* VideoGame3DLeap: This game creates the Blasterpals with CGI, an upgrade that did not carry over to most subsequent entries. And even here, they revert to 2D when they're inside a MiniGame.

* VillainExitStageLeft: At the end of the game, Dr. Minus is thwarted, but he escapes to swear vengeance. As with the Trash Alien in the previous game, this never really amounted to anything in subsequent games. The only time Dr. Minus appears after ''Lost City'' is a cameo in ''VideoGame/MegaMathBlaster'', in which he is shown in a jail cell.

''Math Blaster Episode 2: Secret of the Lost City'' is an EdutainmentGame in the ''[[VideoGame/BlasterSeries Blaster]]'' series. It is the sequel to ''VideoGame/MathBlasterInSearchOfSpot''.

While searching for the Lost City, the Blasterpals are shot down by the evil Dr. Minus, who is trying to take over the galaxy. But as luck would have it, their rocket ship crash-lands right next to the Lost City itself, which might just contain a secret that will stop Dr. Minus' plans.

This game was later remade as ''VideoGame/MathBlasterAges912''.
