| 1 | * AlternateCharacterInterpretation: Both in-universe and out. Jules thinks Carmen intentionally led them to [[spoiler: the lost city and its treasures so they could be donated to a museum]] while Shadow thinks she's irredeemable; a thief through and through. While no answer is explicitly given, it's ultimately up to the player to decide who is right. |
| 2 | * HarsherInHindsight: One of the places you visit in the United States is New York, complete with the World Trade Center prominently displayed outside a window the two stand near. It doesn't help this game was released a ''month'' after 9/11. It also doesn't help that Shadow brings up the time [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/B-25_Empire_State_Building_crash when a plane accidentally crashed into the Empire State Building back in 1945.]] |
| 3 | * HilariousInHindsight: The game's LimitedAnimation, character designs, and secret agent motif bring [[WesternAnimation/{{Archer}} a certain animated series on FX]] to mind. |
| 4 | * LesYay: It is ''really'' easy to see Jules and Carmen being ex-lovers, considering how Jules is trying so hard to have Carmen go back to ACME being like having a lover back. |
| 5 | * NightmareFuel |
| 6 | ** The aforementioned JumpScare on the main page. |
| 7 | ** The VILE henchman in Thailand. He's hiding in the shadows of a Buddhist temple and has no eyes or mouth whatsoever, even when he's out in the open. The creepy music doesn't help either. |
| 8 | * ParanoiaFuel: Occasionally, "suspicious" sound effects will play when looking around, creating a sense of uneasiness to your surroundings. One of them even sounds like an ethereal choir holding on one note. |
| 9 | * TearJerker: Jules' backstory. She and Carmen were considered some of ACME's greatest agents. At some point, the two had a falling out, which eventually led Carmen to quitting ACME and turning to a life of crime by starting VILE. Apparently the other ACME agents blamed her for Carmen's FaceHeelTurn and overall loss of one of their top agents. [[spoiler: Her heartfelt speech begging Carmen to turn a new leaf is very genuine, almost like someone trying to reconnect with a childhood friend who fell into the wrong crowd.]] |
