| Boxxy Quest (Video Game) / int_2055231 | comment |
Leaked Experience: Different in each game: BoxxyQuest: The Shifted Spires: Everyone in the frontline party, and stored in the unswitchable box, get full experience points. BoxxyQuest: The Gathering Storm: The four party members present at the end of a battle get full experience points. Everyone else in the party gets half, even if some of them participated earlier in the fight. | |

It starts with her waking up in the middle of nowhere with no memories, and her search for answers is what drives the plot. She gets those answers, (and doesn’t like them), but never actually recovers any of her memory. | |

Sorting Algorithm of Evil | |
| Boxxy Quest (Video Game) / int_323f135b | comment |
Sorting Algorithm of Evil: The duology has a trend of Omnicidal Maniacs who expand in scope. The Shifting Spires has as it's antagonist Boxxyfan, who wants to destroy a single site (the Boxxysphere), and Invictive/Rcoastee, who wants to rule over that same site and tries to destroy it as well when defeated. The Gathering Storm introduces Arianna/ARPANET, who wants to destroy the entire Internet. The Epilogue also has Boxxyfan return and expand his destructive goals to the Internet as well. Finally, there is Legion, the Greater-Scope Villain-turned-final Big Bad, who not only wants to destroy the Internet, but go into the real world and Kill All Humans as well. In the case of The Gathering Storm, this also applies personality-wise. Arianna is Affably Evil and a Well-Intentioned Extremist with a sympathetic backstory. Boxxyfan, while also having a sympathetic backstory, is much more vicious and Ax-Crazy. Finally, Legion has no sympathetic qualities whatsoever. | |

Wolfram spends the game creating a series of increasingly unstable giant mechas, each of which is less responsive to his orders than the last. This ultimately bites him in the ass, when his final creation is so autonomous that it turns on him for daring to give it one simple command. | |

Amnesiac Hero | |
| Boxxy Quest (Video Game) / int_41ba335a | comment |
Amnesiac Hero: Catie, throughout the series: The first game, BoxxyQuest: The Shifted Spires: It starts with her waking up in the middle of nowhere with no memories, and her search for answers is what drives the plot. She gets those answers, (and doesn’t like them), but never actually recovers any of her memory. It's described when she meets Anonymous, when he says: The second game, BoxxyQuest: The Gathering Storm, she’s mostly made peace with her amnesia, and would rather make fresh memories in her new life instead. In fact, when the Sky Queen tries to reawaken Catie’s old identity during the epilogue, Catie actually panics and fights against it. | |

A.I. Is a Crapshoot | |
| Boxxy Quest (Video Game) / int_420c50b7 | comment |
A.I. Is a Crapshoot: Being set in Cyberspace, this kind of thing comes up a lot. Mainly with Cornelia, who appears in multiple games: BoxxyQuest: The Shifted Spires: As said by Shrimp when Cornelia is on the fence about going against her programming and switching sides: BoxxyQuest: The Gathering Storm: Multiple characters: Cornelia is a rare heroic example. She was a weaponized A.I. created by the villain (one of them, anyway), but ended up switching sides and helping the heroes defeat him. She still carries an immense Guilt Complex over her original purpose, making her a rare case of an A.I. who’s also a Woobie. Wolfram spends the game creating a series of increasingly unstable giant mechas, each of which is less responsive to his orders than the last. This ultimately bites him in the ass, when his final creation is so autonomous that it turns on him for daring to give it one simple command. And then there’s Arianna, who turns out to be the avatar of the ARPANET, a precursor to the Internet who feels threatened and betrayed by her replacement, and is trying to take back control. | |

Nominal Importance | |
| Boxxy Quest (Video Game) / int_6e70b12b | comment |
Nominal Importance: Throughout the series, but differently in each game: BoxxyQuest: The Shifted Spires: Referenced by a maid in the first town, when Catie is on the quest to find a travelling companion: BoxxyQuest: The Gathering Storm has a unique visual variant — you can easily tell if a character is going to be important by whether or not their sprite’s eyes blink. | |

Dark Lord on Life Support | |
| Boxxy Quest (Video Game) / int_8313a744 | comment |
There's a very dark one near the end, after the final duel with Boxxyfan. His breathing apparatus gets knocked off, and the game tells you to destroy it. However, if you're paying close attention to the menu, then you may notice that you're suddenly given the option to "Flee" at this point, tempting you into thinking there may be a pacifist solution. No such luck — Boxxyfan thanks Catie for giving him a second chance… and then he coldly stabs her in the chest and taunts her while she bleeds to death. | |

Non-Standard Game Over | |
| Boxxy Quest (Video Game) / int_8e0430ab | comment |
Non-Standard Game Over: Multiple: BoxxyQuest: The Shifted Spires: In Skype, speaking to Bracketsy after he says he'll kill the party if it's done, leads to an immediate death by him. No fight scene, just a rapid death and the usual Game Over screen. BoxxyQuest: The Gathering Storm: Multiple: If you lose in battle to either the Fetish Dolls or the nameless inn wraith, then they won't just kill you straight away. Instead, you'll get a small scene showing Catie’s Fate Worse than Death. There's a very dark one near the end, after the final duel with Boxxyfan. His breathing apparatus gets knocked off, and the game tells you to destroy it. However, if you're paying close attention to the menu, then you may notice that you're suddenly given the option to "Flee" at this point, tempting you into thinking there may be a pacifist solution.

Precursors: The First Internet, of Boxxyfan and his people, then came the Second Internet, where those of the First Internet were unable to survive. Boxxyfan himself is a Dark Lord on Life Support, even during the Third Internet, caused by the improper semi-deletion of the Second. | |

Starter Equipment: The series' recurring characters usually have similar starting equipment across games. Catie always starts off with a Byte Staff and a Mooninites T-Shirt, but the headgear is different between games: BoxxyQuest: The Shifted Spires: The headgear is a Black Headband. BoxxyQuest: The Gathering Storm: The headgear is Catie's Tiara. Anonymous always starts off with a Byte Sword, Byte Shield, and a Suit and Tie, but there's differences between the first and second game: BoxxyQuest: The Shifted Spires: He has nothing else. BoxxyQuest: The Gathering Storm: He has a Guy Fawkes Mask as an Accessory. | |

The Internet Is an Ocean: The series takes place in a Cyberspace of the internet, which has seas separating landmasses: BoxxyQuest: The Shifted Spires: A fisherman in the port of Twitter, mentions that there are 32 seas. BoxxyQuest: The Gathering Storm: Referenced in multiple ways: Ships sail on "inter-server" waters between sites to take people between them. When on the ship, a Sailor says: Cornelia's ultimate attack, is "Digital Sea". A tidal wave that sweeps the field and hits all enemies. | |
