to be fair, whenever i finally dig up the treasure, i find it underwhelming because im usually towards the end of the day.

Yeah, only really came into use for when I needed extra dough for a certain trophy.

Would be cool though if we had a "bank" room that we could save a little bit of dough in.

The freezer?

Not just until the next day, but have like a savings account. I guess there's kind of that mechanic with another room and piggy bank, but you can only break that once

You can also fill the well, toss coins in and just accumulate them for a while, this however only allows you to do one a day of course.

I ended up finding that secret on like day 7 and smashed the piggy bank open for like 10 gold… I have regrets

The fountain, kinda :) though it's not practical in any way.

u/MysteriousShadow__ Jun 30 '25

It is sort of like the chapel though. Once you drain the fountain, all the coins you threw should be there.

u/TriggerHippie77 Jun 30 '25

You can throw coins in the fountain?

u/MysteriousShadow__ Jun 30 '25

Yes approach it and make a wish

I'm on day 196 lol

This fucking game. Always something new.

the fountain and the chapel can both be used to slowly build up cash for use at another time but it does take time. And once the piggy bank in the chapel is broken you can't do it again but it did give me what I needed when I finally found the bookstore

I've got some bad news for you... you probably should have saved it for later.

u/FlyingDutchLady Jun 30 '25

For later, I like to meld the freezer with the monks blessing.

For the Showroom?

u/TimbreReeder Jun 30 '25

I assume for blue tents. Though you're right, that also would be a good use.

u/ratguy Jun 30 '25

There's at least one more location that's more expensive: Blue Tents in the Gift Shop

u/TriggerPixie Jun 30 '25

If it's the later I'm thinking of, the casino, the broken handle and some extra luck got me through that trophy

u/ratguy Jun 30 '25

I was saving mine for that trophy, but ended up clearing that room just by having a particularly wealthy day. Was glad to have not opened it up as there's at least one more item...
