* BrokenBase: The game is designed with minimal physical threats, the setting primarily is given through implications, and most adventure locations are empty spaces explored to find scraps of knowledge. This is either a highly innovative approach to horror gaming, or an insufferably pretentious book of rambling nonsense with no actual plot hooks.

* {{Narm}}: The incredibly bizarre intro to the GM's section, which is an out-of-nowhere full-page rant about an evil dwarf kicking you off your stilts into an imaginary field of knives. It's ''meant'' to demonstrate the dangerous knowledge you'll soon learn, but it comes off as completely laughable

* FairForItsDay: The Androgynes are, well, there's no real way to describe it beyond "people so non-binary their genitals become magical", which isn't a concept endearing to modern-day queer cultures. Still, having neo-pronouns casually used for multiple characters and explicit conformation that the gender binary is an artificial limitation still makes this pretty revolutionary by the standards of 2007.
