* TheComputerIsACheatingBastard: In the Battle Of Gods mini-game, there are situations where if you kill the AI but they would get a healing power-up at the end of the turn, they'll survive despite technically having 0 HP. Word of advice: don't assume that strategy will work for you.

** There are hominoids and dinosaurs existing together in the same time/place.

** {{Prehistoria}}: Technically the whole game (its set in the time of Panagea), but Rock Island is most fitting (it has a Tyrannosaurus Rex).

** "Ep 35: Double Rainbow All the Way Across the Sky" is a reference to the [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OQSNhk5ICTI Double Rainbow Meme]]. The Pygmies even shout qoutes from the video when they see them. In fact, their voices for those quotes are actually Paul "Yosemite Bear" Vasquez's voice (the guy from the video), except digitally doctored.
