The fair in Nothingham is full of cameos and references.
Screen 3:
- The sad fellow sitting against the fence at the bottom right, named Lance Notalot, says "I wanted to be a hero, but my quest for glory had a tragic end.", referring to Quest for Glory 1: So You Want to Be a Hero.
- At the left side of the pharmacist sits Christy Marx, the designer of the Conquests series. Talk to her and, after congratulating you for finding her, she starts messing around with your game points (but in the end leaving them as they were).
- the man in orange on the right side above the fence is animator Jerry Moore. He says "Listen to what part of this text says, 'Move thy rodent and as thy rodent moves, so moves the symbol thou hast chosen. Bring thy chosen symbol to rest upon a person or object, then clicketh thy finder upon the rodent to bring forth the response of the symbol'. Can you say what it means, yeoman?"
- the group of gamblers on top of the screen are the bulk of the game programmers. There is Mistress Goff (Cynthia Goff), Robert of Fischbach (Bob Fischbach), Sir Brian De Hughes (Brian Hughes), Robert of Mallory (Robert Mallory), and Todd Powers.
- The woman top center in the blue dress, Mistress Baker, listening to the doomsayer, is programmer Vana Baker.
