A Scarab was the monetary unit of planet Sauria in Star Fox Adventures. They were in fact living beetles found under boulders. They came in four colors, which also represent their value. Every green one is worth one Scarab, orange ones were worth three Scarabs, the red ones were worth five and the orange ones were worth ten Scarabs each. It was sometimes hard to distinguish the three latter ones for their similar appearance, but their escape speed reveals their value: Greens were very sluggish, orange and red ones were mid fast, and gold ones were very quick and hard to catch. Fox can initially carry ten Scarabs, but the amount rises as he obtains Scarab Bags. The Small Scarab Bag holded up to 50 Scarabs, the Medium one 100 Scarabs and the Large Bag could contain 200. Scarabs were used to buy things from the ThornTail Store, but they were also needed to open new paths by paying the two BribeClaws and the mysterious Scarab-shaped post before the entrance to CapeClaw in LightFoot Village. They could also be used to buy Cheat Tokens.
