* WantedPoster: Once you find one of these, the game asks if you want ''to turn yourself in to the authorities''. If you do so, you lose a OneUp in exchange for some money. The reward depends on how many enemies you killed and is only really worth it from the second loop on.

* IntimateHealing: Most levels have a prostitute who'll patch you up once. Each character has to pay a different price, with Blondie being who pays less.


Added DiffLines:

* NintendoHard: The game is certainly beatable on a first playthrough, but it takes a load of skill and some luck. In any given level you have limited resources to kill a sizable army of enemies who can take two or more bullets and won't fall easily to melee attacks. Most of them have ranged attacks too, so you shouldn't be close and personal with them in the first place. You need to make sure every single shot, item and [[IntimateHealing local prostitute service]] counts.


Added DiffLines:

* UnexpectedGameplayChange: The game ends with a single draw of Poker if you manage to find the 4 ace cards.

!!This trope features the following tropes:
* CollectionSidequest: You can collect and keep a certain number of key items per playthrough. Each one increases certain stats, but what's interesting is that each one you collect for the first time adds a permanent stat boost for every subsequent run.
* ContinuingIsPainful: Dying results in a few penalties such as halved money and max HP loss.
* GottaCatchEmAll: You must collect all 4 ace cards to be able to challenge the Devil at Poker and win the game, or else you're locked into the bad ending.
* LuckBasedMission: To get the good ending and loop the game, you must beat the Devil's hand at Poker.
* MercyInvincibility: This attribute can be upgraded and doesn't cost much at shops. [[GameBreaker Enjoy it]].
* NewGamePlus: After finishing the game with the good ending it loops over until you somehow happen to die or lose the Poker minigame. You can use those loops to max out your stats and unlock as many key items as possible.
* SchrodingersPlayerCharacter: The two characters you don't choose to play as have no role in the story.
* VillainProtagonist: The PlayerCharacter is out to steal gold from the army.
