Trick, you might wanna run...

Even in a series as delightful as this, there are still some moments that could give you the creeps...

Main Series

    Chapter 1: Lonely Wolf Treat 
  • Treat got separated from her pack due to an avalanche blocking the way back. She has to go through a bunny village where people are terrified of her and move in a vacant cabin. The poor wolf has almost no food or money. It's a good thing Mochi came along when she did...

    Chapter 4: Wandering Wolf Trick 
  • In an optional side quest, you can meet Mochi's aunt Castella and find out about Juju's backstory. Yes, Juju is a massive jerk and her bigotry cannot be justified one way or another, but you can't deny that the circumstances she lost her father Mango in are terrifying. You're forced to run away to safety, leaving your loved one behind in potential danger. No one should ever go through that.
  • Wormwood is populated by creepy, mask-wearing cultist mice who lure travelers into their village with the promise of food and hospitality, and then eat them. That's right, in this universe of cute animal people, mice are more terrifying than wolves and foxes.

    Chapter 5: Dreaming Treat 
  • Imagine one day coming home and finding out someone completely trashed your front yard while you were away. You don't know who did it, you don't know why they did it, and you don't know when they're going to strike again. Really, it's no wonder Treat and Mochi didn't feel safe living in that cabin anymore and decided to move out as soon as they could.

    The Bad Endings 
  • Hoo boy, chapter 1's bad ending. The main storyline has a few creepy moments, but this one turns the game into an outright horror story.
    • When Treat's family defected from the old pack, the pack's elder Tundra refused to let them leave, and a fight ensued. As a result, Candy now has an Ear Notch and Tundra ended up blind in one eye.
    • Because Mochi never becomes friends with Treat and the foxes in this path, Juju's xenophobic behavior ends up taking a turn for the worse, to the point where she tries to outright murder Treat in the middle of the night, only to get thrown off a cliff herself in the ensuing scuffle.
    • Timber and Tundra seem like kind and hospitable people at first, but they are secretly abusing and manipulating Treat into living by their rules.
      • Tundra convinces Treat to change into her wolf form, which makes her unable to speak English and gives the rabbits even more reason to fear her.
      • Timber tells Treat that it's okay to eat a rabbit that's already dead, because leaving it would only be a waste of resources.
      • After Juju falls to her death, Timber blames Treat for killing her, knowing she is too panicked to confirm or deny it. And since they can't carry the body back on their own, he decides they should just eat the body then and there. It is at this point Treat realizes Timber was never actually "scavenging" for rabbit meat; he's been actively killing rabbits this whole time.

Other

    DATE TREAT 
  • For a joke game, Date Mochi is ridiculously dark, a glaring contrast to the previous installments of DATE TREAT (as long as you don't get the Secret Sexy Ending). Not only has Mochi gone completely off her rocker following the garden incident, but Annie and May are outright enabling her behavior by helping her torture and kill the player character, and potentially everyone else in Frosting.
