* GiantMook: Gladiators, big enemies that DropTheHammer, can launch a fast headbutt from half the screen, and can perform a BearHug. This is their most damaging attack, as it can deplete more than half of your HP on the [[HarderThanHard hardest difficulty.]] And they will not stop bearhugging the Princess after she has lost all her HP.

* BleachedUnderpants: Inverted; erobotan, the creator of this game, went on to develop another two games (''Blitz Angel Spica'', another BeatEmUp; and ''Cyber Lily'', inspired by ''Franchise/MegaMan'', both games are still in active development), but ''Princess' Edge'' is the only one classified (so far) for All Ages.
** Doubly so compared to a (thankfully) non-canon GaidenGame developed by the same creator, a WhatIf where the Princess is defeated in a way not unlike the [[Anime/QueensBlade Vanquished Queens [=OVAs=]]].

* WakeUpCallBoss: Skullheart Jester, the second boss. She's fast, can backstab you and attack from a longer distance with her [[WhipItGood lash]], and she can attack you with a shadow spell no matter the position you are, [[spoiler: you fight her again with Dark Suma on the final stage]].

In the land of Arelia, an Ancient Black Dragon was opressing all of the inhabitants and eliminating everyone who dared to oppose it, until a brave barbarian princess fought the evil dragon's army and sacrificed herself to seal the great evil and liberate the dying land. But the evil minions located the seal of the dragon and broke it, now it's a matter of time before the land of Arelia is consumed again by the might of the evil dragon and its minions...

But not everything is lost: because the Princess was liberated from the seal at the same time as the Black Dragon. So once again, she settles on a quest to defeat the evil dragon once and for all and, armed with her sword and magic, she's the only hope that Arelia has.

* [[spoiler: AWinnerIsYou]]: [[spoiler: After the defeat of the Black Dragon, you get a Picture of the Princess who then soars away on her dragon mount. How she's similar to the human form of the Black Dragon, or what happens to her after the battle is not explained in the story]].
** [[spoiler: WordOfGod confirmed that after the ending, the Dragon is KilledOffForReal, and the Princess is now free of its duty.]]

* BleachedUnderpants: The author of this game went on to develop another two games (''Blitz Angel Spica'', another BeatEmUp; and ''Cyber Lily'', inspired by ''Franchise/MegaMan'', both games are still in active development), but ''Princess' Edge'' is the only one classified (so far) for All Ages.

* [[spoiler: {{Doppelganger}}]]: [[spoiler: The Black Dragon at first sight like the Princess (except for the purple hair), even by having your same magic attacks. After you defeat it, goes OneWingedAngel for your final battle. WordOfGod explained that the Dragon gathered some of the Princess' power during the time those two were together in the seal, the Dragon used the same power of the Princess to fight her in the final battle.]]
* DualBoss: [[spoiler: Both Skullheart Jester and Dark Suma return for the final stage]] It's that hard as you expect, because of [[ThatOneBoss Those Two Bosses]].

* GiantMook: Gladiators, big enemies than DropTheHammer, can launch a fast headbutt from half the screen, and can perform a BearHug. [[ThatOneAttack This is their most damaging attack, as it can deplete more than half of your HP on the]] [[HarderThanHard hardest difficulty.]] And they will not stop bearhugging the Princess after she has lost all her HP.
* HardModePerks: Enemies have more damaging attacks but have more HP, so you can juggle them for more points and get more [[OneUp extra lives]] early.
** [[EasyModeMockery Conversely, you only have two continues if you aren't playing on Easy. Where you start with three.]]

* HeroicSacrifice: To complete the seal and defeat the Dragon the first time, the Princess sealed herself with it. So they stayed together for a long time until the seal was broken [[spoiler: (thus explaining why the Dragon's first form is neraly identical to the Princess, see {{Doppelganger}} above)]].

* ManaMeter: Self-explanatory, except that you can recharge your mana by the aforementioned chackpoint '''or''' by [[MundaneSolution hitting enemies]] with combos.
* MiniBoss: The Hydra on the first half of Stage 3, can attack from afar with poisonous needles, deliver a powerful bite, and can grab the princess and [[TentacleRope painfully squeeze her]] for massive damage.

* ThePrankster: Skullheart Jester, she loves to make complicated plans with many pranks, sports a LeotardOfPower.
* {{Stripperiffic}}: The protagonist is inspired by ''[[VideoGame/GoldenAxe Tyris Flare]]'', so what'd you expect?
* ThatOneBoss: Dark Suma, due to her high power, multiple hit attacks that cover a large part of the screen or line.
* TheStoic: Dark Suma wasn't interested on the simple and miserable life of the mortals until she met Skullheart Jester, now she's looking forward to whatever plans ThePrankster has for her.
* ThereIsNoKillLikeOverkill: You can keep attacking enemies even after their HP runs out, and it will give you extra points.
** However, some enemies can do this to your character too. Heck, even the [[GiantMook Gladiators]] can bearhug the princess after she has lost all of her HP.

* NoNameGiven: The Princess is the only character (apart from mooks) who doesn't have a name.

* MiniBoss: The Hydra on the first half of Stage 3, can attack from afar with poisonous needles, deliver a powerful bite, and can grab the princess and [[TentacleRope painfully squeeze her]] [[ForMassiveDamage for massive damage]].

The gameplay resembles a standard Beat'em up, with plenty of both physical and magical moves, but incorporating the multi-plane system first used on {{Creator/Treasure}}'s Guardian Heroes, in addition to a backstab system that deals more damage to the enemies and the ability to ride a mount just like {{SEGA}}'s Golden Axe.

* BackStab: You can do a sneak attack on ''any'' enemy to deal more damage, but it's difficult to do on large enemies due to their large hitboxes.

* Lunacy: The Princess' magical attacks are named and based on the power of the moon.

* LauncherMove: The Princess can perform this to continue the combo, but she's vulnerable to most attacks.
