Unused Items

There are a number of items in the game which were never used, and can only be obtained by hacking. None of them actually do anything, however.

• Aloe Leaves - The description only states that they're "Leaves from an aloe plant". It's possible they could have been another healing item, or possibly one of many "quest" items needed to help a town improve.

• Carrot - "A carrot" is the only description this item has. In all likelihood, it was another of many items needed to help a town. Its icon is the same as the Ginseng.

• Heaven Statue - This item is rather interesting. Its description says that it's "Used to summon rainfall", which suggests that it may have once been intended as an item in a puzzle. Or it could've been yet another town progression item. Its icon is the same as the Sleepless Seal.

• Grass Whistle - This enigmatic item is listed between the Heaven Statue and the Dog Whistle in the game's data, so it probably worked with one of those items. Perhaps you placed the Heaven Statue, and played the Grass Whistle to call rain? Its icon is just a generic placeholder which appears many times among the item sprites.

• Airplane Parts - "No description" is all the help the description offers, but it's pretty obvious this was intended to be used to help Will invent the airplane.

• Grenade - Another "No description" item. Probably intended to be used to destroy an obstacle somewhere.

• Beeper - The last "No description" item. Either intended as some sort of communication receiver, or another town progression item.

• Powered Gear - The description says it all: "Enables lifting of heavy objects". Undoubtedly, this would have allowed you to lift much heavier objects, as the better gloves/bracelets allow in Zelda games. This item has no icon whatsoever.
