** The hard breakbeat track used for the beginning of ''The Loop'', for some. It returns in the Legacy collection as the theme for the 'Break the Loop' menu, where it now represents the act of mastering and subverting the most trap-like part of the complex.

* Sugarwiki/FunnyMoments: In ''Universe'' there's a note at the bottom of the ladder in the chasm[[labelnote:*]]coordinates 613[[/labelnote]]. While quite unnerving due to being vaguely nonsensical, one of the sentences, reading "Get this thing off me! Get it off!!" is very hard not to associate with [[VideoGame/HalfLife1 Black Mesa scientist]] being [[FaceFullOfAlienWingWong humped by a headcrab]]. It shifts the mood from creepy right into hilarious.

* UnintentionallyUnwinnable: In Submachine 10, if you remove the ladder in the dock from the ship and then [[spoiler:teleport back to the Loop using the lighthouse portal while it's still active]], the game is essentially rendered unwinnable, since the player will not be able to leave the ship. It has been referred to as an unofficial bad ending by some players. This was later remedied in the free, non-HD version of the game: The player can now pull a new, unique lever inside the ship, which will correctly position the lower ladder and enable access to the dock.

* SequelDifficultySpike: Each game can be described to be more challenging than the last, but as a result of ''10'' being bigger than the first nine games combined, paired with extremely complicated puzzles and more disorienting navigation, it is much harder than any of the previous games.
