History VideoGame / ReBoot

* DarkerAndEdgier: The plot of this game, especially when compared to the first and second seasons of the show, is noticeably darker than the show proper, likely due to the crew not being hindered by the censors of television. On top of the AllLovingHero Bob wielding a freaking '''GUN''' to mow down enemies with, [[HaveANiceDeath there are '''many''' failure cutscenes]] that result in the Guardian's death, Mainframe either being under Megabyte's control or being completely nuked by Hex, and even ''Enzo'' suffering badly upon the player's actions, just to name a few.

* {{Brainwashed}}: What becomes Enzo's fate, at the hands of Megabyte, should Bob get a GameOver upon losing to the Web Creature.

** Failing to defeat the Web Creature in Chapter 5 will result in Enzo, now a teenager, becoming viral at the hands of Megabyte.

* Prequel: This game serves as this to the first episode of the show, as evident by Frisket being shown as a puppy, and Dot's Diner undergoing a grand opening.

** Hex's chaotic orb successfully striking the core of Mainframe, thus causing it's complete destruction, should said orb not be stopped in Chapter 6.

** [[GoldenEnding And the 'Good' ending]], also listed above, occurs upon achiving all good outcomes on all levels before Hex's defeat.

* MisaimedMarketing: One of the many reasons why this game falls under TheProblemWithLicensedGames. No, Bob (in the actual show) doesn't use a gun to solve his problems or defeat his enemies. He only uses one should the game he's in requires him to have one. On top of that, he lives by his HonorBeforeReason motto, "to mend and defend", meaning the Guardian ''never'' kills or does harm without a good reason. Many things that the game gets so wrong.

-> "WARNING: Incoming Game."

* {{Brainwashed}}: What becomes Enzo's fate, at the hands of Megabyte, should Bob get a GameOver upon losing to Clash.

** Failing to defeat Clash in Chapter 5 will result in Enzo, now a teenager, becoming viral at the hands of Megabyte.

Set before the events of [[Recap/ReBootS1E1TheTearing the show's first episode]], the game follows Bob as he travels around the many areas of Mainframe to mend tears spawned by the actions of [[BigBad Megabyte]]. Players navigate Bob by riding on his trademark Zipboard through the stages, as objectives mostly consist of mending the tears as quickly as they could before the timer ticks down to zero. Depending on how fast the player completes the level, two different outcomes can sometimes happen at the end of said levels. Which will, in turn, [[MultipleEndings determine the type of ending received after clearing the game]].

* DownerEnding: If the player manages to defeat [[FinalBoss Hex]], but didn't achieve all the good endings in the previous levels, Phong informs Bob that although Mainframe is saved from the viruses, many casualties have been counted. When Dot asks about Enzo, Phong regretfully says that he didn't survive. Thankfully, Phong gives Bob what is known as a 'Revert Command', which will allow the Guardian to go back to the past and set things right to ensure a better outcome.

* TheBadGuyWins: Several GameOver scenes depict Megabyte [[spoiler:or Hexadecimal]] successfully taking over Mainframe.
* BigBad: Megabyte, as per usual. [[spoiler:Until Hexadecimal is revealed to have survived the former's betrayal at the beginning of the game, that is.]]
* {{BFG}}: As stated in the [[WesternAnimation/ReBoot original page]], Glitch turns into one upon Bob's command to [[spoiler:shoot at Hex's mirror to infiltrate her lair to rescue Dot]].

* SetRightWhatWasOnceWrong: In both bad endings to the game, Phong gives Bob a 'Revert Command' to use to be able to go back and alter the past for a better outcome.
