Added DiffLines:

* Was Marjorie's husband abusive from the start or is he a case of TookALevelInJerkass? Marjorie's initial happiness while talking about her marriage suggests the latter.

* Is the Host really as AffablyEvil as they present themselves to be? Most of the game, they're very cordial and helpful to the cast, and seem to treat their underlings well too, but one note near the end vaguely implies [[HumansAreInsects they look down on humans]] and think it's ridiculous that they think they're [[HumansAreSpecial special]] to be picked for the Sakabashira Game.

Additionally, adding a HumanSacrifice and doing all this for no reason means they're responsible for deaths of innocents, but don't seem too concerned about this.

Added DiffLines:

** Does she also get hit with LaserGuidedAmnesia should a player choose to save someone else? She asks Alex for his name again if you do that, but it could also be part of her cover.

None

Added DiffLines:

** Giving Alex the chance to either save himself or one of the others. A SecretTestOfCharacter, an attempt to give others a new start in life, or a mere fulfilling of their promise?

Added DiffLines:

* Is Ceci playing peacemaker to the group [[spoiler:simply a way to blend in with them and ensure the game is running smoothly]]? Or [[spoiler:does she actually want everyone to win and go back home]]?
** Also, her [[spoiler:going up to a demonized Evan and seemingly getting killed by him]]. Was it because she was buying time [[spoiler:until her final showdown with Alex]]? Or a genuine attempt at putting a stop to it?
* Alex choosing to revive someone else instead of saving himself. Selfless, good-natured choice, or a TooDumbToLive one blatantly ignoring the flaws and crimes of the others?
* Is the Host really as AffablyEvil as they present themselves to be?

* Harold's admission to having blood on his hands from the war. A genuine case of AtLeastIAdmitIt because he's truly disgusted with Marjorie killing her family, or a poor attempt at justifying his deeds by comparing it to something less acceptable legally and ethically?
* Was Evan honest about trying to stay optimistic during his bad childhood and thus he has a FreudianExcuse for how he turned out, or was he being an UnreliableNarrator and has been horrible since before his parents died?
** Also, [[spoiler:his surprising HeelRealization if you spare him]]. Was it natural or a byproduct of something the game/the host did?
* Cool outright states that he is not proud of his past as a contract killer, but his feelings about the innocents he killed are a bit more unclear, plus he remains quiet in the face of previous game participants who died. A character with NoSympathy or a LackOfEmpathy?
* Bella generally comes across as a JerkWithAHeartOfGold compared to the others, but is also the only one not to reveal anything about her past aside from her job, so she's either a BitchInSheepsClothing trying to hide her messes, or she really isn't all that bad and the situation is just weighing down on her.
* It's mentioned that [[spoiler:no one in the orphanage believed Alex about Evan killing his sister]], despite Alex himself stating that [[spoiler:everyone was afraid of him because he was so terrible]]. A case of extreme apathy towards Alex or they didn't think [[spoiler:Evan would go THAT far]].
