I have a friend who played this game. He said he would search every spitoon he came across just in case there was money in it. The game eventually told him he was disgusting and let him wear the spitoon as a helmet.
There are a lot of weird oddities like that in this game, it also has multiple endings, through branching decisions and missions, so there is a fair amount of replayability.
I picked up a copy of this last night and played a couple hours. Definitely entertaining. I've quickly collected a pack full of odd and random stuff that I hope becomes useful eventually. My little snake buddies don't seem to be good for much. If they don't die in the first attack wave of a fight, they whiff their attack, then die in round two. I guess their sacrifice saves me from a few points of damage if nothing else.
