* [[Interface Screw]] - one of the spells Taranis casts on you inverts the mouse controls.
* [[Knight Templar]] - Geraint.
* [[Lost Forever]] - There are a few items in chapters 1 and 2 that cannot be retrieved once you end those chapters. There's also several sidequest objectives that can only be done early in the game. Plus, a lot of the inventory objects that can be applied to multiple puzzles are one-use items.
* [[Mistaken for Murderer]]
* [[Moon Logic Puzzle]] - The game's creators definitely tried to avert this, but many instances do crop up, particularly [[That One Puzzle|the infamous murder mystery]]. Some people consider this a [[Guide Dang It]], but the information is all in the game, and through elimination you can figure out that the assassin is really {{spoiler|Cailte, in case you wondered}}.
Line 50:
** There are at least two to ''[[Discworld]]''. You can find "Twurp's Peerage" in the monastery's library, and Maeldun describes cider as a drink made of apples. "Well, mostly apples."
** Near the castle, you meet [[The Wonderful Wizard of Oz|a talking scarecrow.]] {{spoiler|You can give him a brain, and afterward he will name himself Baum.}}
** If you try to enter a stump, a message will appear, requiring you to insert [[The Secret of Monkey Island|disk 23]], followed by 'Oops, wrong game.' Also, on the monk's bed there is a book called '[[The Secret of Monkey Island|The Mystery of Ape Atoll]],' (no, not [[RunescapeRuneScape|THAT]] Ape Atoll) which involves swordfighting, dark magic and the undead.
* [[Spiritual Successor]] - Of the ''[[King's Quest]]'' series. It was even originally conceived as a [[Fan Sequel]] to the aforementioned franchise.
* [[The Dev Team Thinks of Everything]] - You need to buy a flute, and the most obvious ways for getting money are {{spoiler|gambling with the goblins, using the wishing well, or selling the sorcerer's figurine}}. In the unlikely event that you miss the opportunity for all of those, it may seem like you're stuck... but you can still {{spoiler|find a pot of gold under the rainbow; if you've already lost ''that'', you can sell Morholt's crystal.}}
* [[The Fair Folk]]
* [[True Love's Kiss]] - required, of course, to wake the sleeping princess. {{spoiler|And no, you're not her true love.}}
* [[Unwinnable]] - One trait of old Sierra adventures that [[Averted Trope|wasn't adopted]] by the game's creators.
* [[World of Ham]] - Although there is no voice acting, the dialogue is bombastic, grandiose and full of [[Ye Olde Butcherede Englishe]]. Very often [[Lampshaded]].
* [[Ye Olde Butcherede Englishe]] - [[The Fair Folk|the fairies talk like this]]. Blossom the changeling also tries to, but isn't very good at it. It's also [[Subverted]] and [[Lampshaded]] many, many times, particularly in this [[Easter Egg]]:
