A dark spherical orb reminiscent of a fortune-telling device, smooth and opaque until activated. The surface seems to absorb light rather than reflect it, giving the Fortune Ball an unnerving presence that makes it difficult to look at directly.
When shaken, the orb's interior illuminates briefly, revealing cryptic guidance about the bearer's journey ahead. Whether these predictions are accurate prophecy or manipulative suggestion remains unclear.
Shake the Fortune Ball to receive guidance about your journey. The messages that appear may hint at upcoming dangers, hidden paths, or important decisions.
Whether to trust or ignore its predictions is a choice only the wanderer can make.
The Fortune Ball can be discovered in various locations throughout the Backrooms. Its exact spawn points vary between runs.
Some wanderers swear by the Fortune Ball's guidance, claiming it has saved their lives on multiple occasions. Others warn that following its advice led them deeper into danger - perhaps exactly where it wanted them to go.
The question remains: does the Fortune Ball predict the future, or does it shape it?
"It told me to turn left. I turned right instead. Now I'll never know if that was the right choice or if I'm exactly where it wanted me." - Unknown Wanderer
