1 | * SugarWiki/AwesomeArt: Creator/HRGiger does not disappoint with the characters and landscapes he designs. |
2 | * CultClassic: The first game is one among fans of lesser known [[AdventureGame Adventure Games]]. |
3 | * JustHereForGodzilla: A lot of people play the game just to see Creator/HRGiger's artwork. |
4 | * MemeticLoser: Mike's already portrayed as something of a loser in the second game, but the {{WebVideo/Retsupurae}} fandom take it to another level. The man [[FailedASpotCheck fails to locate a portal to the Dark World]] [[spoiler:behind ''an unlocked closet door in his house,'' apparently because he had never once in his entire life opened that particular door]], how much more comedically incompetent can you get? |
5 | * MemeticMutation: "My head feels like it's going to explode." |
6 | * {{Narm}}: The first game's hand-drawn graphics and creepy soundtrack are quite effective, but marred by cheesy and silly writing, most of which is Mike talking to himself and making a non-subtle observation to his surroundings. The CD port further exacerbates the issues by adding DullSurprise voice acting. Take Mike's thought in front of his house, for example: |
7 | -->'''Mike''': It's a calm neighborhood out here. My house seems somehow out of time, a relic of a dark past or perhaps a dark future. |
8 | * NauseaFuel: The descriptions Mike Dawson uses in the Dark World. |
9 | * NightmareFuel: |
10 | ** The artwork alone contributes around 90% of this for the first game. Courtesy of Creator/HRGiger. |
11 | ** Strangely, the bad compression that goes on sometimes when people are talking ends up being this. |
12 | * OlderThanTheyThink: Most of the Creator/HRGiger artwork was not newly created for the games, and precede their creation by several years- in some cases, even decades. The Keeper of the Scrolls, for instance, is portrayed by his ''Li'' series of paintings, which date back to the early 1970s. |
