Cut Scenes
As in the other games in the series, a player is awarded with a cut scene (reminiscent of those in Pac-Man and similar arcade games) after every third level; in this game, these are dubbed as "Great Moments in Muncher History". While these scenes are numbered (Act 1, Act 2, etc.), the order they appear in varies from game to game. Once all six have been shown, they begin to repeat themselves (starting with the scene after Level 21). The six scenes are as follows:
- A Muncher is chased by a Reggie across the screen twice, then the Muncher gets in an old-timey automobile, outruns the Troggle, and the Troggle falls down and gives up.
- Two Munchers reenact the story of William Tell.
- A Muncher races a Bashful up a mountain, plants his flag, and sings a song.
- A Muncher prank-calls a Smartie and sings the universal taunting melody commonly associated in the United States with lyrics including "Nanny nanny boo boo", "pitcher's got a big butt", etc.
- A Muncher beats two Troggles in a beauty contest.
- Later releases of the game replaced this cut scene with one in which a Muncher stumbles through his house in the dark and then turns on the light, only to discover that he has broken all of his furniture.
- A Muncher carves his own image into Mount Rushmore.

Famous quotes containing the words cut and/or scenes:
“A woman does not have to make decisions based on the need to survive. She can cut through issues, call shots as she sees them.... Many bad decisions are made by men in government because it is good for them personally to make bad public decisions.”
—Dianne Feinstein (b. 1933)
“From scenes like these old Scotia’s grandeur springs,
That makes her loved at home, revered abroad;
Princes and lords are but the breath of kings,
“An honest man’s the noblest work of God!””
—Robert Burns (1759–1796)
