In [[Mazeworld]], '''cocaine''' can be treated as a combat-enhancing drug, as it boosts by 10% strength and reduces by 10% sensitivity to [[Pain]]. It also increases alertness, allowing the [[Contestant|contestant]] to avoid possible traps, although not an efficient method, as alertness is only increased temporarily and will wane away with the other effects over time. Cocaine isn't without its negative effects however - users will suffer from hallucinations, making them lose grip on reality and start confusing one thing for another.

Because of the hallucinations it creates, cocaine is a poor combat-enhancing drug despite the effects it gives, as the contestant will not know who or what his/her opponent really is (unless he/she consumes the drug during a fight with an already-known enemy). It should only be used in emergencies, if combat is inevitable but if Pain levels are high or have chances of going too high.

Being '''white powder''', a form of medical aid that has no placebo form, it is generally not recommended to consume it unidentified, as it could be the similar [[PCP]]. The drug should be identified by a [[medic]] or a [[Peaceful scientist|peaceful scientist]]. Due to its poor efficiency as a combat enhancing drug, and its high selling price, cocaine may also be '''sold''' for a reasonable amount of money to a [[medic]].
