There exists a rare situation in Adventure where, after being eaten by a dragon, the bat will pick up the dragon, and carry it around the game world with you inside its stomach. This was not an intentional Easter egg or gag, but rather a result of the dragons and bat in Adventure being coded to explore the game world at all times rather than despawning.

Despite Adventure being a highly ambitious title released before the discovery of bank switching, the game had enough free RAM space in its cartridge (15 out of 128 bytes) to fit 3 extra dragons - though Warren Robinett chose not to as he thought the gameplay was fine as is, something he compared to what is now known as game balancing.

During the development of Adventure, Atari higher-ups were initially cautious of such an ambitious project - when they saw the prototype, they unsuccessfully tried to persuade Warren Robinett to rework the game into a tie-in game for the Superman II movie.

Adventure was heavily inspired by Colossal Cave Adventure, a text-based game for many early personal computers.
