In Galleon Galaxy, one cage doesn't open at all, and at last the Pagie ''does'' escape through the bars, driving Laylee furious.

After a book they found is sucked up by the evil Hivory Towers Corporation, best friends Yooka (a chameleon) and Laylee (a bat) enter their headquarters and find themselves fighting their way through the vast company grounds and the levels they contain in order to reassemble the book's lost pages. The game intentionally shares many gameplay elements with the ''Banjo-Kazooie'' series, but the most notable difference is that its collectible PlotCoupon, Pagies, can not only be used to unlock more worlds and thus reach the FinalBoss, but also ''expand'' each world; thus making them bigger and adding new challenges, which in turn grants access to even more collectibles, including other Pagies.

* CameraScrew: The Classic camera mode attempts to automatically reorient and follow the protagonists, to sometimes dubious effect during difficult platforming challenges. Part of the large patch included a new entirely-manual camera control option that only responds to the player's right-stick movement and nothing else.
