Line 31:
* [[AI Is a Crapshoot]]: Ruffleberg outfitted {{spoiler|Carltron}} with an intelligence chip so he would play chess with him. [[Psycho Prototype|Bad idea]].
* [[Analogy Backfire]]: Before facing [[Gladiator Games|Vigor the Indestructible]], the Boy is reminded of a fight scene ''Dirt, Swords, Sweat and Togas'':
{{quote| I think [[Oh Crap|the hero got pummeled]] in that picture."}}
* [[Attack of the 50-Foot Whatever]]: Verminator.
* [[Badass Normal]]: The main character. No, [[Fridge Brilliance|stop and think about it for a little while]]: this is a young man who has been transported to an unknown world, who has no real skill in weaponry to begin with, but reacts to every threat to his progress through this unknown world by CLUBBING IT TO DEATH WITH A SEVERED HUMAN FEMUR.
Line 45:
* [[Boss Rush]]: The final area is one, in lieu of a final dungeon.
* [[Brick Joke]]: In Antiqua, you find a boulder suspiciously similar to the ones you levitated in Prehistoria. Do the same here, and Tiny comes out and demonstrates his superior strength by picking up the boulder and throwing it away. Far away. When you inevitably end up at the southern end of the desert again, the boulder will land and form a bridge for you to cross. Lampshaded by the Boy.
{{quote| '''Boy''': Wow! That boulder was flying for a long time!}}
* [[Broken Bridge]]: There is an actual broken bridge in Crustacia cutting off access to the west bank of the river. Only the dog can jump across. There is also a raised drawbridge in Gothica cutting off direct access to Ebon Keep.
* {{spoiler|[[The Butler Did It]]}}: As anyone who's read old crime novels would expect. [[The Untwist|Seriously]].
Line 98:
* [[Hope Spot]]: Thanks to {{spoiler|Prehistoria's volcano}}, the heroes are catapulted high into the air. Luckily, they fall into an upended turtle shell that floats them gently downstream. {{spoiler|And then dumps them over a waterfall.}}
* [[Hurricane of Puns]]
{{quote| '''Boy:''' ''(after fighting monsters that emerge from stained-glass windows)'' "Those guys were a [[Getting Crap Past the Radar|pane in the glass]]."<br />
"Or Evermore will be nevermore [[Shaped Like Itself|forever more]]!" }}
* [[Inevitable Tournament]]
{{quote| '''Announcer:''' "And the challenger!...some loser with a stick!" ''(Then the crowd hurls garbage at the player...)''}}
** [[The Dev Team Thinks of Everything|The announcer says (slighty) different things depending of the weapon you have equipped]]<ref>"femur" if you've got the Bone Crusher, or "claw" if you're using the Spider's Claw</ref>.
** The Boy lampshades the ridiculousness of being in the tournament before it begins.
{{quote| '''Boy''': I'm about to go up against a bloodthirsty gladiator armed with a bone, a claw, and a stick! This isn't going to end well.}}
* [[Inevitable Waterfall]]: What first greets you after {{spoiler|escaping Prehistoria}}.
* [[Instant Plunder, Just Add Pirates]]
* [[I Don't Like the Sound of That Place]]: The '''Desert of Doom'''.
* [[Ironic Nickname]]: Tiny the Barbarian.
{{quote| '''The Boy:''' You know, it's ironic that you're called "Tiny" as you're actually very large.<br />
'''Tiny:''' [[Hulk Speak|Yes. Tiny likes irony]]. }}
* [[Kleptomaniac Hero]]: There was one chest in which there was a subversion; you would get an alchemy spell and a new place to buy ingredients if you walked up to it and didn't open it. It was fair game ''after'' said transaction took place, though.
