* HarderThanHard: If you though the game was hard, Gentleman Mode makes the game even harder. Enemies hit harder and take more punishment while you have less time in Puzzle Mode due to a faster Puzzle Meter. [[ThisIsGonnaSuck You'll need every last upgrade...]]
* HardModePerks: In Gentlemen Mode, the puzzle meter drains much faster and the puzzle itself raises much quicker, which potentially makes enemy blocks appear more easier. This would be a total disadvantage, but considering you can easily build puzzle meter energy back through a very quick and easy melee combo on an enemy, you can chain together combos much faster and build up the Super Meter really fast. Which means easier use of special weapons and potentially ''even more'' [[SuperMode Tea]] [[InvincibilityPowerUp Time]].

* InterfaceScrew: What separates the bosses from the mini-bosses is that the former can interfere with the puzzle world itself. For example, Lance Banson can summon an anchor that will pull the pieces up if you don't do anything about it.

* NewGamePlus: Gentleman Mode, a rare example of New Game Plus actually making the game ''harder''. You have less time to spend in Puzzle Mode and the puzzle raises itself at a much faster rate. Have fun dealing with the enemies returning as [[DemonicSpider Demonic Spiders]]!

* RecurringBoss: Weasleby takes a very [[VideoGame/SonicTheHedgehog Robotnik]]-styled approach and is fought no less than five times throughout the game as a mini-boss. [[spoiler: He's even the boss of the Puzzle Realm and again in Tealand.]]

** This game felt a bit like a homage to [[ComicBook/DisneyDucksComicUniverse Scrooge McDuck]] and WesternAnimation/DuckTales with original "human" (cartoonish) characters in place of the Ducks. Henry Hatsworth is a rich elderly adventurer with more skill than men a third his age who goes around the world searching for valuable treasures, much like Scrooge (the only difference being that he's British). The main antagonist (until the "twist" comes along) is Weasleby, a foppish and arrogant dandy with glasses who probably inherited all his money, much like Scrooge villain John D. Rockerduck (also known as Robax). It's interesting that Scrooge always wears a top hat and Rockerduck a bowler hat, while for Hatsworth and Weasleby their headgear is reversed. Surely coincidence, but there's a similarity there.
