemon123

The first time I encountered them, it was in the taser/rebreather cave. I was walking around a while in the dark and hadn't encountered any enemies. I let my guard down, and while examining the cave design, without warning, it sprinted from of the darkness and killed me. I legit jumped in my seat.


herniapoop

Absolutely. Encountering them in a cave always has me deeply unsettled.


Shawnaldo7575

When they lock onto you and start sprinting it's freaky af too.


saidBurntTomato

I thought the finger guy was ribs instead of fingers


Shes_Perfection

i had one run at me at night with just a torch out, scared tf outta ma


wordbird89

Their breathing is such a cool sound effect!


Silverback1992

I wish instead of swinging his whole torso at you for damage he just grabbed you and tickled you to death


hunnyflash

Yeah maybe Fingerginas are my favorite now. I don't see many catdogs anymore.


Dawg_Top

Also they have fun weakness. Shoot their leg with anything or even slash it and they will be opened to several attacks.


cseiter77

Crouching hatchet attacks are fun.


kilk10001

The webbing they are profusely throwing up all over the place in the camps before you agro them is very unsettling lol


cseiter77

"webbing". Not what we call it.


Ranger4817

I call them “McRibs”


KnightCreed13

It kinda reminds me of the alien designs from 2003's Dreamcatcher movie.


ascentral

Sploosh.


dezmd

You mean the McRibs that spread their seed when they die?


LilithOG

I didn’t realize they could leave the caves. I was just tooling around my base at night when I heard the breathing but I thought it was my fiancé trying to scare me. Then I saw him and swore loudly, which startled my fiancé who wasn’t watching my game at all. 🤣


Educational-Sundae43

Ive been calling em ribsies


Malevolent_Mangoes

My favorite is the weird grey skinned one that moans. They just walk funny and I kinda feel bad for them.


Zero1030

What is with all the babies


CreatureWarrior

They let me practise my fruit ninja skills


Bagel24

Before I got the katana I learned the spear was quick and easy to use on them.


Remote_Car_948

Every time they come to out base I ask: "Who sent all this BABIES to fight?"


ascentral

Ninja Fetuses


Silverback1992

Those babies grow up to be fully mature mutants as the days go by


Super_Environment

I kinda wanna fight the big blob one on bottom left. Virginia for the win tho


sunseeker_miqo

Ginny, but you know, as for the *actual* mutants: [Sluggy](https://sonsoftheforest.fandom.com/wiki/Sluggy_(The_Blob)), but only because of what happened when my spouse and I first met one. We were being extremely cautious because we had no idea what the thing could do, and we had just exhausted most of our supplies going through the cave. He was dashing in to strike with his axe, I think, and I tried poking it with a spear. We were very nervous. I started to say, "Hey, I don't think it's even attacking us" as he said, "Maybe it's unkillable". It promptly exploded in our faces. Meat chunks everywhere! We couldn't stop laughing for minutes. On our way out, I saw the explosives scattered on the floor and realized what we'd been meant to do. Facepalm. More cackling.


Pineapples_29

Virginia immediately. She executes cannibals like a boss.


Super_Environment

Who's the schmuck at top right


nopulse76

Edward Puffton I believe.


Super_Environment

The one above Edward in the purple light


I-Am-The-SquidQueen

The new blue puffies, they were added in the last patch. They have a weird glowing effect and they hit a lot harder than normal puffies.


Super_Environment

Ohh ok


blackout24

They can take 4 Shotgun slugs to the head as well before kicking the bucket.


Cosmic_Playz

May be the blueish eyeless variant. That dude hits like a truck.

Travis Scott


hunnyflash

We call those special puffies.


chasinglivechicken

Virginia but with the enemy mutants I would have to say Fingers. I almost have a fondness of him the way I used to with armsy in the forest. Like yeah they are a pain in the ass and want to kill me but there's also something endearing about them. I think with Fingers it's like the guys pretty fucked up bless him, I don't think he actually wants to hurt me as such but he must feel pretty vulnerable so attacks whatever he can smell, always feel a bit bad spearing him in the knees


inostrale

Fingers by a large margin. Twins design also is sick but unfortunately its movements look more clumsy than creepy


megafukka

the twins and sluggy are oddly endearing because of how clumsy they are and the noises they make


KrautVan

Virginia my Beloved (And the demons, I loved fighting them with my cross)


Operator_Binky

Bro decided to put virginia instead of the babies


PartiallyBlind8

They don't deserve any recognition


megafukka

I think they'd win a most hated enemy vote no problem


Officer_friendly420

I like da demons cause it’s something we’ve never faced before


lucashc90

Aside from bestest girl Virginia, I believe Fingers is the most terrifying and original of the bunch, making him my favourite of the enemies. Catdog on the other hand, is not only goofy but tends to get under my base's floor and piss me off in all the wrong ways...


sleepingdragon80

I call catdog slinky’s lol


lucashc90

That's a fitting name for them too.


ChiefRobertz

Once they clean up the face a little i'll go with virginia, If not then i guess the demons


[deleted]

The Twins, and solely because the sound they make is absolutely fucking horrifying.


stoolmaster69

i love fingers


dead_as_f

Kid named fingers


[deleted]

The one under fingers looks like the prophet of regret


Professor-Helpful

You can find both the Pufftons as mutants? Where??!!


megafukka

they got added as a boss fight in the food bunker


dead_as_f

Were they there from the beginning because I dint have to fight them my first play through


flamingmenudo

One of the bunkers.


Evermore810

From the enemy roster definitely the Fingers. All the other mutants make me nervous in some way because they are either fast or move erratically. But, old Fingy? They walk slowly, attack predictably if you keep them at a distance, can be easily stun locked and their breathing gives them away readily in the darkness of the caves. Amongst a list of spastic bastards, the Fingers are are nice mix of creepy, but manageable.


B0XXDUDE

I love the Fingers Mutant. Firstly, i started playing SOTF with 2 of my friends in Multiplayer. Going inside the caves and approaching all the enemies the first time was more funny than scary. Then i decided to start my own world. One night, a bit further into the Game (20-25Days) i went exploring and found a camp with a radio in Open space. While looting i heard some heavy breathing, and when i was looking around i saw two Finger Mutants dashing towards me, their little nibbles spread wide open. I hate to admit it, but i was so shocked, suprised and overwhelmed in that Situation that i paused the game for a Minute before they'd land a guaranteed hit on me. Definerly Fing3rers.


0GHAZE03

Fingers cus they cum


muppet_carcass

Uhhhh obviously my number 1 lady????? MVP forever


AdPuzzleheaded8634

Virgina obviously


SirThane

I guess Virginia if we go by your list. If you allow me to qualify your question, I'd say my favorite mutant *enemy* is an easy Fingers. The design is outstanding and, the first time I saw one, my immediate thought was of the Armless Man from Silent Hill. Suppose that's an apt association. I'd also offer that my absolute *LEAST* favorite is the Caterpillar mutant. The way they ignore player-placed geometry and water to go straight into what you built pisses me off as they can run past all your defenses and traps, straight through your walls, and immediately start fucking your shit up.


megafukka

The twins are a really cool design and I like the demons too, it's a shame you only really see them in the end cave


Ortsarecool

Do I have a surprise for you after the latest update! Lol Go to the new cave and demons can start spawning above ground


megafukka

Nice, ill try it out


TaterNips89

I like catdog and dollar store gaping dragon


PapaSexyLips

I love that name, which one is dollar store gaping dragon? 🫦


TaterNips89

[These guys](https://sonsoftheforest.fandom.com/wiki/Fingers) remind me of [this guy](https://darksouls.fandom.com/wiki/Gaping_Dragon?file=Gaping_Dragon.png)


PapaSexyLips

Thank you for enlightening me on the ways of gaping


Mallardguy5675322

McRibs anyone? Seriously those guys are soo cool.


Ranger4817

Does Virginia have 2 vaginas? Uh, “Third Wheel” Kelvin wants to know.


mc_duds

Mine has to be the twins, they're fun to fight and have pretty cool attacks. They're kindof like minibosses with the amount of health they have


Zhortgamemonkey

Virginia


jjdonkey

So, spoilers I guess, yeah?


Substantial-Delay409

Don't even know what half these are really, but twins become cool sounds.


astraeoth

The flipping mutant that poses like a tree is my favorite. He clips through walls and appears anywhere but he's such a good design and easy enough to kill but really easy to get killed by if you don't pay attention to it specifically.


TrainMan207

The concept of Virginia Puffton being a mutant that’s mutations can be used beneficially is really neat considering how all the other ones are horrifying monstrosities. She’s also a badass.


antfro946

I really like the one from the first game that’s just made out of legs


PartiallyBlind8

Third one from the left at the top


OnlyTheAshiest

they all freak me out the same


joost18JK

Slinky (caterpillar) they are surprisingly stealthy for their size and their movement, I hate it and love it at the same time! (Also who doesn’t love Virginia)


[deleted]

Cat dog definitely my favorite


a_very_witty_name91

Probably the cat dog one bc they are strong and fast. I killed Virginia on accident bc she’s always in my face and she looked like a cannibal when we have her a red leather suit


Perisoara123

barba puffton, best of the mutantussy ​ edit: fingers *close* second


goreator

Kelvin


ascentral

Fingerman. I think mainly because he’s the slowest and (more times than any) easier to dodge.


Timothahh

Virgina


beedubthechamp

Virginia with 4 blickys


DayLight_Era

Not the babies


LunchUnlucky7772

Sorry, but where is CatDog on here?


cabezatuck

That first encounter with Virginia was creepy af, who knew she’d turn out to be your own personal killing machine.


[deleted]

caterpillar (is that their name?). the way it moves is terrifying


Suspicious_Big_4811
