== Interactions ==
When approached, Akabi will invite the player to participate and Spin the Wheel for 500 gold, loudly promoting the allure of winning the jackpot. Akabi magically rigs his game, guaranteeing that participants will only ever get one of the sixteen largely useless [[Akabi#Consolation Prizes|consolation prizes]], unless the player manages to cheat the djinn himself.

Regardless of how the player won, Akabi will be enraged and accuse them of cheating. He will transport the contestant, alone, to a [[Jungle]] in the distant land of {{FRWiki|Chult}}. If the player can survive, they'll find the legendary [[Tridents|trident]] [[Nyrulna]] in a locked chest near the portal back to the circus.
=== Jackpot "prize" ===
Regardless of how the player won, Akabi will be enraged and accuse them of cheating. He will transport the contestant, alone, to a [[Jungle]] in the distant land of {{FRWiki|Chult}}. This is the only way to reach this area and obtain the items within, notably the trident [[Nyrulna]] and the ring [[Band of the Mystic Scoundrel]].


There is also a [[Band of the Mystic Scoundrel]] hidden in the cave to the west of the portal, high above behind a large fallen tree.
Akabi will permanently close down the game if the one character wins the jackpot, all characters are turned to cheese, or if all consolation prizes are claimed by spinning the wheel 16 times. In order to obtain all the rewards, including the jackpot, one must have 8,000 gold in hand, spin the wheel normally 15 times, and win the jackpot on the 16th spin.
