4''The [=McMilian=] Tree Lot'' is a horror game developed by Creator/ZedTechnician.

6The cool wintery months are finally here and it's time once again to open [=McMilian's=] Tree Lot to the general public. The owner Cynthia happily waves off the second last of her many customers when she realizes that something is terribly wrong this evening. One of people who ventured inside the lot hasn't come back out in several hours, meaning they're either lost... or trapped.

8Knowing of the dark history behind the place Cynthia grabs her trusty shotgun Ms. Reliable and ventures forth into the lot to make sure a tragic fate hasn't befallen her unsuspecting guest. Unfortunately, as the lights begin to dim over the empty tree lot it starts to come alive... and not in any good ways.

10!!The [=McMilian=] Tree Lot provides examples of:
11* BadMoonRising: During the last loop before Cynthia reaches the center of the lot a massive blood red moon rises over the horizon.
12* EldritchLocation: In the light of day the [=McMilian=] Tree Lot seems perfectly safe but at night it turns into a near endless maze of looping terrain stalked by homicidal wooden nutcracker soldiers. [[WhenTreesAttack Then you get to what lies at the center of the cursed lot...]]
13* MultipleEndings: Per the usual Zed_Technician game, what ending you get depends on whether Cynthia accomplishes her mission or gets caught by the nutcrackers pursuing her.
14* RhymesOnADime: Throughout the game, the narration and the characters themselves are speaking and telling the story in rhyme.
15* ShotgunsAreJustBetter: Cynthia goes through her venture into the lot with her handy shotgun, shooting down sentient nutcrackers that try to stop her from saving her missing customer and escaping back alive.
16* TwistedChristmas: The game takes place in a large tree lot filled with giant hostile nutcrackers during colder weather, though aside from these elements there isn't much linking the game to any particular celebration or festivities. The [=McMilian=] Tree Lot was also released shortly after the 2023 holiday season, implying it was meant to be a Christmas release that got delayed a bit.
