** There's a bottle described as "Green. Originally one of a set of ten."
** The caves include a [[Batman|Gotham City]]-themed section.
* [[Take That]]: Played with. The "rude word" on the wall of the Debris Room varies between platforms.
** In the [[ZX Spectrum]] version, it is "COMMODORE", in the [[Commodore 64]] version, it's "SPECTRUM". The Spectrum and C64 were major rivals in the '80s UK.
** In the [[Amstrad CPC|CPC]] version, it's "Sugar". This probably refers to Amstrad's founder, (now Sir) Alan Sugar. "Sugar" is/was also a common substitute swear word in UK schools.
* [[A Worldwide Punomenon]]: It seems as if the authors included every pun (and other reasonably clean joke) an entire class full of schoolkids could think of.
** There's a can marked "Cheers" that contains [[Canned Laughter|canned cheering]].
