* UnderusedGameMechanic: The insecto-robot has a total of ten forms, but the robot is only useful three times in the whole game. Half of its forms don't even need to be used, but the game still forces you to unlock them all to participate in the trials to unlock the eye of Shiva.

Added DiffLines:

* HeartwarmingInHindsight: In ''Secret Album'', Tom is trapped inside the album with the treasure. In ''Mysterious Island'', we learn about another treasure of Uncle Albert, which turns out to be [[spoiler:Tom's egg. So in a sense, Tom himself ''was'' part of the treasure all along.]]
* HilariousInHindsight: One of the fictional animals in ''Uncle Albert's Magical Album'' (1998) is a yellow ladybug with blue dots connected by lines. ''VideoGame/PokemonSwordAndShield'' (2019) would later introduce Dottler, a Pokémon who looks like a yellow ladybug whose dots turn blue when it uses its powers and which are connected by lines.
* ScrappyMechanic: The insecto-robot's transformation remote needs to be recharged through a mini-game when it's overused. All it does is make the game artificially longer in an annoying way.
* ThatOnePuzzle: ''Fabulous Voyage'' has an infamous puzzle where the player must place three toads on three different spots. Since picking up and placing a toad makes it jump toward a random location, most players place the toads on the middle on the page and pray that they jump in the right direction. While you can actually control the toads' movements by clicking on them to make them jump in the opposite direction of the cursor, the game ''never'' tells you this and the page's design has a circle in the middle, reinforcing the idea that you must place the toads in the middle so they can randomly jump where they should.
* UnconventionalLearningExperience: Putting an animal on the scanner reveals real life information about said animal that aren't useful for the games. Given that these games are marketed toward children, it may teach them alot about animal biology.
* UnderusedGameMechanic: The insecto-robot has a total of ten forms, but the robot is only useful three times in the whole game. Half of its forms don't even need to be used, but the game still forces you to unlock them all to participate in the trials to unlock the eye of Shiva.
