9	!!''[=NitorInc.: Touhou Microgames!=]'' contains the following tropes:
10	* BaitAndSwitch: Put A Spin On It's third variation ends on this. In the first two variations, Seija invokes her ability to flip anything on Reimu and Marisa repeatedly, throwing them off balance as a result. Sakuya is the exception, [[NoSell forcibly stopping the rotation with her time stopping ability]]. [[SubvertedTrope Though with her hair puffing up, she doesn't go completely unscathed]].
11	* DeliberatelyMonochrome: Level 3 of Match Made In Hell is the same as Level 2... except the Hecatias and the appropiate parts are monochrome, so the player has rely on shapes specifically.
12	* DifficultyByAcceleration: As per ''[=WarioWare=]'' tradition, the difficulty comes from the games becoming faster and faster, to the point that even simple ones become a frantic dash; Max Kappacity is a mode where you ''start'' at full speed and try to survive as long as you can.
13	* ExcusePlot: There's not much story going on in the demo besides Nitori introducing video games into Gensokyo; the main focus is the microgames themselves.
14	* GameplayRoulette: Like its inspiration, the gameplay is constantly changing between each chosen microgame, at most grouped by two different control schemes: space bar and arrows or the mouse.
15	* GirlsWithMoustaches: The microgame Just A Trim has you shave the outgrown hair from the beneath the chins of Momiji, Aunn and/or Kagerou, each being female [[ChromosomeCasting like most other characters from the series]]. Kagerou is a justified case; being a wolf-woman who experiences abnormal hair growth during a full moon.
16	* InteractiveStartUp: Before clicking any of the options below, there are a few different things to do on the title screen. For the title itself, one can click the N-labelled gear (to make it spin and/or zoom off and return from the other side), the "itorInc." metal plate (which'll either rotate around the aforementioned gear or fall off and come back from above), and the splash effect background (to change the color to green, blue or cyan). Other interactions include cucumbers and "$" signs floating on the watery surface to be thrown around. On rare occasions, a chibi kappa depiction of Nitori can appear, which can be fed the cucumbers to grow and explode.
17	* MythologyGag: The many microgames naturally references much of ''Touhou''[='=]s mythology.
18	** Frosty Frogs features Cirno freezing dangling frogs, akin to her pastime of subjecting frogs to (mostly) HarmlessFreezing as a hobby and test of power.
19	** Wrist Guard is based on an event from the side material, with Flandre destroying a meteor that would've crashed into the Scarlet Devil Mansion, [[ShatterpointTap complete with outstretched hand grasping the "core" of the meteor to destroy it]].
20	** Drop Of A Hat features Marisa Kirisame dropping straw hats onto Mamizou, Eiki, and/or Narumi amidst the stone statues wearing similar hats, loosely based on Marisa's translation-exclusive dialogue in ''Imperishable Night'', where Marisa sarcastically cites "putting funny hats on stone statues" as [[ArsonMurderAndJaywalking one of the crimes Alice supposedly committed that night.]]
21	** Let Me Rephrase That is based on Kyouko Kasodani's nature as a yamabiko: [[PaintingTheFrostOnWindows being the youkai responsible for the echos in the mountains]]. One of the more fun details is how a basic "1 + 1 = What?" question just results in [[VisibleSilence ellipsis]], reflecting how the yamabiko can't do math and don't respond as a result.
22	** Shrinesweeper features Ruukoto sweeping Hakurei Shrine, referencing the robot maid that Reimu wished for in ''[[VideoGame/TouhouYumejikuuPhantasmagoriaOfDimDream Phantasmagoria of Dim. Dream]]''.
23	** Subwoofer involves Kyouko and Mystia's punk rock band Choujuu Gigaku.
24	** The flowers that grow after success in Judgment Day are the ones that are mentioned in difficulty levels of ''[[VideoGame/TouhouKaeidzukaPhantasmagoriaOfFlowerView Phantasmagoria of Flower View]]''.
25	* RailroadTracksOfDoom: Disaster In Distress is the classic early Wild West version of this trope, with Yukari as the villain that tied up Renko (or Kogasa in the third variation) to a railroad with a train that'll run over the victim if the ropes aren't cut.
26	* ShoutOut:
27	** Reisen' Hell is the classic ''VideoGame/{{Doom}}'' game with Reisen as the shooter and the enemies being Tewi.
28	** The Cucumber Caper boss microgame features Nitori and Marisa in the art-style of ''VideoGame/PaperMario'', with the platforming bringing to mind ''VideoGame/SuperPaperMario''.
29	** Heading Afowl consists of [[VideoGame/AngryBirds a bird being catapulted]] into Sekibanki's head.
30	** What The Honk is made in artstyle of the famous {{Yonkoma}} featuring Chen.
31	* SpeechBubbles: Get To The Punchline! is a player-controlled variant; requiring you to set up the speech bubbles to continue the "story" featured in the comic of the microgame.
32	* SpotTheImposter: The Impostor microgame features Mamizou Futatsuiwa, who must be found among-st the many Byakurens, Koishis and/or Nitoris she's copying, with her [[GlamourFailure tanuki tail, head leaf and glasses being the defining attributes to finding her]].
