* {{Griefer}}: Hex likes to offer helpful advice to the player on how to be one, and has some mannerisms of the stereotype (ie, a {{Troll}} who enjoys spreading chaos for his amusement and generally being a jerk).
* GuideDangIt: Not for the majority puzzle solutions, but the game neglects to tell you important details on how to use some of the vehicle. There are other cases where, after opening the exit gate, the game puts in a secret challenge back at the beginning of the stage, but neglects to tell you.

* TemptingFate: VIC states in the game's intro that the bots are completely harmless and would never harm the guests. Que the bots going crazy and attacking the guests.
* TrickShotPuzzle: Often the target is across a gap or simply to far away for you to walk a time bomb over, so you have to throw from a distance.

* {{Troll}}: Hex. How else can you describe someone who decides to torment you as a parting shot by [[CoolAndUnusualPunishment singing a rock version of It's A Small World After All at you?]]

* UpdatedRerelease: ''Disney Universe: Ultimate Edition
* VillainSong: Hex sings a rock remix of "Its a Small World" to torture VIC and the player.
