* NintendoHard: Hacks of the game are so hard you have to exploit GoodBadBugs to complete them. Even though ''Jet Set Willy 2'' is completable, it is still a very hard game, requiring pixel-perfect jumping, and you only have eight lives (no extra lives in this game).

* SequelDifficutlySpike: It's even harder than ''Manic Miner'', as it adds complexity by introducing free-roaming and the screens are no longer isolated, self-contained levels to be completed linearly one by one.

!!YMMV tropes in Jet Set Willy:



* ThatOneLevel: The words "The Banyan Tree" strike fear in the hearts of old-time gamers to this day. "The Nightmare Room" (just to the east of "The Banyan Tree") also [[IncrediblyLamePun gave players the Willies]]. The worst part is that [[spoiler:there is absolutely no reason to traverse "Banyan Tree". The left hand side goes nowhere, climbing the right side isn't an issue in the bug-fixed version, and you can just go the long way round if you're desperate to get there.]]

* EarWorm: ''[[Theatre/FiddlerOnTheRoof If I Were a Rich Man]]''; it doesn't help that the tune plays whenever you are playing unless you turn the sound down (or turn the music off).
** And the other version uses ''In The Hall Of The Mountain King''.
** And the [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AZikGMNLT-o Amstrad/MSX]] version.
** The [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Rdh4PO7aT68 Atari 800]] version is an original song (until it starts playing Music/{{Queen}} about four minutes in), but quite catchy nonetheless.

** The [[ExcusePlot plot]] is that ordinarily she would, but the party left the place in such a state that she went on strike.
