* DiariesAreGirly: PlayedWith. The game is played in first-person through the player character reading a series of diary entries that detail a teen's crush, later jealous obsession with a boy named Brian or "B". Since the player character model isn't shown, based on the writing in the journal, the game leads you to believe you are the titular Sam, the new girl who moved in from out of town who starts dating Brian, or Stacy, a CruelCheerleader who hangs out with Brian. [[spoiler:You're neither. You are actually reading two separate journals. One ''does'' belong to Sam, but the obsessive StalkerWithACrush one belongs to JerkJock Kyle, Brian's best friend who is [[ClosetGay secretly in love with him]] and [[GreenEyedMonster jealous of Sam]].]]

* HiddenDepths: Brian is not the JerkJock one would initially think, and actually takes a keen interest in Creator/StephenKing's ''Literature/{{Misery}}'' when recommended it by Sam. And while Sam peppering her diary with drawings is probably to be expected from the CuteBookworm [[spoiler:it's much more unexpected form a JerkJock like Kyle, who ACTUALLY owns the Journal. The art is mildly Animesque, to boot.]]

* TomatoSurprise: There are two and they're related. [[spoiler: The journal you are reading are actually two journals, one by the titular Sam and one by the infrequently mentioned side character, Kyle. Also, you are ''not'' playing as the titular Sam, but as Kyle.]]

* ApocalypticLog: The main gameplay consists of the player character reading through a diary that [[spoiler:is actually revealed to be ''two'' diaries, one for Sam and one for Kyle. Considering that 1) Kyle accidentally kills Sam and 2) Kyle goes either [[LoveMakesYouCrazy mad with jealousy]] or mad with guilt and you are playing through the aftermath of both situations, both can be considered apocalyptic logs]].
