* AnticlimaxBoss: Natassia Kassle, after all that buildup and hype, turns out to be an easy GetBackHereBoss who spends most of the battle fleeing from Abbey. In comparison, the three previous bosses are Assassin X, an uber-badass {{ninja}} who can TeleportSpam (fought by Sydney), Major Maxim, the Hammer Empire's dreaded SuperSoldier Captain (fought by JC), and a random mook turned into a fire ball throwing giant that has to have his shields broken first (fought by Abby) none which are a pushover. For the protagonist Abbey, Natassia seems like a joke in comparison.

* TheProblemWithLicensedGames: This game is essentially a budget-market [=PS1=]-era ''Franchise/TombRaider'' game, but without any of the positive aspects and most of the flaws dialed up.
* ThatOneLevel: "Museum Mayhem!" tends to frustrate players the most, since players are assuming control of Sydney Savage, the girls' powerhouse and most lethal combatant... and it's a stage where they're ''not allowed to kill anyone''. Sydney's practically stripped of her trusty SniperRifle, machine guns, and she couldn't even use her ''whip'' for crying out loud (apparently whipping mooks is enough to kill them) and must rely entirely on a pathetic TranquillizerDart gun which works ''only'' for headshots. Meanwhile, the museum guards ''can'' use firearms on Sydney, no problem.

* AnticlimaxBoss: Natassia Kassle, after all that buildup and hype, turns out to be an easy GetBackHereBoss who spends most of the battle fleeing from Abbey. In comparison, the two previous bosses are Assassin X, an uber-badass {{ninja}} who can TeleportSpam (fought by Sydney), and Major Maxim, the Hammer Empire's dreaded SuperSoldier Captain (fought by JC), neither which are a pushover. For the protagonist Abbey, Natassia seems like a joke in comparison.
* EnsembleDarkhorse: Despite appearing ''only'' in an obscure video game, JC seems to have quite a bit of fanbase among the girls. There's a healthy amount of fanart and cosplays depicting JC available online, and for Comic Conventions starring the Danger Girls, JC is often included among the cosplayers even though she never showed up in any of the comics.

* ComplacentGamingSyndrome: The game comes with all sorts of maneuvers and strategies for how to approach the combat in the game...which will be forgotten when simply running up to all the various FacelessGoons and hip firing them to death works for 90% of the game.

* {{Narm}}: The game's dialogue isn't really well-refined, to say the least.
** All the mooks shares the same sound effects when they're killed, which is either a death groan or a "damn!" before succumbing. LameLastWords indeed...
** The girls' dialogue aren't any better, but what takes the cake is likely this bit from Sydney when Assassin X demands her to hand over the last piece of the artifact. Her LameComeback sounds like something schoolchildren would use to taunt each other:
--> "I don't see your name on it."

* FoeYay: Natalia and Abbey. Abbey is shown to be rather insecure about what Natalia thinks of her and is elated when the latter gives her a ring as a token of friendship. Even after Natalia's treachery is revealed, Abbey still tries to save her and is devastated when she dies.
