This page has unmarked spoilers on it. Proceed with caution!
- It may seem strange that in the abandoned room behind the unopenable gate, the journal is the only book that is readable, let alone not too fragile to touch; but the writer's wish was to be always understood. The wish probably ensured that their journal could be read!
- How is Siffrin able to defeat Loop despite that by that point that they should be extremely burnt out and exhausted and Loop should have the advantage? Loop hasn't fought for a very long time and very likely declined in their skills due to inactivity, with them only having their "Just Attack" skill intact while Siffrin fought for far longer than they ever did, they gained enough experience that even when exhausted, they can still put up a fight.
- Of course Siffrin's first death was caused by a boulder trap. Siffrin is a Scissors-type craft user, and Scissors is weak to Rock.
- Loop telling Siffrin he's allergic to pineapples is a funny brick joke, especially once Siffrin asks how the hell they could have known about that when he's never seen it happen in the loops. But Loop is Siffrin - or rather, the Siffrin that went through the events of the prologue - so of course they would know. It's entirely feasible, if not downright certain, that Loop chose the pineapple slices in one loop.
- Siffrin starts referring to the party as "actors" during Act 5, alluding to them following a script with little deviation, yet Act 5 contains the loop that most goes off the rails. After all, what's one of the key skills for a theater actor? Improvisation.
- When you defeat the King, and he gives a speech about how this moment of triumph is the highlight of your life, every party member soundly rejects that notion... except Siffrin. Even the first time through, Siffrin merely says that there's "nothing else for me to add". He plays it off as part of a cool one-liner, but in truth he can't refute this logic because he does believe that his life will be all downhill from here. This is, from his perspective, the last moment before the party splits up & leaves Siffrin alone again.
- How did the party get past the boulder trap on the loop where Siffrin doesn't go with them? The trap is triggered when people feel safe. Without their designated trap-finder, the party would never believe they're safe while in that room—ironically rendering the trap harmless. This is also why people in this House are told that this is the "Corridor of Death" and discouraged from going into it alone; they're safe when aware and panicking about the vague traps they know about. An intruder who doesn't know enough to worry about traps is the actual target of the trap.
- Similarly, how did the party find the two keys Siffrin had to loop back in order to find? Loop actually implies this themself, the party relies on Siffrin entirely as the designated team scout which leads to them not really looking around much themselves. This is what leads to a visually impaired Siffrin having to loop back for the keys initially, he simply doesn't initially see them and the rest of the part aren't really looking much themselves. Without Siffrin, though, the party would feel that they had to be more thorough to compensate for their missing scout and three sets of eyes would likely have less trouble noticing things like keys stuck to the topside/underside of drawers or hidden in books compared to a singular eye. This is also potentially an alternative reason as to how they made it past the boulder trap.
- It's funny when the Wizard-Loving Kid bluntly states wizards aren't real, considering Craft is an obvious analogue for magic and the party has an obvious "wizard" in Odile; but with how rigorous the methodology for Crafts are, from rituals to the research required, it's closer to a science than magic!
- Plays typically operate with a three-act structure, and the game accordingly marks its chapters as "acts". It might seem odd that the game extends past act 3 - but the whole plot of the game is that the play's running far too long anyway.
- Presumably the reason Loop is so adamant that Siffrin not use the Dagger to stab himself is because Loop did so in their own loops and ended up regretting it greatly.
