Diablo is known for having some rather wild hidden stages, with the infamous Moo Moo Farm level in Diablo II being a hilarious departure from the series' dark themes. But that one has been talked to death, and Diablo III also has its own goofy level.

If you're playing Diablo III and fancy a little respite from the hellish landscape, head on down to Whimsyshire! This is a unique care-bear-esque land designed to look as if it were drawn by a child, featuring unique art assets that switch up chests and standard objects to sweet things. It also contains unique creatures, including Unicorns, Teddy Bears, and Pink Flowers. Aww, cute, right?

Well, in typical Diablo fashion, you're not here to drink tea and frolic in fields; you're here to kill everything you can. There are still plenty of enemies to defeat and gore to be spread, leaving the final picture of Whimsyshire looking like a rather demented take on Teletubbies once you're done with it.

Those who want to access this strange detour from Sanctuary can do so by acquiring multiple unique items, crafting the Staff of Herding, traveling to Old Tristram Road in The Old Ruins, and locating the skeletal corpse of a cow. After using the Staff on it, you can talk to Ghost of the Cow King, eventually leading you to Whimsyshire.
