* The title character of ''VisualNovel/{{Melody}}'' steals a plate of food so she and the protagonist could eat at the karaoke bar after they'd been told that no food was allowed in the booths. She doesn’t get caught stealing the food, the protagonist doesn’t suspect that she did anything wrong, and she stops him from saying anything that could blow her cover. However, she suspects (rightly) that Xianne got fired because of what she did. Subverted in that Xianne has a better-paying job the next time that the protagonist and Melody run into her.

** In ''VideoGame/AlltynexSecond'', the Senate ruling humanity [[spoiler:wanted to cull the human population to make them easier to rule. They therefore induced an extremely powerful supercomputer, the eponymous ALLTYNEX, to "go rogue" and cause a bunch of destruction.]] Within 72 hours, 85% of the human race was dead and the survivors were forced to flee Earth entirely, which was, to put it lightly, not as planned.

* ''VideoGame/{{Bloodborne}}'' Basically any of Byrgenwerth's attempts to study the Great Ones that wasn't plain GoneHorriblyWrong was GoneHorriblyRight. [[spoiler: The Fishing Hamlet massacre was a great help to their research and might have provided them with a Cord of the Eye, but also left them with a curse from the hamlet's surviving residents. Rom became a Great One but was left utterly mindless, Willem became something Great One-esqe but was reduced to a vegetative state, and the Mensis Scholars' attempt to gain audience with the stillborn Great One Mergo succeeded, but the knowledge Mergo granted resulted in "the stillbirth of their brains."]] There's several good reasons why Byrgenwerth is abandoned, its scholars dead and/or insane, and Yharnam is overrun by werewolves, and it all traces back to Byrgenwerth's inability to stop trying to learn ThingsManWasNotMeantToKnow.

** Most of the Vaults -- which were ''not'' underground bunkers designed to protect the citizenry but instead mass-scale experiments designed to evaluate their suitability for post-war survival and possibly space-travel on generation interstellar ships (read: torture them sadistically in a variety of psychological and physiological ways) have, by the time the player character stumbles upon them, have either GoneHorriblyWrong or have Gone Horribly Right instead. In either case, the result usually sees the player character find a ''lot'' of skeletal corpses lying around. It should be noted that, in an inversion of this trope, those experiments were carried away on the basis that "every single American civilian would want to be part of the Vaults to shelter themselves from an atomic tidal wave washing over the planet", cashing in the countrywide paranoia spread by the media. Standard fare, sure, but every Vault Tec CEO also believed that the news were blowing things out of proportion to press the war agenda on the masses, thus ensuring an much-needed influx of recruits and soldiers, and that nuclear warfare wouldn't be used despite looking like the likely scenario, exactly because of the SaltTheEarth implications, which are counterproductive to any war efforts.
