Hi ! I'm really interested in easter eggs in games, and I found a couple in TLJ and would love to know more in other games as well! Any eggs that you know of? I'll even replay a game just to see the egg, so tell all!!!

Go here and you'll find several

Eeggs

Egg Heaven

The Discworld

There are so many out there. Black Dahlia has some of the best. All the Lucas Arts funny games are full of them. The Indiana Jones and the IF has great ones. Pandora Directive has a secret room in the pyramid among others and GK3 has a special easter egg key you can access.

Start the hunt today

Gatorlaw to the rescue!! Thanks... I'll be looking these up!!! Aren't these things fun? yeehaw!

I love easter eggs.

I have found more - but many are mentioned at boards that are devoted to just that game. I usually pull a google search for the game name and the word eggs or easter eggs and they'll pop up. I forget what game you meet a ghost in a subway station - It's in Broken Sword 2 (many eggs in those two games) but if you give a chocolate bar to the ghost - you'll get a real treat when you stroll down the abandoned subway line to the left. A secret entrance will appear...and some cool stuff awaits.

I love easter eggs, too.........they are usually so much fun!! thanks for all of us!!!

I love the one in King's Quest 8, where the easter egg is a risque off the wall conversation between your main character and Queen Freesa. The Eeggs is a great site. I just wonder how people come across all these!

I liked the one in Blackstone Chronicles. You could punch in John Saul in the computer database of patients and see what he was admitted for. I believe it said he was released to his real-life wife into her custody. heh

My problem with Easter Eggs is that it's so utterly non-intuitive to find them, that you have to rely on websites for the information, which sort of seems counter-intuitive to the fun of the eggs. Maybe I just don't explore enough in games. But I certainly don't put the donut in my pocket, stand on my head, kiss the rat and cough, which is what it seems like you have to do to uncover these little beasties.

I do love the one in Black Dahlia, when you spin the boy around until he gets irritated.

There two in Exile, that I know of, one in Saav's study in J'nanin (look around the hammock), and one on Atrus' desk in his study in Tomahna. I've heard there are others, but couldn't say where.

Hey!

How about an easter egg on Gameboomers site???

As we all know how awesome this site is, I have any doubt that Bob, the great webmaster, can find some tricky way to install one (or more) of these for the pleasure of all easter egg hunters

And if it is done please let me know some hint about finding the hot spot... (well I had the idea first after all! )

It WOULD be nice if there were a special place where easter eggs in games could be posted on GAMEBOOMERS, especially since I usually don't get to the games until months after they are released and would be able to view the list while I'm still playing the game!

Hey! yeah, an egg on the Gameboomers site WOULD be cool! I know sites do this...check out this one just look at the Egg 2000! logo on the top left, click on the space between the 1st and 2nd zero and see an egg! Appropiate for that egg site! Also, I love looking at eggs, and I always seem to find them too late, a nice list would be great! Oh well... that's alot of work. They are fun aren't they? Thanks for the links Laura!!!

That is a cool idea having an egg on site

I was just thinking that reviews of games should include any eggs if they exist. I will do that from now on. If it hadn't been for this thread, I wouldn't have thought about it.

Hey guys,

I'm editor of The Discworld and have been reading this thread with some interest. Personally, I really like easter eggs in games, but with editing the site simply don't have the time to play each game enough to find them, so, I was thinking that if you guys know of any, if you get in touch with me, I'll post them on the site and that way we should get a rather comprehensive list. You can either leave them on this board which I'll check regularly or email them to my work address which is: ross@thediscworld.co.uk

Let me know what you think,

Ross

what a great idea, Ross..........thanks!! I'm sure you'll have lots of takers!!
