Horseshoes are depicted as normal pickups within [[Las Venturas]] that increase the player's [[Stats|luck]], which originally starts out at 0. Each acquired horseshoe increases the player's luck by 20, as well as awarding the player $100. Luck does not affect the player's [[Gambling|gambling skill]], but it aids the player when they are gambling at a casino (but not at a [[Fast Tracks|betting shops]]) by increasing the chances of winning in a betting game (Wheel of Fortune or video poker). Because horseshoes are occasionally found on hard-to-reach rooftops, the player is recommended to utilize a [[helicopter]] or a [[jetpack]] to collect horseshoes.
