First off, young, sultry Caroline Walker who dresses like a biker, gets a scene where she is naked in a bathtub.Fan Disservice: None of the nudity that isn't part of statues is played for non-ironic fanservice.It later turns out Caroline did this to herself on purpose, see Borrowed Biometric Bypass above. Eye Scream: As the game begins, Caroline quickly learns that one of her eyes has been surgically removed. ![]() Evil All Along: Father Noah, the seemingly kind priest you meet at the beginning of the game, is actually the one indirectly and directly responsible for all the horror Caroline endures in the game, as well as kidnapping her long-lost sister, Anna.Early Game Hell: The start can be very hard: combat is barely explained, the enemies hit hard, and health items and save tapes are rare.Dying as Yourself: We learn from a diary page that the antidote for monster status swiftly kills the afflicted person, but also that they will at least spend their last moments in their right mind, and in their right body.Do Not Run with a Gun: Much like in the Survival Horror games it was influenced by, Caroline is unable to walk forward while aiming, although the trope is downplayed by the ability to do an evasive backstep with the run button during aiming.The trope becomes less of an issue after you'd get an electric lamp mounted onto the jacket after you "heal" Noah's arm. You also can't have a weapon equipped when holding the lighter. Darkness Equals Death: You die instantly if you enter a completely dark area, because the "shadows" are hunting you (which is never explictly further explained at all, at most it could be implied that something out there is out to abduct Caroline), so you need to have your lighter equipped when entering such areas.Dark World: The game features a literal Mirror World Caroline traverses through to solve some puzzles, which have an effect to the 'real' world.Cyborg: The enemies are humans who have been mutated by exposure to otherworldly radiation, who have additionally had their limbs extended or replaced with crude prosthetics, often in the form of blades for arms.It's also used in one puzzle for its actual purpose of prying off wooden planks. Crowbar Combatant: The melee weapon of the game is a crowbar.Curiously, it doesn't bring up instances of nudity. Content Warnings: In the vein similar to the early Resident Evil games, the game has a "this game contains scenes of explicit violence and gore" message in between the logos and the main menu.Chekhov's Gun: After solving the very first padlock puzzle, Caroline gets to keep the padlock for later use once she reaches the bunker to connect both rings of the engine in order to open an entrance.Censor Shadow: When Caroline gets out of the bath, everything below her waist is hidden by shadows.Canada, Eh?: The game takes place in Canada and the voice actors are based from there (evinced by Caroline's telltale "soory" when first meeting Father Noah). ![]() If you did look up how to find it, then enjoy your Disc-One Nuke. ![]() If you aren't using a guide, you only find out about it from a hint in the results screen, after you've already beaten the game without it.
