!!This game contains examples of:
* ArtifactOfDoom: [[spoiler: The Magic Lamp can enslave any genie and force them to become a classic, wish-granting genie to whoever holds the lamp, making the genie do anything they want. Shantae is only a ''half''-Genie, so the lamp extracts said half, which Risky uses to try to kill her.]]
* AwesomeButImpractical: Storm Puffs. They have lots of attack power, but take a while to go off and need to be manually whipped into the right place to deal damage.
* BagOfSpilling: It's not explained where Shantae's equipment, items or health went between the first two games, but her lack of transformation dances is justified by her being out of practice.
* BigBoosHaunt: The Hypno Tower, home to spiders, druids, and [[DemonicSpiders hard-hitting, hard-to-kill, resurrecting, bone-throwing skeletons]]. A [[OurLichesAreDifferent lich]] named the Hypno Baron resides in this place and serves as its boss.
* BitchInSheepsClothing: Ammo Baron, going by his portrayal in ''Pirate's Curse''. In ''Risky's Revenge'', he's TheUnfought on account of being a pretty reasonable guy behind that boisterous attitude. In ''Pirate's Curse'', he's a recurring antagonist who tries to conquer Scuttle Town by force with an army of tanks.
* BittersweetEnding: [[spoiler:Shantae saves the day but loses her powers in the process]].
* BookEnds: ''Risky's Revenge'' begins and ends with a pan of the sky above Shantae's lighthouse.
* BreakingTheFourthWall: Shantae questions how the [[spoiler:Squid Baron]] returns by brining up that she definitely saw him die at the end of the defeat animation when she beat him.
-->"And besides, didn't you die in a giant 'Stage Clear!' explosion?"
* BrokenBridge: Golems with picket signs, kindly requesting that you don't smash them, are scattered in various parts of the world, preventing Shantae from entering those areas [[spoiler:until she learns the Elephant Dance]].
* BroughtDownToNormal: [[spoiler:Shantae, after she beats the hell out of her magic-half in order to prevent Risky from using it. She doesn't get better until the end of ''Pirate's Curse''.]]
* BubbleGun: Shantae's Mermaid transformation can attack like this.
* ButThouMust: At the end of ''Risky's Revenge,'' you're given the choice of whether or not to trade the magic seals for [[spoiler:Uncle Mimic]]. Saying no makes Shantae announce that she doesn't have a choice, and she hands the seals over anyway.
* ChainmailBikini: [[http://i.imgur.com/G3JoABV.png The Dancer's costume]] present in ''Risky's Revenge'' for iOS and Google Play is very much this, though the armour is mostly aesthetic. It's still skimpy enough compared to her regular outfit that it only provides half the defensive coverage while boasting twice as much magic.
* ChainReactionDestruction: That happens to the Squid Baron when he's defeated.
* ChekhovsGun: Remember at the beginning of the game when it's indicated that Shantae did not take very good care of the egg Sky had tasked her with caring for? Well, later on, when [[spoiler: a rotten egg is needed for the coffee you have to make for the Cadavers, guess where Sky gets it?]] Sky does not mind [[WhatTheHellHero calling Shantae out on it]], either.
* ChickenWalker: Risky's Steam Powered Oceanic Tinker Tub.
* CollectionSidequest: The Magic Jams, which are needed to buy the higher level upgrades from the Item Shop. You need to find all of the Magic Jams, buy all the upgrades, and get all the Heart Holders if you want the HundredPercentCompletion endings.
* ContinuityNod: Guess they never got around to fixing the bridge to Shantae's lighthouse that Risky shot full of holes in the first game.
* {{Cosplay}}: An NPC boy says his mom dressed up as Risky for his dad.
* EatTheDog: Rotty. But Shantae saves the dog to be returned to her owner in a quest.
* EnemyWithout: [[spoiler: The last boss is Shantae's magical genie-half.]]
* EvilIsPetty: [[spoiler: Rottytops and her brothers kidnapped Mimic in exchange for cash, the chance to eat Shantae's brain and a lifetime supply of coffee, though that last bit is not as petty as it seems; zombies in this continuity can only retain their cognitive brain functions by drinking coffee. Still doesn't excuse Rotty selling out her best friend, though.]]
* FaceHeelTurn: [[spoiler: Rottytops and her brothers, for a ridiculous reason (Shantae's brains and lifetime supply of coffee). They are visibly regretful when Risky refuses to pay up.]]
* {{Fireballs}}: Shantae can launch Fire Balls in front of her from her hands and [[StatusEffects continuously burn their targets until they die]]. The Spit Fire is an upgraded version of the attack that launches three fireballs SpreadShot style. Besides serving as the only long-range attacks in Shantae's arsenal, they're also used to burn away the occasional overgrown plant-life that blocks her path.
* FriendlyEnemy: [[spoiler: The Barons. The Squid Baron was fighting because its children were being held hostage. The Ammo Baron is never fought, and the Mayor says he'll just talk with him to reclaim the deed to the town. The third Baron may have been actively trying to warn and help Shantae.]]
%% * GettingCrapPastThe Radar: Due to overwhelming and persistent misuse, GCPTR is on-page examples only until 01 June 2021. If you are reading this in the future, please check the trope page to make sure your example fits the current definition.
* HavingABlast: The higher level Puff spells lets Shantae summon movable clouds that explode for a lot damage after a few seconds.
* HeroWithBadPublicity: Enraged over Shantae's failure to stop the lamp heist, Mayor Scuttlebutt not only fires her from the guardian job, but starts up an aggressive public smear campaign against her. However, only he really seems to buy into it as the other people in Scuttle Town still seem to like her.
* HostageForMacGuffin: Risky captures [[spoiler:Uncle Mimic]] and wagers his life for the three Magic Seals.
* JekyllAndHyde: Sort of. [[spoiler: Shantae's "Mr. Hyde" is essentially herself, her Genie-Half, but only at the end of the game where Risky rips it out of her and assumes control over it.]]
* LifeMeter: One that is made of {{hearts|AreHealth}} at the top of the screen, as seen [[https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/9wij1s3.png here]].
* LetUsNeverSpeakOfThisAgain: Mimic tells Shantae they are going to do this once she finds the magic seals. Of course, considering what happens at the end of the game, that is easier said than done.
* TheLostWoods: Tangle Forest, located east of Scuttle Town. It's got several layers to it and is the location of the Zombie Wagon and Squid Baron's labyrinth.
* ManOnFire: Fire magic sets most enemies ablaze. Enemies on fire will continuously receive damage until they're dead.
* MirrorBoss: The final boss battle is against [[spoiler:Shantae's genie half featuring all three of her transformations, which you're left to face with nothing but the items you brought with you]].
* MoralDissonance: After you bring the Chef's dog back to her, you can "kill" it for an easy hundred Gems.
* {{Mummy}}: First encountered in the [[ShiftingSandLand Baron Desert]], they begin to appear elsewhere once you advance far enough into the game.
* MustHaveCaffeine: Rottytops and the other zombies keep their human intelligence with coffee. They offer to help Shantae access the third labyrinth if she manages to bring them some.
* MyGodWhatHaveIDone: Implied. [[spoiler:Rotty helps her brothers kidnap Uncle Mimic for Risky to use as a hostage, but after Risky reneges on her end of the bargain, she breaks down crying and runs off just as Shantae shows up.]]
* OurMermaidsAreDifferent: Mermaids appear as enemies in Mermaid Cliffs. They can hide in puddles of water and turn into small fish when killed. Shantae herself can learn a belly dance that transforms her into a green-skinned mermaid, a pretty standard version for the most part, but can also shoot exploding bubbles.
* PaletteSwap: The Scarecrows and Knights get one. Also [[spoiler: Dark Mimic and Shantae's genie side]].
* ThePowerOfFriendship: Sky and Bolo decide to help Shantae in her job as the newfound Guardian-[[spoiler:Human]] of Scuttle Town.
* PowerUpMagnet: You can buy a powerup from the store that auto-attracts money to you.
* {{Pun}}: Zombies communicate with each other via spiderwebs, in a manner resembling a message board or forum. Cue web, net, bug, and worm jokes.
* PyrrhicVictory: [[spoiler: The end of ''Risky's Revenge,'' for both parties. Shantae had to destroy her genie half, and is thus now entirely human. Meanwhile, Risky took the opportunity to flee. The beginning of ''Pirate's Curse'' reveals, however, that the remains of said genie half have merged with her Tinkerbats, who became superpowered and overthrew her.]]
* RainbowSpeak: Important items and innuendo are marked with different color in the dialogue. This has since been featured in subsequent games.
* RevengeOfTheSequel: The story centers around Risky enacting revenge on Shantae for foiling her plans in the last game. [[spoiler:She accomplishes this in the end by stealing her genie powers and forcing Shantae to destroy them.]]

%%'''Shantae''': OK! (''Kiss!'')\\
%%'''Barracuda Joe''': Okay, yer doing it again. Get going.
* SelfDeprecation: The first game had an infamous part when both [[CoolBigSis Sky]] and [[HonoraryUncle Mimic]] told you to go East to reach [[SlippySlideyIceWorld Mount Pointy]] and the Twilight Dungeon since going West to that place will make you hit an impassable wall. As every player who followed this found out, [[NoSenseOfDirection they had their directions backwards]]. Wayforward pokes fun at this error near the end of the Risky's Revenge sequel, which has Bolo confusing East with West while discussing the location of Risky's hideout, leading to the following exclamation.
--> '''Sky''': [[HypocriticalHumor What kind of moron doesn't know EAST from WEST]]?
* SequelHook: [[spoiler:''Risky's Revenge'' ends with Shantae being BroughtDownToNormal. WordOfGod says this is why they wanted to produce another title (''Pirate's Curse'').]]
* ShiftingSandLand: The Baron Desert, home to Nagas, Sandstone Golems, and the Ammo Baron's army preparing for their takeover of Scuttle Town.
* SpreadShot: The Spit Fire, the second level fire magic that launches multiple {{Fireballs}} in a three-way spread in front of Shantae.
%%* TitleDrop:%%Quotes aren't context.

* TransformingMecha: Risky's Steam Powered Oceanic Tinker Tub in Risky's Revenge, which can go from CoolShip to ChickenWalker and back.
* UnderTheSea: The underwater sections of Shantae's Lighthouse, Mermaid Cliff, and Seaside Retreat, which Shantae will need to scour with her Mermaid Form to find the three Golden Warp Squids and the entrance to the last dungeon. There's also the SunkenCavern, an UnexpectedShmupLevel where Mermaid Shantae must shoot down or avoid Tinkerbats with Scuba gear, killer fishes, and underwater mines.
* TheUnfought:
** [[spoiler: The Ammo Baron, since he turns out not to be a villain at all. He gains ownership of Scuttle Town without a fight, and doesn't do much other than rename it Ammo Town.]]
** Risky doesn't fight Shantae one-on-one this time.
* VideoGameCrueltyPotential: You can kill the forest chef's beloved pet dog for 100 gems, and unlike the {{Mook}}s you face, [[FridgeHorror he will never respawn]]. As 100 gems is quite a lot of money, most speed runners encourage this (after all, [[VideoGame/SuperMetroid speed runners are known for killing animals]]).
* VoiceGrunting: Shantae, when she casts spells and takes damage. It has since been featured in subsequent games also.
* WeightAndSwitch: Uncle Mimic tells a story of how he looted some treasure by ''emptying the contents of his bowels'' onto the pressure plate.
* YouCantThwartStageOne: Risky gets away with the Lamp no matter what, and your only reward for beating the first boss is not dying.
* YouGetMeCoffee: Shantae has to retrieve coffee in one quest. [[spoiler: It turns out it's what keeps Rottytops and her brothers from becoming regular, slow and dumb zombies.]]
