This side objective usually appears as a consequence of investigating something in a random event (be it a sandwich sign guy or a leaflet in a wrecked car).
This event can also occur in the "It's time to gamble!", "Casino Royale", "Lucky Peacock Casino", and "Wild Card" radio encounters.
When you go to the objective, you're presented with three types of games detailed below. They are all repeatable until you run out of scrap.
Roulette[]
Pick a choice and then see if you win. The more the odds are stacked against you, the worse your odds are at winning but also the greater the reward.
Wheel of Fortune[]
Pretty basic game. Random reward:
- Random amount of scrap less than 100.
- Free spin.
- Nothing.
- 100 scrap
- An amount of scrap above 100 that is a multiple of 100 (e.g. 300).
- 3-4 equippables (quality seems to be based on the world threat level)
- Gold Car
- An absurd amount of bottle caps. leads to the damn bottlecaps! quest.
Slot Machines[]
Bet 1, 10, or 100 scrap to get nothing, equal, or better back. Very rarely (1:2899) the jackpot can be won unlocking the Lucky Fether achievement.
