** To get to [[BonusBoss Mother Ratzinsky]] in the first game, you have to fight through FIVE LEVELS full of [[GoddamnBats those GODDAMN RATS]]. You gain access to the quest pretty early on, which can make some of the rats on the later levels pretty difficult, especially if you're low on poison heals.

* DumbassHasAPoint: The villagers planning a VirginSacrifice to appease the local dragon are presented as stupid. Regarding the possibilities a small town has at hand and various positive reactions of dragons towards occassional sacrifices in the aventurian past and present (like the bond between Smardur and the amazons of Kurkum), it would at very least have been a good plan B.
