Chaos Architecture	comment	A TV show usually has a number of recurring locations: the protagonist's house, his workplace, the Local Hangout, you name it. Soon enough, the appearance of these locations becomes very familiar to the viewer... until this trope happens. This is sort of a The Other Darrin, but for sets: a location, which is said to be the same we know is now represented by a different set. It goes beyond a simple redecoration: the interior is completely different, as if someone destroyed a building from the inside and rebuilt it with a different layout in mind. And for more cognitive dissonance, there is no explanation for the change, the outside shot remains the same and the characters act like they don't even notice it. This often happens between an unaired pilot and the actual pilot (no examples for this case, please), between the pilot and the second episode, and between a season finale and the next season premiere. This trope can also be seen in Video Games when a location that is available in multiple games in one series changes considerably between two games without any in-story justification. This is one of the Acceptable Breaks from Reality as no-one wants to explore the same actual area game after game (unless the gameplay is focused away from level layout). A clever game designer make things look different by changing the various Insurmountable Waist Height Fences and Invisible Walls, but often it's as if someone just tore down buildings and geography and rebuilt them from scratch, in different locations. If a Justified Trope, it's because something changed (or blew up) the world on a fundamental level. For aversions, see Remixed Level, Hard Mode Filler, and good old fashioned Backtracking. Roguelike games usually feature Chaos Architecture as part of the genre, in the form of randomly generated dungeons. See also Bag of Spilling, Expansion Pack World. Do not confuse with Bizarrchitecture or Alien Geometries (though the latter may be used as an in-universe justification). Not related to The Maze.

Twilight Princess has the the Forest Temple, the Water Temple and the Temple of Time from Ocarina Of Time while A Link Between Worlds has the Eastern Palace, the Desert Palace and the Tower of Hera from A Link To The Past and they all have drastically different architecture (although the Eastern Palace's layout is loosely based on the original's).

Chaos Architecture / int_11292d9c	comment	In Dreamfall: The Longest Journey, the sequel to The Longest Journey, Zoe goes to the starting area of the first game and it is very similar in layout to the old game except with a bit more details that would supposedly have been between the area transitions of the first game. Most other changes were justified by the fact that the neighborhood since the first game also went from being a bohemian artsy neighborhood to a run down slum in the 15 years between Dreamfall and The Longest Journey and what made that area interesting was seeing how it changed. We also go to see the upper floors of the border house, April Ryan's home in the first game.

Chaos Architecture / int_15a26aad	comment	In Arena, every province is visited. When later games show those provinces, they often look quite a bit different. Some tiny villages are now huge cities, some huge cities are now gone without a trace, some huge cities have popped up where there weren't any previously, and the ones that remain often have very different layouts and appearances than they did in Arena. In-universe, if the discrepancy is mentioned at all, one of the series' reality warping Time Crash events is usually blamed in the Cosmic Retcon fashion.

Chaos Architecture / int_1861f45b	comment	Starcraft: When you recapture Korhal in the Zerg campaign of the expansion, Mengsk specifically says he's putting his capital in the same place as before, but the missions there are on very different maps. Korhal is harder to justify; but if you squint really hard, the final terran stronghold at the bottom left edge of the map in mission 4 of the Zerg campaign sorta looks like the top right edge of Mengsk's base in terran mission 5 (where his command center is at). The Brood War Overmind's location in Brood War changes completely from map to map. In Protoss 5, it is below a large cliff, on a large flat area, with a lava river northwest. In Terran 8, the Overmind is on top of a large plateau, with no terrain changes or lava for some distance. In Zerg 8, it is on a small, north/south oriented plateau. Somewhat justified after the Protoss mission; you can temporarily kill the Overmind, and it might have respawned in a different spot without Khalis as a beacon. The Area where the overmind sets itself up at the end of the original game zerg campaign is very different from where the protoss fight it in their campaign. Well, it did come down as a meteor, perhaps the strike was powerful enough to reshape local geography. One exception: There is a bit of continuity with the Xel'Naga temple. Looking carefully at the mission 8 map, the Protoss staging area from mission 3 has now become a zerg base and the top edge of the temple island is what you originally invaded in the former mission. Why the Zerg have retaken the temple from you in the intervening time or why you're attacking from the other side is never addressed though. Both the Zerg taking over and the absence of a Protoss base in the old position can be justified by the coup which took place in the meantime.

Chaos Architecture / int_1aacbbc9	comment	Dragon Age: Dragon Age: Origins and Dragon Age II more-or-less avert this; the sequel takes place in an entirely separate part of the world, pretty much a kingdom and a half away. Dragon Age II features not one but two timeskips, and most of Kirkwall stays the same with just minor changes (for instance, a manor that had the north wing blocked off now has the south wing blocked off, etc.) This includes certain things you'd EXPECT to change... Fenris, for instance, never bothers to so much as pick up the scattered debris — or even corpses — from "his" house's previous owner's hasty exit. Played straight in Dragon Age: Inquisition, however. The two returning locations from Origins, Haven and Redcliffe village, look entirely different from their depictions in Origins. Not only have buildings changed places and moved around, the geography is completely different as well. Haven at least might be justified as the Chantry moving in after the dragon cultists from Origins cleared out and rebuilt the place as a sanctuary for pilgrims traveling to the Temple of Sacred Ashes. Redcliffe, however, has no explanation

Chaos Architecture / int_1f140feb	comment	The geography of Arda (particularly Middle Earth) changes significantly several times between (and within) The Silmarillion and The Lord of the Rings. The world is said to have suffered severe alterations during the struggle between Melkor and the Valar (including the catastrophic destruction of two mountains at both ends of the world, which in turn led to widespread destruction by fire, and the desolation of the original homeland of the Valar; the destruction of Melkor's first fortress also had severe consequences). The War of Wrath at the end of the First Age led to the continent of Beleriand being almost completely ruined and sunken (only a small portion of its eastern edge remained). The maps in The Silmarillion and The Lord of the Rings may seem to depict a similar western edge of a continent, but the latter actually shows the part to the right of the area shown in the first, with the edge having moved back a huge amount to the east. And the most severe modification was towards the end of the Second Age, where not only was the island of Númenor sunk (which in turn caused severe seismic effects across Middle Earth), but the actual shape of the world was changed; the continent of Aman was removed from Arda, and the formerly Flat World was made into a sphere.

Landscapes have changed and some small villages (notably Beetletun) have prospered between games. Changes are largely justified though - 250 years have passed between games, and the rise of the Elder Dragons have caused shifts to the layout of different regions.

Thelma had the Master Bedroom, her sister Fran had the second bedroom. Thelma gave the smallest bedroom to granddaughter (Vinton's daughter) Sonya. Grandson Buzz (Vinton's son) was given the attic. Vinton got the basement, and was later joined there by his second wife Naomi. When the show went to domestic syndication, Thelma's gave grandson Bubba (Eunice's son) her now deceased sister Fran's room. Vinton and Naomi complain about remaining in the basement and not getting an upstairs bedroom. Considering Sonya and Buzz left for college, their bedroom and attic room should have be open for Vinton and Naomi (or Bubba). The basement room also changes between the second and third seasons. In the first two seasons it's an entirely finished room, with wood paneled walls. As of the third season, it's only partially finished with only framing separating the bedroom from the furnace and hot water heater.

One of the most striking is a fire puzzle in Palace Midas: what was little more than a sewer with a few flaming pillars that were laughably easy to hop across in the original, became a gigantic room filled with ornate rotating platforms spewing jets of flame in all directions.

Chaos Architecture / int_2f203125	comment	Justified in Shin Megami Tensei: Persona 3, with Tartarus, as it, like the shadows, breaks down at the end of every midnight hour, and thus comes back at the start of the next midnight hour, meaning that there is a likely chance of the tower, besides important points such as the entrance, will completely change in their layout. They also state/imply (could be wrong on this) that the tower is a shadow as well, and that would add a more reasonable justification for the change, as all shadows are based on human emotion and events day to day change there would be reason for the tower, one of the largest shadows, to change. Similarly justified with Persona 5. The sprawling underground dungeon of Mementos has completely randomized floors outside of the entrance, rest stops and end platforms between paths. Morgana, on your first visit, outright states that with Mementos being the shared palace of the general public, it has the fused cognition of a countless number of people, and as such is always shifting around.

Chaos Architecture / int_34e0e9fc	comment	Additionally, Strong Bad's Cool Game for Attractive People uses a consistent layout... that contradicts most if not all of the toons. The most egregious example is putting the entrance to Strong Bad's computer room on the opposite side from where it has always been (first runner-up is probably making Strong Mad's room only accessible via the bathroom, which defies all known laws of building design in addition to continuity). The game lampshades this almost immediately in the first episode: As you learn about new locations, you're allowed to place them anywhere you like on the map. Strong Bad's house can be next door to or far from any other location without affecting gameplay. In the second episode, the map is taken away, and Strong Bad switches to using the discarded game board from a Risk-esque strategy game. This time, though, the placement of locations matter. But since when was the King of Town's castle visible from Marzipan's back yard?

Haven at least might be justified as the Chantry moving in after the dragon cultists from Origins cleared out and rebuilt the place as a sanctuary for pilgrims traveling to the Temple of Sacred Ashes. Redcliffe, however, has no explanation

Chaos Architecture / int_3a64aba3	comment	Shantae series: The layout of Scuttle Town changes with every game. For example, Sky's Hatchery and the Item Shop are separate buildings in Risky's Revenge, different rooms in one large multi-storey building in Pirate's Curse, and separate buildings again in Half-Genie Hero. A possible justification is that it keeps being rebuilt every time it's being invaded (which is almost always at the start of each game). Shantae and the Pirate's Curse brings back some areas from Shantae: Risky's Revenge, but since the main action now takes place in new islands, the returning areas are massively simplified. The Pumpkin Field and Lilac Field are combined into the Scarecrow Field. The Tangle Forest is only one screen instead of the large, multi-layered area in the previous game. The Mayor's Seaside Retreat was at the end of a lengthy obstacle course, but now it's just a short walk away from Shantae's lighthouse.

This conveniently solves the problem of the entire world being more or less explored out by the end of the GBA games. How come we didn't see all these ancient kingdoms in the previous games? The Golden Sun did it. The Golden Sun effectively overdosed the world on magic. When that happened, everything changed. Mountain ranges shot up, an active volcano was bulldozed by its power, waterfalls between different levels of the same ocean sprung up... and a good portion of the eroded world was restored. It's implied that all of the old technology was excavated from the restored lands following the Golden Sun's rise.

Chaos Architecture / int_457b671e	comment	The architecture of CTU in 24 changes several times over the course of the series. During the jump from the pilot episode (which was filmed months before any other episodes were commissioned) to the entirety of season one, the office added several more cubicles and additional rooms that weren't previously seen. During the jump to season 3 to season 4, the entire layout of the office changes into a much more open-space setting, with a situation room located right next to the office cubicles (instead of in its own wing, as before), and different layouts of video monitors, decor and architecture. It’s potentially justified in regards to the interior of CTU LA. The building takes heavy damage from a bomb during Day 2. There was a three year Time Skip going into the third season with the building mostly the same. It's not until Day 4 that the building has been fully changed. One fan theory is that it was renovated over time and that due to the nature of it being the regional headquarters of a major government building that it wasn't as simple as shutting the place down and relocating during the work. From the fourth season until the final season in Los Angeles the main CTU set was unchanged and remained consistent. Special note should be given to the situation room and the office of the agent in charge. The locations of both places on the main floor of CTU have been consistent since Day 1. A straighter example of this trope comes into play when you look at the exterior of the building. At some times CTU has had a typical multistory garage. At others it's had a fairly wide open parking lot.

The area was left almost identical to the way it was in the original game, though the Jedi Academy is now in ruins, and the colony's other buildings were repurposed by new colonists (and were much closer to each other than originally). The player's ship, the Ebon Hawk, was also identical to its original appearance. Korriban was also the same, with the Sith Academy in ruins. The grounds outside Korriban, however, were very much smaller then they were in the first game. The Valley of the Dark Lords on Korriban changed between game series, too. In Jedi Knight: Jedi Academy, chronologically about four thousand years later, it was in ruins, but that could not explain the changes of layout, especially inside the tomb of Marka Ragnos or that the other tombs around it are not visible. Of course, these games were otherwise unrelated, set thousands of years apart, of different genres (Academy is a First-Person Shooter), and not made by the same people (BioWare for KOTOR vs. Raven Software for Academy). A good comparison is on this page of a Knights of the Old Republic II Let's Play. In Star Wars: The Old Republic it has a third completely different layout.

All are supposed to be New York City stand-ins. Vice City was also a level in the original GTA, it's nothing like in the eponymous game. San Andreas appeared in the first GTA, too, but that one is obviously not referring to the same place as in GTA: San Andreas, as the former is a city and the latter is a state. Such naming conflicts are Truth in Television. Grand Theft Auto V takes place in a new Los Santos that, while retaining a few locations from the GTA: SA version as Mythology Gags, is otherwise completely different. It's completely justified because they all take place in different canons; the next four games after III having explicit ties to that one and to each other was the exception for the series at that point.

Chaos Architecture / int_6053d9f9	comment	Silent Hill: The events that happen in Silent Hill occur in the newer part of town, north of the lake. In Silent Hill 2, and in Silent Hill 3 when you do visit the town proper, your character is in the older part of town south of the lake. Of course this just accounts for the time when the town is being remotely normal. When your character slips into the Other side of the town, just be glad if you're still standing on something solid...ish. The hospital in the first game grows an extra fourth floor as you shift to the nightmare dimension. At the end of the first game, an... event... causes the architecture of both the "real" and "unreal" sides of the town to topple into an unnerving mishmash, where familiar environments connect to each other in new and bizarre ways. Your save file, which always keeps you apprised of where you are, will helpfully tell you that your current location is "Nowhere". The Order's church at the end of the third game is a similar mishmash. Another example occurs in the hotel of the second game, the "normal" version is how James saw it three years ago, then its alternate form is a mishmash of its present day appearance (burnt and flooded) and a Dark World version (doors that warp between each other, a hallway that doesn't exist in the real world, otherworld decor, etc.) The historical society abyss, where the space-time and real-otherworld continuums are also out of whack, i.e. descending a thousand feet via the many holes, only to find oneself back at ground level outside. In Homecoming, Alchemilla Hospital looks vastly different and is a mental hospital as opposed to a normal hospital, probably because the game was made by a completely different developer. One of the crazier examples would be Silent Hill: Shattered Memories, where whenever you enter the nightmare world, everything freezes over and the architecture goes completely insane. It's most obvious during the mall and pawn shop levels, the former of which features the buildings on the street doubling on top of each other, and the framework for further building on top of that, such as the hardware store and cafe becoming veritable towers of ice. In the latter, what was once a small pawn shop, about the size of a two-story, two bedroom house is now the most ridiculous Escher-esque Magical Mystery Doors Mind Screw you're likely to see. Silent Hill: Homecoming revisits the same area as the first game, but there is now a graveyard that wasn't there before, and a giant prison called Overlook Penitentiary has appeared in the middle of the town. The same prison returns in Silent Hill: Downpour, except with a completely different layout and location (it's now on an island in the middle of Toluca Lake). According to Tomm Hulett, the Overlook Penitentiary in Homecoming was just a manifestation of the town, with the one in Downpour being the real prison.

The first game had a distinctive Wide-Open Sandbox layout that covers all five boroughs, with the Corleone compound set in a very secluded section of Little Italy, surrounded by trees on prime real estate. The sequel, on the other hand, completely does away with the first game's layout, totally redesigning the New York area, limiting you to only a small section of the inner city and adding an airport connecting you to the similarly limited Miami and Havana areas. The compound itself, previously set apart, is also heavily redesigned and positioned a stone's throw away from the downtown/Manhattan/Brooklyn(?) buildings.

In Silent Hill 2, and in Silent Hill 3 when you do visit the town proper, your character is in the older part of town south of the lake. Of course this just accounts for the time when the town is being remotely normal. When your character slips into the Other side of the town, just be glad if you're still standing on something solid...ish.

Chaos Architecture / int_69fa7496	comment	In the Disney Ducks Comic Universe, Donald Duck's house achitecture and placement in Duckburg have been depicted inconsistently throughout the comics, including those with the same authors. The same happens with his Uncle Scrooge's money bin. The one constant thing is that it's on top of a hill. Not even that remains constant, as even Carl Barks himself sometimes put Uncle Scrooge's money bin on the street level. That was probably deliberate, as Barks told later that he made changes to Duckburg's geography on purpose so that there wouldn't be any standard definition about where it was and what it was like. Of course Don Rosa took a very different approach and wanted to standardize everything.

Chaos Architecture / int_6bff288f	comment	Mostly averted in Banjo-Tooie. Spiral Mountain and Gruntilda's Lair from the first game are accessible and remain mostly the same. The only difference is that an earthquake caused by Gruntilda's sisters plowing through a wall in the Hag 1 and also their troops ravaging the area have added a lot of debris and caused a cave-in in the lair, making sure the game-designers didn't have to recreate the entire overworld from the first game.

Chaos Architecture / int_6c1d09b2	comment	Mostly averted in Fallout 2, in which the entire game map is set above the map for the original Fallout with only a little overlap; only a handful of locations on the top of the original map reappear here and for the most part they have been justifiably altered since decades have passed between the two games. Fallout 3, New Vegas, and 4 avoid the issue entirely by being set in entirely different areas (further east into Nevada for New Vegas, and the entire opposite side of the continent for 3 and 4). One particularly egregious example where this trope fits is Vault 15. In the eighty years since The Vault Dweller came here, a mountain has inexplicably come into existence. The entrance cavern has also completely changed, and the elevator shaft that linked levels 2 and 3 is now gone (the level 3 elevator entrance now connects to the shaft that once linked only the top two levels, even though the door hasn't moved to compensate).

It's most obvious during the mall and pawn shop levels, the former of which features the buildings on the street doubling on top of each other, and the framework for further building on top of that, such as the hardware store and cafe becoming veritable towers of ice. In the latter, what was once a small pawn shop, about the size of a two-story, two bedroom house is now the most ridiculous Escher-esque Magical Mystery Doors Mind Screw you're likely to see.

Chaos Architecture / int_6d8311c4	comment	Pokémon Gold and Silver: The player can go to Kanto from the first-generation games after becoming the Champion. Most of the changes are at least somewhat feasible: lots and lots of Insurmountable Waist Height Fences are destroyed, for example, as well as a family relocated due to the construction of the Magnet Train. Others, such as Mt. Moon changing from a labyrinth to a path with a single fork, the entire Indigo Plateau moving southwards, and Viridian Forest becoming a hedge maze, are just a little impossible. The most memorable change is perfectly possible, but hilariously crass: Pokémon Tower gets changed from a solemn, haunted graveyard for Pokémon to a radio tower. Apparently the three floors or so of graves were relocated to Mr. Fuji's tiny basement. There's also Cinnabar Island. Everything was destroyed in a volcanic eruption; all that's left is a rebuilt Pokémon Center, with the gym relocated to the otherwise-now-inaccessible Seafoam Islands. Cerulean Cave is also entirely inaccessible, though it's likely the work of Mewtwo; if you look around where the entrance should be, you can find a special item, the Berserk Gene. Viridian Forest was expanded back to a larger location in HeartGold and SoulSilver, as were the Seafoam Islands and Cerulean Cave (both of which got different layouts from FireRed/LeafGreen and the Gen I originals), thanks to the greater amount of data storage the Nintendo DS provided over the Game Boy Color.

Chaos Architecture / int_74f7210c	comment	Seen in any The Legend of Zelda game that happens in the Kingdom of Hyrule: the overworld retains some details yet is always different. This is justified because, with the exception of direct sequels, all Zelda games are centuries apart, allowing the kingdom's borders to shift, settlements to change, and rivers to change course. This was actually done fairly well between The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time and The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess, with the kingdom simply being a bit larger and the places more evenly distributed. The game also justifies why Midna wouldn't recognize the Palace of Twilight, her own home, by her commenting that Zant's dark magic warped it. One exception: Zelda II: The Adventure of Link has the "original" Hyrule of the first game recreated at the far southern end of the map, though it looks a lot smaller than in the first game; each tile represents a bigger area in II compared to The Legend of Zelda. It's also averted in The Legend of Zelda: A Link Between Worlds, where the world matches up quite well with the world from A Link to the Past. It happens when you visit dungeons from earlier games. Twilight Princess has the the Forest Temple, the Water Temple and the Temple of Time from Ocarina Of Time while A Link Between Worlds has the Eastern Palace, the Desert Palace and the Tower of Hera from A Link To The Past and they all have drastically different architecture (although the Eastern Palace's layout is loosely based on the original's). The Temple of Time in Twilight Princess is actually somewhat of an aversion, as the revisited part is clearly the same place, and the added section is inaccessible under normal circumstances (and may not even exist in the same physical plane as Hyrule). The areas of the Sacred Grove that are adjacent to the ruins do contain structures that weren't visible in Ocarina though, although these could be explained by the games being set centuries apart.

Chaos Architecture / int_755b343f	comment	Halo: The series makes you go through the control tower on Installation 04 three times. The first time in Halo: Combat Evolved you're ascending it to place Cortana there, and two levels later you're back to rescue Cortana (and your own ass). Then the installation is gone, never to be seen again...or is it? The very last level of Halo 3 has you returning to the control room where you intentionally activate the ring to stop the Flood. In Combat Evolved, the tower and the surrounding area is pretty much the same both times, albeit in a state of decay after the Flood hits it, while in the third game, the tower and control room are identical to how they were in the first game, but the surrounding area has changed quite a bit (for example, that walkway on the mountains wasn't there the first time). Justified though, since this technically isn't the same place, but a rebuild of the old place, since Master Chief obliterated the original structure in the first game. Somewhat justified in the case of High Charity, as it's been mostly converted by the Flood when you return to it in Halo 3, but the remaining original structures still look rather different than they did in Halo 2. New Mombasa got changed the most between Halo 2 and Halo 3: ODST, with the city being far more realistic and detailed in the latter. This is because of the updated game engine of ODST, as well as the fact that ODST's entire setting is in the city, whereas New Mombasa took up all of two levels in Halo 2. In Halo 4, the Forward Unto Dawn received a major design change in order to create a more interesting playspace. That said, Word of God is that its original Halo 3 design is still the canon one.

The Chaos Landscape between Dawn of the New World and Tales of Phantasia may seem extreme, as Olive, the desert oasis town in the latter game, is nowhere near Triet's location in the former, instead ending up somewhat closer to Asgard's location, but 4,000 years is a pretty long time for things to happen, especially given the climatic and ecological changes that accompany a society of iron age or higher. It would be stranger if nothing had changed at all- just look at the past four millennia IRL. There is also the case of the meteor strike and mana cannon powered destruction between games. Also averted at the same time. Most of the dungeons you visit in both games have near-identical layouts, right down to the puzzles used. The only differences occurring for the most part are those required due to changes in the gameplay mechanics.

Chaos Architecture / int_7988cb68	comment	This is mostly averted in the Mass Effect series, where successive games almost never revisit areas from previous games. One glaring exception is the Citadel space station, present in all three games, but in-universe, the station is huge and you visit different areas of it in different games. One exception to that, however, is the human councilor's office. In Mass Effect 2, it is the same room as the human embassy in Mass Effect, and the surrounding scenery matches as well. But in Mass Effect 3, it is a different room in a previously unseen part of the Citadel. This is somewhat justified in-universe with the explanation that the keepers on the Citadel will periodically reorganize rooms or alter architecture. Apparently it can sometimes be annoying for the people living on the Citadel, since the keepers do this without notice or explanation.

There have been fan suggestions that the bridge is a plug-in module that could be easily changed between each movie, but that doesn't really explain how the turbolifts moved.

In the first season, the appearance of the building is completely different and the parking lot is much bigger. Deleted scenes from season 1 also show a completely different staircase and a balcony, which doesn't exist from season 2 onwards. Minor example: right after Jim got promoted to co-regional manager in season 6, Creed and Devon's desk clump was replaced with a small office, and Creed changed desks, now facing Meredith. While such a change is realistic and justified, this can fall under this trope since nobody comments on it.

Chaos Architecture / int_8258e260	comment	Super Mario Bros.: Nearly every single game in Super Mario Bros., Paper Mario, Mario & Luigi, Mario Kart, Mario Party and all spinoffs takes place in the Mushroom Kingdom. You wouldn't know it without being told, however, since whole towns apparently appear, disappear and get moved around, places like Mario's house, Luigi's mansion and Bowser's castle get completely rebuilt once per game, and various landmarks can appear one game and be gone the next. Luigi's mansion is the only one to have a stated reason for this, as it can rebuild itself. There are a few things that carry over between games, notably unlike the rest of the kingdom. Peach's Castle always has a square layout, four short corner towers, a two-level tower in its middle and white walls with red roofs; it also typically has a town of some sort around it where all the Toads seem to live, though its layout and what it's actually called vary. Bowser typically resides in a place with a ton of lava. Note that these games don't actually have any continuity. This is official. One thing that seems to be becoming consistent in the Mushroom Kingdom is the front garden of Peach's Castle. Super Mario 64, Mario Kart 64, and Super Mario Galaxy all feature nearly identical versions of the front garden, except that in Galaxy, some of the further back parts are closed off and the cannon is gone. The house of the Mario Bros. changes through all the RPGs, starting with the first and up to Super Paper Mario. Whether Luigi lives alone or with Mario is also inconsistent, most conspicuously in Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga where he lives with Mario despite there being several references to Luigi's Mansion, at the end of which Luigi could purchase one of several houses depending on his accumulated funds. On that subject, in Mario Kart: Double Dash!! the A-rank new mansion is visible on Luigi's home course, but in Luigi's Mansion: Dark Moon the house shown in the opening cutscene is the D-rank new mansion.

Water Areas are removed however. You can't swim though the path Wakka takes Tidus to get to Besaid the first time or out at the beach.

There are random BUILDINGS falling out of the sky (by the command of an insane zombified clown, no less), fortresses that can be summoned out of the ground, and absurd amounts of perfectly square buildings, rave rooms, department stores and hot dog stands. The entirety of Madness Combat can be summed up as this trope.

Chaos Architecture / int_9d34190a	comment	The Elder Scrolls: In Arena, every province is visited. When later games show those provinces, they often look quite a bit different. Some tiny villages are now huge cities, some huge cities are now gone without a trace, some huge cities have popped up where there weren't any previously, and the ones that remain often have very different layouts and appearances than they did in Arena. In-universe, if the discrepancy is mentioned at all, one of the series' reality warping Time Crash events is usually blamed in the Cosmic Retcon fashion. Morrowind's Bloodmoon expansion takes place on the frigid northern island of Solstheim. In Skyrim's Dragonborn DLC, Solstheim is visited once again (200 years later in-universe). There are significant differences in the architecture of the Nordic barrows (which were largely simple stone caves with exteriors composed of megaliths in Bloodmoon), the terrain has become much different (in ways that can't simply be explained by the eruption of Red Mountain and glaciers), and the Thirsk mead hall has completely lost its second floor. The Skaal village has also moved in between Dragonborn and Bloodmoon, and there are now Dwemer ruins on Solstheim when there weren't any before. (Which is especially strange in the case of Nchardak, which is at sea and could not have reasonably been hidden underground.)

Chaos Architecture / int_9f89a5f0	comment	Pokémon: Cerulean Cave from Pokémon Red and Blue has had its layout changed in every single game it's appeared in (excluding the Gen I remakes, which reuse the layout from the original Red & Green — which still counts for non-Japanese players, since they never got those). The only consistent bits between them is that the cave has two floors and a basement, the second floor is a maze, and the basement has Mewtwo at the end of it. Pokémon Gold and Silver: The player can go to Kanto from the first-generation games after becoming the Champion. Most of the changes are at least somewhat feasible: lots and lots of Insurmountable Waist Height Fences are destroyed, for example, as well as a family relocated due to the construction of the Magnet Train. Others, such as Mt. Moon changing from a labyrinth to a path with a single fork, the entire Indigo Plateau moving southwards, and Viridian Forest becoming a hedge maze, are just a little impossible. The most memorable change is perfectly possible, but hilariously crass: Pokémon Tower gets changed from a solemn, haunted graveyard for Pokémon to a radio tower. Apparently the three floors or so of graves were relocated to Mr. Fuji's tiny basement. There's also Cinnabar Island. Everything was destroyed in a volcanic eruption; all that's left is a rebuilt Pokémon Center, with the gym relocated to the otherwise-now-inaccessible Seafoam Islands. Cerulean Cave is also entirely inaccessible, though it's likely the work of Mewtwo; if you look around where the entrance should be, you can find a special item, the Berserk Gene. Viridian Forest was expanded back to a larger location in HeartGold and SoulSilver, as were the Seafoam Islands and Cerulean Cave (both of which got different layouts from FireRed/LeafGreen and the Gen I originals), thanks to the greater amount of data storage the Nintendo DS provided over the Game Boy Color.

The layout of individual buildings and overall levels is of varying difference to the original missions. However, it's not the case that the protagonist is re-visiting these locales: they merely appear to him in flashback as he sleeps. It also helps that he's remembering them incorrectly.

Of course, it's been a very long time between games and much of it has fallen into ruins, but the game also shows that the entire Enrichment Center is composed of mobile, infinitely reconfigurable test chambers, so the trope is explicitly justified.

Chaos Architecture / int_a8a40154	comment	Postal 2 has a bit of this going for it. The expansion, Apocalypse Weekend, starts with the protagonist in the hospital for a self-inflicted gunshot wound, but the hospital he's in is completely different from the one that was in the original game, being much larger; the closest you get to an explanation is that upon exiting the hospital, the map name briefly shown upon loading the next one is given as "Lower Paradise", indicating you're in a different area of the city (although that doesn't answer why said part of the city wasn't at least visible on the map you had your daily errands written on). The next DLC, Paradise Lost, causes some more issues by going back to the original game's maps and gameplay style - for the most part things make sense, with buildings only damaged by the nuclear explosion from the end of AW rather than somehow completely relocated (and the difference between repurposed buildings and newly-constructed ones is incredibly apparent), but the area the player ends up going to at the end, the "Hell Hole", is explained as the "heart" of the town and supposedly the source of the nuclear explosion - it's actually the exact same spot the player character's trailer had been at in the original game.

In Jedi Knight: Jedi Academy, chronologically about four thousand years later, it was in ruins, but that could not explain the changes of layout, especially inside the tomb of Marka Ragnos or that the other tombs around it are not visible. Of course, these games were otherwise unrelated, set thousands of years apart, of different genres (Academy is a First-Person Shooter), and not made by the same people (BioWare for KOTOR vs. Raven Software for Academy). A good comparison is on this page of a Knights of the Old Republic II Let's Play. In Star Wars: The Old Republic it has a third completely different layout.

Chaos Architecture / int_c43df4d8	comment	Doctor Who: The huge and mostly unseen TARDIS interior changes shape, as can be most clearly seen by comparing the various different appearances of the control room. The exterior, despite being stuck as a police box, also undergoes minor changes like altering the window size. The changing interior is eventually explained as the Doctor occasionally altering the TARDIS' desktop theme, as well as the destruction and repair of old rooms; in fact if you know the layout you can walk between them. Coal Hill School first appeared as a studio set in 1963. When the show revisited it in 1988, a school in Hammersmith was used for the exteriors. When it appeared in the 2014 and 2015 series, a different school in Wales was used. Obviously many schools have changed site or been rebuilt since 1963, so this is perhaps more justified than some of the other examples. When it's used as the setting for Class, it's a much more modern building, and this is noted in-universe as a rebuild. "The Day of the Doctor" introduces as an important location a certain barn on Gallifrey. When it reappears in "Listen" and "Hell Bent" it has suddenly acquired a loft — keeping in mind that In-Universe, the chronological order of the barn's appearances is "Listen", "The Day of the Doctor", "Hell Bent" — so it has a loft, then it doesn't, then it does.

Chaos Architecture / int_d98c0a73	comment	In season 5 of Teen Wolf the set of the high school's library was altered significantly, and the set was a reused version of Derek's loft from seasons 3 and 4. There may, however, be an unstated explanation for this set change: the library of Beacon Hills High School was the location of a massive attack by the kanima in season 2, and after filming transferred from Atlanta to Los Angeles starting in season 3, the shots of the library were noticeably different, though it could have been argued that the set was the same as the season 1/season 2 library OR the season 5/season 6 library. In other words, the season 3/season 4 shots of the library feature quite ambiguous shots, giving quite a bit of room for imagining the rest of the library by not showing very much of the library itself while still managing to imply that the scenes were taking place within the school library. It's like the producers KNEW that Derek would leave the show and they'd give the set for his loft to become the library... Suspicious...

However, the mansion (which has been owned by the Edisons for at least 200 years) has less floors in the sequel than it does in the original. Even stranger, Day of the Tentacle has you going back 200 years and forward 200 in time, and the mansion is laid out roughly the same in both of those time periods, too!

Chaos Architecture / int_dbce0953	comment	Pikmin: The main setting of the games, the "Distant Planet," changes rapidly and radically between the two games... which is rather conspicuous, considering that Olimar apparently departed for the planet again immediately upon returning back to his home planet of Hocotate. He makes mention of this a handful of times in his journal entries about the treasures and creatures he encounters. Same goes for the Forest of Hope, now Awakening Wood; and Distant Spring, now Perplexing Pool. While the basic layout is the same, the actual features are different. May be justified as Olimar and his Pikmin are only the size of a penny, so minor changes to us would be huge changes to them. The many caves of Pikmin 2 are much more noticeable, though, as they change every time you leave and reenter. Also of note is that in Pikmin 2, it's made far more blatant that the "Distant Planet" is Earth than it was in the first game. Accordingly, many of the changes seem to be clear signs of human development encroaching on the former wilds. As for the time scale, it's somewhat implied that the Distant Planet is distant enough for the trip to take quite a while.'

The Pumpkin Field and Lilac Field are combined into the Scarecrow Field. The Tangle Forest is only one screen instead of the large, multi-layered area in the previous game. The Mayor's Seaside Retreat was at the end of a lengthy obstacle course, but now it's just a short walk away from Shantae's lighthouse.

Chaos Architecture / int_dc500fbe	comment	Tales of Zestiria is set in a sizable fantasy-medieval-European continent. Prequel Tales of Berseria features a large, sprawling archipelago. Discussion of overseas exploration and far-flung lands in both games suggests they're set in different parts of the same world, until you start finding places in Berseria that are very similar to places in Zestiria, and not because of reused assets. Late in Berseria you reawaken the Four Elemental Empyreans, godlike beings who reshape the world as a side-effect of being awake and acting in the world. Not a lot will noticeably change in a single human lifetime but over the millennium between games, maps will have to be redrawn. A lot.

Chaos Architecture / int_e25322af	comment	Homestar Runner: The cartoons rely heavily on Geographic Flexibility, to the point where even interior layouts vary; the house of the Brothers Strong, in particular. For example, the TV room is sometimes implied to be part of a finished basement; other times it is treated as if it were on the main floor. Additionally, Strong Bad's Cool Game for Attractive People uses a consistent layout... that contradicts most if not all of the toons. The most egregious example is putting the entrance to Strong Bad's computer room on the opposite side from where it has always been (first runner-up is probably making Strong Mad's room only accessible via the bathroom, which defies all known laws of building design in addition to continuity). The game lampshades this almost immediately in the first episode: As you learn about new locations, you're allowed to place them anywhere you like on the map. Strong Bad's house can be next door to or far from any other location without affecting gameplay. In the second episode, the map is taken away, and Strong Bad switches to using the discarded game board from a Risk-esque strategy game. This time, though, the placement of locations matter. But since when was the King of Town's castle visible from Marzipan's back yard?

Nevertheless, the mere passage of centuries does not explain how the individual towns do not resemble each other in the slightest. Castle Britannia, for example, is constantly adding and removing floors throughout the games. The disappearance of at least one of the continents, the Lands of Danger and Despair, is explained when you visit it in Ultima VII Part II — Serpent's Isle.

Justified between The Longest Journey and Dreamfall: The Longest Journey, as there is a 10 year Time Skip between the storylines of the two games, in which time the fanatical Azadi invaded the city, replaced the temple with their own Evil Tower of Ominousness, and installed several Steampunk contraptions throughout the city. However, between Dreamfall and Dreamfall Chapters, the changes are more artistic. The two games set right after one another, so In-Universe not much should have changed. But to utilize the more modern game engine, the city is expanded to give room for more exploration, and the layout of certain parts are also changed.

Then, starting with the fourth, all the buildings and the school's location were changed around (including in flashbacks taking place before the first game).

Except for Ridley still being in lower Norfair, there are no other analogues to the original game. Metroid: Zero Mission, being a retelling of the original, is surprisingly faithful to it (down to the same ledges that you jump on, sometimes), but once you kill Mother Brain and finish the game, the plot goes firmly off the rails and Samus goes to places that never existed in the original, including a couple rooms between the Space Pirates' mothership and the rest of the game which look like the Wrecked Ship from Super Metroid.

Chaos Architecture / int_fa5e90fd	comment	Mostly justified in City of Heroes, where zone overhauls are either works in progress (Faultline) security countermeasures (Rikti Warzone), or were there all along (universities). The exception is door missions, which are assigned a random map each visit. You can exit part one of a two-door mission, turn around, and enter the same door to access a completely different map. Praetoria mostly averts this, as specific missions with specific maps are tied to specific doors (I.E. A mission directing you to the Ministry of Technology will always send you to the same building). Of course, Praetoria also lacks random missions, which means that random door assignment isn't necessarily needed.
