Easter Eggs

Easter Eggs

Wait until the mime starts following you in Jackson Square. When he starts to follow you, talk (chat) to him. You'll tell him to 'stop following' you or something. Do this about 20 times, and watch Gabriel lose his cool and smack him one! Thanks to Heath Smith.

At Tulane on the bulletin board in the conference room is a notice of a conference with octagenarian Laura Bow-Dorian, the heroine of the Colonel's Bequest and the Dagger of Amon Ra. Thanks to GeeKay3.

If you go and talk to Madame Cazaunoux before dressing as the priest one of your speaking options is to say "Landshark!" and Madame Cazaunoux will say that you are no Bill Murray. (It pays homage to the old Saturday Night Live skit staring Bill Murray). Thanks to Natalie.

At the start of "Day 8" when you leave Schloss Ritter in the car, hold down the space bar as soon as this scene appears. Te vehicle will have an unfortunate "mishap". By the way, make sure you save your game before you do this, as this particular easter egg will cause the game to end prematurely, you fiend!

One of the many charms of GK1 is the incredible richness of the environment that the game creates. How many games can ellicit a response when roving the pickup icon over somebody's derrier.

If Gabriel operates the wishing stump in the museum more than three times, you start to hear some pretty lewd comments about Grace, Malia and "rubbing". Oo-er madam...

Gabriel will let his imagination run away with him (again) if you happen to look at the rug on the floor...

Operating the ladder in the shop will start of one of those razor sharp dialogues that Grace seems to enjoy. Probably because Gabriel always crashes and burns every time...

The right confessional is, of course, the secret entrance to the voodoo cartel. The left one, however, is a real confessional. Operate the stand and Gabe will confess some of his sins, which include just how many women he's slept with, and how he feels about not paying Grace. Gabriel also confesses about how he treats Mosely bad and that he's had impure thoughts about a woman he met...

In the shop touch Gracie! Gabriel will briefly describe his frustrations...

Most people wait until Day 3 when Mosely tells Gabe about the interview with Crash to return the badge, at which time Mosely seriously gets in Gabe's case about "borrowing" his badge. Well, go to the station on Day 2 after talking with Malia (and getting thrown out). Mosely will say how he had a photo with the Chief. Mosely knows he used it to impress a woman, but Gabriel doesn't apologize due to an incident involving Mosely "borrowing" Gabe's bike while it was in front of the store...
