Assassin Blue is a freeware story-heavy platformer created by Wishes Unlimited founder Greg Lobanov ("Banov") in 2009. Besides pure platforming, it has an added focus on swordfighting, which allows you to block and break enemy guard in addition to attacking, as well to eventually unlock combo attacks.The story takes you to a war-torn world, where the titular assassin, who is only known by his codename, lost his family as collateral damage was 14. He now serves a shadowy leader he only knows as boss, who uses him to eliminate the leaders of all opposition. Blue justifies the dozens of deaths on his hands by believing that each one brings the war closer to an end, and therefore saves more lives in the long run. However, he can't lie to himself forever, and his orders keep nagging at the back of his mind more and more as the story goes on. | |

Dragon-in-Chief: An unusual example, where Red is entirely loyal to his boss, to the point of fighting Blue for killing him but since this is a game about assassination and not the politicians who employ them, all we ever see of Blue and Red's boss' talents is his ability to send them to kill whichever targets are in his way. | |

Punch-Clock Villain: Gunther, the bodyguard used by the Senator in the second mission, says nothing important or interesting during his battle, and mostly just grunts. It was clearly all just a job for him. Given that we know so little about him, or the one he protected, the "villain" part may not be true, especially next to Blue himself. | |

Face Death with Dignity | |
| Assassin Blue (Video Game) / int_396e1c2a | comment |
Face Death with Dignity: Your boss ultimately does this. After realizing he can't outrun Blue, he simply kneels on the floor and lets Blue cut him down, which takes a while because he still has boss-sized health. Perhaps he hoped that Blue would show mercy to an unarmed opponent, but he was either too late, or too early, given that Blue refuses to kill again afterwards. Red also does this once you finally defeat him, even asking Blue why he hasn't killed him yet. However, Blue refuses to kill him, and settles on cutting his arm off after Red still attempts to backstab him. | |

Shield-Bearing Mook | |
| Assassin Blue (Video Game) / int_406315e | comment |
Shield-Bearing Mook: Some of the forest denizens that protect the Senator in level 2 fight with shields and daggers. Like the two-handed sword wielders in the previous level, their shield will block all attacks unless their guard is broken with C. Ironically, that makes them the easiest enemies to kill, since the guard-break is just as fast as the normal attack and it stuns them, while the follow-up kills them instantly. In contrast, normal enemies take multiple strikes to kill unless you pull off the One-Hit Kill above, and they will not be stunned by the first hit either. | |

Utopia Justifies the Means | |
| Assassin Blue (Video Game) / int_45fe3a2e | comment |
Utopia Justifies the Means: Your boss may have genuinely believed that he is doing good by expanding the country's territory as far as possible, and that regular assassinations are the cleanest way of doing so. However, his idea of testing Blue's loyalty by tricking him into killing innocent people finally pushed him too far, as Blue genuinely believed until then that his boss wants to end the violence, not instigate it until he has killed everyone opposing him. | |

Artifact Mook: While most of the Boss Castle level is dominated by the elite samurai guards, you'll eventually stumble across both the forest denizen enemies from the previous levels, and even former President Riley's guards from the very start. It's implied that they joined your boss' side after he took over their territory, following your assassination of their leaders. | |

What Measure Is a Mook? | |
| Assassin Blue (Video Game) / int_52b36340 | comment |
What Measure Is a Mook?: Blue is against hurting civilians, let alone children and turns against the Boss after he deliberately tricks him into targeting a normal civilian to test his loyalty, but appears to have written off any guards in his way as collateral damage long ago. Red calls him out on this during their battle, claiming that a murder is a murder, and all lives are equally worthless. If you want, you can try roleplaying him as a "clean" assassin and attempt to jump past every non-boss enemy in the game. Even if you get hurt a couple of times by them, the health refills are frequent on all but the final level, and will completely restore your health. However, you'll still have to do at least one non-boss kill when the key to Boss' castle is obtained by killing the Samurai guard outside it.. It's practically impossible to get through the moments where you are climbing on the walls or ceilings and there's an enemy waiting for you there without kicking them off, which is always lethal, even if the height wasn't actually great and you would have made the same fall safely. | |

Nietzsche Wannabe: Red outright says that he sees no difference between killing a fighting combatant and an unarmed child because to him, all lives are equally worthless and he can only feel the satisfaction of a job well done. Blue inverts this after their battle, saying that Red made him realize all lives are worth saving, even if they are of those as far gone as Red. | |

One-Hit Kill | |
| Assassin Blue (Video Game) / int_a414c3f0 | comment |
Ironically, that makes them the easiest enemies to kill, since the guard-break is just as fast as the normal attack and it stuns them, while the follow-up kills them instantly. In contrast, normal enemies take multiple strikes to kill unless you pull off the One-Hit Kill above, and they will not be stunned by the first hit either. | |

Mood Whiplash | |
| Assassin Blue (Video Game) / int_a4c37cbe | comment |
Mood Whiplash: The forest level ends with a silly moment where you powerslide down the mountain slope, knocking off about a dozen forest guards who were trying to climb up. Then, it transitions to a battle with the Senator's bodyguard, who is practically a personification of Punch-Clock Villain (if he's a villain at all). Then, it outright leads to Red killing not just the hapless Senator, but also his wife and child to leave no witnesses, with Blue powerless to stop this. | |

Evolving Attack | |
| Assassin Blue (Video Game) / int_abc66b07 | comment |
Evolving Attack: Shockwave Stomp of President Riley, various Eye Beams of the Tomb Guardian, and the sword charge of Red all add extra phases halfway through the battle. | |

Sad Battle Music | |
| Assassin Blue (Video Game) / int_bafac7bc | comment |
Sad Battle Music: The penultimate "battle" against your boss, who doesn't actually fight at all, simply reuses the main menu theme, which sounds like this. The final boss battle track is also anything but cheerful. | |

| Assassin Blue (Video Game) / int_d028ca10 | comment |
Deliberately Monochrome: The "battle" with your boss is this: the room it is in is completely dark, and both of you are reduced to silhouettes. The only exception is the pure white light coming through the enormous window running along the wall. | |

Authority Equals Asskicking | |
| Assassin Blue (Video Game) / int_e34ada78 | comment |
Authority Equals Asskicking: The first boss is the president of an unnamed country and is much tougher than the guards you fight on the way to him. He does say that he has been training for this battle ever since he assumed command (which was five weeks ago), because he knew an assassination attempt was inevitable after the same fate befell both of his predecessors. Averted with an unnamed senator, who runs and gets killed offscreen by Red, with you only stumbling across his body, and Blue and Red's boss, who simply kneels down when you finally corner him, knowing that he can't outfight you. | |

Turns Red: After you get a boss' health down to about half, a cutscene plays and they start to use an additional attack. Fittingly, Red does this multiple times. | |

| Assassin Blue (Video Game) / int_ef255df8 | comment |
High Turnover Rate: Once you get to President Riley, he reveals that his predecessor was assassinated five weeks ago, and his predecessor was assassinated two months after assuming position. He thus began training up to face you as soon as he got the job. Unfortunately for him, he wasn't quite good enough, and he failed to get good guards as well. | |
