Gols

Gols Symbol

Gols are the main currency in the world of My Time at Portia. They are represented by the ⁠⁠ icon both in-game and across the wiki.

Obtaining

The player can obtain Gols a variety of ways:

• Selling items to shops
• Completing missions and commissions
• Defeating various monsters inside the Hazardous Ruins
• Destroying barrels/urns/crates in Hazardous Ruins and Amber Island's Cave

Special 2000 Gols letter

If the player suddenly becomes very poor, it is possible for a one-time letter to appear in their mailbox with 2000⁠⁠ attached. It is uncertain who the letter is from, but it is implied from the contents of the letter that it is from Higgins.

Letter From: Unknown

You're so poor it's embarrassing! Pull yourself together! Look at Higgins, his workshop is getting bigger and better because he works hard! P.S. Here are some funds to get you over the hump.

Use

Gols are primarily used for exchanging for goods or services, but they are also needed in order to pay for upgrades to the player's worktable and house levels, as well as their workshop yard size.

Gols can also be used to purchase upgrades for the player's crafting stations and house at A&G Construction, to pay for the subscription for the delivery service from the Tree Farm or Dana's Mining Company, to rent or purchase a horse at Rent-a-Horse, to change the player's appearance at the Barber Shop, to reset the player's skill trees via acupuncture, or to pay for the commissions the player posts at the Civil Corps board.

The shops that Gols can be spent or possibly earned at include the following:
