* [[Art Shift]]: The previous game used video-captured actors for the animation. ''King's Quest VII'' switched to a Disney/Don Bluth-inspired art style instead.
* [[Ate the Spoon]]: Rosella gathers ingredients for a potion to change her back to human form. One of the ingredients (used to stir the potion) is a silver spoon. After the potion's been mixed, the only thing left of it is a melted lump of silver. This being King's Quest, it still has a use later on.
* [[Award Bait Song]]: "Land Beyond Dreams"
* [[All Animation Is Disney]]: Despite being 2-D animated, the game itself has been bashed on by gamers as well as the reviewers for criticizing it for its art style mimicking Disney. It seems to be heading towards [[Don Bluth]] and [[The Swan Princess|Richard Rich's]] work.
* [[Big No]]: Rosella, after being trapped in a coffin underground. Then, when Rosella escapes from said coffin {{spoiler|along with the real Troll King}}, Malicia reacts with a [[Big No]].
* [[Brainwashed and Crazy]]: The {{spoiler|Fake}} Troll King working for Malicia. Turns out, he's {{spoiler|her nephew Edgar... the same fellow from ''[[King's Quest IV]]''!}}
Line 22:
* [[Cute Monster Girl]]: Troll!Rosella.
* [[Dark Is Not Evil]]: Ooga Booga is a dangerous and scary place, but some of its inhabitants like the Gravedigger, Dr. Cadaver, the Black Hound, and {{spoiler|Lord Tsepish}} aren't so bad after all.
* [[Dude in Distress]]: Most of the male characters in the game. Attis, Dr. Cadaver, Lord Tsepish (cursed as a headless horseman), the real Troll King, and {{spoiler|Edgar}}.
* [[Evil Laugh]]: Malicia.
* [[The Fair Folk]]: [[Averted Trope]] - there are both malevolent ''and'' benevolent fairies.
Line 46:
* [[Man-Eating Plant]]
* [[The Maze]]: The desert
* [[Mister Muffykins]]: Malicia's mutt "Cuddles." A sillier, ''talking'' variety is Archduke le Yip Yap.
** Archduke ''Fifi'' le Yip Yap, to give him his full name. And if you don't think that's just the best name in the history of everything ever...
* [[Multiple Endings]]: It is possible to win the game without rescuing Edgar, but it results in the "Bad Ending".
Line 63:
* [[Suffer the Slings]]: Rosella has to ward off a werebear by slinging a lump of silver at him.
* [[Terms of Endangerment]]: At one point, Malicia calls Rosella "my dear princess".
* [[Took a Level Inin Badass]]: Valanice was a very passive character in previous games -- her biggest roles were [[Damsel in Distress|getting rescued]] in [[King's Quest II|KQII]] and telling Alexander to find Cassima in the intro of [[King's Quest VI|KQVI]]. Here, she's out to save her daughter and adventuring with the best of them.
* [[Unwinnable]]: Averted, which is downright bizarre for a Sierra game. Even if you forgot to get the flower in an early chapter that's needed at the end, an identical one is up for grabs at the end.
* [[Voice of the Legion]]: The Boogeyman.
