* ColourCodedForYourConvenience: Toolboxes and the tools they produce are color coded:
** Cleaning supplies (rags, sponges, mops, and vacuum cleaners) are all yellow.
** Cutting tools (knives, saws, axes, and chainsaws) are red and pink.
** Stone-working tools (crowbars, chisels, hammers, and jackhammers) are blue.
* CunningLikeAFox: {{Downplayed}} -- the protagonist is a fox, but "crafty" and "cunning" in the sense that they're the one who must be clever enough to clean up the pollution and save the townsfolk. The mischievous trickery normally associated with foxes is largely absent.

* FreemiumTimer: Gathering resources or collecting tools from a toolbox costs one unit of "Energy" per interaction. The Energy meter caps out at 100, and regenerates at a rate of one unit every two minutes (or players can use the PremiumCurrency to refill their Energy meter immediately).
* GridInventory: The backpack inventory is a 7x9 grid where players automatically deposit collected resources, crafted items, and rewards. Each item fills a single space of the inventory, allowing players to hold a maximum of 63 items (discounting the additional storage space that can be purchased with gold once players build a home). Overlaps with InventoryManagementPuzzle in that players start the game with the majority of the grid locked up in the same corruption that's afflicted the town, greatly reducing the amount of space available for collected resources.
* GameHuntingMechanic: {{Downplayed}} -- Once the town has been cleaned up a little, monarch butterflies can be seen flitting around. Crafting a butterfly net at the blacksmith's and carrying it in the inventory allows players to catch those butterflies. Much the same as the other natural resources, players can merge the butterflies in their inventory to get a higher level butterfly.

Items stuck in the pollution are inaccessible until a combo is made next to them, and even after that they remain locked in place until merged with an identical item. This limits the amount of available slots in the inventory for materials gathered and toolboxes until players open up all the polluted inventory slots.
* ItemCrafting: Rebuilding the townsfolk's businesses and upgrading them with magic gathered from the island shrines unlocks crafting recipes. These crafted items can be sold to the Trading Post to obtain maps that unlock new islands:
** Lena's flower shop can craft bouquets, pomanders, and garden features.
** Squirrel's blacksmith shop makes sickles, barrels, magnifying lenses and butterfly catching nets.
** Boris' bakery produces candy and baked goods.
** Daphne's atelier makes dresses, pants, and scarves.
* PremiumCurrency: The game has two currencies: gold and gems. While both can be used to purchase items in the General Store, only gems can buy additional energy or instantly replenish exhausted resources. Players can sell off excess materials for gold, but gems can only be attained by leveling up, completing achievements, or clearing shrines.
* RussianBear: Boris the baker. He's an anthropomorphic bear with all his dialogue rendered in a thick Russian accent.
* SugarBowl: Once the mysterious pollution is cleared away, the land of ''Critter Coast'' is a beautiful coastal town [[WorldOfFunnyAnimals filled with cute, friendly animals]].
