* DaylightHorror: Despite a lot of the game being set in pitch black, whenever the creature Loki sends after you appearance, it's fully illuminated. [[spoiler:Might be because it's not actually your enemy.]]



** At the start of the game, Loki orders you to pick "your symbol", with each rune you can choose corresponding to a statue that - if you know some mythology - represents a god. It's not actually a ''choice'', as there's only one of them that he'll accept, and if you pick another, he'll rage about how you're completely wrong.

* AirVentPassageway: You'll spend a lot of your time, especially early in the game, crawling through the vents between various areas of the facility - you and your enemies both, as a matter of fact. Their large size is somewhat justified, as the Apsulov facility is over eight hundred metres underground.

* ApocalypticLog: Several of the audio logs you find throughout the game belong to people about to die -- most notably Phillip, a man who records several messeges trying to make sense of what happened [[spoiler:as he's transforming into one of the flayed men.]]

* DiscoveringYourOwnDeadBody: When [[spoiler:your soul escapes from Niflheim]], you get a new body (since, obviously, your corpse didn't go with you). Since Jarngreipr wasn't part of your soul, you need to find your dead body to get it back.

* ElevatorActionSequence: There's a section where you have to ride up to the surface on a massive cargo elevator. Unfortunately for you, it's infested with the Nifleheim spiders. Fortuantely for you, it's also filled with numerous nooks and crannies to hide in.

* LuckBasedMission: Non-crucial, but to get the "Good choice" achievement (as well as avoid Loki's ire) at the start of the game, you have to choose the proper symbol among ten given to you, and unless you know not only [[spoiler:the twist regarding your identity]] but also either the runes or the paraphenalia of Norse gods, you're picking blindly. [[spoiler:The correct answer is the "N"-shaped rune under the statue of Hel, the goddess with half-rotten face.]]


Added DiffLines:

* LastDiscMagic: When visiting Helheim for the second time, you gain [[spoiler:Hel's power]], which not only allows you to replenish Jarngreipr from the souls of the dead - a plentiful currency in Helheim - but also halves the cost of the killing blasts. Suffice to say, your way back out of Hel is a far different experience than your way in.

* PurposelyOverpowered: [[spoiler:Hel's power]], which you get in the last hour of the game, trivializes the encounters with the keepers. Deliberately so, considering you gain it by finding out that [[spoiler:you're a literal deity.]]

* BrainUploading: After [[spoiler:Hendrik is mortally wounded by Loki]], you bring him a soul stone to upload his mind into.



* HalfTheManHeUsedToBe: After [[spoiler:Hendrik is attacked by Loki]], you find him again in two pieces. Miraculously, the upper half is still alive enough to instruct you on how to save him.
* ImmortalitySeeker: Hendrik's entire reason for exploring Apsulov was to find a way to rid humanity of disease and pain, and achieve immortality. [[spoiler:Loki used this to take over the facility by planting the idea that drinking his blood would achieve just that]].



* ImmortalityImmorality: The flayed were created when [[spoiler:the employees of the facility drank the "blood" flowing through the roots]] after a "voice in the machine" (AKA Loki) convinced them it would make them immortal. By the time you wake up, they're utterly insane and, in many cases, violent.

* MadeOfIron: The people in the facility, though nominally human, can survive (at least for some time) events that should kill them twenty times over, from being FlayedAlive to dismemberment to [[HalfTheManHeUsedToBe bisection]]. It strays into SuperToughness if you consider that it's likely everyone you see drank Loki's blood, which is supposed to make you immortal.
