Trivia

On the main menu, there's a creation circle to the bottom left corner. Click on the circle, and creations will appear, click on the creations and they disappear. The maximum is 8 creations. Every time you manage to get 8 creations of the same kind, you get to see a secret sentence/quote. 8 kinds of creations total, 8 easter eggs, enjoy :)
