Trivia
edit
- The display with Tim and Crunchy in the 5th year gallery is a reference to the cover of RuneScape: The Official Handbook, an introductory book to RuneScape released by Tracey West in 2007.
- The museum's exit, labelled as an old passageway, is a homage to the Main Menu.
- Upon release of the museum during the 2018 Birthday event, the sixth year displays were under construction, with Art, Dave, and Gene seen building the displays. A year later with the release of the 2019 Birthday event, construction of the displays were completed and the builders were removed.
- The museum's lower level was added as part of the game's 10 year anniversary. During the event, a set of community goals for global contributions toward the Old School Museum expansion was added; these were completed in around 15 hours after the event launched.
- The vampyric statue located in the 2020-2021 section of the lower level is usable by players, making it the only altar in Falador.
