* {{Magitech}}: The two don't cross much in the game. But it's established that magic exists and that science is a new, upcoming thing. It's dismissed by the magic community as being pointless nonsense.

What follows in a German-style fairy tale with a twist.
Anna soon discovers that she has the power of telekinesis. She also discovers Ben, the soul of a boy trapped in a teddy bear. Together, the two manage to escape Winfriede and go searching for her grandpa's cure. This leads down a long and winding path, through a town, a dungeon and finally a royal castle. But, Anna must beware, because Winfriede is always right behind her.

!! ''Anna's Quest'' contains examples of:

* BalefulPolymorph: Winfriede looks easily twice as old as she should.
* BlockPuzzle: Retraining the mail pigeon works on a similar principle.
* DoesNotKnowHisOwnStrength: Anna has trouble controlling her telekinesis at first.
* {{Foreshadowing}}: In spades; many characters and elements from the game come back later on.
* TheGuardsMustBeCrazy: Without his halting spear, the castle guard feels he has no choice but to let Anna walk right by him.
* {{Magitech}}: The two don't cross much in the game. But it's established that magic exists and that science is a new, upcoming thing. It's dismissed by the magic community as being pointless nonsense.
* RunningGag: Mispronouncing "telekinesis".
* ScrewDestiny: [[spoiler: Winfriede's]] attempt to do this does not go well at all.
* ShoutOut: Many.
** To previous Daedalic games:
*** The posters on the castle wall feature characters including [[{{VideoGame/Deponia}} Rufus]] and [[VideoGame/EdnaAndHarveyTheBreakout Droggelbecher]].
*** Many of the antiques in the shop in Wunderhorn.
*** The achievement "Clever reference #451" (The idea was good. But Anna's arms were too short.) is a reference to one of the narrator's catchphrases in ''[[VideoGame/EdnaAndHarveyHarveysNewEyes Harvey's New Eyes]]''.
** To Creator/TheBrothersGrimm:
*** There's a pair of brothers at the Voigt School named Jakob and Wilhelm.
*** Jorinde and Joringel also appear.
*** TheBremenTownMusicians show up in Wunderhorn.
*** {{Cinderella}} (and her magic tree) can be found at the castle.
** Literature/ReynardTheFox is a character.
* StartOfDarkness: Chapter 6 [[spoiler: has you playing as a young Winfriede, through the circumstances that led up to her being cursed with her "wicked witch" status -- making this overlap with ProtagonistJourneyToVillain]].
* TheVoiceless: Jorinde hasn't spoken since the time she almost drowned.
* YouCantFightFate: People in the story believe in Wyrd, the concept that your early actions -- and more importantly, morality -- will shape the rest of your life, whether you like it or not.
