He is also sick himself, which causes him to wander the streets at night manically taking blood. If the boy plays doctor and heals him he will realise the error of his ways and give a kiss.

* AdultsAreUseless: Your dad in particular doesn't do anything except sit in the house, read the paper, and [[HypocriticalHumor fret about your lack of social life]]. [[spoiler: The GainaxEnding reveals he even instigated the plot in order to improve your reputation, making him responsible for all the chores you've been forced through.]]
* AmbiguouslyHuman: Many characters only partially resemble humans.
* {{Cephalothorax}}: A number of the Underground residents are this, or at least appear to be, depending on whether they ''are'' objects with faces and feet or are merely wearing them like costumes. Michio Suzuki is the most obvious, being just a WaddlingHead.

* {{Gonk}}: Many characters have cartoony models with even more cartoony official art.
* LoadsAndLoadsOfCharacters: Obviously. Look at the length of the page!
* NobodyPoops: Averted, bathrooms are the save points. Also, you find poop when you go dumpster diving. And checking the bamboo. And, of course, the manure pit.
* NPCScheduling: The various people you have to kiss will appear in different places at different times of day. And they follow their predetermined paths ''very'' rigidly, walking over you if you get in their way. (Fortunately this is one of the few things that won't take health away.)
* SpeakingSimlish: Everyone in the game but you speaks in gibberish voices.
* SuperDeformed: The only characters who don't have chibi proportions are the ones who aren't human at all, but the police officer is an [[ExaggeratedTrope Exaggerated]] version; he'd be considered a bobblehead even by the other characters' standards.
