Easter eggs
- On the calculator, if the summary's resulting digits are sequential by moving up or down in value by 1 (Example: 123456789 or 987654321), the classic "Flagpole" sound effect with the "End Level" music from Super Mario Bros. will play and a Toad will appear, accompanied with fireworks. Depending on how many digits the summary has, the number of fireworks will change. (Example: 9 digits equals 9 fireworks).
- Also, if the summary equals the player's birthday (Example: August 4th (08-04) would be "804"), a text saying "Your Birthday" will be displayed and the "Flagpole" sound effect as well the "End Castle" music will play. Princess Toadstool will appear and three or four fireworks will explode.
