But upon claiming their prize, the player's soul is transferred into the doll, which is whisked away to Dr. Quandary's private island. The only way to escape is to solve Dr. Quandary's quandaries and find the ingredients for his Fixer Elixer! |

Easy-Mode Mockery: Once you win the game as B. Ginner, Dr. Quandary challenges you to come back and try again as O. D. Nary or D. Feecult, and even draws attention to the doll's Punny Name. |

A Winner Is You: All you get for all your hard work is a generic "Congratulations!" screen. There aren't even any end credits; you just get dumped unceremoniously back to the carnival, with your only option being to start all over again. |

Crappy Carnival: From the ripoff "fortune teller" to the Ferris wheel that's clearly about to fall apart any day now to the midway game that sucks your soul into a doll and strands you on an island if you win, the carnival you start the game at more than qualifies. |

Deadpan Snarker: The player character doesn't start speaking until they wake up as the doll. Once they do, they're full of sass and lampshades. |
