Money Case

"A cash case, Jack. Toss it at your enemies to gather them in one place for easy killing."

- Agent XIII

The Money Case, or Cash Case as Agent XIII refers to it, is a distracting item in MadWorld. It is the first distracting item to be introduced in the game and appears in the very first level.

It is simply a metal case with the word "CASH" printed on it, referring to its contents.

Involvement in the Jefferson Island DeathWatch games
The Money Case is the most common distraction item on Jefferson Island, appearing in three different areas multiple times: Varrigan City (in both Central Station and Downtown), Mad Castle (in the Courtyard) and Casino Land (on the Strip).

When picked up and thrown, it will burst and cause money bills to erupt into the air. This causes nearby Grunt Enemies to stop what they are doing and try to grab as many money bills as possible. If more than one enemy is present, they will begin to fight over the remaining bills after some time. The Money Case will be used mostly against Thugs and the Scissors Men, since they are the Grunt Enemies in the levels where it appears. However, most other Grunt Enemies are affected as well. This is evident in Man Darts II, where, if a Money Case is used during the Bloodbath Challenge, other Grunt Enemies will chase after the money. The only Grunt Enemies that are not affected by the Money Case are the Zombies. The lesser Shamans are affected by the Money Case, too.

The effect of the Money Case lasts for 20 seconds and is independent of how many enemies are distracted by it. The effect will not trigger if the Money Case is dropped, like when taking damage while carrying it.

A recommended strategy is to throw a Money Case into a large group of enemies and then follow up with an Explosive Drum for many points.
