One Black Myth: Wukong Item Is Either A Total Scam, Or An Undiscovered Treasure
has one rare item that could be a secret treasure, or end up as one of the biggest scams in the game. Secrets in this action RPG are aplenty and can provide some beneficial buffs and hidden lore.

It would be interesting to get some kind of bonus quest from this initial one, but the scam is fun too. Given how many opportunities players have to get stronger,having one area where they can fail permanently is a nice touch.
