Weapon of X-Slaying: The sword "Dreadslayer" in The Magic Candle II is, as its name suggests, exceptionally effective against dreadknights. | |

Vancian Magic | |
| The Magic Candle (Video Game) / int_1f1248fc | comment |
Vancian Magic: A character who has a spellbook (they're expensive; Wizards start with one) and non-zero Magic skill (Elves, Wizards, and a few Humans including the party leader) can "memorize" copies of that spell. When the spell is cast, the copy vanishes, but the next one pops into memory if there is any reserve stock of that spell. | |

Status Effects | |
| The Magic Candle (Video Game) / int_2639f6eb | comment |
Status Effects: Poison and disease stop you from recovering Stamina (hit points) and limit your Energy (action points) to 49 (instead of the normal 99). In combat, you can be incapacitated by fear (which still allows you to dodge) or paralysis (which doesn't). | |

Game-Breaking Bug: The Apple II version of the first game had a fatal bug which caused it to crash if you tried to leave the city of Sumruna. | |

Loyal Phlebotinum: At any given moment, only one person (which, in the timespan of the main trilogy, is the party leader) in the entire world can wield the sword Brennix. | |

Death Is a Slap on the Wrist | |
| The Magic Candle (Video Game) / int_50727f8d | comment |
Death Is a Slap on the Wrist: As long as at least one party member with enough Sermins (Resurrect is very expensive to cast) and enough memorized copies of the Resurrect spell survives the fight, you can bring everyone back to life. | |

Talk to Everyone | |
| The Magic Candle (Video Game) / int_66a7aff7 | comment |
Talk to Everyone: To access dungeons, you need a password. To get passwords, you talk to people. To access most houses, you need the name of the occupant. To get the names, you talk to people. The goal of the game is, "Find a way to restore the magic candle." The solution is long and complicated; much of it is information alone (rather than items). You spend the game searching for clues as to the location of the necessary items and information. | |

Let's Split Up, Gang! | |
| The Magic Candle (Video Game) / int_6f619fab | comment |
Let's Split Up, Gang!: Six characters are in your party at any time. You are allowed to make arbitrary subparties as small as one (as many as you like). It's required in some parts of the game, such as narrow passages. The second game revamped the party structure. | |

Knight in Shining Armor: Sir Rexor is strong, brave, and an all-round great guy; the King would have made him leader of the party, but he felt Lukas would be a better candidate. | |

Mage Species | |
| The Magic Candle (Video Game) / int_a8d9ac65 | comment |
Mage Species: Wizards. While outwardly indistinguishable from humans, they have a much greater lifespan and are the most magically capable and martially inept of the remaining races of Deruvia. (Whether they are more magically capable than the Eldens is never revealed.) | |

Healing Potion | |
| The Magic Candle (Video Game) / int_b7d85d68 | comment |
Healing Potion: Made with various herbs and honey, and so thick that you have to eat it with a spoon instead of drinking it. (This odd little detail has a gameplay reason behind it: the Eat command wouldn't make sense for potions otherwise.) | |

Must Have Caffeine | |
| The Magic Candle (Video Game) / int_bddb820f | comment |
Must Have Caffeine: Sermin mushrooms restore energy to 100%. Staying awake and walking drain energy slowly. Performing combat actions (attacking, blocking, spellcasting) drains energy quickly. Sleeping is the best way to restore energy outside Sermins. Most players will give Sermins to Wizards so they can memorize spells while the rest of the party sleeps. | |

Dialogue Trees: Ask anyone about Name, Job or Rumors, and ask any merchant about "Shop". "Code words" are automatically learned; you can ask NPCs who might know about information related to code words once you've learned them. | |

Teleporters and Transporters | |
| The Magic Candle (Video Game) / int_cb243ede | comment |
Teleporters and Transporters: Multiple forms of teleportation: The book of Ishban included a Teleport spell which allowed you to travel a Magic-skill-dependent distance across the world map instantaneously, allowing you to bypass enemy patrols. The teleportal chambers/houses used fixed combinations of magic dingbats (simple solid shapes in the first two games of the main trilogy; magically significant bones in the third) that you could buy from travelling merchants, or loot from dungeons, to teleport to specific locations. Some dungeons contained unmarked teleporters on the floor, variously as traps or conveniences. | |
