Gift is a 3D platform game published in 2001 by Creator/CryoInteractive and Wanadoo. It parodies and references popular films and video games.
It's about Gift, a little red sneaky creature with big yellow eyes who tends to rescue beautiful princess Lolita Globo, the task that other heroes, despite being brave and beefy, failed. Armed with the MagicStaff, he travels between different mad worlds of video games to find seven dwarves which will help him to save the princess from The Shadow of the Black Deep Dark Night.
The game is full of puzzles and logical tasks. It features indestructible enemies. Some of them die in light or darkness, and turning on/off lights will kill them, while the others can only be avoided. Meanwhile, there are enemies which can be killed by Gift's staff. Also Gift can charge his staff from magic crystals to get special abilities such as creating light/darkness, freezing or making gunpowder. These abilities require magic powder to perform. On some levels Gift can use a shadow gun, the weapon which hits enemies' or objects' shadows and freezes them.
Not to be confused with either {{GIFT}} or TheGift.
----
!! Gift contains examples of:
* AchillesHeel: Little Darks and Dark Guardians can exist can exist only in light, while Little Clears and Light Guardians only in darkness.
* AngryGuardDog: The Dogs enemies, obviously.
* AnIcePerson: The Blue Crystal power allows Gift to freeze water, lava and heated objects.
* BigBad: The Shadow of the Black Deep Dark Night. [[NonActionBigBad Despite being the BigBad, The Shadow shows to Gift once and never fights him directly]].
* BlackSpeech: Little Darks and Little Clears tend to mumble something like that.
* BlockPuzzle: Appears frequently.
* CallASmeerpARabbit: The Dogs resemble four-legged spider-like creatures with large heads and blank black faces rather than actual animals. Also the Cosmonauts are penguin- or frog-like creatures with green scarves and antennae on their heads.
* ConvectionSchmonvection: Gift will be killed by lava only if he falls into it.
** And then he drowns like [[Film/TheLordOfTheRings Gollum]].
* CreepyCoolCrosses: Gift's wooden magic staff is shaped as a cross.
* DamselInDistress: Princess Lolita Globo.
* DarkIsEvil: Little Darks and darkness that can kill Gift. Also the non-deadly darkness where Little Clears can live.
** DarkIsNotEvil. Giflt's Black Crystal power creates a bubble of darkness around him thet kills nearby Little Darks and removes the effects of red and green light.
* ExplodingBarrels: With TNT sign on them. They can be exploded via burning gunpowder.
* EyeBeams: The Patroller's head resembles a large flashlight. Don't get under its beams, or you'll die!
* FantasticLightSource: Magic staff via Yellow Crystal power.
* FloatingLimbs: The Cosmonauts' hands and the Guardians' heads.
* FreezeRay: Gift's MagicStaff shoots these when charged with Blue Crystal energy.
* FrickinLaserBeams: Lots of, and usually they are moving. Some are deadly and some are detector beams which activate or deactivate mechanisms.
* HollywoodDarkness: Averted with total darkness which will kill Gift unless he uses Yellow Crystal power to light his staff.
* HornyVikings: One of the heroes failed to rescue Lolita Globo.
** Also these presumably live in Iceland (the game world, not [[UsefulNotes/{{Iceland}} that]] Iceland).
* IcePalace: Walls in many rooms in Iceland are either made of ice or covered with thick snow.
* ImpossiblyCoolWeapon: The Shadow Gun. It should be armed at shadows of enemies or objects. Somewhat downplayed since it only freezes enemies and doesn't kill.
* InvisibleWall: Sometimes pretty nasty ones preventing Gift to a fireplace, for example. [[spoiler:Also a very prominent one near Lolita's house]].
* KillItWithFire: The Burners and the Blue Burners attack Gift with their burning arms. Also they leave a small temporary fire when killed.
* KillItWithIce: The Blue Crystal power, while freezing water, kills everything in it. Including you.
* LightIsGood: Gift's Yellow Crystal power allows to kill Little Darks around him and survive in very dark places.
** LightIsNotGood: Little Clears and light where Little Darks live. Also green light which drains all magic powder from Gift's staff and red light which reduces his movement speed and jump height.
* LivingShadow: The Informer's shadow has arms which the creature itself doesn't have. Some way subverted since the Informer is harmless and helps Gift pointing the right path.
* MadeOfIndestructium: Justified. Many enemies are invincible, but it's implied that they are such only for Gift.
* MagicStaff: Gift's weapon. Though it can only be used in melee combat and gets all its powers from magic crystals.

* {{Mayincatec}}: The world of Paztec.
* {{Mooks}}: Dogs and Cosmonauts.
** EliteMooks: Light and Dark Guardians, Burners and Blue Burners.
** FacelessGoons: All enemies.
** InvincibleMinorMinion: Little Clears and Darks, Guardians and Patrollers. Little Clears and Darks can be killed by light or darkness respectively, though.
* PowerCrystal: Yellow, Black, Blue and Red Magic Crystals which give Gift one of four special powers: to create light, to create darkness, to fire a FreezeRay or to produce gunpowder respectively. The Green Crystal unpowers the MagicStaff.
* PunnyName: The worlds of Tiptanic, Paztec, Star Stress and Iceland.

Hello TV Tropes! I want to start an article about my favourite but long forgotten game.
Added DiffLines:
Gift is a 3D platform game published in 2001 by Cryo Interactive and Wanadoo. It parodies and references popular films and video games.
It's about Gift, a little red sneaky creature with big yellow eyes who tends to rescue beautiful princess Lolita Globo, the task that other heroes, despite beeing brave and beefy, failed. Armed with the magic staff, he travels between different mad worlds of video games to find seven dwarves which will help him to save the princess from The Shadow of the Black Deep Dark Night.
The game is full of puzzles and logical tasks. It features indestructible enemies. Some of them die in light or darkness, and turning on/off lights will kill them, while the others can only be avoided. Meanwhile, there are enemies which can be killed by Gift's staff. Also Gift can charge his staff from magic crystals to get special abilities such as creating light/darkness, freezing or making gunpowder. These abilities require magic powder to perform. On some levels Gift can use a shadow gun, the weapon which hits enemies' or objects' shadows and freezes them.
Not to be confused with either {{GIFT}} or TheGift.

It's about Gift, a little red sneaky creature with big yellow eyes who tends to rescue beautiful princess Lolita Globo, the task that other heroes, despite beeing brave and beefy, failed. Armed with the magic staff, he travels between different mad worlds of video games to find seven dwarves which will help him to save the princess from The Shadow of the Black Deep Dark Night.
The game is full of puzzles and logical tasks. It features indestructible enemies. Some of them die in light or darkness, and turning on/off lights will kill them, while the others can only be avoided. Meanwhile, there are enemies which can be killed by Gift's staff. Also Gift can charge his staff from magic crystals to get special abilities such as creating light/darkness, freezing or making gunpowder. These abilities require magic powder to perform. On some levels Gift can use a shadow gun, the weapon which hits enemies' or objects' shadows and freezes them.
Not to be confused with either {{GIFT}} or TheGift.

!! Gift contains examples of:
*AbnormalAmmo/ImpossiblyCoolWeapon: The Shadow Gun. It should be armed at shadows of enemies or objects. Somewhat downplayed since it only freezes enemies and doesn't kill.
*AngryGuardDog: The Dogs enemies, obviously.
*AnIcePerson: The Blue Crystal power allows Gift to freeze water, lava and heated objects.
*BigBad: The Shadow of the Black Deep Dark Night
**Non-ActionBigBad: Despite being the BigBad, The Shadow shows to Gift once and never fights him directly.
*BlackSpeech: Little Darks and Little Clears tend to mumble something like that.
*BlockPuzzle: Appears frequently.
*CreepyCoolCrosses: Gift's wooden magic staff is shaped as a cross.
*DamselInDistress: Princess Lolita Globo.
*DarkIsEvil: Little Darks and darkness that can kill Gift. Also the non-deadly darkness where Little Clears can live.
**DarkIsNotEvil. Giflt's Black Crystal power creates a bubble of darkness around him thet kills nearby Little Darks and removes the effects of red and green light.
*ExplodingBarrels: With TNT sign on them. They can be exploded via burning gunpowder.
*EyeBeams: The Patroller's head resembles a large flashlight. Don't get under its beams, or you'll die!
*FantasticLightSource: Magic staff via Yellow Crystal power.
*FreezeRay: Gift's MagicStaff shoots these when charged with Blue Crystal energy.
*Frickin'LaserBeams: Lots of, and usually they are moving. Some are deadly and some are detector beams which activate or deactivate mechanisms.
*HollywoodDarkness: Averted with total darkness which will kill Gift unless he uses Yellow Crystal power to light his staff.
*HornyVikings: One of the heroes failed to rescue Lolita Globo.
*IcePalace: Walls in many rooms in Iceland are either made of ice or covered with thick snow.
*InvisibleWall: Sometimes pretty nasty ones preventing Gift to a fireplace, for example. [[spoiler:Also a very prominent one near Lolita's house]].
*KillItWithFire: The Burners and the Blue Burners attack Gift with their burning arms. Also they leave a small temporary fire when killed.
*KillItWithIce: The Blue Crystal power, while freezing water, kills everything in it. Including you.
*LightIsGood: Gift's Yellow Crystal power allows to kill Little Darks around him and survive in very dark places.
**LightIsNotGood: Little Clears and light where Little Darks live. Also green light which drains all magic powder from Gift's staff and red light which reduces his movement speed and jump height.
*MadeOfIndestructium: Justified. Many enemies are invincible, but it's implied that they are such only for Gift.
*MagicStaff: Gift's weapon. Though it can only be used in melee combat and gets all its powers from magic crystals.
*MalevolentAcrhitecture: Everywhere except level select zone and [[spoiler:Lolita's house]].
*Mayincatec: The world of Paztec.
*PowerCrystal: Yellow, Black, Blue and Red Magic Crystals which give Gift one of four special powers: to create light, to create darkness, to fire a FreezeRay or to produce gunpowder respectively. The Green Crystal unpowers the MagicStaff.
*PunnyName: The worlds of Tiptanic, Paztec, Star Stress and Iceland.
*SevenDeadlySins: Every dwarf emphasizes one of these.
*ShoutOut: Very many of these.
**The first level is a nod to Titanic.
