The Butler is the human form of the dragon faced at the end, so it's not a case of him being forgotten by the story

* WhatHappenedToTheMouse: The butler introduces the castle staff in the opening cutscene, and all of them reappear later on. But the butler himself? Aside from a single JumpScare when Paula sees his face in a book, he's never seen again.

* MinigameGame: The game uses the same formula as VideoGame/TheSeventhGuest, you're locked in an empty 3D castle, and by solving puzzles you unlock other rooms and more of the story.

But there is treasure hidden within the castle, and he must confront the beast within to fulfill the [[StealthPun clan destiny]].
Like its predecessor, ''Clandestiny'' relies on video sequences thanks to CD-ROM technology. But instead of the FullMotionVideo, the game is comprised of animated sequences. Players explore Castle [=MacPhiles=] and solve puzzles to unlock rooms, advancing the story.
----
!! ''Clandestiny'' provides examples of:
* AllThereInTheManual: Both the game manual, and the in-game guide provide extensive backstories for the entire [=MacPhiles=] clan.
* AntiFrustrationFeatures: Every puzzle can be immediately bypassed after going through all of the hints.
* BookcasePassage: In the library. Also a wine-cellar passage, a coat of arms passage, and many other hidden passages opened by manipulating an object on the wall.
* BraveScot: Averted. Clan [=MacPhiles=] is well-known to be cowardly.
* BreakingTheFourthWall: In several cutscenes where Andrew and Paula run off, the ghosts will turn to the player and ask them to solve their puzzle.
* ChessMotifs: While there's an actual chess puzzle involving moving a knight across a board, there's also a puzzle where you move soup bowls around as if they were chess knights.
* Claustrophobia: Andrew says he has it.
* Creator Cameo: In the Great Hall, one of the paintings comes to life, showing a rare FullMotionVideo sequence of the creator.
* CreepyCathedral: The chapel, in which you can hear a girl locked away on the floor above singing a haunting melody.
* ExtraDigits: [[spoiler: Andrew has them on both hands, which is the "mark of the [=MacPhiles=]" that the ghosts see him with]].
* HauntedCastle: The entire game takes place in one.
* HintSystem: Each puzzle has a Tips section.
* LovableCoward: Andrew, especially from Paula.
* OminousFog: One appears as Andrew and Paula drive towards the castle.
* OnOneCondition: Andrew only inherits the [=MacPhiles=] estate if he spends a night in it.
* SamusIsAGirl: [[spoiler: The knight]].
* SelfDeprecation: The motto on the [=MacPhiles=]' coat of arms: "Faint-hearted. Milquetoast. Indecisive."
* SequelHook: [[spoiler: Andrew and Paula are still not married, and head off to return the Stone of Scone while a Raven that followed them at the beginning follows them.]]
* SpoiledByTheFormat: The big-game hunter says that there's a terrifying creature in the castle more fierce than anything he's ever faced. Could it possibly be…the dragon prominently displayed on the box cover?
* SolveTheSoupCans: Given that it's a spiritual sequel to the trope namer, it's to be expected. Moving soup bowls like chess knights, moving actual chess knights, rearranging books, making words out of alphabet soup, and other bizarre puzzles.
* UnexpectedInheritance: Andrew and Paula seem pretty surprised that Andrew is the heir to the [=MacPhiles=].
* WorldOfHam: All of the ghosts.
