* {{Narm}}: Near the end of Episode 2, there is a secret where [[spoiler: Jeremiah reveals a radio hidden in the floorboards of his cabin.]] However, this is lifted straight from the in-game engine, so if something has been dropped over-top accidentally (like a hide for curing), the clipping makes things look ridiculous or downright odd.

** Some of the survivors' voice lines seem a bit inappropriate for the dire situations you often find yourself in. Hearing Astrid declare "The guy who drank his own pee doesn't seem so crazy right now!" while being attacked by a wolf kind of ruins the tension.

* SelfImposedChallenge: The Custom difficulty allows players to change a wide range of settings to their liking. The fanbase often uses this to create challenges that are even harder than Interloper:
** Dead Man Challenge (DMC): No health recovery allowed except with rare and finite stims. All settings are changed to be even more difficult than Interloper.
** No One Gets Out Alive (NOGOA): Basically the same as Dead Man, but the player also spawns at midnight in a blizzard and is not allowed any feats.
** Deadworld: No animals of any kind and few natural resources. Other settings are the same as DMC or NOGOA.
** Outerloper: Interloper, but the player isn't allowed to enter any indoor locations.
** [[PacifistRun Pacifist]]: No killing animals. This one is actually officially in the game as an achievement, but some players take it one step further than the required 25 days and try to survive indefinitely.
