Skeleton Costume

Easter Eggs

It is possible to get a costume set called Merton’s Bones that gives you the appearance of a skeleton. The pieces of this set are Merton’s Ribcage, Merton’s Shinbones, and Merton’s Skull. Merton also has a weapon in the game, Merton’s Firepoker. Whether or not this is a specific reference to something or just a fun costume is unclear at this point.

Code Sonic

Easter Eggs

If you name your character Code Sonic, your options menu will include the “Super Speed” option that lets you sprint super-fast and also changes your sprinting animation into a roll like Sonic the Hedgehog’s.

This was originally revealed as part of a puzzle, with a code fans deciphered to get instructions about asking the developers about Code Sonic.

Runic Alphabet

Easter Eggs

The runes used in the game are a full runic alphabet that translate to words often in French, but occasionally in English.

Breath of the Wild reference

Easter Eggs

In a purchasable house, you can find an item called “Bread of the Wild.” This bread is a reference to The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild.

Pet Shark

Easter Eggs

It is possible to get a pet crescent shark from any point after the start of the game, as long as the time of day is between 15:50 and 16:00. Once you have the shark, it will float through the air behind you and follow you. This pet was added as a special reward for solving an out-of-game puzzle, and fans worked together on Discord to figure out the puzzle and locate the pet shark.

However, if you don’t want to solve the puzzle, you can use the video guide below to find out how to get the shark right away.

Compass Puzzle and Secret Room

Easter Eggs

The compass puzzle was a long, complex puzzle and the final puzzle given to the community to solve. After being directed to the logo as a clue, which led to the compass idea, fans worked together for months to figure out the puzzle. By solving the puzzles, you will reach a secret room that includes loot and a dancing NPC who was originally a story quest NPC used as a tool during the game’s development.
