There is nothing in game suggesting that the characters even know each other, much less fit into the roles of a 5 man band. Also, there\'s more than the 5 characters mentioned.

Guy Dangerous may be The Lancer, and the female escape artist fits being The Smart Guy. The final character, however... while female, her role is to be the fastest runner, not The Chick. Then again, the game does not have any dialogue, thus making that role impossible in-game.

** Or for FridgeHorror, the idol cursed you so that you can never leave, and you will be stuck there foever no matter how careful you are or how fast you run.
* CaptainErsatz: While you don't get to play as the world's most famous explorer, Indiana Jones, you ''do'' get to play as the world's ''second'' most famous explorer... Montana Smith. And yes, he wears the same iconic hat.
* DeathAsComedy: Your deaths are often played for laughs. Whenever you die, you get a laconic text message. For example, when you die from falling into a pit, this message may be "I knew I should have learned how to fly" or "temple slippery when wet". These two messages have a double irony, since you can use "wings of resurrection" and since you can slide without problem over even the roughest surfaces.
* DeathIsCheap: it only takes one click to get back on your feet after death. You have to start over as far as running distance is concerned, but you get to keep all the coins you collected on your previous runs. You can ''also'' buy the ability to resurrect yourself, so you can keep your running distance as well.
* ExcusePlot: You steal the idol. The demon monkeys start chasing you. Now run. (Good luck.)

* MoneySink: There are two consumables to spend all your cash on once you bought everything else: A head start and an extra life. This save your coins from becoming useless.
* SomethingPerson: The generic character's name is "Guy Dangerous".
* TokenMinority: The story seems to be taking place in Asia (judging from the architecture and rainforest), but all characters but one is western. The one non-western character is Asian. Her name? "Karma Lee".

The white characters are explorers and escape artists and similar stuff that fit the setting, while the black characters have concepts such as football star - making one wonder how he ended up in an ancient Asian temple in the first place.
* VisibleInvisibility: Type 4. Interestingly, the monsters can still see you while you're invisible, but it does protect you against trees and pitfalls. One can only guess that the invisibility makes you intangible, and that the monsters are quite supernatural. (Well, they ''do'' have skulls for heads.)
