--> ''(cut to Timmy, Cosmo and Wanda in Fairy Court)''

--> '''Country Boy:''' Yeah, and I woulda gotten away with it too, if'n it weren't for that ding dang darn Cleft!

* AnAesop:
** Wanda tries to [[InvokedTrope invoke]] this at the end of "A Badge Too Far", but keeps getting interrupted by Cosmo, who just [[ComicallyMissingThePoint lists a bunch of camping tips.]]
** She does this at the end of the game as well, this time successfully.

* BigBad:
** Vicky is the main villain in the console versions, as Timmy has to recover Da Rules book from her and solve the problems Vicky has caused by inadvertently making wishes.
** The PC version has Juandissimo as the antagonist, using clouds outside of Timmy's bedroom window to trick Timmy into wishing Da Rules book away, therefore getting Cosmo and Wanda in trouble and risking banishment back to Fairy Academy, where Juandissimo will attempt to get Wanda back from Cosmo.

* EarlyBirdCameo: The PC version of the game features a level where Timmy has to avoid a younger-aged version of Vicky and Tootie's mom, named Nicky. The character eventually appeared on the show in her adult form, alongside her unnamed husband, in the "Channel Chasers" movie, though her depiction there is inconsistent with what this game establishes (Nicky here is very similar in appearance to Vicky's five-year-old self shown in "The Switch Glitch", but in the actual show looks closer to what Tootie might look like as an adult).

* FinalBoss: The console, Game Boy Advance and PC versions all have a different final boss.
** In the console versions, the final battle has Vicky transformed into a dragon and Timmy having to lure her into striking certain panels to play a recording of Vicky's voice making the wish needed to undo all the damages she's caused.
** The final boss in the Game Boy Advance version is a monster with Vicky's face that bears some resemblance to Kraid from ''Franchise/{{Metroid}}'' and is fought more like a conventional boss fight.
** The PC version has the final confrontation consist of a boundary ball match between Timmy and Juandissimo.

* ShoutOut:
** In "Chinless Blunder", in one instance of chasing a star, Wanda will say, "[[ComicBook/{{Wolverine}} Hey, bub! Timmy's the best he is at what he does!]]"
** In the Gilded Arches portion of the same level, there are numerous references to old Disco songs, one of which Cosmo tries to sing before it becomes evident that [[SomethingSomethingLeonardBernstein he doesn't know the lyrics other than the title of the song.]][-[[note]]The songs in question are "Disco Inferno" by the Trammps, "Blame It on the Boogie" by the Jacksons, and "Tragedy" by the Bee Gees.[[/note]]-]
** The SlippySlideyIceWorld in "The Vicky Virus" is called "[[Franchise/BattlestarGalactica Battlestar Antarctica]]".
** In the spaceship portion of "Crash Landing" has Cosmo reference Neil Armstrong as he sees a star leap across a huge gap.
--> '''Cosmo:''' One giant leap... for a star!
** In the opening scene of the PC version when Timmy complains about his homework, Cosmo says "That's the spirit Timmy, [[Music/PinkFloyd We don't need no education, We don't need no thought control!"]].
** The Ancient Greece section of "Time Warped" ends with Wanda explaining that they're in Ancient Greece, not Ancient Canada. Then this WaxingLyrical happens.
-->'''Cosmo:''' Yeah! Greece! [[{{Film/Grease}} Greece is the word - it's got groove and it's got meaning!]]

* WombLevel: The first level in the PC version is set inside Vicky's nose.

The game begins with Cosmo and Wanda waking Timmy up and trying to get him out of bed. His parents then announce that they're going away for a [[BlatantLies "seminar weekend"]], which means Vicky has come over to babysit. Timmy starts panicking and tells them to "go stall her while I think of something." Cosmo and Wanda tell them that per Da Rules, they can't be seen by anyone but him. Without thinking, Timmy then wishes they didn't have to follow Da Rules, which Cosmo grants. Big mistake. The book ends up in Vicky's hands, giving her Cosmo and Wanda's wish power. Needless to say, they get in big trouble for this, and are sent to Fairy Court to be persecuted by [[DrillSergeantNasty Jorgen Von Strangle]]. After being found guilty, they are given 49 and a half hours to find every page of Da Rules. If they fail, they lose their fairy license forever. As extra punishment, Jorgen confiscates their wands and replaces them with training wands to do the work with.

* BrainwashedAndCrazy: The Cremé Puffs in "A Badge Too Far".

* DeepImmersionGaming[=/=]WinToExit: "The Vicky Virus" has Vicky wish Timmy, Chester and AJ into a video game. The only way out is to beat the final boss.

* HappyDance[=/=]VictoryPose: Whenever Timmy steps on a wishing circle with five stars.

* HubLevel: Timmy's house serves as one.

* HypnotizeTheCaptive: In "A Badge Too Far", the Cream Puffs have suddenly turned against the Squirrely Scouts and are capturing them. Wanda recalls Vicky claiming the Cream Puffs are better and wishing she had the badges to prove it; as it turns out, Vicky has hypnotized the Cream Puffs with the magical merit badges she wished for.

* IronicName[=/=]NonindicativeName: You probably first thought this was a game about Timmy somehow getting the ability to not have to follow the rule book and making rule breaking wishes that lead to disaster right? No, quite the opposite. Timmy has to ''get back'' the pages of the rule book to keep Cosmo and Wanda while using less powerful wands that can only do relatively small things.

* OhCrap: Wanda in the opening cutscene when she, Cosmo and Timmy are sent to Fairy court.

* BalefulPolymorph: Timmy is turned into a dog in "A Dog's Life".

* CorruptHick: Country Boy in "Chinless Blunder".

--> '''Wanda:''' Hopefully we can fix this before Jorgen finds out and we end up-

* IdleAnimation: If you put the controller down for a bit, Timmy will look around, do some tough guy pose, yawn, sit down and read a Crimson Chin comic, yawn again, and finally fall asleep.

* EarlyBirdCameo: The PC version of the game features a level where Timmy has to avoid a younger-aged version of Vicky and Tootie's mom, named Nicky. The character eventually appeared on the show in her adult form, alongside her unnamed husband, in the "Channel Chasers" movie, though her depiction there is consistent with what this game establishes (Nicky here is very similar in appearance to Vicky's five-year-old self shown in "The Switch Glitch", but in the actual show looks closer to what Tootie might look like as an adult).

* AnnouncerChatter: Cosmo and Wanda will often do this when spotting a wish star, coming across an enemy, or something particular in the level. There's even a button command that has them do this on cue.

* EverythingsBetterWithMonkeys: [[InvertedTrope Inverted]] in "The Vicky Virus". The monkeys there are mooks trying to hurt you.

* ArtisticLicenseHistory: An InUniverse example; this is the setup to "Time Warped". Timmy comes across Vicky's history homework, and [[BullyingADragon taunts her about how wrong everything is]] (and her [[YouMakeMeSic misspelling of "distinctive"]]). This prompts her to wish that Timmy back in time to her version of history, where he must SetRightWhatOnceWentWrong.

* DiscoDan: Gilded Arches in "Chinless Blunder". He has a FunnyAfro, wears a gold chain and platform shoes, says things like "You cannot prevail against the power of disco!", has mooks that dance, ''and'' his stage BGM is a pastiche of popular Disco music from the late 70's (particularly Music/{{Chic}}).
