Trivia

  • two of the three voices that provided the spoken passages on the German version are by voice actors Benjamin Völz and Franziska Pigulla (Oliver Rohrbeck is the third voice featured). Völz and Pigulla are well-known in German-speaking countries as the German dubbing voices for David Duchovny and Gillian Anderson in The X-Files. Both voice actors are also featured once more on the German version of Weltreise.
