Tunnel Network: Difference between revisions

For its high tech equivalent, see [[Portal Network]]. Occasionally related to [[Absurdly Spacious Sewer]]. A [[Secret Underground Passage]] sometimes leads to this, but is technically a different trope. This refers specifically to a massive underground network of tunnels, not a single tunnel used for a singular purpose.

* The Geonosians in ''[[Star Wars]] Clone Wars''.

* In ''[[Real Genius]]'', steam tunnels are how Lazlo gets around Pacific Tech unseen—they are modeled on the very real tunnels beneath Caltech.

* In ''[[Good Omens]]'', there's a sequence where various New Age beliefs start coming true, of which one is the conspiracy theory that the Secret Masters of the World live beneath the Earth and travel around through an extensive tunnel system. This results in things like gardening programs offering tips on what to do if a Secret Master of the World pops up in the middle of your flower bed.

* ''[[Dungeons & Dragons]]''. The Drow can move along underground passageways and emerge at various points on the surface.
