Instrument

Instruments are a fairly common occurrence in MS Paint Adventures, and their purpose is often multi-natured and somewhat unexpected. Instruments typically seen are of the brass and woodwind nature, such as Oboes, Bassoons, Trombones, and the like. There is a violin available in Jail Break, but a Prisoner breaks it to holster his key, and a Piano in the Piano Room. Instruments serve as a way to solve Weird puzzle shit, helping Problem Sleuth get a note to continue on with the game. Instruments also serve as weapons for the Legendary jazz musicians, as they attack with their horn based onslaught against Morthol Dryax. Instruments are also used as security devices, as they can be wedged between doors to keep things shut. It's universally accepted, as shown by a myriad of characters, that an instrument is the best way to keep people from just walking around all over the place.

Instruments however can not withstand characters with ridiculous amounts of Vim, such as Fiesta Ace Dick.
