Line 17:
* [[Let's Play]]: [[Pushing Up Roses]] and her companion [[Paw Dugan]] tackle this adventure with innuendoes all around!
** There's also a hilarious one by [[Zero Punctuation|Yahtzee Croshaw]] and his partner {{spoiler|(not gay)}} Gabriel.
*** It's not with Gabriel; it's with a chimp that's been trained to imitate speech. But it certainly ''sounds'' like Gabriel, doesn't it?
* [[Locked Door]]: A couple.
* [[Mad Scientist]]
Line 25 ⟶ 26:
* [[Schmuck Bait]]: When you pick up the whistle in the first game, the game asks, "I wonder what the whistle does?". But if you blow it right away and go into the next room, {{spoiler|you get killed by the dog}}. However, the whistle actually ''does'' have an important, positive use in the game.
* [[Shout-Out]]: The old man in the basement/cave asks you several questions relating to ''[[Lord of the Rings]]'', ''[[The Chronicles of Narnia]]'' and ''[[The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy]]''. Thankfully, if you never saw them, then [[Read the Freaking Manual|the help text will tell you the answers]].
** The opening theme music is a mishmash of both the "''[[Dragnet]]'' March" and the synthesizer lick from Boz Scaggs' "Lido Shuffle".
** The killer dog is accompanied by a brief clip of "(How Much Is) That Doggie in the Window?".
** In the sequel, Hugo's girlfriend Penelope saves [[Doctor Who|The Doctor]] from a Dalek, confusing the hell out of a lot of stateside players who didn't get the BBC America channel (in fact, a few strategy guides treat it as a [[Non Sequitur Scene]]).
* [[Trial and Error Gameplay]]: Typically for its genre and era, experimenting with items has a very high probability of resulting in death.
