Video Game Flamethrowers Suck: The flamethrowers carried by the mooks have a very short range, making it easy to run away from those types of enemies.

Musical Gameplay

comment
Musical Gameplay: One of the game's main selling points. Nearly everything you do influences the drum solo that is the background music in some way. Being near more guards causes the drums to become more intense, with a cymbal crash playing each time you splatter a guard. As you move away from the guards' sights, the drum solo slowly dies down. The rhythm and sound of the drums also changes depending on what kind of area you're in.

 Ape Out (Video Game) / int_354c4dc0
comment
Bioweapon Beast: Presumably, the ape is this: it's strong enough to break through hardened glass walls, rip steel doors off their hinges, throw humans with enough force to reduce them to bloody splatters, and heal bullet wounds (assuming the healing in-between sections isn't just a gameplay mechanism). It's also referred to as "Subject 4" in the first level.

Humans Are Bastards: The humans are holding the gorilla and its baby captive along with other animals. Some of the guards have bombs strapped to them just to prevent you from getting close, implying that your human captors have no regard for human lives either.

comment
Minimalism: The game's art style, which makes the violence and gore caused by the ape to look beautiful, instead of terrifying if the game looked realistic. It also turns the human beings you tear apart into literal Faceless Goons, so you won't feel bad about mercilessly slaughtering them.

 Ape Out (Video Game) / int_58977071
comment
Creepy Jazz Music: 99% of the soundtrack consists of a frenetic drum solo, amplifying the chaotic atmosphere of the game. However, the final song, once the ape has escaped the zoo, is Pharoah Sanders' "You've Got to Have Freedom," a free jazz piece that somehow encapsulates both joy and unrest, but is not creepy by most standards.

Grievous Harm with a Body: Once you grab a guard, you can use him as a projectile. You can also toss body parts at guards, which won't kill them but will stun them for a moment.

Made of Plasticine: It makes sense that the ape's strength would cause immense gore, but even a single bullet will turn most humans into a fine red mist with maybe a limb or two intact.

Technical Pacifist: If a guard you’re holding as a human shield shoots a fellow guard, it doesn’t count against you for the “Pacifist” achievement. Same applies to enemies who die by bomb explosion—even if you have thrown the bomb at them.

Blackout Basement
 Ape Out (Video Game) / int_c75c63a3
comment
Blackout Basement: In "Subject 4" you rip off an energy generator from the wall, causing a blackout that extends all the way to the next level. One of the levels in "Fugue" has a blackout caused by a bombing, while one of the ship levels in "Adrift" has lights intermittently going off and on. Unlike most examples of this trope, the darkness is solely to your advantage—you can see perfectly well in the dark, but your enemies only see you if you get in the beam of their flashlights.
