But don't worry, the Big Lollipop will not cause you harm, at least in a permanent way.

What Happens When You Eat the Big Lollipop in PEAK?

Risk, Reward

Licking the Big Lollipop item in PEAK will have two effects on your climber. First, the good part about the Big Lollipop is that you will gain unlimited stamina for about 10 seconds, allowing you to climb and sprint pretty far distances without needing a break. It's super useful if you feel stuck somewhere and have to make a ridiculous jump or climb.

However, the second thing that the Big Lollipop will do to you is cause you to get the sleeping status effect. A few seconds after the tasty snack, your stamina bar will be taken up by the ailment a third of the way. Thankfully, the sleeping status will go away by itself after just a few short seconds. So, if you're using the item to make a long climb, make sure to rest for a little while until the status disappears.
