Added DiffLines:

* VideoGameCrueltyPotential: Whacking neighbors with a camera and then burying them underground? Sounds like fun already!
* VideoGameCrueltyPunishment: Most often occurs should Cosby decide to kill Carl Winslow. He poses the risk to break Cosby's camera or even steal all his cash. At the very worst, the other two potential victims will carry nothing.

Creator/BillCosby has been hit hard financially by his rape trial. His only way out is to murder and steal. Cosby can lure unsuspecting passersby with Jell-O pudding and land a fatal blow with a Kodak camera. After Cosby searches their pockets for money or extra pudding, he has to dump the bodies in the Cosby Cave. Once Cosby has killed at least 26 people and amassed $100, he can make that all-important phone call and hitch a ride out of town.

''The Bill Cosby Fun Game'' is a Flash game from 2004 created by Shawn Houde and Jeremy Lokken.

Creator/BillCosby has been hit hard financially by his rape trial. His only way out is to murder and steal. Cosby can lure unsuspecting passersby with Jell-O pudding and land a fatal blow with a Kodak camera. After Cosby searches their pockets for money or extra pudding, he has to dump the bodies in the Cosby Cave. Once Cosby has killed at least 26 people and amassed $100, he can make that all-important phone call and hitch a ride out of town.

Cosby has limited pudding and camera life, so he can go to the city and have Creator/RosieODonnell help him out. The stench of decomposing bodies will also alert neighbors in the burbs, so Cosby must buy a shovel to dig deeper. Should Cosby have a broken camera with no money or pudding, he could end it all by attempting suicide.

----
!!These tropes were dirt poor:
* AdamSmithHatesYourGuts: The first time Cosby needs a shovel to dig deeper into the Cosby Cave, it costs $20. Every time thereafter, it's $40.
* ApatheticCitizens: None of the neighbors are particularly concerned with Cosby killing people in broad daylight. They only seem to have their suspicions aroused when the Cosby Cave starts emitting a foul odor.
* ContinuingIsPainful: If Cosby is particularly unlucky with getting extra cash or pudding from his victims, attempting suicide may be his only option.
* DrivenToSuicide: Choosing "Attempt Suicide" results in Cosby running in the middle of the road and a car running him over.
* EasyModeMockery: Selecting "Easy" in the options menu triggers a voice bit of Cosby saying, "[[YouHaveGotToBeKiddingMe Are you kidding me]]!?" Winning the game in easy mode results in a message of "Try a different difficulty setting."
* FormerlyFit: The trial apparently wasn't kind to Bill Cosby's body.
* FunnyBackgroundEvent: Every so often in the burbs, someone will jump from a skyscraper in the city with a scream.
* TheMillstone: At best, killing Carl Winslow merely adds to Cosby's body pile. At worst, there is the chance that Carl will break Cosby's camera or somehow rob him blind.
* PlayerNudge: Cosby says, "I don't think you wanna go there" if the mouse is hovered over "Attempt Suicide".
* PoliceAreUseless: ZigZagged. They don't seem to care about Cosby's killing spree until the neighbors get them involved. Cosby won't actually get arrested; he can bribe the cops with $100 or attempt suicide.
* PressXToDie: The game can only voluntarily be lost by clicking "Attempt Suicide".
* ProductPlacement: Cosby's weapon of choice is a Kodak camera, and he offers Jell-O pudding to his victims.
* RidingOffIntoTheSunset: The credits sequence has Cosby doing this on a motorcycle.
* ShoutOut:
** Two of the victims Cosby can kill are [[Series/FamilyMatters Carl Winslow]] and [[Series/FullHouse Kimmy Gibbler]]
** In easy mode, Cosby can sell a decaying [[Series/FamilyMatters Urkel]] body on [=eBay=].
* ThisIsForEmphasisBitch: Cosby committing suicide is followed by on-screen text reading "GameOver, Bitch".
