Gambiteville is a town in Tao World located in the middle of the Sandsong Desert, North of Alomomola City. It serves as a place to rest from traveling within the desert, and a hot spot for outlaws to gather.
Prior to inheriting both Tao Village and Alomomola City from his brother, Agave ran a ranch here and set up a small shop.
Missions and Events
A Thirst for Gold
At an unspecified point in time, Syrup paid a visit to a Gambiteville saloon, on behalf of a Krokorok named Mac. Some time during her drinking (which had no negative effects on her due to her typing), a Seviper named Guld entered the saloon. He declared it was his time to drink and told Syrup to leave or face him. The Skuntank had no interest in leaving her drink and challenged the villain. After Guld attempted to kill Syrup with Trump Card, but Syrup was somehow unaffected, and she was able to kill Guld by forcing his own tail through his throat. Later on, Syrup claimed the bounty that had been on Guld's head, removed his tail for a trophy, and asked the saloon bartender, a Cacturne named Donahue, to turn his lifeless body into a stew.
Reprieve
Overwhelmed with the about of responsibility thrown upon his tiny shoulders, Mike left the ruined Tao Village and sought out his mother to seek out advice. Syrup took advantage of her son's visit and showed him off to the residents of Gambitville. While visiting the general store, he met and quickly befriended Opal, who was currently employed there while she practiced her craft of gem cutting.
After the shop owner of the general store was found dead, residents of the town immediately suspected Opal, but she had been on a trip with Mike looking for gems. Not feeling safe to stay there any further, Mike insisted Opal returned to Tao Village with him as his girlfriend.
Mission 8
Some time before the events in Mission 8, the ghost of Opal's father, Gold, killed the owner of the alcohol store of Gambitville, and withheld a shipment of alcohol of the Tao Merchant's Guild. As a response, teams of Merchants were sent to the town to retrieve the shipment.
While in the past, PK and Mike began to talk about the location of Micle's ponchos in the present. While the iridescent poncho was on display in the family home in Alomomola City, Mike mentioned seeing an old poncho at his home that looked similar to the crystalline poncho. Upon learning of the location of Mike's home, PK confirmed it was indeed the very same. As it turns out, Mike and Syrup's home is located very close to Agave's old ranch, which he abandoned after he inherited both Tao Village and Alomomola City.
