* DropTheHammer: One of the weapons the player can use is a hammer. A small hammer. Because of its size, it doesn't use up a lot of the player's stamina when using it to attack and is very durable.

%%* NailEm:

** As you're heading to the storage room in Chapter 2, you'll notice a graveyard you can access. Going towards it prompt the voice over the radio to tell you that there is nothing there for you to find. Turns out the voice was lying as there are several supplies and a new gun for you to pick up. [[spoiler:What's also down there is an [[InvisibleMonsters invisible enemy]] that you'll only be aware of after you take damage from it or you see a box randomly burst open.]]

* BoulderBludgeon: Many small items, like rocks and bricks, can be thrown at enemies to deal damage. Most of them will break on impact, but rocks can be reused upon hitting a wall or enemy, making it entirely possible to beat an enemy to death by throwing the same rock at them over and over again.

* ImplacableMan: [[spoiler:One of the biggest obstacles of NewGamePlus is the hunter, an enemy that is an invincible LightningBruiser that can [[OneHitKill instantly kill]] you with a fast attack, but can only spawn after a 10-minute grace period in each chapter. If you manage to reach an area that it cannot get to, do not worry, it ''will'' teleport to and kill you. Only in the final level is the hunter finally killable, and it's ''still'' the most durable enemy in the whole game and still has its fast attacks.]]

* WrenchWhack: The wrench is the only melee weapon in the game to be unbreakable, but comes at the cost of being the lowest damage-dealing weapon in the game.

* WhamLine: [[spoiler:If the note the player finds at the end of the mines didn't make it apparent as to who you've been playing as the whole time, then what the voice of the radio says to you afterwards spells it out.]]

* MolotovCocktail: Given that the player managed to get their hands on the materials needed to make one, they're able to use these against enemies to deal damage. They're extremely useful at chokepoints as enemies will walk through the fire to reach you, but because of ''Total Chaos'''s graphics, staring directly at the fire produced from a Molotov will hurt your eyes because of how bright it is. One is even required for the player to progress, as it is needed to burn a growth covering the exit to a building, which is where the player learns the recipe for it. [[spoiler:If the player follows through with this, they've essentially locked themselves into the bad ending.]]

* NewGamePlus: Not in the way that New Game Plus is usually accessed or works. After completing the game once, [[spoiler:the credits has a code at the very end of it. Inputting that code on a keypad you found at the beginning of the game has you access New Game Plus, which the game warns you about before you continue. The main differences between the main game and New Game Plus is that the player starts out with a Super Shotgun, the fog becomes completely red, the player is no longer being guided by the VoiceWithAnInternetConnection, enemy placements and types being changed and the player will get hunted by an unkillable enemy capable of [[OneHitKill one-shotting]] after a short grace period after starting each chapter]].

* RevolversAreJustBetter: The revolver is the second handgun you can acquire and is also much stronger than pistol but is offset by it's ammunition. In both rarity and the amount it can carry.

The game takes place in 1972 on a remote island known as Fort Oasis, an AbandonedArea composed of tall concrete structures that was once the residence of a mining community. You arrived on the island upon after receiving a distress signal which culminated in you getting caught in a storm that left you shipwrecked on the aforementioned island, but you still got the distress signal through your (mostly) repaired boat's radio. It doesn't take long to realize that something had gone very wrong on the island before you arrived.

* BulletDodgesYou: Trying to use a firearm on a glare has this outcome. If you give it a moment after you stop shooting at it, the glare will send all the bullets you just fired back at you.

** Bad: [[spoiler:By following the directions of the man on the other end of the radio, the game will end on Tyler, knowing that even though he got his lung cancer treated, feeling that he has nothing left as Leda had left him, Fort Oasis had been abandoned and felt that the aforementioned treatment prolonged his misery, ends it all by [[HangingAround hanging]] [[DrivenToSuicide himself]].]]
