The item list

The item database holds all 18 items with appearance and effects. In Content Warning a pickup is not always a gift — many are curses that punish a greedy grab.

Grab these for footage or utility

  • Bones, Apple, Chorby — pure content value, safe to carry.
  • Old Painting — content, but holding it 3+ seconds spawns Big Slap nearby. Film it, then drop it.
  • Radio — plays loud music; useful as a distraction or just flavour.
  • Sketch Pad / Titlecard — let you write on-screen titles for your SpöökTube clip.

Cursed — read before you touch

  • Radioactive Container — holding 3+ seconds ragdolls and kills you, dropping the item.
  • Shroom — holding 3+ seconds turns you into a Shroomed Player (no revert; you lunge at teammates).
  • Brain on a Stick — spawns 5 Snails at the nearest off-screen spawn point.
  • Animal Statues — picking up the “Aminal Stateu” flips your gravity and drains health until a teammate throws the other statue at you.
  • Goo Ball, Grabber Arm, Hugger, Rescue Hook, Shock Stick — tools; the Shock Stick is your panic disable for 27 of 31 creatures (see the enemy guide).

When to risk a curse

Some cursed items are worth the scare for the footage. Only take the risk when your team can cover you and your escape is open — the survival guide covers the discipline.
