History VideoGame / ReIncarnation

* [[Spoiler: DateRapeAverted]]: Demon's job in ''Final Happy Hour''.

* [[spoiler: DropTheWashtub]]: The end of [[spoiler: ''In The Name of Evil'']].

* AssholeVictim: None of the reincarnies change their ways upon returning to Earth.

* HolyBurnsEvil: Averted, the demon can go inside churches just fine, he just doesn't like it. Then again, given what [[spoiler:the priest]] was up to, it might not have been all the holy anymore.

* PunchClockHero: The protagonist makes it very clear that he enjoys performing evil actions. However, his job is to make sure there's ''less'' evil in the world.
* QuickTimeEvent: Used in ''Riley's Out Again'' to avoid being spotted by a schoolboy. Catching the plague locusts in ''Let the Evil Times Roll'' counts as well.

* [[TooDumbtoLive To dumb to reincarnate]]: You'd think the reincarnated souls would repent from their past sins after they reincarnate, wouldn't you?

* AllCrimesAreEqual: Although many installments do feature murder as the vice of choice of the reincarnies, it's not actually necessary; as long as the demon finds evidence that the Reincarny still bears ill will towards their fellow man, he'll call it good. Taking a dump in the deep fryer at work: gross, but more importantly, evil enough for the demon to engineer a gruesome "accidental" death. Selling school children into slavey in the black market is also evil enough for the demon, so as getting an altar boy drunk and passed out for you knows what.

''Reincarnation'' is a series of online point-and-click [[AdventureGame adventure games]] made by BGroup Productions. The story is about Hell, which is slightly different than you would expect in that there is a built-in way to escape: portals to the mortal realm are scattered throughout Hell, and any soul who finds one is reincarnated and given a chance to atone for their sins, thus moving on to Heaven. When enough souls have escaped, God can shut down Hell for good. To prevent this from happening, Lucifer ("Luke" for short) sends his demons to the human realm to catch the "Reincarnies" before they can turn good and send them back to Hell.

* AllThereInTheManual: A digital comic, first available for the iPhone then included for free with ''The Clergy Of Unholy,'' explains why the Reincarnies would return to their evil ways after having experienced Hell: they lose all memories of Hell when they leave.

* CoolAndUnusualPunishment: Seen in ''Riley's Day Out,'' ''The Backfire Of Hell'' and ''All Hallow's Evil.''

* [[spoiler: DropTheWashtub]]: The end of [[spoiler: ''In The Name Of Evil'']].
* EatsBabies: When examining a Demon Fetus in Riley's Out Again, the protagonist casually quips that they're quite tasty.
* EvenEvilHasStandards: Our main character likes to think of himself as a cocky demon, but putting a picture of yourself in your own room is downright arogent.

* GuideDangIt: ''Out To Sea You Die,'' if you don't know Morse Code.

** And in ''The Clergy Of Unholy,'' the demon reveals, "Of course I can enter churches! I just hate it."
* [[spoiler:PedophilePriest]]: Saul, the Reincarny in ''The Clergy Of Unholy.''

* QuickTimeEvent: Used in ''Riley's Out Again'' to avoid being spotted by a schoolboy. Catching the plague locusts in ''Let The Evil Times Roll'' counts as well.

* VideoGameCrueltyPotential: To get the "good" ending in ''Let The Evil Times Roll,'' you have to [[spoiler:trick Stubbs, a recovering alcoholic trying to get his life back together, into taking up drinking again, then doctor his sign so that it gets him beat up, possibly to death, just so you can prove that Amos is still evil]].

* ''Let The Evil Times Roll''

* ''Out To Sea You Die''

* ''In The Name Of Evil''

* TooDumbtoLive a second life: You'd think the reincarnated souls would repent from their past sins after they reincarnate, wouldn't you?

* [[EverythingsWorseWithBears Everything's Worse With Bears]]: Worse for [[spoiler:that hillbilly]], at any rate.

* [[DeadBabyComedy Dead Demon Fetus Comedy]]

* [[PunchClockVillain Punch-Clock Hero]]: The protagonist makes it very clear that he enjoys performing evil actions. However, his job is to make sure there's ''less'' evil in the world.

And nine "mini" adventures:

* NoNameGiven: But if the demon from ''A Demon's Day Out'' had one, it would be '''E V I L !'''

* DomesticAbuser: One Reincarny beats his wife for cooking him opossum for dinner. That's all the proof Riley needs to send him back to Hell.

* SlidingScaleLongName: The series is ''very'' far toward the cynical side. Even if the average people are much better than the damned characters the player deals with, the games still suggest that redemption can be a dangerous false hope and that bad people tend to never change. Recidivism is very high in a world where escaped damned souls can't seem to go a single week after their escape without killing a random person.

There are four full-length games in the series:

* ''The Final Happy Hour''

And eight "mini" adventures:
