PIT OF GOBLIN enemies
There is no official bestiary. The names below come from Steam guides and the Fandom enemies page. Patch 0.5.0 is the studio note that adds Cave Bat, Rat, Mouther, and Ghost. The 1.0 announcement says there are new enemies and does not name them.
How to read the danger column
Danger scores such as 8/10 for the Knight or 10/10 for the Ghost are the guide author’s scale, not a studio stat. Damage ranges come from a second guide and sometimes conflict, so a cell that says “20–50, or a grab that kills” is a disagreement, not a typo. Empty damage means the guides I used never printed a number.
Aliases matter. Mouth is also Mouther and Chomp-Chomp. Eye is also Eyeball and Pyro Eye. Skeleton Assassin is also the archer. If you search a nickname and miss the row, try the alias column.
What the guides actually recommend
Ghost is the run-ender: leave, or use a Cross or a Ward. Knight grabs are described as lethal, with a group of three or four as the way people fight it. King Eye is a one-source entry, rated in the same breath as Ghost by that author, with 70–80 damage per bite and no solo method written down. I did not upgrade that to a shared consensus.
Slime is the “do not throw things” creature in more than one guide. Fireflies die to explosions. Mimics are the low-danger ambush: light them. Little Cyclops and Gorer sit on thinner sourcing, and the status column says so.

Questions
How many enemies are there?
Seventeen named threats have a paper trail here. 1.0’s new enemies are not in that count, because the patch note did not list them.
Are the numbers official?
No. Danger and damage are community measurements. The status column tells you how many write-ups agree.
