History VideoGame / LARRYAndTheGNOMES

* ShoutOut: You can find the [[Franchise/KingdomHearts Keyblade]] and [[VideoGame/WorldOfWarcraft Frostmourne]] among other weapons.
** Not to mention [[Franchise/StarWars a lightsaber]], [[VideoGame/FinalFantasyVII Cloud's Buster Sword]], [[Literature/LordOfTheRings Sting]], [[Franchise/TheLegendOfZelda the Master Sword]], [[VideoGame/GodOfWar one of Kratos' blades]], plus the sword of Auron the Paladin (from Jazza's own game ''Paladin'').

* TacticalSuicideBoss: the Gnome Mage would be almost impossible to defeat if he didn't [[spoiler:summon those shadow gnomes that drop health pickups and are great for rage farming.]]

* AwesomeYetImpractical: Some of the cooler-looking heavy weapons, like [[{{Warcraft 3}} Frostmourne]] for example. Smaller weapons deal less damage per hit, but their speed more than compensates for that, allowing a much better damage output in the end. Good luck getting a high enough damage output to kill the Gnome King with a heavy weapon.

* ShoutOut: You can find the [[KingdomHearts Keyblade]] and [[WorldOfWarcraft Frostmourne]] among other weapons.

* GroundPound: Both the Boar Rider's mount and the Gnome King can cause earthquakes with their sheer weight. The first's quake has a large area and must be jumped over. The second's is confined to a small area, but deals massive damage, and also causes rocks to collapse all around the arena.

* MagicMissile: The main attack of the Mage boss and the Mage mooks is to rapid-fire magic bolts out of their staves. Like the elemental weapons, this comes in various flavors - magic (deals damage), poison (deals damage and additional damage over time), and frost (deals damage and slows down). Not fire though, oddly enough. The Mage boss can cast every type, while the mooks are limited to one. If Larry picks up a slain mage's staff, he too can fire magic bolts.

* MagicStaff: Used to fire the aforementioned Magic Missiles.

* NoSell: If you picked up an icy weapon in hopes of turning the Gnome King's already slow strikes completely nonthreatening, you'll be unpleasantly surprized when you find out that slowing effects don't even last a second on him.

''Larry and the Gnomes'' is an adventure-brawler flash game which can be found on {{Newgrounds}}.

This Game contains examples of:

* BadAss: Larry.

* YouHaveFailedMe: The Man of the Flames threatens to pull this on the Gnome King if he keeps failing. [[AvertedTrope He doesn't get to]], since Larry is the one who ends up killing the King.

** The Freak is partially this - it's essential to jump over his charge when he uses it.

* BossArenaIdiocy: the Gnome King conveniently keeps a bunch of health-restoring items outside his very room, and the Freak's battle happens in an arena where the spectators throw fruits at you of which the Freak is apparently very fond of. While not necessary to beat the boss, the Boar Rider's battle happens next to a pair of trees that can be beaten for powerups.

* GameBreaker: though they don't exactly break the game, fire-enchanted weapons are probably the most effective of all weapons by the massive damage they deal.

* TheArchmage: the first boss seems to be this, as he refers to himself as "''the'' Mage of the Gnomes", implying that he is the most powerful of them all. Indeed all later gnome mages are [[SquishyWizard a lot weaker]].

* NoSell: if you picked up an icy weapon in hopes of turning the Gnome King's already slow strikes completely nonthreatening, you'll be unpleasantly surprized when you find out that slowing effects don't even last a second on him.

* RushBoss: The purple Freak has the least number of health points, but if he lands a hit, you're finished.

* SquishyWizard: gnome mages play it straight, but the Mage Boss averts it and has quite a lot of health.

* UnstoppableRage: You can go into a berserker rage which allows you to kill almost everything in one hit while sparing you from any damage.

* TheUnchosenOne: As shown in the web series, Larry was actually chosen by the EvilChancellor of the kingdom, who specifically chose the most pathetic-looking person he saw.

** Not to mention [[StarWars a lightsaber]], [[FinalFantasy Cloud's Buster Sword]], [[LordOfTheRings Sting]], [[TheLegendOfZelda the Master Sword]], [[GodOfWar one of Kratos' blades]], plus the sword of Auron the Paladin (from Jazza's own game ''Paladin'').

* FlunkyBoss: the Gnome Mage occasionally summons a large horde of fairly weak shadow gnomes to attack you. This spell can be taken advantage of in two ways: first it provides opportunity to hit him while he's channeling, second the summoned gnomes can and fairly often do drop health pickups.

* DeathFromAbove: the Gnome Mage's meteor storm.
* DishingOutDirt: not quite an elemental power, but both the Boar Rider's mount and the Gnome King can cause earthquakes with their sheer weight. The first's quake has a large area and must be jumped over. The second's is confined to a small area, but deals massive damage, and also causes rocks to collapse all around the arena.

* DualWielding: unfortunately you can't do it, and neither can gnomes, however the Freak dual-wields hatchets.

* OneHitKill: the Freak's attacks and the Gnome King's ground pound come very close. On Hard Mode, they ARE indeed One Hit Kills.

* TooDumbToLive: The King of Karryon.

* CarryABigStick: The Gnome King's giant golden mace.

* OneHitKill: the Freak's attacks and the Gnome King's ground pound come very close.

* CollapsingCeilingBoss: The Gnome King will sometimes smash his fat butt on the ground, causing some rocks to fall.

* PlayingWithFire: The Gnome King can cast fireballs from his crown.

* ShoutOut: You can eventually pick up the [[KingdomHearts Keyblade]] and [[WorldOfWarcraft Frostmourne.]]

* {{BFS}}: Sometimes giant enemies will drop huge weapons which you can pick up. They can do a lot of damage, but you can berely slash once while using it.
