The '''Quee Potato''' was part of the September 2023 {{boldmono|[[GIFTBOX]]}} released by GM Wyrom. When first acquired, it was just ''a simple potato'' and required a variety of interactions to progress its state. This series of progressions was an intentional mystery until players discovered its secrets. It is possible to get a different outcome by permanently destroying the potato after acquiring it and before finishing its first progression phase.
