** For most of the Amazon natives, who are presumably not unfamiliar with the Gregorian calendar, "what is today's date" is not offered as an option in their DialogueTree. An exception is the native woman helping Isabel Godin, who replies, "today is the second day since I found this white woman." (Isabel Godin herself will tell you that it's 1769.)

* SinisterStingrays: Like the electric eel, keeping a stingray when you catch one will lead to a painful consequence. A stingray will occasionally sting you if you get capsized in the first game.

* AnachronismStew: A few cases in the first game, where at some stops you can meet people from two different eras. Most notably, at the Napo river you can meet both Pedro de Teixeira on his 1638 expedition, and Francisco de Orellana from 1542. The sequels mitigated this to an extent, although see MisplacedVegetation for one detail they missed.

** Averted with Henry Ford. Although the game makes it clear that Fordlandia is failing and the native workers don't appreciate American culture being forced on them, Ford is portrayed as basically well-intentioned. [[Administrivia/RuleOfCautiousEditingJudgment We will not be saying anything about whether this portrayal is accurate.]]

** If you failed to obtain the necessary item required to complete the level, you will actually have an alternative way to do it. Unfortunately, it will be much harder - especially if you did not get the incan artifact so you can give it to Amaru. (See above.)

* VideoGameCrueltyPunishment:
** Sell out the tribe, and you get a nice big WhatTheHellPlayer speech from the Jaguar.
** More generically, you must get an Incan artifact from some Spanish men who are dying of starvation - if you opt not to do this (For whatever reason), then Amaru will not tell you the way to Vilcabamba and you will have to find it yourself. It's much ''much'' harder if you don't know where it is. (Which is actually TruthInTelevision - reaching Vilcabamba is ''not'' easy.)
