Line 18:
* The "[[My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic|My Little Anvil Junior Smithing Kit]]" speaks for itself. Smithing IS magic!
* The final skill in the [[Dual-Wielding]] line is blatantly called "[[Overused Copycat Character|Not Drizzt]]".
* The level-up screen says things like "Your princess is in another castle" (misquoting [[Super Mario Bros. (video game)|Super Mario Bros]]), "It is dangerous to go alone! Take this" ([[The Legend of Zelda (video game)|The Legend of Zelda]]), "Power Level 1,370" ([[Dragonball Z]]), "Conan the Librarian" (a [[Film]]/UHF reference, itself a parody of [[Conan the Barbarian]]), and "The Blue Thunder of Furinkan High" (Kuno's self proclaimed moniker in [[Ranma
* One of the higher-tier pieces of headgear you can find is a red, wide-brimmed Vampire Hunter's Hat (identical to the hat worn by the protagonist of [[Hellsing]]), which according to the tooltip "isn't really suited for vampire hunting, but what can you expect out of someone who thinks that spelling 'DRACULA' backwards is a good way to hide their identity?"
* The original title screen, the head at the bottom of the screen, and the graphic design of Floor 3 are all shout outs to [[Doom]]. One of the armours originates from [[Doom]], while equipping a helmet based off [[Quake]] along with it, gives you a "Realms of the id" achievement. One of the audio tracks is also a [[Suspiciously Similar Song]] version of the Level 1 tune from [[Doom]] 2. Continuing the theme is the Interdimensional Axe - it's the [[Quake]] axe!
Line 37:
** Equip the Warhammer as well for the achievement "You Know What Time It Is".
** The second expansion pack's "official" name (You Have To Name The Expansion Pack), as well, is a shout-out to [[You Have to Burn The Rope]] as well as being instructions on using the pack.
* As of 1.0.8, enemies will shout [[The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim|FUS RO DAH]] from time to time.
* One of the enemies' taunts is from [[Clerks]]: "i wasn't even supposed to be here today".
* Finishing the Werediggle skill tree from the DLC nets you 'Team... Jacob?', another [[Twilight]] reference.
Line 60:
* The new expansion pack adds "[[Colossal Cave Adventure|A series of twisty little rooms, all different]]".
* The description for cutoffs (leg armor) says "it's a real medical condition!" referencing ''[[Arrested Development (TV series)|Arrested Development]]'''s Tobias Fünke who suffers from nevernudism and always wears a pair.
* The free DLC gives us [[The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion|Horse Armor]], which is completely useless and incredibly expensive.
* One of the enemy phrases is "his name is Robert Paulson", a direct quote from ''[[Fight Club (film)|Fight Club]]''.
