Saw a re-run of this Futurama episode a few weeks ago, saw the blue key above a door, and that graphic of the key has been driving me NUTS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I couldn't remember where it was from, but I used to play that game for hours as a kid. I remember that the blue key was always in the same spot in the maze, but the other keys moved around and those dumb dragons would eat you. Thanks again! Now I can sleep! Thank God I found your post!

It is from adventure, I can't tell you how long that has been bugging me. I knew it was from an old old game, and even though the episode commentary refers to doom, thats only the message on the door, not the key itself! Thanks Rob you are a genius!
