* SugarWiki/HeartwarmingMoments: [[spoiler: Prospero letting Ethan know that, despite his [[FantasyForbiddingFather family's disapproval]] in his imagination, his creativity is what brought his own hero to life. Essentially, it's the creation expressing gratitude to his creator and (assuming Ethan does die in the fire) repaying him by comforting the poor boy in his last moments before moving on to the afterlife.]]

* AlternateCharacterInterpretation: [[spoiler: Given that the entirety of the game is a DyingDream, its unclear how much of Ethan's version of them is an accurate depiction and how much is built up resentment and anger in his dying moments.]]

* BittersweetEnding: [[spoiler: Since it's left open-ended, there could be a ''slight'' possibility his family will manage to save him. And if not, well Prospero comforting Ethan in his last moments, a creation comforting his creator, counts as a SugarWiki/{{Heartwarming Moment|s}}. What's more, when Ethan asks what happens next, Prospero tells him "A new story, kid. What else?"]]

* ThatOneLevel: The maze at the bottom of the mines is the most complained-about location in the game. [[spoiler: You have to seek out five corpses scattered around the tunnels and acquire symbols from them, which are then used to open a mysterious gate. While doing this, you are being hunted by the lone enemy in the game, a HumanoidAbomination capable of sending you back to the start in an instant.]] It's also visually uninteresting and easy to miss, compounding the issue.
