History VideoGame / Discworld

* ShoutOut: If you examine the grain you collect from the livery stable, Rincewind will comment, "[[Series/StarTrekTheOriginalSeries Quadrotriticale]], I presume." Although he pronounces it "quadro-try-ti-kale" rather than the correct "...tritt-i-kay-lee" ([[NoPronunciationGuide this is Discworld, after all]]).

* DisneyVillainDeath: [[spoiler: You sent the Offlian Monk to one with a carpet.]]

* ExtremeOmnivore: To complete the final act [[spoiler: you have to feed Mambo the Swamp Dragon with several things including charcoal, soot and a lit stick of explosive.]]

A Point and Click game based on Creator/TerryPratchett's book series of the [[Literature/{{Discworld}} same name]], developed by Teeny Weeny Games and Perfect 10 Productions and released by Creator/{{Psygnosis}} in 1995 for the PC and UsefulNotes/PlayStation. This game in question is ''very'' loosely adapted from ''Literature/GuardsGuards'' with a lot of setting elements from ''Literature/MovingPictures''. It features the character Rincewind (voiced by Eric Idle) and the Luggage [[ExcusePlot trying to stop a dragon summoned by an evil Brotherhood.]]

* EverythingsBetterWithMonkeys: *BASH!* (cue CirclingBirdies) Did you get the number of that donkey cart? (see RunningGag below)

* BlingBlingBang: A plot point, the members of the brotherhood who summoned the dragon did so using golden items. Each of them as one, some overall common [[spoiler: ( A golden tooth, the bells on Chucky's hat)]] and others not [[spoiler: ( The chimney sweep pole).]] At one point you're asked to find them.

* ChainmailBikini: The Amazon woman wears one and even refers to as such, stating that's quite unpractical and that it keeps it up due to the pressure: [[AllMenArePerverts Everyone's eyes are on it.]]

* EldritchAbomination: Rincewind runs afoul of one of the Things from the Dungeon Dimensions, a critter with a hundred eyes and purple skin.

* InformingTheFourthWall: "That doesn't work!" rapidly became the game's MostAnnoyingSound due to it being Rincewind's only response to incorrect item combinations. Fortunately Perfect Entertainment realized this and increased Rincewind's repertoire in the sequel.

Pratchett's style of humour is incorporated into the game, making for various funny moments along the way. This game is also noted for being [[NintendoHard very difficult]], with explanations not being given for the majority of the puzzles, meaning that often times you will have missed one thing that looked like part of the scenery that could've been picked up.

* FetchQuest: Lampshaded at least once in the dwarven mine, where once Rincewind points out that everyone seems to want a favor from him the blacksmith immediatly asks for tankard of elderberry wine for his job.

* GagBoobs: There's some boob-related humor in this game, including Big Sally's incredibly spacious bosom, the wannabe actress who augmented her bustline with a troll's fragments and the Lady herself hiding Rincewing in her cleavage, much to his pleasure.

* LadyLand: Both the Braggart and the Sailor mentions a land inhabitated by Amazon Women. [[NoodleIncident Details are scarce,]] [[StrangeMindsThinkAlike but both tales involves custard and tea.]]

* LookADistraction: First with a huge, purple thing with a hundred eyes behind the Archcancellor [[spoiler: [[BrickJoke which turns out to be real later]]]] and later in a puzzle in the Broken Drum where you have to trick the braggart into drinking a spiked ale.

* NeverSmileAtACrocodile: Offler the Crocodile God is much crocodilian in this game. It's also implied that the river at the bottom of the gorge where his temple is located is infested with them.

* VictoriasSecretCompartment: The Lady rescues Rincewind from the Thing by hiding him in her godly cleavage. Played for laughs with Big Sally, who's seen tucking down there a coconut, an egg and a whole sack of flour.

* FetishFuel: Ladies of Negotiable Affection, the Amazon Warrior, the Milkmaid (after she amends her assets) but the icing on the cake must be [[spoiler: The Lady stuffing Rincewind down her front]].

* CoolSword: You have to obtain one which goes "doink". You have to find a dwarven smith to tune it so that it goes "ting!" instead. [[spoiler: Not that you get to use it on the Dragon anyway...]]

* NiceJobBreakingItHero: Act II of the game consists of Rincewind freeing the dragon from the Brotherhood's control- and once free, the dragon decides to take vengeance on the city.

* EverythingIsBetterWithMonkeys: *BASH!* (cue CirclingBirdies) Did you get the number of that donkey cart? (see RunningGag below)
