You control a young girl named Rachel, forced to walk home from a diner late at night. On her way there in the dirty slums of a nondescript town, she's terrorized by the Night Ripper.

!!''Night Ripper'' contains examples of the following tropes:

*TheEighties: As per usual.
*ActionSurvivor: Just like Sarah from ''Bloodbath'' and Megan from ''Massacre'', Rachel is just a generic average Jane fending herself from a deranged SerialKiller.
*AntagonistTitle: Guess what the name of the killer is.
*TheCityNarrows: The setting is the trashiest part of your typical American town.
*ConspicuousTrenchcoat: The Night Ripper is caped in a big ol' black trenchcoat, as any night predator should.
*EvilWearsBlack: The Night Ripper is as shadowy as can be, to blend in with the darkness...except for the bright yellow dusk mask...
*EyeScream: The Game Over animation has the killer gouging out Rachel's eye.
*UsefulNotes/JackTheRipper: The killer is basically the modern version of him. Aside from the obvious similar names, they're both depraved, shadowy men who exclusively and gorily prey upon defenseless women, mainly hookers, when they're out drifting at night.
*InfiniteFlashlight: That too.
*{{Jerkass}}: The hooker, who belittles Rachel when she warns her about the Night Ripper. She won't even spare a dime.
