!This game includes the following tropes:
* BoisterousBruiser: The cheery horticulture obsessed rock giant who lives on an island.
* {{Cult}}: The water nymphs who live permanently inside the whale and worship it, and have a tendency to swap {{Ice Cream Koan}}s.
* HereWeGoAgain: Until you have found all twelve potential endings, each play through ends with the brothers back at the port and ready to start a new voyage.
* {{Iyashikei}}: The general atmosphere of the game is a Western example of this genre, as a group of happy explorers encounter eccentric but mostly friendly supernatural beings without much of a sense of threat.
* LeeroyJenkins: HastyBeard, as his name suggests, has a tendency to throw himself into situations.
* SeaMonster: Several, including the Kraken that the brothers can tame and ride in one story branch, the leviathan that nearly eats them in another, and the wise female sea serpent who chats to them at the end of each branch.
* SuperNotDrowningSkills: The brothers can seemingly survive underwater indefinitely and experience nothing but mild inconvenience.
* SwallowedWhole: The beginning of the plot of the game, although the whale in question is simply eating people as a means of transporting them around without digesting them.
* WalkDontSwim: Some potential story branches end with the brothers at the bottom of the ocean and having to walk back to their home port.
