* SugarWiki/AwesomeMusic: The soundtrack is pretty nice all things said, but the battle music stands over the rest. It will pump you full of adrenaline!
* FridgeLogic: It's probably best not to think too much about how a skeleton or a ghost can be poisoned.
* SpiritualSuccessor: ''VideoGame/CthulhuSavesTheWorld'', which features similar gameplay and writing.
* ThatOneBoss: The Usurper will destroy the unprepared. To explain, he has the ability to completely heal after a set number of turns, and at 7000 health he can take a lot of punishment from the average party. You have to grind up to around level 24 just to beat him before he heals, or build up a massive combo boost and beat him down right after. He's basically unbeatable if he's not killed before or directly after he heals, thanks to the escalating difficulty.
