* SpecialGuest: Boardy is one InUniverse, as an explanation for questions that require imagery.

* CasualDangerDialogue: For some questions the Announcer travels back in time. One of these times is back to the Titanic, where the Narrator cherfully explains its about to hit the iceberg.

Ever wanted to win big? Say, a prize that's a moai ripped straight from Easter Island, the Harkinian Appliances patented Dinner Blaster, or a mandatory 6 month vacation to Brazil? Oddly specific, but if that's how you roll, be sure to try your hand at Shovelware's Brain Game! With a spectacular host, several children as cam operators, a single special guest and several questions, will you prove you've got the biggest brain and win any of those oddly specific prizes?

* {{Expy}}: Commander Crust is one to Captain Crunch.
** Same goes for Garfunkel, who's an obvious Garfield riff. The comic strip prize also mentions a [[ComicStrip/DennisTheMenace Constance the Nusciance]].

* SuddenGameplayChange: Whenever the Cantaloupe butts in, everything shifts into a Donkey Kong clone for awhile. The minigame itself is playable on the "Shovelware's Barrel Game" arcade machine backstage.
* TakeThat: One of the prizes is a [=DIY=] obby kit with just the lava squares and strips and spawnplates. And the manufacturers are called [=L.A.Z.Y.=]
** An option for the question about the extinction of the dinosaurs is "the first gender reveal party".

* SurpisinglyRealisticOutcome: It's probably not the brightest idea trying to lift a moai statue to present it as a prize. Or rip a stop sign from it's pole in a high-traffic area.
