While it was at the time considered rather average, it is now [[SoBadItsGood incredibly entertaining]]: the laughably illogical puzzles are just barely passable, the animations for everything from jumping to just standing still are ridiculous, and its otherwise interesting but forgettable plot is chock full of Narm.

* BodyHorror: The result of the ViralTransformation entry below.
* ChekhovsGun: [[spoiler: Pipo's chip. Seems extremely pointless to take it? Yes, but Pipo is at the very end uploaded onto Zeus (the giant computer) who lets Milly and Raz out of the base that is about to explode.]]
* CloningBlues: [[spoiler:The main character, Raz Karcy, is actually a clone of the real Raz Karcy, a MadScientist whose wife died. Milly, your companion for most of the game, is actually a clone of the original Milly, the original Karcy's wife. The original Raz Karcy wants clone Milly to love him, but she loves clone Raz.]]
* CuteMachines: Pipo.
* DressCodedForYourConvenience: The good guys wear vests that are too small for them. The evil guys don't.
* ElaborateUndergroundBase: The first game took place entirely inside one.
* TheFaceless: The mysterious man who helps the heroes along and the scientists in the discovered video.
* GeneticMemory: [[spoiler: Milly remembers all of her original's memories because original-Raz wanted her to love him again.]]
* GoodMorningCrono
* GoshDarnItToHeck: It feels like the script was deliberately kept rated G for whatever market appeal they were going for.
* GuideDangIt: There is nothing that indicates what objects can be interacted with. Many items are not even visible in the game, you just have to interact with one of several identical environmental objects to find the item needed. Crouching and interacting with an object has a different effect than interacting with it standing up, to the point where while standing up you will get "There's nothing here" and while crouching you will find a crucial item. Completion requires you either check every single thing, from desks to boxes to walls, twice, or you use a guide.
* HeroicSacrifice: [[spoiler: Dear Pipo.]]
* LaserBlade: The laser knife.
* LetsPlay: The previously mentioned Gameinformer Super Replay of the entire game, [[http://www.gameinformer.com/b/news/archive/2010/12/31/super-replay-overblood-part-1.aspx found here.]]
* MadScientist:
* MagicAntidote: Once the ViralTransformation mention below is in full effect, [[spoiler: Milly takes Raz to get treated and completely reverses the virus.]] This essentially wastes the subplot, since there was a decent amount of build up but is never mentioned again after that event.
* ReplacementGoldfish: [[spoiler: Milly (the one who joins the party) was cloned to replace the original's death and be the wife to the husband, original Raz (the villain).]]
* RobotBuddy: Pipo. [[spoiler:We'll never forget you.]]
* SayMyName: [[spoiler: "Pipoooooooooo!"]] and later [[spoiler:"Milllllllllly!"]]
* SelfDestructMechanism
* SuperSoldier: [[spoiler: This has been Lystra's original aim, creating clone soldiers who carry the ARNA virus that gives them higher sensory perception. This is why the zombies are very strong.]] Obviously, it backfires until [[spoiler: the original Raz shows how to do it... and then you have to fight him]].
* TapOnTheHead: Raz gets knocked out in a single punch from [[spoiler: Original Raz]] compared to the other times he's been punched by zombies.
* ThisCannotBe: Raz says this upon [[spoiler: learning that he's a clone.]]
* TimeLimitBoss: The final boss must be beaten in five hundred seconds and still escape.
* UnskippableCutscene
* ViralTransformation: Happens to [[spoiler: the clone Raz. That is to say, the main character.]]
* YouAllLookFamiliar: The zombies all have the exact same model. More obvious than in other games because the only thing they wear is a solid-colored jumpsuit, normally blue but later [[PaletteSwap Palette Swapped]] to green.
!!The sequel provides examples of:
* AnimeHair: Arcano, lampshaded by an NPC who says it's weird and asks you to change it.
* BareYourMidriff: Every single woman in the entire game.
* TheCoatsAreOff: Kondo in the first fight.
* CoolAirship: Billboard Island turns into one.
* EnemyMine: The owners of Billboard Island force Arcano to fight with them after he tried to rob them.
* GirlishPigtails: Arcano's younger sister, Nina, has these.
* GoshDarnItToHeck: Averted when Arcano says both "shit" and "bastard" in the first cutscenes.
* HighAltitudeBattle
* LaserGuidedAmnesia: The ITP have been doing this to people against them, so they can't fully remember what top secret information they can remember. For example, erasing Raz's memory of the events in the first game.
* ManInWhite
* NoEscapeButDown: At the very start, Arcano jumps out a window.
* NoExportForYou: ''OverBlood 2'' never made it to America, but was released in PAL regions and Japan.
* OnlyInItForTheMoney: Arcano, after he's finished the first job he was paid for he does decide to work for free.
* OrWasItADream: Did Arcano see the spirit of his dead sister or was it a dream?
* TheOtherDarrin: Raz is played by another actor, at least in the English version.
* RubberMan: Kondo is this in his "green" form.
* {{Seers}}: Arcano has visions of the future.
* TortureAlwaysWorks: Raz and the other scientists were tortured after they survived the explosions before the game started.
* UnusualEyebrows: All the bad guys have really odd eyebrows...

He tries to save and old man at an airport from being robbed but does get a valuable object that involves saving the earth. He then goes on a paid mission to fight the Government. It was released only in Japan and Europe, and contained a {{Game Breaking Bug}} that made it impossible to finish. [[FollowTheLeader It also had a lot of similarities]] to [[FinalFantasyVII another game]].
If you actually looked up this forgotten game, its likely because you watched the [[LetsPlay Super Replay]] of it on Gameinformer.com.

!!Overblood contains examples of:
* AmnesiacHero: He remembers nothing.
* [[spoiler: AndThenJohnWasAZombie: Raz becomes one... but in an unusual fashion, he gets cured in under five minutes.]]
* BigWordShout / SkywardScream: [[spoiler:Pipoooooooo!.]]
* BodyHorror: The result of the ViralTransformation entry below.
* ChekhovsGun: [[spoiler: Pipo's chip. Seems extremely pointless to take it? Yes, but Pipo is at the very end uploaded onto Zeus (the giant computer) who lets Milly and Raz out of the base that is about to explode.]]
* CloningBlues: [[spoiler:The main character, Raz Karcy, is actually a clone of the real Raz Karcy, a MadScientist whose wife died. Milly, your companion for most of the game, is actually a clone of the original Milly, the original Karcy's wife. The original Raz Karcy wants clone Milly to love him, but she loves clone Raz.]]
* CuteMachines: Pipo.
* DressCodedForYourConvenience: The good guys wear vests that are too small for them. The evil guys don't.
* ElaborateUndergroundBase: The first game took place entirely inside one.
* TheFaceless: The mysterious man who helps the heroes along and the scientists in the discovered video.
* GeneticMemory: [[spoiler: Milly remembers all of her original's memories because original-Raz wanted her to love him again.]]
* GoodMorningCrono
* GoshDarnItToHeck: It feels like the script was deliberately kept rated G for whatever market appeal they were going for.
* GuideDangIt: There is nothing that indicates what objects can be interacted with. Many items are not even visible in the game, you just have to interact with one of several identical environmental objects to find the item needed. Crouching and interacting with an object has a different effect than interacting with it standing up, to the point where while standing up you will get "There's nothing here" and while crouching you will find a crucial item. Completion requires you either check every single thing, from desks to boxes to walls, twice, or you use a guide.
* HeroicSacrifice: [[spoiler: Dear Pipo.]]
* LaserBlade: The laser knife.
* LetsPlay: The previously mentioned Gameinformer Super Replay of the entire game, [[http://www.gameinformer.com/b/news/archive/2010/12/31/super-replay-overblood-part-1.aspx found here.]]
* MadScientist:
* MagicAntidote: Once the ViralTransformation mention below is in full effect, [[spoiler: Milly takes Raz to get treated and completely reverses the virus.]] This essentially wastes the subplot, since there was a decent amount of build up but is never mentioned again after that event.
* ReplacementGoldfish: [[spoiler: Milly (the one who joins the party) was cloned to replace the original's death and be the wife to the husband, original Raz (the villain).]]
* RobotBuddy: Pipo. [[spoiler:We'll never forget you.]]
* SayMyName: [[spoiler: "Pipoooooooooo!"]] and later [[spoiler:"Milllllllllly!"]]
* SelfDestructMechanism
* SuperSoldier: [[spoiler: This has been Lystra's original aim, creating clone soldiers who carry the ARNA virus that gives them higher sensory perception. This is why the zombies are very strong.]] Obviously, it backfires until [[spoiler: the original Raz shows how to do it... and then you have to fight him]].
* TapOnTheHead: Raz gets knocked out in a single punch from [[spoiler: Original Raz]] compared to the other times he's been punched by zombies.
* ThisCannotBe: Raz says this upon [[spoiler: learning that he's a clone.]]
* TimeLimitBoss: The final boss must be beaten in five hundred seconds and still escape.
* UnskippableCutscene
* ViralTransformation: Happens to [[spoiler: the clone Raz. That is to say, the main character.]]
* YouAllLookFamiliar: The zombies all have the exact same model. More obvious than in other games because the only thing they wear is a solid-colored jumpsuit, normally blue but later [[PaletteSwap Palette Swapped]] to green.
!!The sequel provides examples of:
* AnimeHair: Arcano, lampshaded by an NPC who says it's weird and asks you to change it.
* BareYourMidriff: Every single woman in the entire game.
* TheCoatsAreOff: Kondo in the first fight.
* CoolAirship: Billboard Island turns into one.
* EnemyMine: The owners of Billboard Island force Arcano to fight with them after he tried to rob them.
* GirlishPigtails: Arcano's younger sister, Nina, has these.
* GoshDarnItToHeck: Averted when Arcano says both "shit" and "bastard" in the first cutscenes.
* HighAltitudeBattle
* LaserGuidedAmnesia: The ITP have been doing this to people against them, so they can't fully remember what top secret information they can remember. For example, erasing Raz's memory of the events in the first game.
* ManInWhite
* NoEscapeButDown: At the very start, Arcano jumps out a window.
* NoExportForYou: ''OverBlood 2'' never made it to America, but was released in PAL regions and Japan.
* OnlyInItForTheMoney: Arcano, after he's finished the first job he was paid for he does decide to work for free.
* OrWasItADream: Did Arcano see the spirit of his dead sister or was it a dream?
* TheOtherDarrin: Raz is played by another actor, at least in the English version.
* RubberMan: Kondo is this in his "green" form.
* {{Seers}}: Arcano has visions of the future.
* TortureAlwaysWorks: Raz and the other scientists were tortured after they survived the explosions before the game started.
