* ArtificialLimbs: One of Albert's arms is a prosthetic that allows him to shoot out grappling hooks. It is often used to grab sheep and use them in one of the game's many puzzles.
* BackgroundBoss: The first boss is a large robot that is affixed to background and strikes from there with a giant hammer in one of its arms. Albert obviously cannot harm it himself, and instead needs to trick it into striking a mechanism that will drops boulders of unprocessed ore from a chute above its head.



* BreathWeapon: Right before the episode ends, there is an encounter with a boss who can only be described as a sea dragon, and who will easily breathe out long jets of flames. It first needs to be distracted with a sheep, and then crushed with a conveniently placed spiky ball on a chain.



* DarkWorld
* DeliberatelyMonochrome: Aside from the occasional bit of red, there are no colors.
* FeaturelessProtagonist: Albert, due to being a silhouette.

* FeaturelessProtagonist: Albert, due DoesThisRemindYouOfAnything: Given the game's setting, it's quite clear that the girl with rabbit ears is meant to being be Jewish, while the dark dogs and crows represent the Nazis. A robot boss not only has the top of its head shaped like a silhouette.period-era German helmet, but also outright has an SS lightning symbol on its forehead.
* DropTheHammer: The robot boss attacks exclusively with its enormous blacksmith-style hammer.
