History YMMV / Obsidian

* FridgeBrilliance: The Crossover Chip puzzle involves setting up a sequence for the Spider to follow, which then ''modifies itself as it's moving'' (provided the first process is set correctly), and then it repeats until the crossover chip is filled. In other words, the entire puzzle represents ''self-modifying code'', which is how true AI comes to be.

* SugarWiki/AwesomeMusic: The game's theme during the end credits.

* EarWorm: The exaggerated Muzak that plays on the Bureau's Security Face will definitely get inside your skull if you don't know what you're doing.

* HilariousInHindsight: The Conductor shares a lot of similarities to Hexadecimal from ''WesternAnimation/ReBoot'', with her mask-like face that doesn't move when she talks, to her drama-themed attire.

* CrowningMusicOfAwesome: The game's theme during the end credits.

* FunnyMoments: The Bureau is the game's primary source of humor.

** Or just before that, where you're walking on the Executive Face, the one area of the Bureau you're not supposed to go to. If you approach his office, the Chief even spells it out that you're "standing on [his] sky", and asks you to "come back with your feet on the ground".

* CrowningMusicOfAwesome: The game's theme during the end credits.
* EarWorm: The exaggerated Muzak that plays on the Bureau's Security Face will definitely get inside your skull if you don't know what you're doing.
* HarsherInHindsight: In light of Global Warming and pollution still ongoing since the game came out, there's a GreenAesop to be said somewhere.

* TechnologyMarchesOn: When you're watching the sendoff party video, look closely at the phone Lilah & Max's boss is holding.
** In the chemistry lab puzzle, there's a TV-like device with two items next to it that look like floppy disks.
