* TheReveal: [[spoiler: When Avery's guard robot scans you with a DNA analyzer, stating that you are him. Minutes later, Avery himself explains that you're actually [[CloningBlues a clone of him]], whom he placed in the DARLA pod as a test subject to allow the city's robots to understand humans.]]

* BorderPatrol: The Hunter robots, who can appear out of nowhere and send you straight back to your apartment, as you're not allowed to be wandering the city. There's no telling where they'll come from, and getting caught too many times results in a game over.

* ForbiddenZone: The upper Compass Tower is off limits to any and all Robot City robots. Having Alpha with you lets you [[LoopholeAbuse sidestep this rule]]. [[spoiler: Then things turn suspicious when Supervisor Creon appears when you get there.]]



* LastSecondEndingChoice: [[spoiler: Twice in a row. When Avery lets you choose what to do with Robot City, the game turns back to the terminal that enables or disables the city's self-destruct program. Then Katherine appears to propose leaving in a spacecraft she found.]]

* FieryCoverUp: [[spoiler: What Avery decides to do with Robot City at the end, believing it too far gone to save. If you and Katherine fail to get off-world before it blows up, this trope plays to its full conclusion, leaving Avery with a clean slate.]]
