I played PQ months ago and just decided to play again with cheats. Imagine my surprise to find something quite new when you try to cheat. Now, that was funny. Good idea!
Oh yeah, found out you can pick up the fish in the bed with the net without getting you-know all over. But then you don't have anything to give the mushroom lady.

Yes, but then you can use the fish bomb against the fisherman... I think that helps somehow, but I can't remember...

For those too lazy to try and cheat in PQ... what does the 'tax man' do?

Anytime you try to cheat, he will show up and tell you give him all your gold and all your elixers (and anything you've bought with cheat money) OR all your blood. It happens almost everywhere in the game when you talk to various people.

And Simon, I gave the 'bomb fish' back to the fisherman (there was no benefit, just the satisfaction of exploding his own bomb on him) but I would rather have had the $10 bucks the mushroom lady gives you cuz I needed it after tangling with the tax man.
Darn it, a person can't even squirrel money away from the tax man even in a game!

I think you can arm the fish bomb and let it off near the fisherman (ie use the CTRL key with the item selected) and then it goes off... or maybe you can give it to the angry man so he can use against the fisherman, and then the angry man (the one who had it the fish in his bed originally)... but really you are right, it is better to have the fish bits on Dink so you can make 10 gold pieces from the mushroom lady.
