Ideas and Themes
The game was titled Discworld: The Trouble With Dragons while it was in development.
There is a subtle easter egg in the game that is activated by double clicking on the sheep in Nanny Ogg's back yard. Many more secrets can be found throughout the game. In another easter egg, Rincewind states that he "want to be the first person in a game to say fuck". This may be a homage to the eulogy delivered at Graham Chapman's funeral where John Cleese seized the opportunity to become “the first person ever at a British memorial service to say 'fuck'.” A similar, albeit censored line is also hidden in the sequel.

“Young children...are often uninterested in conversation It is not that they don’t have ideas and feelings, or need to express them to others It is simply that as one eight-year-old boy once told me, “Talking is okay, but I don’t like to do it all the time the way grown-ups do; I guess you have to develop the habit.””
—Robert Coles (20th century)
“Heroes, whatever high ideas we may have of them, are mortal and not divine. We are all as God made us and many of us much worse.”
—John Osborne (1929–1994)
“In economics, we borrowed from the Bourbons; in foreign policy, we drew on themes fashioned by the nomad warriors of the Eurasian steppes. In spiritual matters, we emulated the braying intolerance of our archenemies, the Shi’ite fundamentalists.”
—Barbara Ehrenreich (b. 1941)
