* DevelopersForesight:
** In one of Chuck Cheddar's paths where you need to blow Syllabus' horn to cause an avalanche, first time players would likely go ask Syllabus what the questions are before they can blow it. But if returning players (or if first time players had a lucky guess on figuring out) find out what the answers are before talking to Sage for the first time, you would get some dialogue from Selma. If the player ask Syllabus first before having the etiquette classes, Selma would ask Sam if he has any questions, and she would respond where the cheese fork is. But if Sam has the class before talking to Syllabus, Selma would just tell where the cheese fork is herself.

Added DiffLines:

* DarkIsNotEvil: A majority of the sweets and junk foods in the game are depicted as nasty pieces of work causing trouble for the island, though not all of them are like that. Florette states that S.S.A.M. is just that party that is causing trouble and if more folks huddle up to it, then it'll more problems. The only sweets Sam meet that are very friendly are Sprinkles (a doughnut), Syllabus (a fortune cookie that likes to know about cheese) and the jelly beans where Bean 47 is located (though this apples to the bean sorting path, as they'll be on strike against the kidney beans).

Like ''VideoGame/PajamaSam2ThunderAndLightningArentSoFrightening'' before it, ''Pajama Sam 3'' is one of the only Humongous games that provides the option to choose which of the puzzle paths can be taken instead of leaving them randomized. This allows you to see all 8 main puzzles and potentially do all 16 path combinations.

Like ''VideoGame/PajamaSam2ThunderAndLightningArentSoFrightening'' before it, ''Pajama Sam 3'' is one of the only Humongous games that provides the option to choose which of the puzzle paths can be taken instead of leaving them randomized. Furthermore, instead of the six preset combinations the game provides (on account of certain routes using the same environmental elements and potentially conflicting with each other), each path for each puzzle can be selected individually. This allows you to see all 8 main puzzles and potentially do all 16 path combinations.

* BrickJoke: At the beginning, Sam is trying to get ready for dinner but it has been spoiled by all the cookies he ate. This is almost completely disregarded once he makes it out of jail, up until the very end, when Florette reminds him.



* CulturalTranslation: The British dub of the game refers to "bon-bons" as "chocolates," as well as changing some foods to more British terms, such as "cookies" becoming "biscuits," "French fries" into "chips," "relish" into "chutney," "hot sauce" into "chili sauce," and some of the cheese types that are mentioned by the moon and Scissors the Plumber.



* DisproportionateRetribution: The penalty for having an overdue library book is 400 dollars a day. When Sam [[LampshadeHanging lampshades]] this, the librarian warns him to just have the book back in time.



* GuideDangIt: Finding the Caramel Pit (where Granny Smyth has a chance of appearing) can be a pain, since the entrance is in the background of the constantly wavy background of the soda dance floor.

Added DiffLines:

* FunWithAcronyms: The sweets' political party is known as S.S.A.M. (Snacks and Sweets Aggressive Majority), which Sam initially mistakes for a misspelling of his name.
* GameplayAndStorySegregation: It's possible for Sam to mention to Florette and Luke that he's helping fetch the remaining delegates, even if he hasn't visited Carrot and General Beetfoot to learn about the Peace Conference.
* GrowlingGut: In the ColdOpen, after eating nineteen boxes of cookies by himself, Sam's mother calls him for dinner, causing his BalloonBelly to lurch and make [[WackySoundEffect cartoon noises]] at the though.
* HookingTheKeys: When Sam is locked in a candy-themed jail cell in the beginning of the game, the key is hung on a hook on the opposite wall. Sam's method of escape combines two versions of this trope: first he knocks the key off the hook by throwing a Bon Bon at it, and then he hooks the key with a giant candy cane once it's on the floor.
* LosingYourHead: If you help Mickey fix his comedy routine, his final joke causes the audience to literally laugh their heads off.
* NonIndicativeName: Chuck Cheddar appears to be a piece of gouda cheese, not cheddar.
* ProducePelting: After a failed failed attempt at comedy, Mickey Hollandaise gets a pumpkin tossed his way.
* PumpkinPerson: Sam can take the pumpkin that gets thrown at Mickey Hollandaise, and wear it on his head as a disguise. The disguise is required to get past the gourds that guard the observatory, who only let other gourds past.
* TestYourStrengthGame: There's a high striker at the carnival at Muscle Beach. Because Sam isn't strong enough to ring the bell from the bottom, he has to come up with his own unique solution. He has to untie the shoes of a balloon vendor, who will give him his balloons while he re-ties his shoes. Sam can then [[{{Balloonacy}} use the balloons to float up to the bell]] and ring it from there.
* WombLevel: Since Mop Top Island is based on Sam's body, several locations are based on organs. Sam ends up entering a giant heart and intestines while looking for the delegates.

''Pajama Sam 3: You Are What You Eat From Your Head To Your Feet'' is a PC AdventureGame and the third main installment in the ''VideoGame/PajamaSam'' franchise. It was made by Creator/HumongousEntertainment and released in 2000.

Sam, trying to get 20 boxtops to obtain a new ''Pajama Man'' figure, has just finished eating 19 boxes of cookies and is about to work on the and final one. However, the cookies in the last box flee to the pantry just as Sam's mom informs the boy that dinner will be soon, so Sam chases after the cookies and finds himself falling into the fantastical Mop Top Island. He quickly learns that the AnthropomophicFood that live on the island will to go to war unless all the delegates for a peace conference are found so they can sort out their differences.

Like ''VideoGame/PajamaSam2ThunderAndLightningArentSoFrightening'' before it, ''Pajama Sam 3'' is one of the only Humongous games that provides the option to choose which puzzle paths can be taken instead of leaving them randomized.

----
!!Tropes:
* AnthropomorphicFood: Since the entire game takes place in a land themed after food, nearly all of the non-playable characters are living food items.
* BalloonBelly: The opening shows Sam with a massive stomach just to emphasize that he did, in fact, eat 19 boxes of cookies.
* CompetitionCouponMadness: The game begins with Sam trying to collect twenty Choc Amok box tops so he can cash them in for a Pajama Man action figure. The box tops serve as the game's CollectionSidequest; if all twenty are collected, the player gets a slightly different ending where Sam gets his action figure.
