'''Inadvertent Usefulness:''' None. This is one of the most irritating issues when playing LEGO Island, particularly on modern systems. So much so that [[LEGO Island Rebuilder]] contains a patch to address it. | '''Inadvertent Usefulness:''' None.

=== Glitching and crashing when trying to exit the game === | |||
'''Description:''' When you try to exit LEGO Island normally, the Infomaniac bounces into the center of the screen, two LEGO bricks appear, and he asks the player to confirm they want to exit (clicking the green brick to leave and the red brick to stay). For unknown reasons, it's fairly easy to glitch this sequence, particularly on newer computers, and often times the game simply ends up crashing with an accompanying "buzzing" sound before the user can select an option. This often inadvertently results in lost save data, since the game only saves upon clicking the green brick and confirming exit. If it doesn't crash, it can result in a chunk of sound that continues to loop until the game exits. | |||
'''Steps to recreate:''' There are many ways to trigger this, but continuously clicking the exit door or pressing the Esc key in the Information Center will usually do it. | |||
'''Inadvertent Usefulness:''' The ease of triggering and exploiting this glitch has led to popular memes in the community, including [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ulOQeC8p_GU "Are You Ready To Le?"] (a glitched loop of the Infomaniac's question "Are you ready to leave LEGO Island?"). | |||
