9!!''The Adventure Pals'' provides examples of:
10* AdvancingBossOfDoom: The Veggiesaur. You can only outrun it before it is eaten alive by an NPC at the end of the level.
11* BigBoosHaunt: Shady Willows, one of the levels in Treevale, takes place in a cemetery.
12* ChainLightning: Lightning Damage, one of the enchantments from a red chest, attacks nearby foes in addition to the one who's under attack.
13* DamageOverTime: Characters can be inflicted with Poison or Fire that causes them to take small amounts of damage every few seconds.
14* DamnYouMuscleMemory: On a controller hitting B is almost always "close the current menu". However, in this game pressing B while you have your inventory open instead uses the currently selected item, resulting in plenty of wasted bombs and potions.
15* DangerousSixteenthBirthday: You are under attack when you start celebrating your 16th birthday.
16* TheDogWasTheMastermind: The villain [[spoiler:was being mind-controlled by the evil but innocent-looking goldfish with him.]]
17* GenialGiraffe: Wilton's giraffe is definitely this, [[HorseOfADifferentColor serving as his mount]], stretching his neck, and [[HeliCritter using his tongue as a propellor]] to help him get through the various worlds.
18* GoombaStomp: Some enemies can be defeated by jumping on them.
19* GreenHillZone: Treevale, the world you start in, takes place on greenery plains.
