Psychonauts 2 Compton’s Cookoff Nuggets of Wisdom are collectibles you’ll have to find in the fourth brain Raz gets to explore. Compton’s Cookoff is the area that becomes available after Hollis’ Hot Streak, and it is the smallest in the game.

There are two Psychonauts 2 Nuggets of Wisdom collectibles you’ll have to find here if you aim for 100% completion at the end of the video game developed by Double Fine Productions. The moment you enter this Brain, you’ll notice that your goal is to win a cooking contest.

Because you’ll be racing against time, focus on finishing all three cooking rounds. The time is not important, meaning that you can also finish the level if the time runs out.  Now, replay the level using the device in Sasha’s Laboratory and get all the collectibles.

Nugget Of Wisdom #1

Brain Location: Cooking Stations

The first Nugget of Wisdom is found between the frying station (green frog) and the mixing station (yellow cat).  You should be able to spot it on top of a ramp. It is very accessible because if you place Raz in front of the green worm that allows you to fast travel, you’ll be able to reach the node in the distance and connect to it using the Mental Connection. Once you do that, you’ll be above the collectible so you can drop next to it.

Nugget Of Wisdom #2

Brain Location: Cooking Stations

The second Psychonauts 2 Nugget of Wisdom in Compton’s Cookoff is also very accessible, but it is located on top of the mixing station.  If you look up, you’ll spot it near a goat. Not sure what that goat is doing there, though.

Ok, so in order to get there and claim the collectible, your starting point will be the left side of the boiling station (blue hippo). Behind it, you’ll see several nodes you can use to connect Raz if you have unlocked the Dark Thoughts Mental Connection upgrade. If you did not, you’ll need to return here when you do.  These nodes will take you close to a net. Jump on it to grab the second Nugget of Wisdom here.
