The very detailed 34-page booklet contains Henry's field research about the Grail and doubles as a subtle CopyProtection method, as the in-game information resorts to it. The fine quality of the book made it look like a collector's item and some editors didn't realize the booklet was not a cosmetic addition so it was not included in any form in some versions.

It's two separate scores: one for what you had gained during the current playthrough, and another one which kept track of all score-giving actions you have accomplished in the game on any play. To gain full score in the latter includes doing things which are [[GuideDangIt nearly impossible]], make the last puzzle a lucky guess (for instance bluffing or beating the safe box guard instead of giving him a painting) or result in an instant death, such as punching Hitler in public.

Giving back stolen wrench also causes game to be unwinnable


** The radio operator on the zeppelin can only be enticed out of his room four times, and will not leave if the radio has been broken. If this state occurs while the ladder remains undeployed and you don't have the wrench, the game becomes unwinnable, because you have no way of reaching the parasite biplane to escape. The game does not end immediately when this happens, but does end soon afterward when the zeppelin reaches Berlin and the Joneses are executed.
