Trinkets

"Is junk, I think."

- Wolfgang

Trinkets are a group of Items found by digging up Graves using a Shovel. Digging up each grave causes a Sanity loss of 10 points.

The only use for Trinkets is to be traded to the Pig King in exchange for Gold Nuggets. Otherwise, some players like to use certain trinkets as decoration. The following are all the Trinkets players can find :

Ball and Cup.png
The Ball and Cup has a 4.17% chance of being found when digging up a grave. A Cup-and-ball refers to a traditional children's toy where the player tried to catch the ball, which has a small cup, or hole, via the toy's handle. It can be traded to the Pig King for 4 Gold Nuggets, but it cannot be used in any crafting recipes.

This Trinket is known as "trinket_7" in the game files and can be DebugSpawned using that name.



Dessicated Tentacle.png
The Dessicated Tentacle has a 4.17% chance of being found when digging up a grave. It is not the same variety of Tentacle as the in-game mob, which are found in Swamps: it instead seems to resemble an octopus's tentacle.

It can be traded to the Pig King for 8 Gold Nuggets, but it cannot be used in any crafting recipes. Only the Hardened Rubber Bung can equal the amount of Nuggets given by the Pig King.

This Trinket is known as "trinket_12" in the game files and can be DebugSpawned using that name.

Gord's Knot.png
Gord's Knot has a 4.17% chance of being found when digging up a grave.

He released the cart by cutting the Knot with a knife, and went on to conquer much of Asia Minor, before his army rebelled. It has since become a metaphor for solving a complex problem with a simple solution, by thinking outside of the box.

It can be traded to the Pig King for 4 Gold Nuggets, but it cannot be used in any crafting recipes.

This Trinket is known as "trinket_3" in the game files and can be DebugSpawned using that name.

Lying Robot.png
The Lying Robot has a 4.17% chance of being found when digging up a grave. It is similar to a Robot toy. WX-78 claims the Lying Robot's name is 'HAL', and is his friend, the name 'HAL' is a reference to 2001: A Space Odyssey, in which a murderous supercomputer named HAL 9000 is found. The 'Lying' part of the robot's name probably refers to the story Liar!, by Isaac Asimov.

It can be traded to the Pig King for 5 Gold Nuggets, but it cannot be used in any crafting recipes.

Reign of Giants icon.png
In the Reign of Giants DLC, certain trinkets can be found in Tumbleweed or vomited from a Catcoon. They can also be given to a Catcoon to befriend it.

Moleworms will pick up Trinkets if laying on the ground, however they will drop the items when killed.


 * Under the old research method, Trinkets were one of the best ways of gaining research points (80 points).
 * The reason these items are known as "trinkets" is due to their file names (trinket1, trinket2 etc.).
