Fool's Gold

Fool's Gold
A nugget of gold. Or at least you thought so... oh well, looks like you can't trust anyone these days. It's very big and heavy, so maybe at least you can bash someone's head with it.

Obtaining

• All Gold Nuggets obtained from Town Control were turned into Fool's Gold after mining gold was introduced. There is no other way to get this item at the moment.
• Containers (Boxes, Shelves, Tables, Lockers).
• It's an early reward in Wacky Wasteland.

Uses

• Surprisingly, it can be used as a weapon.
• Even more surprisingly, it's the central focus of the story of Wacky Wasteland where it's first a deadly plot device and later it becomes a supernatural artifact.
• Although it looks like a Gold Nugget, it cannot be sold to the bank in Redding. It can be traded with some merchants though.
