Line 21:
* 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!
* The bolstered list of Steam Achivements released July 19 are pretty much ALL shout-outs. See [https://web.archive.org/web/20141001163857/http://www.dredmorwiki.com/wiki/Achievements the wiki] for details.
* And in the fungi, there's the [[Super Mario Bros.|Plumber's Agaric]] (providing a strength buff), and [[Niccolo Machiavelli|The Prince]] ("A regal mushroom better feared than loved.").
* If you happen to encounter a [[Game Breaking Bug]] that makes the game crash (Most infamously the, fortunately fixed, save-game incompatibility of the latest patches), you get an achievement called "Suddenly the dungeon collapses!", which was a possible event in [[Nethack]].
