10!''Tasokare Hotel'' contains examples of:
11* AmnesiacHero: Neko Tsukahara, as well as most of the hotel guests when they first arrive at the hotel.
12* AnimalMotifs: Neko's name is homonymous with the Japanese word for 'cat', and has a cat-like mouth and is described as having 'dead fish-like eyes'.
13* AntiPoopSocking: Like most free-to-play mobile visual novels, you are given 5 free story tickets every day, and there are points where you have to complete missions in order to proceed with the story.
14* BefriendingTheEnemy: [[spoiler: In 'Another End', Neko offers to team up with Osoto as an accomplice in his crimes in return for leaving Atori alone.]]
15* EarnYourBadEnding: Another End. You have to make certain choices at four different decision points in order to get this ending, making this ending tougher to obtain than the other endings, but not any more favourable...
16* EarnYourHappyEnding: With a plethora of bad endings in the game that Neko could end up getting, she has to make the right choices to find the GoldenEnding to [[spoiler: save Atori and send Osoto to hell.]]
17* EvolvingTitleScreen: The game's title screen changes over the progress of the game; obtaining the true ending in a chapter adds the character's portrait to the title screen. Completing all of the endings changes the title screen image to the one above.
18* GottaCatchEmAll: There is a CG gallery with images, as well as character pages with the developers' notes, that can be unlocked if the player gets the Early Completion Bonus. They can also be released with coins if the player fails to get the Early Completion Bonus.
19* TheManyDeathsOfYou: Neko can die in various ways in the game, throughout all of the bad endings. She can [[spoiler:get poisoned by an octopus, escape to the real world alone after discovering Osoto's true character, and get stabbed by him again in the real world, get pushed onto the train tracks in Atori's place by Osoto, get turned into a daruma doll by Osoto if she fails in her interrogation of him, get taken away by him if she confronts Osoto at the station without solving Kiriko's puzzle box, get struck by Osoto and lose all of her memories again, and thus being doomed to stay in the Hotel forever if she attempts to inform Atori when she discovered Osoto's true character.]]
20* MultipleEndings: Featured in most of the chapters. In some chapters, making the wrong decision results in the [[spoiler:guests(s) dying, or otherwise getting a bad ending for their chapter, thus their portraits will not be added to the title screen]].
21* PlatonicLifePartners: [[spoiler:Neko]] and [[spoiler:Osoto]] become this in [[spoiler:Another End.]]
22* RaceAgainstTheClock: In Chapter 2 and Chapter 8, there are moments where you are given only 10 seconds to choose the right item to use, or you will get a bad ending.
23* StalkerWithoutACrush: In Chapter 7, [[spoiler:Masaki Osoto]] is revealed to be this to [[spoiler:Haruto Atori out of jealousy that his parents favoured him over himself]], when Neko discovers [[spoiler:the hidden room in Osoto's room filled with torture equipment and a wall filled with Atori's pictures that had been secretly taken.]]
24* TakingYouWithMe:
25** In Chapter 3, [[spoiler:Kyoko]] attempts to do this to [[spoiler:Toru]] in both routes that Neko can end up being on in that chapter, when it is revealed that [[spoiler:while Toru survived, she died.]]
26** In Chapter 8, Neko has the option of [[spoiler:answering Kiriko that she was prepared to go to hell]] in order to [[spoiler:send Osoto to hell, which will lead her to the True Ending of that chapter.]] Also, in the same chapter, [[spoiler:Osoto tries to bring Neko with him when she opened the Gates of Hell to send him to hell.]]
27* TemporalParadox: Averted. [[spoiler: Neko (and Ruri later on, too, in the special stories) time travels to the moment right before Atori was murdered to prevent the murder and deal with Osoto (by either sending him to hell or to the police), consequently preventing her own murder in the new timeline, and would have thus never gone to Tasokare Hotel, but was able to achieve all of that without causing any time paradoxes.]]
28* TimeTravelTenseTrouble: In Chapter 8, this exchange takes place when [[spoiler:Neko opens Kiriko's box to send Osoto to hell.]]
29-->[[spoiler:'''Masaki Osoto:''' I remember now! In the future, I've been to hell because of you!]]
30-->[[spoiler:'''Neko Tsukahara:''' Your English grammar was wrong!]]
