* {{Engrish}}: Bizarrely, the game is not Japanese, but the fortune templates don't bother with any kind of natural-sounding flow between setup and payoff or even any regard for basic grammar, resulting in some very awkward, confusing and clunky sentences (e.g. "Present attitude is the appearance of an untrustworthy or foolish person soon entering your life.").

* ContentWarnings: The back cover warns that the game is not intended for players under the age of 14 and is meant for entertainment purposes only. [[https://www.honestgamers.com/7158/nes/taboo-the-sixth-sense/review.html The 8-bit nudity on the High Priestess, Lovers, and Strength cards]] are the most likely reason for the former. Weirdly enough, it's an officially licensed Nintendo game in spite of both that and some religious imagery.

!!I will now deal the tropes:
* BadassBeard: Hierophant has a big one.
* BlueWithShock: The Hanged Man's face is blue, because he was... well, hanged.
* TheEmperor: One of the cards.
* EpilepticFlashingLights: The lights when the cards are shuffled are pretty painful.
* TheFool: Present as a card.
* GettingCrapPastTheRadar: There's nudity in the game, but it was still licensed by Nintendo.
* GrimReaper: Death, obviously. The only thing he lacks is the cape.
* TheHermit: Also one of the cards.
* ScalesOfJustice: The Justice card is depicted as a scale.
* ShadowArchetype: You may run into reversed cards which are (usually) negative.
* TarotTroubles: If you get cards like Death or Hanged Man.
* TheTower: One of the cards, as well.
