* LikeADuckTakesToWater: Unlike Alan, who had to adjust to the world of 1995 after suffering a future shock, Van Pelt knows exactly what to do in his new environment, such as finding a gun shop to buy bullets for his gun. When told that his choice of bullets went of production in 1903, Van Pelt treats it like a minor inconvenience and immediately orders a replacement weapon, going as far as bribing the gun owner, before resuming his hunt for Alan without missing a single beat.

* GracefulLoser: The game will do everything it can to kill you and stop you from finishing but once you do, it accepts that you have won fair and square and sets things right again, even reversing time back to when the game was started.

Then it rolls back all consequences after you complete it, indicating that it does have some sense of fair play. It even allows its players to be brought back to when the game first started and retain their memories of the timeline, although how positive that last part is is up for debate given how traumatizing the experience is, and the game ''might'' be [[AmbiguousSituation helping with that as well]], as Sarah says she's forgetting the whole thing once the game is over, but clearly remembers the kids and their story in the aftermath.

Dutch last names are not unheard of amongst the British upper classes, especially after William of Orange became king of England. Remember that when a ruler was invited to a foreign land to take up the crown, they would bring hundreds of friends and courtiers with them who would gradually become one with their new nation but often keep their names.
