* FanNickname: Throughout the game, pieces are acquired which ultimately get assembled to form a robot dog, which will sniff out hint coins. The player gets to name this dog; many players call it "Gizmo," since the pieces from which it's formed are identified as "strange gizmos."

* OrphanedReference: The awkward half-staircase that just leads to a bookshelf in the Reinhold Manor ([[spoiler:which also doesn't really obscure the fact that the bookshelf hides a secret room]]) exists because earlier versions of the room had that staircase lead to the lounge. In the final game, the lounge was moved upstairs, a change which also possibly explains why [[spoiler:Don Paolo was able to leap from the lounge's window and escape without injury]].
