* DropInNemesis: In one dungeon (the cavern leading to Castle Düsterburg) is a sword in a stone next to a LavaPit. If you choose to take it, a giant hand comes out of the lava and kills you. Considering this happens in a dungeon [[EverythingTryingToKillYou full of deadly traps]], you could've seen it coming.

Implausible, you say? Not if you're playing ''[[https://duesterburg.rpg-atelier.net/downloads.php Unterwegs in Düsterburg]]'' (''On the road in Düsterburg''), a free German [[UsefulNotes/RPGMaker RPG Maker 2000]] game released in 2003. While its plot is [[ClicheStorm relatively clichéd]], it [[Administrivia/TropesAreTools ties its elements together neatly]], and is prized in the German RPG Maker community for its production values, witty dialog and atmosphere.
