Added DiffLines:

* ObviousRulePatch: In Toontown Online and Rewritten, the Sound gag track is seen as ComplacentGamingSyndrome, to the point where players will get kicked out of groups for being soundless. In Corporate Clash, using Sound gags two turns in a row will give the Winded status effect, which reduces the strength of Sound gags by 50%.

Added DiffLines:

* OverlyLongGag: Major Player's rhythm minigame starts with waves of 3, 5, and 7 notes. The second time he uses it, it comes in waves of 4, 6, and... ''[[BaitAndSwitch 24]]''. Memorizing the 24-note sequence and inputting it within the five second time limit is [[FailureIsTheOnlyOption practically impossible]].

Added DiffLines:

* AntiPoopSocking: Defeating a boss for the first time in a day earns you a Sweetener reward, with harder bosses awarding more. However, there is a hard cap on how many of these you can get in a week.


Added DiffLines:

* DiminishingReturnsForBalance: The Sound gag is a HerdHittingAttack that deals a good amount of damage. Since using Sound doesn't require much strategy and players would often use solely Sound to breeze through everything in ''VideoGame/ToontownOnline'', it comes with a buff and debuff here. Using Sound once will increase your damage output by 8% the next turn, but if you choose to use it again, your Sound is debuffed to half its regular damage for a few turns.


Added DiffLines:

* PlayEveryDay: The game has a few daily features or incentives to come back every day.
** Different days of the week increase the amount of experience or rewards you earn in certain departments. For example, you earn extra Jellybeans on Wednesdays and more gag experience on Fridays.
** Every day, you are given a new Daily Task you can complete for PremiumCurrency.
** Each boss has a Sweetener that gives you bonus rewards when you beat them. Sweeteners reset every day, to unincentivize you from grinding the same boss over and over again. [[AntiPoopSocking There's also a weekly limit to how many Sweetener rewards you can earn.]]

* {{Homage}}: The Salty Spit-Toon sidequest is essentially an adaptation of the ''WesternAnimation/SpongeBobSquarePants'' episode "[[Recap/SpongeBobSquarePantsS3E8NoWeeniesAllowedSquilliamReturns No Weenies Allowed]]", where the player must prove their toughness to a bouncer named Reg, complete with some dialogue that directly from the original episode.

* StatusEffects: Many kinds of buffs and debuffs exist for Toons and Cogs alike. For example, using Toon-Up will grant a 10% accuracy buff to every Toon that turn, and using Sound will increase your damage output by 8% the turn after.

* LethalJokeItem: The Squirting Flower is the level 1 gag for the Squirt track, and loses its relevance very early in the game. However, it comes around to being useful later on: you can use it to trigger Soak and allow for powerful Zap combos when higher level Squirt would kill and break the chain.

* DevelopersForesight: Gagsoline Oil Refineries is an important building within in the Toontown Central taskline, as Toons are initially locked outside of it. Attempting to get inside early by teleporting to a friend who can enter displays a unique bit of dialogue, prompting the player to investigate it sometime.

Added DiffLines:

* WakeUpCallBoss: Prethinker is pretty easy for a {{Superboss}}, but he ''is'' the first one you're expected to fight. The next, Rainmaker, is a massive step up in difficulty. She has a lot of phases with their own effects that make the fight harder and can attack many times in one turn.

* ExperienceBooster: Depending on the day of the week, the game will boost your experience in certain fields, like activities on Tuesday and gag farming on Friday. Alternatively, you can purchase experience boosters with PremiumCurrency.


Added DiffLines:

* PremiumCurrency: Gumballs are much more rare than Jellybeans. The main way to get them is by doing your [[PlayEveryDay Daily Tasks]], but you also can also earn them by fighting bosses or doing Kudos tasks after you've already hit Rank 10. You can spend Gumballs on exclusive cosmetics and limited-time {{Experience Booster}}s.


Added DiffLines:

* SkillPointReset: You are given Training Points that you can invest into getting and prestiging Gag tracks, earning more points as you progress through the game. At any time, you can drop a gag track and earn back the points you spent on it, then re-invest them into something else. There is no detriment to it, as the experience you earned on that track will remain if you invest the points back into it.

* GrannyClassic: Parodied with Mouthpiece. Since her head is modeled after an old wall telephone ([[ItKindOfLooksLikeAFace the ones that look like they have a face]]), she's portrayed as an old-timey grandmother who knits, bakes cookies, and asks why you haven't called her. Notably, she's one of the less hostile managers.

** Moe Zart quotes Music/SmashMouth's "All Star" in one of his tasks.

* DiscountCard: Completing certain Kudos tasks will grant you a discount on buying gags in that playground: 15% at rank 3, 30% at rank 6, and 50% at rank 9.


Added DiffLines:

* FishingMinigame: As with the original game, you can cast your rod in fishing ponds and see what fish you can catch. There are 70 unique species in total, and you need to buy new rods to catch them all.

* {{Sidequest}}: Each playground contains around six side quests you can do at any time, starting from when you reach it in the main storyline. One sidequest will always give you [[ZipMode fast travel]] to that playground, while the rest offer cosmetic bonuses.
* SimonSaysMiniGame: One Trolley game involves an NPC doing a sequence of dance moves, which you have to repeat. More moves are added on to the sequence as the minigame goes on. Major Player can also weaponize this same mechanic as one of his attacks.

* LevelLimiter: Because the toontask system got a complete overhaul from the base game with laff boost actually granted from a regular level up system, players were able to choose to have their toon be stuck at a certain amount of laff, even being able to have a toon with only one laff point. However, the ability to make such a toon was removed. There is intent to bring the feature back though.

Added DiffLines:

* HealingBoss: Street manager Bellringer can ring his bell to heal himself and his allies. The catch is that enemies can be healed ''past'' their maximum HP, and if you destroy an overhealed Cog in one turn, it will explode and badly damage everyone in the battle.


Added DiffLines:

* InterfaceScrew: During Rainmaker's Fog, you can't see the levels and stats of the Cogs you're fighting.


Added DiffLines:

* WhackAMonster: Deep Diver will hide underwater between turns, making her unable to be attacked. If there's a Cog present, she'll promote it and you'll have to take it down before she comes back up. After being vulnerable for a turn, she dives back down, and the process repeats.

* ApologeticAttacker: The Toons go after [[spoiler:Rainmaker because of her causing weather instability in Barnacle Boatyard, which she wasn't even aware was a problem]]. She actually wants to make friends with you, and only fights back because ''you'' provoked first. Her last words before the fight starts are "Sigh, I really don't want to do this."


Added DiffLines:

* {{Superboss}}: Each playground has its own Kudos Manager. These can only be fought by reaching Kudos Rank 10 for the playground by doing extra tasks after you've beaten the main ones there.

* ContinuityNod: In Toontown Central, one of the main tasks has you deliver clown car parts to Loony Louis, and after fishing up tires for him, he tells you that his packages are filled with more car parts, leading to your Toon turning their back on him before he can finish his sentence. Later on, in a Kudos task for Daffodil Gardens, you fish up and deliver packages to Lisa, who also exclaims that her packages are filled with more clown parts and mentions how she's related to Loony Louis.

** A Drowsy Dreamland HQ officer, Dozy, mentions having a dream where Bossbots turned into clowns when defeated, which is in reference to an early concept for what would happen when Suits were defeated in battle.

There are also plenty of [[ShoutOut references to other books]], like ''[[Literature/IfYouGiveAMouseACookie If You Give An Oldman Some Cheese]]'', ''[[Literature/TheMazeRunner The Maze Game Runner]]'', and ''[[Literature/WhereTheWildThingsAre Where The Toony Things Are]]''
