Some of the unused dialogue listed in the main page is actually used in the game. At the very end of Reggie's Castle Ruins, in the prisoners' room, you can talk with the prisoners by approaching them and pressing Circle or Square. (it's one of those buttons)

This video shows that you can talk with them: (at 2:44:11) https://youtu.be/Zyx4vrCbxlE?t=9851

The two characters at the ground cell say the line "Defeat Reggie and we will be free!".

And the rabbit (Prisoner, just a generic name) locked at the cell above says "Please defeat Reggie, I've been locked up here for years!".

Also, the shark in the ground cell is called Sylvester and the kangaroo beside him is called Waldo. That's why the game data file lists their names (and the "icebox", more on that later) along with Prisoner and the "Defeat Reggie" dialogue text.


In this video of the unused music track "Sylvester", the video poster Orylen has an interesting theory about those two characters in the cell:

"Presumably, Sylvester was supposed to be a fifth Dark Knight, and Waldo, the kangaroo who resides in the same cell as Sylvester, is the knight of the kingdom. There is some unused dialogue for the game that says Waldo and Kingsley are friends, but was removed."

A theory of mine: Sylvester and Waldo were planned to be two more Dark Knights that you were supposed to defeat and rescue, in two more kingdoms. Maybe the CRAB and SVEN unused tracks were to be music for the "normal bosses" of these two kingdoms, but they all were ultimately scrapped.


And another oddity: I think the rabbit prisoner kinda looks like Kingsley's original rabbit design... http://www.cheerfulmadness.com/kingsley_page1.htm

If the rabbit model has the carrot drawing in his shirt, like the early Kingsley sketches, then that model must really be "rabbit Kingsley".

The "icebox"

This video by Te Oxysoft shows a glitch you can use to enter the Refrigerator (called "icebox") cell.

You can actually interact with it! The icebox opens, revealing the talking carrot and celery.

They say the line "BOOOO!" that's listed with the unused dialogue in the main page.

Rabbit Kingsley in the game?

The rabbit prisoner at Reggie's Castle Ruins really looks like the early Kingsley sketches, from the era when he was a rabbit.
