Eggerland Mystery
Eggerland Mystery is the first game in the series and, as such, is the introduction of the formula used in many of the series' games. It plays out in a linear fashion, meaning that when Lolo clears a room he proceeds directly to his next challenge without having a choice about where he will go next (which is not the case in some of the other games in the series where there are multiple doors in each room). The game has 105 Rounds that must be cleared in order to complete the game and the difficulty increases with each round that is completed.

Five monsters only are featured in this game: Snakey, Gol, Skull, Alma and Medusa. The remaining three will be introduced in the second title.

Eggerland 2
Eggerland 2 was the first game to be called a grid game, as indicated in the screenshot to the right, where instead of having simply one door to leave the room there are multiple doors for Lolo (the player) to choose from. To help with this conundrum, Lolo will eventually acquire a map to help him keep track of where he has been, but some doors may require a key to open.

This second game in the series did not feature a Map Construction mode to allow players to build their own custom maps.

Eggerland 2 introduces the three monsters that were not present in the first installment of the series (Rocky, Don Medusa and Leeper). It also introduces different terrain types (grass and deserts) and the "rock breaking" power.

Eggerland: Revival of the Labyrinth
The predecessor of this game was non-linear and allowed Lolo (the player) to choose to go in any direction that he wished to go in. Revival of the Labyrinth, instead, is far more linear, and most rooms only have two doors: one entrance and one exit.

Similar to the key that is used to access new rooms of the dungeon, the raft makes its second debut in the series as a room-completion prize which allows Lolo entry to the water courses in the south-west region of the game.

Differences from Eggerland 2 and its Famicom Disk System port include the absence of time-based levels with special keys and Guardians/Gods as their prizes. Instead, special keys are given out for defeating dead-end rooms, i.e. rooms connected to only one other room in the dungeon. Rather than the small key used to enter new rooms, the player receives one of the game's nine special keys. Special keys are used to open five dobule doorways that a single key cannot open, and to access four rooms closed off from the main dungeon map to obtain pieces of a large King Egger tablet, required for access to the final levels of the game.

Revival of the Labyrinth also has special inventory items that Lolo can collect along the way, such as a map and a "Magic Bell". The map retains its usage from Eggerland 2.

The Magic Bell is a new item: it rings in four specific rooms of the castle that contain entrances to special dungeons. If completed, such mini-dungeons award the player with one of the four Guardian Gods needed to finish the final rooms of the game, in a similar fashion to the Guardians from Eggerland 2. These entrances to the God dungeons are not revealed like they were in the previous game, where the player had to move one specific Emerald Frame after the room's completion. Here the player has to align the Emerald Framers in a particular pattern to reveal the entrance. Alongside the Gods, Lolo can also encounter Buddhas that give out information in certain empty rooms.
