* UglyCute: The Happylanders can fall into this territory. When [[Website/YouTube YouTuber]] Kai Horton [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KpAgf-JAJi0 reviewed the X-mas Edition]] in 2022, he described them as "weird, tiny creatures that look much more monstrous than the animals you're supposed to be avoiding".

** The ending of the X-mas Edition. Santa says he should reward the dog for saving Christmas, and exits the screen to the right. A few seconds later, and a giant present with the words "MERRY XMAS" falls on top of the dog, who lets out the same sound he makes when the player gets a Game Over.

* AccidentalInnuendo: As an old man explains at the beginning of the game, the player makes the creatures of Happyland follow them by touching them, which comes across as much more sinister than intended to an adult than an innocent child.

* ThatOneLevel: "Manic Mines 2" is generally considered to be the most difficult level in the X-mas Edition besides the final level. The player must guide ''twenty-four'' Happylanders to safety to unlock the exit, much of the ground is covered in black ice[[labelnote:Definition]]A thin, transparent layer of ice that is all but invisible to the naked eye[[/labelnote]], and at the bottom of the level is a massive spike pit, and the only way to get across it is to jump across many narrow, icy platforms. A saving grace is that the player can jump straight up while sliding on ice to regain control, [[GuideDangIt which no old man explains]].

** Similarly, if the player saves all the Happylanders in a level, all enemies will [[MidasTouch turn into gold coins]], which unlocks a [[BonusStage bonusroom]] after completing the level if the player collects them all. However, if the player collects all the coins, but dies before they reach the exit (usually by touching {{spikes|OfDoom}}), then all the items will respawn... ''except'' the gold coins, locking the player out of the bonusroom for that level.

** Dying causes all items in a level to respawn. This is usually a good thing, as it lets the player potentially get a life back[[labelnote:How?]]By collecting 250 items[[/labelnote]]. However, in the X-mas Edition, most levels have five blue spheres which are used to unlock a password after completing a level, so if the player dies, they have to collect the spheres all over again.

* CultClassic: It's not nearly as well-known as ''VideoGame/IcyTower'', but is remembered fondly by those who grew up playing it in the late [[TheNineties 1990s]]–early [[TurnOfTheMillennium 2000s]].
* SugarWiki/FunnyMoments:
** It's rather BlackComedy, but the old man at the beginning of the final level of the X-mas Edition--"Tops of Terror 3"--says, "Make sure you do not fall into this chasm. It will probably hurt you.", as if he's not entirely certain that falling into what's essentially a [[BottomlessPits Bottomless Pit]] will kill the PlayerCharacter. No points for guessing [[TooDumbToLive what happens if you try to confirm his suspicion]].
