	A forest tile cannot be programmatically placed in any color except its default {{ColorSwatch\|fg=black\|bg=dark green}}, but it can be used to programmatically create elements of that color by overwriting it with an applicable element, such as a [[normal]] or a [[gem]]. It can also be used to create a second and more unusual color: overwriting it with a [[door]] produces a blinking [[door#Black doors\|black door]], which can be then be replaced with an applicable element to create a {{ColorSwatch\|fg=white\|bg=black\|blinking}} element.

The '''forest''' element is one of the built-in terrain elements of [[ZZT]]. It is a special kind of floor that can only by traversed by the [[player]] and not by creatures. When the player touches it, a special [[sound effects|sound effect]] plays and it is replaced with an [[empty]]. This is the only way to destroy a forest tile, as it is impervious to [[bullet]]s, [[star]]s and [[bomb]]s. In [[Super ZZT]], crossing forest tiles plays one note in an eight-note sequence for each individual tile, which repeats after the eighth note, and leaves a colored [[floor]] instead. When a player crosses a forest tile for the first time in a world, the engine announces that "A path is cleared through the forest."

A forest tile cannot be programmatically placed in any color except its default {{ColorSwatch|fg=black|bg=dark green}}, but it can be used to programmatically create elements of that color by overwriting it with an applicable element, such as a [[normal]] or a [[gem]]. It can also be used to create a second and more unusual color: overwriting it with a [[door]] produces a blinking [[door#Black doors|black door]], which can be then be replaced with an applicable element to create a {{ColorSwatch|fg=white|bg=black|blinking}} element.

The [[water]] element uses the same character, {{CharSwatch|176}}, but is not traversible except by [[shark]]s or projectiles.
