A side-story featuring Matt rescuing Natz from Lance.

* AttackReflector: In ''Adventure Story'', some projectiles and even quite a few ''enemies'' can be deflected by your sword attacks. There are achievements related to this, too!
* BossArenaRecovery: In ''Adventure Story'', most bosses summon mooks which [[EssenceDrop drop mana and health recovery bubbles]] to keep you supplied during the fight in a ''VideoGame/CaveStory''-ish manner.
* BossRush: There's one in ''Adventure Story'', along with a "Foe Rush" which has rooms of the regular enemies from each level. Interestingly, in the boss rush, the arenas have been upgraded to make the fights much harder.
* EssenceDrop: In ''Adventure Story'', enemies drop hearts and green bubbles, which restore your health and mana, respectively.
* LastLousyPoint: Certain single coins or far-off chests in ''Adventure Story'' can be this.

* NoDamageRun: ''Adventure Story'' has an achievement for defeating a boss this way.
* NonLethalBottomlessPits: In ''Adventure Story'', falling into a pit inflicts a fixed amount of damage depending on difficulty, ranging from 5 on Easy to ''20'' on [[HarderThanHard Epic]]. Knocking enemies into pits tends to [[OneHitKO kill them instantly]].
* ParasolOfPain: The last hidden item in ''Adventure Story'' is a surprisingly good weaponized umbrella.

* SpikesOfDoom: Downplayed in ''Adventure Story''; hitting spikes deals as much damage as falling into NonLethalBottomlessPits (a whopping ''20'' on [[HarderThanHard Epic]], though), but doesn't instantly kill you unless you don't have enough health to sustain the damage.

** The "Temper" skill, which raises your attack ''and'' defense, can actually reduce damage taken from hitting spikes, unlike with bottomless pits.
* TreasureRoom: There's one after each BossBattle in ''Adventure Story''.

* ParasolParachute: Jumping in midair with this equipped will slow Matt's descent on top of the above.

* NonLethalBottomlessPits: In ''Adventure Story'', falling into a pit inflicts a fixed amount of damage depending on difficulty, ranging from 5 on Easy to ''20'' on [[HarderThanHard Epic]]. Knocking enemies into pits tends to [[OneHitKO kill them instantly]].

* LifeMeter: Only Matt, the protagonist, has such a meter, which is a HeartSymbol, making it also HeartsAreHealth.

* EssenceDrop: In ''Adventure Story'', enemies drop hearts and green bubbles, which restore your health and mana, respectively.

* BossRush: There's one in ''Adventure Story'', along with a "Foe Rush" which has rooms of the regular enemies from each level. Interestingly, in the boss rush, the arenas have been upgraded to make the fights much harder.

* AttackReflector: In ''Adventure Story'', some projectiles and even quite a few ''enemies'' can be deflected by your sword attacks. There are achievements related to this, too!
