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. 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. Bragging Rights Reward: The Triple Nailgun is more powerful than the standard nail gun, uses less ammo, and can be found in the second room of the game. Caroline finds a way around this by finding and entering into the VHS tape from the day she was unconscious in the bathtub and taking out her own eye. Borrowed Biometric Bypass: Late in the game, Caroline has to access the bunker, which is locked with two retinal scanners so the door is intended to be accessed by a pair of twins at once. Bland-Name Product: One of the items to be collected is a can of "WE-40" lubricating oil, as opposed to the actual product of WD-40. Bitch in Sheep's Clothing: The seemingly kind and helpful Father Noah in reality is the Big Bad, a complete lunatic, and the one responsible for all the nightmares occurring in Wildberger Hospital. A Birthday, Not a Break: The Wildberger Twins were born on September 15th, 1970 and exactly on their 10th birthday they end up getting abducted by the Pollux Sect. 
Big Fancy House: The hospital is in a converted mansion.
