Vacuum

Super powerful makeshift vacuum. Good for sucking up items and maybe even small critters.
Overview
Vacuum is a super‑powerful makeshift vacuum device found in the game. It functions as an improvised suction tool that pulls in loose items and can also swallow small creatures. The item is described consistently across localizations as a rough, cobbled‑together cleaner with exceptional sucking power rather than a polished manufactured appliance.
As an item, Vacuum fills the role of a mobile looting and capture tool: it retrieves scattered objects from the environment more reliably than bare hands and offers the added capability of collecting small critters that occupy the same space as loot. The design emphasis in every localization is on raw suction strength and utility rather than finesse or elegance, so players should treat it as a straightforward way to centralize pickups and gather small living targets.
- Use Vacuum to gather nearby dropped items quickly instead of picking each up individually; it accelerates resource collection in cluttered areas.
- Use Vacuum on small creatures when the goal is to capture or remove them without direct combat; it is effective against diminutive targets.
- Expect the item to behave like an improvised tool: its descriptions emphasize power and utility rather than durability or advanced features.
- Vacuum is best deployed in situations with many loose items or when small fauna are present; it simplifies inventory acquisition and small‑scale crowd control.
