* At one point, the player must willingly [[ViolationOfCommonSense run themselves through the Totemizer machine]]. Depending on how you messed with the controls beforehand, you can either get stuck on the side of the Jersey Turnpike, get flung into space, spend an eternity in hell or go exactly where you need to go... [[YetAnotherStupidDeath only to realize you can't de-totemize]]. Dalboz comments on [[TheDevTeamThinksOfEverything every single possibility]].

* The humorous material in the game can be divided into five categories: things Dalboz says ("You gain 86 experience points and found a healing potion.

You gotta be a moron to perform impromptu root canal on a sleeping dragon. It just isn't done."), and everything else ("The Alarm System is down. Can everybody please try and cheer him up?").
