* ShoutOut: One of the things the Pirate on the Island of the Hattifatners might say to himself is [[VideoGame/TheSecretOfMonkeyIsland "I got this scar on my face during a mighty struggle!"]] Sadly, there's no option to have Snufkin respond "I hope you've learned by now to stop picking your nose."

* FearOfThunder: During the final section, the police officers, [[TheGuardsMustBeCrazy for once]], stand in positions that lead to their field of vision covering the entire area with no way to sneak around them. However, they're also all afraid of thunder, and it just so happens that a very convenient storm came along at the start of this level. Whenever thunder cracks, the guards all get so scared that they basically go blind for a few seconds, giving you time to run past them.

This map shows the island's park on it, even though the Park Keeper has only recently started his work around Moominvalley; Snufkin's reaction to this park indicates that it's his first time seeing it as well, and he's been to the island before.

* BeeAfraid: While stepping through flower patches can get you more [[ExperiencePoints Inspiration]], it may also sometimes disturb a swarm of bees who will attack Snufkin. When that happens, you'll have to use the flute to calm them down. Toffle also suffers from this, being trapped in a tree by some angry bees and needing Snufkin to play his flute so he can get down.

As Snufkin wanders around Moominvalley, he kindly helps out the area's residents while looking for inspiration for his harmonica music. But when he stumbles upon a park, his chaotic side shows as he sneaks past the security guards or distracts them through various means, all while tearing down the signs enforcing the park rules.

* TheGuardsMustBeCrazy: PoliceAreUseless in many ways, especially in how they guard the parks. They'll chase after Snufkin if they see him in the parks, but have a very small line of sight and very little object permanence, as they'll forget about him and go back to their posts if you get out of their sight for a few seconds. They also won't notice that an object is being pushed in front of them to block their vision, and can't hear Snufkin playing his music next to them (but will get distracted by any other sound, including the sound of his drum being carried through a pipe).
