History VideoGame / AdventuresOfLolo

* DropTheHammer: One of the special items in the games, used for breaking rocks.

''The Adventures of Lolo'' is a trilogy of BlockPuzzle games released on the NES, and part of Creator/HalLaboratory's ''Eggerland'' series (which began its life in Japan on the UsefulNotes/{{MSX}} computer system). A beast known as the Great Devil (King Egger) has kidnapped Princess Lala and, in typical bad guy fashion, imprisoned her at the top of a DeathTrap and monster-laden tower. It's usually up to Lolo to solve the puzzles with and climb to the top and rescue her. The third game in the trilogy allows you to play as either character.

* HundredPercentCompletion: Outright necessary to finish ''Eggerland 2'' and ''Revival of the Labyrinth''- you need five keys and four helper characters to access and complete King Egger's rooms respectfully and the main dungeon is designed in a way that you're required to complete every room.

* GuideDangIt: If you block an enemy's spawn point with something other than yourself (which will just get you killed), they'll get {{Tele Frag}}ged when they respawn. But certain enemies will just respawn in a preset location instead. Certain puzzles require you to pull off the latter, sometimes twice in a row. Good luck finding out when (it doesn't help that the games don't even ''tell'' you you can do this until the sixth one).

* HopelessBossFight: The first fight with King Egger in ''Adventures of Lolo 2'' (Japan) and in ''Adventures of Lolo 3'' (USA).

* PurelyAestheticGender: In the third game, you have the option of playing as either Lolo or Lala. Gameplay-wise, there is absolutely no difference between them. However, Grandpa of the tutorial house shows a clear favouritism towards Lala, offering her helpful tips while merely scolding Lolo if he has trouble clearing the stages.

* RegionalBonus: The Japanese version of ''Adventures of Lolo'' for the Game Boy had only 50 levels. The European version increased this to 144, and added a tutorial, extra story, and Super Game Boy support.

Interestingly, despite Hal being a subsidiary of Nintendo, Hal owns the Lolo series independently and completely, unlike some of their more popular titles.

* ThirteenIsUnlucky: In the third game, the character you're playing as is captured by King Egger at the end of the thirteenth level.

* ExcitedShowTitle: ''Revival! Eggerland''.

* BalefulPolymorph: With Magic Shots, Lolo can zap enemies and turn them into eggs to be used for various purposes.

* HundredPercentCompletion: Outright necessary to finish ''Eggerland 2'' and ''Revival of the Labrynth''- you need five keys and four helper characters to access and complete King Egger's rooms respectfully and the main dungeon is designed in a way that you're required to complete every room.

* SaveThePrincess: All the games excluding ''Mystery'', ''Departure to Creation'', and ''Lolo no Daibouken/Adventures of Lolo''. The third [=NES=] ''Lolo'' game potentially [[InvertedTrope inverts]] this if you go into the HopelessBossFight with King Egger as Lolo, which [[DistressedDude causes him to get captured instead]].
* SecretLevel: In Adventures of Lolo 2, there are four hidden challenging levels called ''The Pro Level''. They can only be accessed by entering the passwords: PROA, PROB, PROC, and PROD.

* SpellMyNameWithAnS: The armadillo enemies have been referred to as Alma, Arma, and Armma. Lolo and Lala has also been referred to as Roro and Rara in-game before, but this could simply be a case of [[JapaneseRanguage l and r mixups.]]

* EasterEgg: In the password screen for Adventures of Lolo 3, Different password codes could cause characters walk over the screen.

* GuideDangIt: If you block an enemy's spawn point with something other than yourself (which will just get you killed,) they'll get {{Tele Frag}}ged when they respawn. But certain enemies will just respawn in a preset location instead. Certain puzzles require you to pull off the latter, sometimes twice in a row. Good luck finding out when (it doesn't help that the games don't even ''tell'' you you can do this until the sixth one).

* {{Expy}}: Characters named Lololo and Lalala (who look like Lolo and Lala, only smaller) appear as minor antagonists in some ''Franchise/{{Kirby}}'' games (another series made by Hal Laboratory), and as his friends in the anime series ''Anime/KirbyRightBackAtYa''. Then ''VideoGame/KirbysDreamLand2'' introduces a MiniBoss named Blocky who resembles Rocky.
** In the English dub, They were renamed as Fololo and Falala.
