History VideoGame / DontChatWithStrangers

* DoWellButNotPerfect: When Lucy challenges you to buttons, you want to beat her, which is easy, but not obtain the highest score possible. Getting too high a score results in her calling you a "tryhard" and leaving the chat (so you die), while losing convinces her you suck at the game and she leaves with "later, loser".

* WomanInWhite: [[spoiler:Comes up behind you while you play Mech VS Fruits and will either hug you or kill you.]]

* AttackOfTheKillerWhatever: [[spoiler:Early on, attempting to get into the car will result in it backing over you and killing you.]]

* WomanScorned: "Ignoring" Lucy in any regard, whether this amounts to entering a new tab while chatting with her or failing to call her immediately after your computer restarts leads to [[spoiler: you being hung from the ceiling, with a bloody message on the wall reading, "You left me."]]

This page will have spoiler tags for all possible deaths, as the many ways the protagonist can die [[HaveANiceDeath are the main portion of gameplay.]]

* TheCarsThatEatPeople: [[spoiler:Early on, attempting to get into the car will result in it backing over you and killing you.]]

* HatesBeingALone: Lucy gets very angry if you disappear on her.

* OverdrawnAtTheBloodBank: Especially in the explosion and car deaths. [[spoiler:Also if you take too long to bury Lucy, she yanks your head off and your blood fills her open grave.]]

* PleaseDontLeaveMe: Lucy gets very angry if you disappear on her.

* VillainProtagonist: Or at least Criminally Negligent Protagonist. Your character apparently mowed Lucy down and didn't even stop to check on her.

* GuideDangIt: Figuring out how to actually complete the game can be difficult, as there are very few clues as to what you have to do, and the few hints the game gives to you are very vague and can be easy to confuse. In addition to this, your window for the pivotal actions, [[spoiler: such as turning on the radio after Lucy tells you to "tune in"]], is very short.

* JustKeepDriving: [[spoiler: Played straight, Type II. The protagonist seems to have hit Lucy directly on and to have simply continued on, without even stopping the car.]]

* CarFu: At one point [[spoiler:a car can appear above your head in the house, supported by vines, until they release it and drop it on top of you, crushing you.]]

* DrivesLikeCrazy: [[spoiler: The protagonist seems to - this is why he hit Lucy.]]

* HairTriggerExplosive: [[spoiler: The radio]] is one.

* HighVoltageDeath: Happens if you [[spoiler: call the wrong number when trying to call Lucy.]]

* TheCarsThatEatPeople: [[spoiler: Early on, attempting to get into the car will result in it backing over you and killing you.]]
** CarFu: Similarly, at one point [[spoiler: the car can appear above your head in the house, supported by vines, until they release it and drop it on top of you, crushing you.]]
* CatsAreMean: [[spoiler: A deadly black cat comes out of the screen and crawls into your bed.]]
* ControllableHelplessness: [[spoiler: When you are hanging from the noose in the room, you can interact with other items, but clicking them does nothing.]]
* CreepyCoolCrosses: At one point, a large cross slowly descends into the room without warning and simply sits there. [[spoiler: The protagonist ends up crucified on it. This happens if you turn the cross next to the bed upside down. In addition, if at any point Lucy asks you for your favorite color and you answer "Red", she will mention red being the color of hell, and your cross will ''turn itself upside down'', causing the cross to come down and crucify you. "Swearing" by saying "Jeez" as in Jesus Christ or claiming you don't like the Christian God will have the same result.]]

* DeadAllAlong: [[spoiler: Lucy - you killed her with your car.]]
* DeadPersonConversation: [[spoiler: The whole game is this.]]

* AccidentalMurder: [[spoiler: The protagonist killed Lucy by hitting her with his car.]]

* KaizoTrap: Once [[spoiler: the player finds Lucy's body at the correct location]], the dramatic music playing can lead to the player believing that the game is essentially over, and so they will take their time in surveying the surroundings and in [[spoiler: digging Lucy's grave. This is a mistake, however, because if the protagonist doesn't bury Lucy in time, she revives and rips his head off, leading to another game over.]]
* KillerRobot: [[spoiler: The toy robot you have on the shelf can become one.]]

* OffWithHisHead: [[spoiler: If you take too long burying the woman you killed, she yanks your head off.]]
* OverdrawnAtTheBloodBank: Especially in the explosion and car deaths. [[spoiler: Also if you take too long to bury Lucy, she yanks your head off and your blood fills her open grave.]]

* SpiritualSuccessor: Holds a lot of similarities with VideoGame/HelloHello, though it is Internet-based instead of phone-based.

* WomanInWhite: [[spoiler: Comes up behind you while you play Mech VS Fruits and will either hug you or kill you.]]

* VillainProtagonist: Or at least Criminally Negligent Protagonist. Your character apparently mowed Lucy down and didn't even stop to check on her.

* VillainProtagonist: Or at least Criminally Negligent Protagonist. Your character apparently mowed Lisa down and didn't even stop to check on her.

* WomanScorned: "Ignoring" Lucy in any regard, whether this amounts to entering a new tab while chatting with her or failing to call her immediately after your computer restarts leads to [[spoiler: you being hung from the ceiling, with a bloody message on the wall reading, "You left me."]]

* CreepyCoolCrosses: At one point, a large cross slowly descends into the room without warning and simply sits there. [[spoiler: The protagonist ends up crucified on it. This happens if you turn the cross next to the bed upside down. In addition, if at any point Lucy asks you for your favorite color and you answer "Red", she will mention red being the color of hell, and your cross will ''turn itself upside down'', causing the cross to come down and crucify you.]]

** The most frustrating part is at the final moments, when the player [[spoiler:has to find Lucy's body and give it a proper burial [[ItMakesSenseInContext while her ghost plays]] Music/PachelbelsCanon. First, there's a ''very'' short time to do it. Second, her body is randomly placed into one of the three locations on the map, which may waste precious time. Third, while you dig her a grave, ''you cannot button mash'', since it'll make the piano play end abruptly, locking you into a long-winded death-scene.]]

This happens if you turn the cross next to the bed upside down.

''Don't Chat With Strangers'' is an indie horror game developed by Bartosz Bojarowski. You receive a message from a mysterious girl online named Lucy, and your choices in your conversation with her may or may not lead to your demise.

* OverdrawnAtTheBloodBank: Especially in the explosion and car deaths.

* WomanScorned: If you ask for Lucy's number, your computer suddenly restarts before she can relay it to you. Reentering your conversation with her after that leads to [[spoiler: you being hung from the ceiling, with a bloody message on the wall reading, "You left me."]]
