* [[Non Sequitur Scene]]: The courtroom scene, where justice takes the form of a gameshow, with Rob defending Hobbins. Seriously, where the hell did that come from?
* [[Crowning Moment of Funny]]: Too many to list. The fact that the humour turns up in the oddest of places adds to the effect.

* [[Crowning Music of Awesome]]: There are several definite [[Ear Worm|Earworms]] which you'll undoubtedly start humming along to, but the very best music is found on the CD32 version, where the titlescreen (also "LINCspace") music with its synthesised horn section is so catchy you might not want to start the game until it's looped a few dozen times.

* [[Epileptic Trees]]: Played for laughs, usually. Rob's crackpot theories on the nature of the game world are priceless.

* [[Magnificent Bastard]]: Gallagher, without a doubt. He turns from a borderline nutjob spouting riddles and playing cards to a man with a deadly agenda.

* [[Moral Event Horizon]]: Reich nuking Rob's entire tribe at the start of the game. Even when you see his fate, you can't feel for the guy.

* [[Squick]]: The more you know about LINC, the more you'll be grossed out by it. Even Rob is disgusted by many of the things he sees, and doesn't mind telling you about it.

* [[This Is Your Premise on Drugs]]: Take one internet, mix it with equal parts virtual reality and acid flashbacks then serve. Then you'll be close to what LINCspace is, what with the giant sentry eyeballs and coloured ying yang pieces which act as passwords. And some other stuff that is even more batshit insane.
