** ''Acrobatty Dash'' on Medium & Tough is just cruel and inhumane. On Baby Easy you're given a nice, comfortable seven minutes to go through the acrobat course. On Medium & Tough? ''3 minutes 30 seconds'' and ''two minutes,'' respectively, even though the level itself is ''exactly the same''. Cue much swearing, ripping of hair, and gnashing of teeth.
** ''Meanie Genie'' on Medium & Tough difficulty is PlatformHell ''incarnate'', with jumps requiring precision presses of the A button, lack of depth perception making it hard to tell if you're gonna land on a platform or in the boiling lava, the fact that it goes on damn near ''forever'', [[ArsonMurderAndJaywalking and the background music is annoying to boot]].
** ''Temple Of The Lamp''. On Easy & Medium it's a nice, if boring "collect-the-rubies"-athon. On Tough? An exercise in frustration. For one thing, you have to collect a whopping total of ''70'' rubies. Yeah, that's right, I said ''70''. Secondly, those [[GoddamnedBats goddamn scarab beetles]] are all over the place, serving to make your job even ''harder'' [[FakeDifficulty for no real reason at all]]. Thirdly, most of the rubies are located high on the buildings, forcing you to make even ''more'' perfect A button presses. Thankfully, it's easy to avoid doing this level in favour of other, more fun ones, like ''Rugrat Rug Race''.
