A.K.A The Roach Game.Bad Mojo was a 1996 FMV game by Pulse Entertainment. In it, you play as a down-on-his-luck entomologist named Roger Samms. He lives in a seedy apartment in San Francisco and gets little to no respect from his landlord, Eddie Battito. As the game opens, Roger has embezzled money from a science loan and is preparing to skip town for Mexico City. However, as he is packing, Roger pulls out the locket he got from his deceased mother. The locket suddenly activates and unleashes bad mojo onto Roger, turning his soul into a cockroach. Now Roger must find out what's going on and how to reverse it, guided by a mysterious woman named Oracle within the locket.The game was known for its very, very creepy visuals as you wander around the bar. Since you're playing as a cockroach, you're virtually helpless against larger enemies and the environment and thus have to find a way around the level that will let you pass safely.

Cymbal-Banging Monkey: One of Roger's old toys that he still has from his childhood, and one of the only things that his mother left for him. It also triggers a nasty memory where a nun from his orphanage called it ugly and laughed when he cried.

comment
Multiple Endings: Four of them, but three are Downer Endings - If neither escape the bar before it explodes, they end up haunting the area once it's re-developed. If Roger escapes but Eddie doesn't, Roger is charged with Eddie's murder and committed to an asylum. If Eddie escapes but Roger doesn't, Eddie ends up a homeless drunk. If both escape, they achieve the Golden Ending.

Chekhov's Gun: The lit cigarette Eddie leaves in the bathroom is the key to getting the good ending; Roger needs to push it off the urinal and onto some paper towels, setting off the smoke alarm and waking Eddie up so he can get out of the bar before it goes up in flames.

Golden Ending: Out of the four endings, only one ends on a happy note with Roger and Eddie escaping the gas explosion in their building, realizing they're related, and running off to Belize. Roger uses the money he stole from the university to buy his dad a beachside cantina and himself a lab for studying rain forest insects. And they lived Happily Ever After.

Cats Are Mean: The cat is actually not shown as mean. Roger treats it well, but when he has become a roach, it will try to eat it at any cost. And if it does, it will be shown as completely innocent. It's just an animal acting on instinct, after all.

Disgusting Public Toilet: One of the locations to explore is the bar's restroom. Eddie painted the walls, but everything else still looks grimy. There's also the Rat King to contend with under the sink. Roger's upstairs bathtub near the end isn't much better, if the papers strewn inside and clothes hung on the curtain are any indication.

It Won't Turn Off: Subverted. The gas flame underneath the bar's water heater is constantly burning, but the cause lies with Eddie neglecting to maintain it, not anything supernatural.

Death by Childbirth
 Bad Mojo (Video Game) / int_d29a6629
comment
Death by Childbirth: Roger's mother died when he was born. Eddie's wife similarly died when his estranged son was born. That's a big hint that Roger and Eddie are related.

Horrible Housing

comment
Horrible Housing: Eddie's bar is a run-down, unsafe nightmare of a place, with fixtures dating back to the mid-20th century, including a wall full of razor blades, and a faulty gas-fired water heater.

Contrived Coincidence
 Bad Mojo (Video Game) / int_dc579c91
comment
Contrived Coincidence: Roger and Eddie being father and son is pretty implausible. Some Lampshade Hanging is given by Eddie trying to wrap his head around it right before the bar explodes. Though the flat out supernatural elements in play lessen it.

comment
Whole-Plot Reference: The name "Roger Samms" and the basic plot is a Shout-Out to The Metamorphosis and its protagonist Gregor Samsa, although at least here there's a chance for a happy ending.

Chemistry Can Do Anything
 Bad Mojo (Video Game) / int_ee3efdfe
comment
Chemistry Can Do Anything: Averted. Roger's main project revolves around creating a nicotine-based pesticide called "Balatapropid" to theoretically kill roaches forever. His limited range of equipment and increasing pressure from the university partly contributed to Roger's embezzlement at the start.

Mysterious Backer: The Blattidae Group, a Swiss chemical company whom anonymously provided Roger's million-dollar science grant in hopes of funding his pesticide project. The university Roger works for is understandably concerned about the shady circumstances behind this.

Haunted House: The bar appears to be haunted by the Oracle, possessing its various pests and animals to guide Roger. This applies to Roger and Eddie as well in one of the bad endings.
