History YMMV / HenryHatsworthInThePuzzlingAdventure

** Lance Banson is regarded as the easiest, but he's not a pushover. He's much more mobile than Lady D, jumping off screen if hit. He sometimes poses, which heals him, and he sings notes into the Puzzle Realm, which also heal him if you don't match the notes in time; this is compounded by his anchor which drags the puzzle blocks up faster and cannot be removed from the Puzzle Realm. Attacking the chain enough times will cause the attack to end, but you're usually dealing with the minions he summons.

** The boss of World 4, [[spoiler: Weasleby]] is no joke. Attacks that take up half the screen and are tough to avoid, making a duplicate that attacks alongside, teleporting and even reusing Banson's anchor, albeit the chain is tougher to destroy. The only consolation is that airjuggling the boss turns them into an AntiClimaxBoss.

* DemonicSpiders: The skull enemies, particularly the ones with axes. And the dancers. Skull Enemies are extra bad because they can only be destroyed by ''other'' skull blocks. Meaning, once you kill a skull enemy, you'll have to kill two others so you can erase them in Puzzle Mode. If you don't, they'll just hang around until they return...

* EarWorm: ''Every song''. Especially the puzzle themes, as you'll be hearing them a ''lot''.
* EnsembleDarkhorse: Lance Banson.

* FridgeHorror: [[spoiler: At the beginning of the game, Henry recognized Weasleby when he came to visit. And later on, you learn that the Weasleby you've been fighting is Cole in a robot suit. Did Cole kill Weasleby and take his place?]]

** Defeating [[ThatOneBoss The Captain]].

** Lady D is the first boss of the game. Each boss has a unique Puzzle Realm gimmick; hers is shooting beans that sprout and make you unable to move the blocks above them, also serving as a hazard should they reach the top screen. Not to mention her minion summoning, machine-gun attacks and [[BossArenaUrgency destroying part of the arena,]] [[OneHitKill killing you if you fail to dodge]].
** Lance Banson is regarded as the easiest, but he's not a pushover. Besides the standard minion-summoning, he's a mobile boss as opposed to Lady D. He sings, which heals him if you don't match the notes in time; this is compounded by his anchor, which drags the puzzle blocks up faster and cannot be removed from the Puzzle Realm. Attacking the chain enough times will cause the attack to end.
** Everyone seems to agree that The Captain is the hardest of the bunch. For starters, the battle has ''five phases''. First the Nurse uses the Captain as a weapon, then starts spitting pills filled with enemies. After that comes her Puzzle World gimmick; icicles which render columns unable to be moved. The Nurse also uses crushing walls - this is a OneHitKill if you fail to hide in the wall. Finally, the battle moves underwater and the Nurse swells up like a balloon; you have to deal with her bouncing all over the screen, the water physics, and regular enemies. Good luck.

** [[FinalBoss The Machine]]. Obscenely high health, attacks that affect ''both'' screens, and those ''OneHitKill attacks'' (see ThatOneAttack above). Worse yet is that you have to go through the last level ''and'' [[spoiler: a rematch with Weasleby (who can only take six regular attacks, but keeps the screen-filling attack.)]]

* ThatOneBoss: This game makes a good work of lacking ridiculously easy bosses, but everyone seems to agree that The Captain is the hardest of the bunch.

* CrowningMusicOfAwesome: [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g6nc77yI3qA&fmt=18 Banson's Aria]], [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=trxtYRtXsE4 Dirty Tricks]], and [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vJzpLAOXMfY&fmt=18 Go, Go, Golden Robo Q!]]. The entire soundtrack is pretty awesome, really.
** CrowningMomentOfAwesome For EA, since it had made this [[CrowningMusicOfAwesome awesome soundtrack]] available for FREE DOWNLOAD at their site! Good Show, EA!
*** Unfortunately, due to reformatting of the site, the soundtrack can no longer be found there. Poppycock!
* DemonicSpiders: The skull enemies, particularly the ones with axes. And the dancers. Skull Enemies are extra bad because they can only be destroyed by ''other'' skull blocks. Meaning, once you kill a skull enemy, you'll have to kill two others so you can erase them in Puzzle Mode. If you don't, they'll just hang around until they return...
** Any enemy that returns from the Puzzle as a block can become this, especially the skulls.
* EarWorm: ''Every song''. Especially the puzzle themes, as you'll be hearing them a ''lot''.
* EnsembleDarkhorse: Lance Banson.
* FridgeHorror: [[spoiler:At the beginning of the game, Henry recognized Weasleby when he came to visit. And later on, you learn that the Weasleby you've been fighting is Cole in a robot suit. Did Cole kill Weasleby and take his place?]]
* GoddamnedBats: At certain points in the levels, the game swarms you with lots of monsters. And they just keep coming...

* AntiClimaxBoss: The boss of world 4; despite his intimidating attack patterns, it's easy to rack up damage by juggling him.
** Several players agree Lance Banson (the second world boss) is actually easier than Lady D, the first world boss. He's easy to juggle, and unlike her, his puzzle world gimmick [[HoistByHisOwnPetard can be used against him.]] (Coincidentally, the 4th world boss recycles the same gimmick.)

* SurpriseDifficulty: It's a colourful, cartoonish platformer/puzzle hybrid developed by EA's Casual division. You wouldn't think it would give {{Atlus}} games a run for their money, would you?

* BreatherLevel: After 4 or 5 levels in Atlantia and the puzzle realm that are truly and brutally NintendoHard, not to mention [[ThatOneBoss The Captain]]. Level 4-4 goes much smother with a lot of weak enemies that make a return from the early levels that make great fuel for your Super meter.

** And on that note, defeating the final boss.

* ThatOneAttack: The final boss' OneHitKill attacks, especially the second one.

* HellIsThatNoise: The InescapableAmbush theme, which signals the arrival of swarms of GoddamnedBats, and later, DemonicSpiders.

* ShoutOut: This game felt a bit like an homage to [[ComicBook/DisneyDucksComicUniverse Scrooge McDuck]] and WesternAnimation/DuckTales with original "human" (cartoonish) characters in place of the Ducks. Henry Hatsworth is a rich elderly adventurer with more skill than men a third his age who goes around the world searching for valuable treasures, much like Scrooge (the only difference being that he's British). The main antagonist (until the "twist" comes along) is Weasleby, a foppish and arrogant dandy with glasses who probably inherited all his money, much like Scrooge villain John D. Rockerduck (also known as Robax). It's interesting that Scrooge always wears a top hat and Rockerduck a bowler hat, while for Hatsworth and Weasleby their headgear is reversed. Surely coincidence, but there's a similarity there.

* StopHelpingMe: Inverted. A number of enemies have abilities that cause the puzzle screen to fill with blocks. The idea is to push enemies to the top, and put Hatsworth in danger. The bonus? If there aren't any other enemies, they'll fill the screen with perfectly harmless blocks, which the player can then use to fill his super-meter bizarrely fast. It's really more like "Continue Harming Me".

* DemonicSpiders: The skull enemies, particularly the ones with axes. And the dancers.
