Not to be confused with the Treasure Bag(Desktop, Console and Mobile versions), a similar, Expert Mode-exclusive item.

The Goodie Bag is a grab bag-type item available during the Halloween seasonal event. Each contains one random reward from the list below. Goodie Bags are opened by pressing Open / Activate from within the player's inventory, similar to all other grab bags. They can be opened anytime, even outside the Halloween season.

Goodie Bags are dropped by any enemy except statue-spawned enemies and Meteor Heads with a 1/80 (1.25%) chance, during Halloween only[1].

Tips

  • Goodie Bags can quickly be acquired by defeating large numbers of enemies. While Water Candles and Battle Potions increase the regular spawn rate, events like the Goblin Invasion or the Slime Rain prove to be even more effective.
  • Most Goodie Bag rewards are vanity item sets (66.6%) or Rotten Eggs (24.67%), with occasional paintings (7.4%). Costumes are mostly two or three pieces received together, and sell for 60 SC per piece. The paintings sell for 10 SC each.

Trivia

  • Many of the vanity sets are references to popular culture:
  • The "Jacking Skeletron" painting is a reference to the 1993 American stop-motion animated musical dark fantasy Halloween-Christmas movie The Nightmare Before Christmas, in which the main character is Jack Skellington. The scene depicted in the painting is of Skeletron at an iconic location from the movie.
    • Additionally, jacking is slang for stealing, and the main plot of The Nightmare Before Christmas was Jack Skellington attempting to steal Christmas so he could handle the holiday, instead of Santa.
  • The Treasure Hunter Set could possibly be a reference to the video game characters, Lara Croft and Nathan Drake.
