* ADayInTheLimelight: This game marks Leslie's most prominent appearance in the series. The kids almost always split into co-ed teams, and you're nearly always with the team that has Joni, whether she be paired with Santiago or Owen. ''6th Grade'' is the only time you spend the entire game with the team that has Leslie on it. (Not counting ''4th grade'').

* ArtisticLicenseBiology: The whole concept of an underground plant civilization would seem to ignore the fact that plants need sunlight for photosynthesis. Yes, these are sentient, talking plants, but they are still green plants, and the entire reason that plants are green is because of the chlorophyll used in photosynthesis. Weirdly, some of the educational content actually discusses photosynthesis, but [[GameplayAndStorySegregation this apparently doesn't apply to the story's logic]].

* GenderNeutralWriting: [[spoiler:Prior to the reveal that Miss Rose is the leader of the plants, the plant leader is never referred to with pronouns.]]

* CityWithNoName: The [=ClueFinders'=] hometown is never referred to by name. Mostly, it's just called, "the town." ''The Incredible Toy Store Adventure!'' would later establish that they live in UsefulNotes/SanFrancisco, but there's no hint of that here. If anything, this game gives it a vague EverytownAmerica vibe.

* {{Foreshadowing}}: [[spoiler:Before you "officially" get the clue about the plant kingdom being polluted, the "Recipe for Disaster" activity has you feeding toxic chemicals to a plant guard. If you click on Leslie during this activity, she'll comment on how strange it is that these chemicals are down here.]]

Fortunately, there's a friendly plant named Ficus, who serves as your ExpositionFairy. He tells you that you need to sneak into the throne room in order to gain an audience with the plant leader. To do this, you have to build bridges over three BottomlessPits. Wouldn'tcha know it, this involves a FetchQuest in which you collect the bridge planks that are scattered across the plant empire. Once you do make it into the throne room, you'll have further tasks to complete in order to stop the invasion and save the town.

* BeneathTheEarth: The setting, occupied by what amount to non-alien PlantAliens. Visitors beware--it's also a FisherKingdom of the "physical modification" type, slow-acting but thought to be permanent.

This time, danger has come to the kids' own hometown. While retrieving a frisbee from Miss Rose's overgrown garden, Joni and Santiago are suddenly swallowed up by the earth. Leslie, Owen, and [=LapTrap=] journey underground to find a whole civilization of sentient plants... and they're preparing to go to war with the surface!

* ReasonableAuthorityFigure: The plant queen, aka [[spoiler:Miss Rose, is revealed to be this. While capturing humans as part of her invasion, she spares the Cluefinders from being turned into plants and explains that her people are actually dying. She took the identity of Miss Rose to find a peaceful solution and feels that invasion is the only way to save the plant people. When the Cluefinders say they'll help her stop the pollution if she halts the invasion, Miss Rose agrees. When taking Joni as a hostage to ensure their cooperation, and with Joni's permission, she makes sure to reverse the plant transformation when the Cluefinders stop the pollution]].

* {{Transflormation}}: What happens to Joni while held captive.
