* The weird sparking/glitching effect that occurs in the second game as you tune the glyphs is both disorienting and a little hard on the eyes. What does AS complain about in one of his notes? That he can't wear his own eyepiece for long, because it makes his eyes and head hurt. No ''wonder'' the Craftsman dismissed AS's lenses as "crude".

FridgeBrilliance: The third game has you collect five Null shards. This can represent the five 'dead victims' from second game: [[spoiler:Rigby (the Swindler), Hirst (the Captain), Baia (the Priest) AS (the Mentor), and Lucy Montfaucon (the Heart).]] I say 'dead victims' because their souls were collected by [[spoiler:The Craftsman]] to create the Null shards and therefore DeaderThanDead. The other two 'victims,' [[Spoiler: [[spoiler: Maggie Cox and Simon Grayson]], may have died a traditional death (i.e. soul left their bodies) but their souls were [[spoiler:trapped in something (the Fortune Teller booth for Cox and the paper theatre for Grayson, both in the Library)]] and therefore were not [[spoiler: collected.]]
