Easter Eggs (Doom & Destiny)

Easter eggs are direct and indirect references to real-life once popular topics such as: movies, phrases, memes, cliches, games and more.

The game parodies some cliche aspects of RPGs but, at the same time, pays homage to some of these real-life concepts in a way. The title of the game itself is quite obviously a parody of Dungeons & Dragons, a theme that is often referenced and made fun of in Doom & Destiny.

Other parodied themes range from the Legend of Zelda to the Lord of the Rings series. The themes parodied are often video games or movies that were popular during the 1980s, 1990s and the early 2000s.
