* AntiFrustrationFeatures: Every boss arena is indicated by green mist at the entryway, and with very few exceptions, are preceded by a save point and a chunk of meat hanging from the ceiling (which can be struck repeatedly to refill Deedlit's elemental spirit meters).

Added DiffLines:

* InstantExpert: When Deedlit first finds and uses a weapon other than her rapier, she makes note of how unusually light it feels in her hand, and is able to wield it with ease. [[spoiler:Averted in a "NightmareSequence" and the ending, when Deedlit's real self can find the Heritage sword in her house, but trying to swing it takes a few seconds and it immediately gets stuck in the ground.]]


Added DiffLines:

* NightmareSequence: After the second fight with Pirotess, there's a segment where Deedlit finds herself back home in the middle of the night, and must fend off "Lifeless King" enemies with only her rapier while trying to reach Parn and her other allies nearby. Once it's over, Deedlit wakes up back in the Labyrinth, and asks herself if that was just a dream. [[spoiler:By the end, it's revealed ''that'' was the real world, save for the enemies and allies she hallucinated while briefly conscious, and ''the Wonder Labyrinth'' is the dream.]]

Added DiffLines:

* ReversePolarity: Similar to ''VideoGame/{{Ikaruga}}'' or ''VideoGame/ShinMegamiTenseiSynchronicityPrologue'', Deedlit gains the assistance of a Wind and Fire spirit early into the game, and must constantly switch between them in order to resist attacks and pass through barriers of the corresponding element.
* UniqueItems: Every single melee weapon and bow in the game is unique, to the point that enemies that can drop one will only drop another if the original is sold to Ghim.

* AGlitchInTheMatrix: Whenever Deedlit's about to cross paths with one of her familiar allies or enemies, the screen has an uncomfortable burst of static. [[spoiler:It's eventually revealed that none of them were real.]]
* {{Interquel}}: The post-credits scene reveals that this game takes place between [[spoiler:the original OVA and ]].
* RecurringBoss: The Dark Elf Pirotess and sorcerer Karla are fought more than once during the game, with the latter's first two encounters as a BaitAndSwitchBoss that takes some damage before summoning the ''real'' fight.
