• The Shard Arctic Heist! may be a reference to The Penguin, one of the villains of Batman.
• The penguin from Shard Arctic Heist! may also be a reference to Feathers McGraw from Wallace and Gromit's "The Wrong Trousers".
• The Starite mission Finicky Patrons is heavily randomized, with 81 possible combinations of patrons visiting the museum.
• The gnome in the mission Finicky Patrons accepts art of Zombies. This is a reference to the game Plants Vs. Zombies, a game the Scribblenauts series makes several references to.
