* {{Animorphism}}: Most of the game deals with [[Literature/TheIslandOfDoctorMoreau Doctor Moreau]]-like half-human animal cyborgs, but there's also hints that their creators also did something to the game's protagonist as a kid, which manifest during the events of the game.
* BugWar: The game has a normal marine fighting against a legion of cybernetically and genetically enhanced MixAndMatchCritters at war with your fellow soldiers... though the trope is {{subverted|Trope}}, not only due to the fact that the marine ''switches sides'' to fight with the beasts against the humans, but [[spoiler:the creatures you're fighting were created for your XO (some of which he promptly sends after you when you defect), and you're fighting them to help him regain control of them]].
* ConflictBall: The plot starts out with a GeneralRipper hiring an EvilutionaryBiologist to create an army of {{Half Human Hybrid}}s, only to split into a civil war over disagreements over how the army should be utilized. Okay, that's reasonable. Then the General decides to [[NukeEm nuke the biologist's soldiers]] for no good reason, and when he tricks the player character into coming to their island hideaway, he conveniently forgets to inform ''his own soldiers'' that he required your help, turning them against you for no reason other than to add more enemies for you to fight. [[FromBadToWorse It gets worse, though]]; later on, the General kills your only ally in the game for absolutely no reason but to get you to abandon him for the doctor's side, and then you learn that the beast soldiers are pre-programmed to hate humans on sight, forcing you to ''fight your new allies'', even though there really should be no reason for that to happen. In essence, the ''only'' reason why you have to fight ''any'' enemies in the game is because ButThouMust.

* FaceDeathWithDignity: [[spoiler:Dogstone]] says this verbatim, to [[spoiler:Lion]], which replies with "As my brothers did!".
* FallDamage: The game handles it rather strangely.
* HeroicSacrifice: [[spoiler:Lion]] defeats the Overbrute Panther, which results in him getting a StickyBomb attached to him and telling Kurt to leave him. And then [[spoiler:He shows up in the Airship - with the StickyBomb ''still being attached and beeping'' to confront Dogstone, which finally has Lion blow up in front of the windshield of Dogstone's mecha suit.]]
* HeinousHyena: Especially as such are adorned with electricity and teleportation abilities. Later on you'd also get to fight these toting guns too.
* HisNameReallyIsBarkeep: Lion, who is half Human, half ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin.
* IdiosyncraticDifficultyLevels: In order from easiest to hardest: Inspection -> Therapy -> Surgery -> Vivisection.
* ImplacableMan: The later section of the game featues the Overbrute Panther, which cannot be killed by usual means and takes on Kurt through using [[InvisibilityCloak it's cloaking abilities]] and planting a StickyBomb on him.
* InescapableAmbush: The first half of the game is defined with this.
* LateToTheTragedy: The game is set up to be this, but eventually subverted for a while as Liam Quaid and his squad are alive despite being stranded on this island for two weeks.
* LifeDrain: In addition to the usual medkits, Kurt also gains a bit of health for evey enemy killed.
* LudicrousGibs: The "vivisection points" that result in the ShowsDamage below.
* LocomotiveLevel: The game featues one.
* MadScientist: Morhead fits this trope.
* MiniMecha: [[spoiler:Dogstone]] is inside one fighting you in a FinalBoss fight.
* MissionControl: Kurt goes through a few of the characters in this role, starting up with Melisa, then Liam Quaid, then eventually [[spoiler:Lion]].
* NoFairCheating: A possibly unintentional example as this could be a programming quirk, but as WebVideo/Civvie11 has found out, if you have the GodMode on when an Overbrute Phanter plants a StickyBomb upon you, the player would just ''keep on exploding every single frame until the cheat would be disabled''.
* OnlyIdiotsMayPass: You progress through the first half of the game by activating a series of checkpoints in order, usually situated in places that feels like an obvious trap.
* PantheraAwesome: The game features plenty of genetically enhanced big cats cappable of breathing fire and shooting fireballs, and that's without taking Lion into the account.
* PregnantBadass: [[spoiler: At most, subverted as Melisa goes unconscious after a contact with a Hyena early on in the game. At least she and the child has seemingly survived.]]
* RPGElements: The player gains points for exploring the level and killing enemies that one can spend for upgrading his speed, resistance, aim stability and health limit.
* ShowsDamage: The game had quite a gore system that allowed you to literally peel the fur and skin out of the enemies piece-by-piece.
* SuperSoldier: The beasts are an [[{{Animorphism}} Animorphistic]] take on this trope. [[spoiler: Kurt]] also happens to be one.
* TalkingAnimal: Lion, the one BeastMan capable of human speech.
* TeleportingKeycardSquad: The first half of the game tended to be egregious with this. It would be a miracle to walk a few feet without a handful of beasts teleporting right in your view and roasting your ass.
* TokenGoodTeammate: [[spoiler: Lion]], who gets to be the one BeastMan to assist Kurt in his quest.
* TykeBomb: [[spoiler:Kurt]] was meant to be this, having been experimented on since he was a child.
* WhatMeasureIsANonHuman: Invoked by Lion on his introductory cutscene.

[[caption-width-right:320:Talk about some [[{{Pun}} Fur]] [[VideoGame/FarCry1 Cry]]]]
'''''Vivisector: Beast Within''''' is a FirstPersonShooter by Creator/ActionForms (the ''VideoGame/ChasmTheRift'', ''VideoGame/{{Carnivores}}'' and ''[[VideoGame/CryostasisSleepOfReason Cryostasis]]'' guys), released for the PC in 2005. It puts the player in the boots of Kurt Robinson, who's tasked to seek out what happened to a Navy Seals squad that went gone missing investigating a volcanic island in the Pacific. Said Island turns out to be overrun by MadScientist-made BeastMen and other genetically enhanced animals. Reimagining ''Literature/TheIslandOfDoctorMoreau'' as a bombfest ensues.[[note]]In fact, the game used to be in development as ''Vivisector: Creatures of Dr. Moreau''.[[/note]]

!!'''The game provides examples of''':
* AGodAmI:
-->'''[[spoiler:Dogstone]]''': Now I KNOW You've lost it! By creating these monsters you're going against the very ways of God!
-->'''[[spoiler:Morhead]]''': You still don't get it, don't you? I ''am'' the god!
* ArtificialAnimalPeople: The Beasts from the second half of the game.
* BadassBandolier: Doubly so if a Half-Lion hybrid is wearing these, to boot.
* BearsAreBadNews: Especially when they are adorned in armor and rocket launchers.
* BeastMan: Who you would be fighting through from the mid point of the game, as well as Lion.
* BigDamnHeroes: [[spoiler:Lion]] pulls this off ''twice''. Firstly by [[spoiler:saving Kurt from the Overbrute Panther]], and secondly by [[spoiler:arriving at the Airship - with the bomb from the previous encounter still being attached to him - to confront Dogstone]].
* BottomlessMagazines: Surprisingly for a game released in the mid 2000s, there is no reloading. The Sniper Rifle seemingly doesn't even have a reloading animation.
* BullfightBoss: Coutresty of the one armored Rhino.
* CartwrightCurse: Melisa seemingly gets ambushed by a Hyena very early in the game. [[spoiler: Presumably subverted when it turns out she was just rendered unconscious and ends up late in the game, with Morhead even stating "[[HesJustHiding She's just sleeping]]]]."
* CriticalExistenceFailure: Kurt remains in top shape performance-wise until his health goes to zero. Same applies to the Beasts that keep their combat potentcy even after losing chunks of their flesh.
* DullSurprise: Kurt hasn't been graced with the most emotive facial animation out there.
* TheEighties: The game is set in 1987.
* EvenEvilHasStandards: Dogstone turns out to be not exactly aproving of Morhead [[spoiler:experimenting on people, which included Kurt since his infancy.]]
