Catherine is a Puzzle Game made by Atlus' Persona creative team, with animated cutscenes by Studio 4°C. It is available for PS3, Xbox 360, Xbox One via backward compatibility, and PC via Steam.Vincent Brooks is an average 32-year old guy in a stable but unremarkable long-term relationship with a woman named Katherine McBride. When Katherine begins to press him on the prospect of marriage, Vincent freaks out at the idea... and then suddenly meets a gorgeous and carefree girl called Catherine who could be his ideal woman.As this is happening, Vincent starts to have strange nightmares in which he is wandering in a world of endless staircases and being pursued by... something. A number of men have been found dead with a look of sheer horror on their faces, and a popular rumor states that if you fall in a nightmare and don't wake up before you hit the ground, you will die in real life. Can Vincent sort out his increasingly catastrophic love life without hurting the people around him, or will he fall victim to his supernatural stalker first?The game is an action puzzle game in which you climb a tower by pushing, pulling and climbing blocks. Several obstacles block and hinder you along the way, including other sheep and eventually boss characters.Catherine also features a multiplayer mode called "Colosseum" where two players go head-to-head in a single action stage, each trying to make the other Ring Out. It's fun enough to have caught on with the Tournament Play crowd. No, seriously!The game was released on February 17, 2011 in Japan, July 26, 2011 in North America, and February 10, 2012 in Europe. As of August 4, it had managed to break Atlus' previous launch records, cementing Catherine's place as their fastest-selling title in the US, with an impressive 200,000 units sold in just one week◊.Has an official Novelization simply named Catherine: The Novel and a Prequel Light Novel under the title Catherine: The Mysterious Tale of Rapunzel, both released only in Japan in 2011. English Fan Translations can be found here and here.An Updated Re-release titled Catherine: Full Body was developed for PlayStation 4 and Play Station Vita and released in Japan on February 14, 2019. The PS4 version was released in the West on September 3, 2019. It was brought to the Nintendo Switch on July 7, 2020. It adds a new character named "Rin" (short for, somewhat unsurprisingly, Qatherine), over 20 new animated Cutscenes, new sidequests, new Fanservice, new endings, over 500 total puzzle stages, a story mode difficulty, new toggleable gameplay mechanics, and a new Player Versus Player online mode. Paid DLCs (pre-installed on the Switch version) add 9 additional voice actress options for Catherine, the Horn-Rimmed Glasses, 8 playable characters for the Babel and Colosseum modesnote Catherine, Katherine, Rin, Jonny, Orlando, Toby, Erica and Boss and Joker from Persona 5 for the same modes, with special commentary from the Phantom Thieves of Hearts.Notable on This Very Wiki for spawning its own Wild Mass Guessing page before it even got a works page. | |

| Catherine (Video Game) / int_1073963d | comment |
Psychosexual Horror: The 2nd boss of the game, the Immoral Beast, is a walking, heart-shaped female butt with Katherine's eyes, a nose, and a massive tongue and gnashing teeth for a "mouth". It shows up the next night after Vincent wakes up with Catherine in his bed and realizes that he just cheated on his own girlfriend, and properly represents his fears and feelings of guilt about it. | |

Crucified Hero Shot: A picture in the confessional shows Vincent on a cross, surrounded by sheep. As the game progresses, this picture shows more and more sheep gathered around the cross, making rather obvious implications about Vincent's role among the sheep. | |

Does This Remind You of Anything? | |
| Catherine (Video Game) / int_14ed6ab7 | comment |
Does This Remind You of Anything?: The game employs a lot of this, but then the Nightmare Sequences give several interesting points. One is the fact that Vincent's horns are eerily similar to a specific being. Two is the matter of how Vincent is running away from the depths of the Nightmare, while something is chasing him. The ram horns could be related to the Satyr, who was a symbol for lust and hedonism, and would chase wood nymphs daily. The entirety of the Nightmares are also a major allusion to the levels of Hell, since as you go up the tower, the sanctuaries get cleaner, holier, and more whole, alluding to the fact that you are climbing your way out of hell. | |

All There in the Manual | |
| Catherine (Video Game) / int_17ce80aa | comment |
An unusual All There in the Manual example: Katherine likes cake. This doesn't seem significant until she actually gives a cake to Vincent as a present. However, that same cake ends up rotting in the room a few days later, and ants end up crawling all over Vincent's dorm. Catherine, who somehow slept with Vincent again, questions why does Vincent have a cake after they clean up the mess. This causes a chain of incidents that lead to Vincent being suspected of cheating. | |

Man Behind the Man: The bartender is really a creature called Dumuzid who was the previous Man of Legends. He was able to climb to the pinnacle 100 years ago in Astaroth's game. The reason men are sent to the Nightmare World is that they refuse to populate the species and he sends out Catherine, a succubus, to test the worth of some of these men. | |

Never Trust a Trailer | |
| Catherine (Video Game) / int_19ebe383 | comment |
Never Trust a Trailer: The early trailers made it look like it was some kind of horror game. While there are certainly more than a few creepy moments, it really isn't a scary game. Additionally, some of the early descriptions of it brought up the sexiness of the game to the point people thought Atlus was going into softcore. You see some skimpy clothing, cleavage, and conveniently placed bed sheets, but really nothing that couldn't be shown on evening television. | |

Order Versus Chaos: A given, being the game is a brainchild of the Shin Megami Tensei development staff, but at the same time downplayed by the fact it's all within the context of marriage and relationships, instead of the usual cosmic forces. Do you stay faithful, cheat, or do you realize you want your own life? | |

Multiple Endings | |
| Catherine (Video Game) / int_1aa08f77 | comment |
Multiple Endings: Nine endings total: eight of them for Golden Theater story mode and one for Babel mode. Bittersweet Ending: The Good endings for each girl, where Vincent is in a happy relationship with them, but nothing is properly set in stone. The Freedom endings, where Vincent decides to not stay with either girl and bets some money on a wrestling match. Depending on the Karma Meter, Vincent will either lose or win the bet. If Vincent wins the bet, there's one more cutscene showing Vincent about to leave for a trip into space. One of the new endings of Full Body involves Katherine being signed with a fashion magazine and gaining a number of wealthy admirers. However, it also seems to indicate that she no longer wishes to be with Vincent but she does thank him for helping her live a more 'free life' and tells him to do the same. Downer Ending: The Bad endings for each girl, where Vincent tries to get together with the girl, but she rejects him. Happy Ending: The True endings for each girl, resulting in getting married to her. Full Body also adds some new endings: Catherine's new ending where she and Vincent go back in time to Vincent's high school gives Vincent a better life together with Catherine for several years before getting married at The Stray Sheep. Catherine and Vincent are then shown to have 4 kids in the post-credits images. Rin's true ending where he starts touring and playing piano throughout space with Vincent as his manager, they are then seen getting married in the post-credits images. The ending of Novelization interestingly enough involves Merging the Branches of the true endings of the original game, with Vincent marrying Catherine in The Stray Sheep Bar before they leave to have a honeymoon in space. | |

Finally, this whole thing is being overseen by Trisha / Astaroth / the goddess Ishtar, who actually created the Nightmare to find someone worthy and willing to replace Dumuzid, who's been constantly cheating on her, as her husband. The framing device and Tower of Babel are her latest attempts at this, with her new target being the player. Not Vincent, the player. | |

Stealth Pun | |
| Catherine (Video Game) / int_1e7c47ab | comment |
Stealth Pun: A minor one, but the boss of the Cathedral is Catherine. The achievement named "A God Is Born" involves someone getting laid by Isthar, the goddess of fertility, of all things. As her children would unlikely be mortal, it's easy to see the pun in the name. The restaurant Vincent and Katherine visit is called the "Chrono Rabbit." The rabbit in a waistcoat from Alice in Wonderland is used as a symbol for time in Japan as well. One revelation in the Chrono Rabbit? "I'm late." Another minor one: In the Katherine Good Ending, something Orlando says as he, Jonny, and Mutton come to Vincent's rescue, "Long time, no see, K." That is, if expounded: "(After the) long time (game), no C(atherine), (you get) K(atherine). Finishing a drink at the Stray Sheep will give you a piece of drink-related trivia—a cocktail fact. While he's preparing for one last nightmare at the Stray Sheep after a week grappling between his feelings for two women culminates in him (possibly temporarily) losing both, Vincent receives a message from his cell phone provider regarding "Attachment Issues". | |

Betty and Veronica Switch: In Full Body, the new endings for Katherine and Catherine. Katherine's new ending has her yearning for a free life, no longer chained down; this leads to her having a number of wealthy admirers and seemingly rejecting Vincent. Katherine also decides to emphasize her looks more with shorter more stylised hair, a makeover and a revealing red dress. Catherine's new ending has her turning away from her life as a succubus by going back in time to give Vincent a better life but to also be by his side supporting him from high school all the way to getting married several years later and having 4 kids. Catherine's new look has her wearing less makeup, letting her now long blonde hair down and wearing a white dress. | |

Aborted Arc: On day 6 in Full Body: Fail to pursue Rin's route, and he disappears from the story, leading the rest of the game to carry on exactly like it originally did without his inclusion, the only indication of his status being that he speaks on the phone with Erica. This leaves the mystery of the giant shadow chasing Rin in the first cutscene completely unsolved. On the other hand, if you DO pursue Rin's route, the original plot revolving around Catherine's true identity is phased out entirely. | |

Ironic Echo: Early in the game, Katherine puts two sugars in Vincent's coffee, saying that's the way he likes it. In the cutscene before The Cathedral, Catherine does the same, right in front of Katherine, too. | |

Karma Meter | |
| Catherine (Video Game) / int_276ad49e | comment |
Karma Meter: This seems to be in play, based on how you answer questions in the Nightmare section and how you respond to text messages in the Stray Sheep section. Which side the meter is on will affect Vincent's thoughts when dealing with Katherine or Catherine. The blue side of the meter is pro-marriage and commitment, while the red side of the meter is pro-freedom and passion. Full Body adds certain questions that will cause the meter to crack and warp if the right answers are chosen (representing a decision that's completely outside the scope of Order or Freedom); if this is done enough times, Rin's Route is opened after the 6th Day and will replace the normal route if taken. | |

Translation Style Choices | |
| Catherine (Video Game) / int_2794d9cd | comment |
Translation Style Choices: In the English version, whenever a critical moment occurs in which Vincent must side with Catherine or Katherine, the dialogue will say the name but the subtitles will use general pronouns or just disappear altogether. This allows the audience to choose either side without the game aligning with either one. | |

Limited Wardrobe: On two points. The first is of the "closet full of the same" variety. Sometimes in Vincent's apartment, you'll see a hanger drying out his underwear. All pink-spotted boxers. The second is of the "never change clothes regardless of the situation" variety. If you get the True Lover ending, you'll see Katherine and Vincent's wedding, with them dressed up, as well several anonymous wedding guests in formal wear. Then you see Vincent's friends in the same clothes they always wear. Even Toby is still in his work jumpsuit. | |

He is extremely freaked out by this revelation. Deconstructed when Vincent slaps Rin's hand away and Rin runs out of the apartment in tears. Vincent is horrified with himself, and realizes his feelings for Rin haven't changed, but Rin refuses to return to the apartment even after Vincent calls to apologize. If the player has failed to unlock Rin's route,this is their last conversation. | |

Shipper on Deck | |
| Catherine (Video Game) / int_31da1e24 | comment |
Erica is very supportive of Rin right from the start, especially considering they'd only just met. She invites her over to participate in the group's discussions, most prominently the subject of same-sex relationships. She's also Vincent and Rin's biggest Shipper on Deck if you decide to go with their relationship. She knew Rin was male the entire time, and as a trans woman, likely understood the kinds of struggles Rin would face being a person whose gender identity doesn't match outside assumption and whose body differs from their presentation if that fact was discovered. This foreshadowing is doubly important if the player is unaware that Erica is trans; she's clearly trying to get Toby to be more receptive of the idea before her reveal. | |

Your Princess Is in Another Castle!: The Cathedral is the top of the tower, and the narrator even refers to it as "the last level". It's not. The Cathedral itself isn't revealed in full until the K/Catherine fight comes to its end. Vincent and the player (most likely) believe they're done with nightmares up until the confrontation. The Cathedral technically would be the end of the nightmares, but Vincent actively chooses to proceed further. | |

Bad Liar: Good lord, Vincent. Especially jarring since his excuses get more and more unrealistic (like telling Catherine that Katherine's super-long, pale blonde hair came from his chest), but the girls don't confront him until later in the story. Although Catherine does lampshade it, and she probably knows more than she lets on, being a demon sent to tempt him and all. | |

Womb Horror | |
| Catherine (Video Game) / int_408ba21c | comment |
Womb Horror: One of Vincent's nightmares is a giant amalgamated horror in the shape of a baby known as "The Child". It's covered in Volcanic Veins as if still developing in the womb, and chases after Vincent, wanting to play with his "daddy". It represents Vincent's fear of losing his freedom as a bachelor and having to settle down when learning that Katherine might be pregnant. He later experiences another nightmare in the form of "The Child With A Chainsaw", where the baby transforms and reveals grotesque rusted robot parts, including a sharp pincing claw for a left hand and a chainsaw for a right. It represents Vincent's fear that the child might not even be his, which means that Katherine is cheating on him just as much as he might be cheating on her. | |

Bittersweet Ending | |

Bittersweet Ending: The Good endings for each girl, where Vincent is in a happy relationship with them, but nothing is properly set in stone. The Freedom endings, where Vincent decides to not stay with either girl and bets some money on a wrestling match. Depending on the Karma Meter, Vincent will either lose or win the bet. If Vincent wins the bet, there's one more cutscene showing Vincent about to leave for a trip into space. One of the new endings of Full Body involves Katherine being signed with a fashion magazine and gaining a number of wealthy admirers. However, it also seems to indicate that she no longer wishes to be with Vincent but she does thank him for helping her live a more 'free life' and tells him to do the same. | |

It's a Wonderful Failure: If you run out of lives, or opt to just quit the game after Vincent dies in a nightmare, you'll be treated to a cutscene depicting his corpse in bed, with his expression frozen in horror. | |

Booze-Based Buff: The more hammered Vincent is by the time he leaves the bar, the faster he runs during the Nightmare levels. As a nice cosmetic bonus, finishing your drink gives you trivia about that type of alcohol; cocktails, beer, sake, or whiskey. And best of all, taking a drink uses no time in the bar segments, so you're free to get all four pieces of trivia every time. | |

| Catherine (Video Game) / int_4712b753 | comment |
Stringing the Hopeless Suitor Along: As it turns out, anyone who has been cursed with the nightmares was judged to be doing this by Thomas Mutton. As an example, for Vincent it was his unwillingness to go any further with Katherine despite currently being in a relationship with her for the past 5 years, but at the same time not wanting to break up with her either. | |

Golden Ending | |
| Catherine (Video Game) / int_47e4f5f5 | comment |
Rin's route in Full Body is a fourth option, and also arguably the happiest for everyone involved. Vincent hooks up with Rin (who is actually a crossdressing male alien), and the two are seen living Happily Ever After in space together. Catherine has vanished completely, and Katherine has split up with Vincent on amicable terms. | |

Adaptational Alternate Ending | |
| Catherine (Video Game) / int_4a5fcde | comment |
Adaptational Alternate Ending: The Novelization provides an interesting if slightly confusing version when taking everything into account: The novel's ending takes elements from all three true endings of the original game: Vincent gets married to Catherine like he does in the True Catherine ending, the setting of the wedding takes place at the stray sheep among Vincent's friends like the True Katherine ending then Vincent gets money from Boss so he and Catherine can have a honeymoon in space similar to how he borrowed money from Boss then used it go to space in the True Freedom ending. Interestingly enough in Full Body there's an ending which while not entirely identical, contains several key elements similar to the ending of the novel (including aspects that were previously exclusive to the novel's ending such as Catherine becoming visible to everyone) with Vincent and Catherine getting married in the stray sheep among Vincent's friends making it a Ret-Canon Ending of sorts. | |

Trans Relationship Troubles: In one of the Katherine/Catherine/Rin relationship arcs in Full Body, Toby broke up with Erica because he couldn't handle the fact that she was not only transgender but also "Eric back in high school". He reminds her he likes girls, disregarding Erica's identity entirely. However, when Vincent romantically pursues Rin, it's revealed that Toby and Erica are still dating despite her transgender revelation. | |

Nobody Poops: Averted. Several scenes happen in the lavatory at Vincent's office, his friends sometimes get up to go to the restroom at the Stray Sheep (prompting the rest of them to talk about him while he's gone), and Catherine announces she's going to the bathroom at one point though she may just have been using that as an excuse, being a succubus. That said, from a gameplay perspective, you can enter the restroom at the Stray Sheep, but all you can do in there is wash your face and look at Catherine's naughty pictures in the stall. | |

Arguing that he could not be gay for another guy. However, after some realization of what he has done and his feelings for Rin haven't changed, he outs himself to his friends as bisexual and goes to be happy forever with Rin. | |

Easier Than Easy: The American version has the aptly named "Super Easy"; curiously, it is somewhat hidden and requires a simple code to use. In Full Body, the Safety difficulty fulfils this role. Not only are the puzzle layouts identical to "Easy", but there's no time limit, infinite retries, and you can even have the game play the level for you. | |

Nightmare Sequence: The gameplay. Vincent, along with many other young men, have began having nightmares where they must climb a tower by pushing blocks, or else fall and die, and Your Mind Makes It Real. At the end of each 'stage', they are pursued by a manifestation of their fears and flaws. The nightmares were Dumuzid's attempt to weed out couples who won't get married and have kids, and Ishtar's attempt to find a better boyfriend for herself. Cheating, sleeping around, and being reluctant to find a girlfriend or tie the knot will get you pulled into the nightmares. | |

Spanner in the Works | |
| Catherine (Video Game) / int_60194b82 | comment |
Spanner in the Works: Rin is sweet, earnest, supportive, naive, and completely harmless. She's suffering from amnesia and has little idea of how the world works; she just wants to play the piano and make people happy. Even the Big Bad thinks Rin isn't a threat to his plan, despite knowing their origin. He even hires them to play at The Stray Sheep! She's open-minded and has some unusual - but profound - ideals: No one can tell someone else how to live their life, and that individuals are the only ones should decide what is important to them. If you choose to romance Rin, this philosophy turns out to be exactly what Vincent needs to hear to take a step back from the whole Katherine/Catherine debacle and reassess his life. Not only does Vincent become a far stronger, more competent person, he realizes Rin makes him happy and that gender doesn't matter to him. This completely derails Catherine's plan; she isn't even aware of Rin as a romantic rival until it's too late, and just gives up when she realizes Vincent may not even be interested in being seduced by a woman. Also, the Big Bad made a huge mistake by hiring Rin as The Stray Sheep's pianist; their angelic power creates Magic Music that slows down the Nightmare and allows its listeners to think of new opportunities and possibilities. Better emotional stability and less stress makes the Nightmare far easier to handle. By the end of the final challenge, Vincent and Rin's relationship is so strong, they easily counter Mutton's homophobic rant with a heartfelt Kirk Summation. And that's before Rin's Big Brother zaps him into submission in Rin's True Ending. Vincent could've survived the ordeal on his own, but Rin was the one who made that victory inevitable. | |

Catherine versus Katherine. In the True Lovers ending, there's a blink and you'll miss it error where the chalkboard reads: "Welcome to our wedding party: Vincent and Catherine." Of course, considering it is likely Boss who wrote it, this might have been a deliberate error. Funnily enough in Full Body, while the mistake has been corrected for Katherine's ending, they re-use the same message on the chalkboard from the original game for Catherine's new ending at the stray sheep. | |

The Reveal: Double Subverted.

However, despite Mutton's attempts to pretend their conversation didn't happen, Vincent quickly catches on, forcing Mutton to continue explaining what's been going on. | |

Grey-and-Gray Morality: As mentioned by Trisha, the choice between Katherine and Catherine does not represent good and evil, as the two both have their merits and flaws. Catherine is physically abusive and pushy, while Katherine is controlling and overbearing, but they both genuinely love Vincent and want what's best for him. It depends on the player and their own sense of morality to choose what's best: Katherine, Catherine, or neither. | |

Creator's Culture Carryover | |
| Catherine (Video Game) / int_74a7d2d | comment |
Creator's Culture Carryover: Vincent's apartment is absolutely teeny. While Japanese apartments are that small, American ones typically are much more spacious. Furthermore, he has posters with kanji written on them. Not to mention the ring-shaped bulbs in his ceiling light, which are more identifiable with Japan. A sushi restaurant with a conveyer belt, which while common in Japan are very rare Stateside. Not implausible if they live in a major city on the West coast. At one point, during an optional text conversation with Catherine if you tell her not to bother you, she will eventually reply with "You're so boring!", followed by a rather Japanese emoticon◊. This isn't to say that Japanese-style emoticons aren't uncommon in the US; stuff like "^_^" and ">_<" get used fairly regularly. You will rarely, if ever, find someone using the one in the picture, though. In one of the cutscenes, it is very noticeable that Vincent and Katherine leave their shoes at the door entrance; this is a Japanese custom that doesn't see much use in America. Characters specifically go on about women's wrestling, and the WrasslInsanity PPV seems to be a women's-only show. In Japanese pro wrestling, men and women generally perform in seperate promotions, but in the States, unisex leagues are far more common. One of Mutton's motivations for the nightmares is the low birth rate of "this country". While it's well-documented that Japan's birth rate (and population numbers in general) has been in a steep decline for decades, population growth is far less of a problem in the United States. Based on the True Freedom ending it's possible that this is not even on Earth but an entirely different planet meaning the low population rate could very well be a major problem for the "country" or the whole planet. When Vincent is describing Catherine on the phone he describes her as "she's white", like being Caucasian is unusual for the area. | |

Schrödinger's Gun: The differences between the "Bad", "Good", and "True" version of each ending are supposedly determined by how well the girl can sense your feelings (that is, your position on the Karma Meter), but other events happen differently seemingly independently of your feelings about relationships. If you choose Katherine, Jonny, Orlando, and Boss don't show up to corroborate your story in the Bad ending. If you choose Catherine, her father doesn't show up in the Bad ending. And the difference between the Good and True Freedom endings is whether or not Feather wins the wrestling tournament, which Vincent should have no way of influencing. | |

Significant Name Overlap: Vincent's primary love interests are named Catherine and Katherine, who each represents the Order Versus Chaos dynamics of a relationship. In the English version, when Vincent challenges Mutton/Dumuzid to earn K/Catherine back, the localization team edited the subtitles to read "her" when he says the name to keep which one he's fighting to win back ambiguous. The Updated Re Release adds a Third-Option Love Interest also named Qatherine (usually shortened as "Rin"). | |

Where the Hell Is Springfield? | |
| Catherine (Video Game) / int_8504b817 | comment |
Where the Hell Is Springfield?: The majority of the cast is white with Anglo-Saxon names, and the town is a rather American-looking city. However, the actual name of the place is very deliberately avoided, along with other quirks. The police officer Morgan wears a hat with a checkered rim, resembling those worn by police in England rather than the United States. On top of all of that, the True Freedom ending shows Vincent at a spaceship dock overlooking the city, wherein it appears to be a small colony in a desert — and certainly not on Earth at all — as an incredibly sci-fi-looking spaceship flies in the background with no visible sky, raising more questions than it answers. | |

Sympathetic Adulterer: There's a lot of cheaters in this game, and many are portrayed sympathetically. Vincent feels like he's being pushed into something he isn't ready for, and his affair may or may not have been entirely willing. Depending on the player, he might also regret his actions and attempt to push Catherine away. Todd and Archie each have a Freudian Excuse, and if they make it through the nightmares, will resolve their issues and stop cheating. | |

Fail to pursue Rin's route, and he disappears from the story, leading the rest of the game to carry on exactly like it originally did without his inclusion, the only indication of his status being that he speaks on the phone with Erica. This leaves the mystery of the giant shadow chasing Rin in the first cutscene completely unsolved. | |

Bait-and-Switch: An unintentional example in the English version—many players noticed that Toby and the Mysterious Voice very clearly share the same voice actor, and predicted Toby would end up being the foreshadowed mastermind. However, this really was just a casting choice—there is no connection between the characters. | |

Spell My Name With An S: Catherine versus Katherine. In the True Lovers ending, there's a blink and you'll miss it error where the chalkboard reads: "Welcome to our wedding party: Vincent and Catherine." Of course, considering it is likely Boss who wrote it, this might have been a deliberate error. Funnily enough in Full Body, while the mistake has been corrected for Katherine's ending, they re-use the same message on the chalkboard from the original game for Catherine's new ending at the stray sheep. Played straight with "Dumuzi" compared to "Dumuzid". May be due to pronunciation issues. | |

Did Not Get the Girl: A possible outcome of the story has Vincent simply walk away from Catherine and Katherine altogether. Rather than a Downer Ending, it's a personal liberation for him. He asks Boss for a loan to start a new life and places it on a women's wrestling match — if he wins, he uses the winnings to buy a ticket on a space colony ship; if he loses, he has a good laugh at the Boss' expense after all the shit he put him through and laughs and drinks the rest of the night away with his friends. | |

Meaningless Lives | |
| Catherine (Video Game) / int_8b6a1576 | comment |
Meaningless Lives: It is common to find extra life items close to a check point. In easy and normal mode, each item give you 3 and 2 lives respectively, and they reappear each time. As a result, you are likely to end up with more lives than you started with no matter how many times you die. In hard mode, you get only one extra life per item, making lives meaningful again, as if it wasn't difficult enough. | |

Laser-Guided Karma: Exaggerated.

Vincent especially goes through a Trauma Conga Line of events due to his bad decision-making. This causes him to lose loved ones like Rin and Katherine. | |

Take a Third Option | |
| Catherine (Video Game) / int_950bbfa7 | comment |
Take a Third Option: The neutral ending is this for the alignments. Vincent rejects meeting up with Katherine or Catherine and decides to put off marriage until he feels ready for it. Keeping a so-called "Chaotic" lifestyle but with the "Law" mentality about it. Rin's route in Full Body is a fourth option, and also arguably the happiest for everyone involved. Vincent hooks up with Rin (who is actually a crossdressing male alien), and the two are seen living Happily Ever After in space together. Catherine has vanished completely, and Katherine has split up with Vincent on amicable terms. | |

Absurdly Short Level | |

Absurdly Short Level: The final puzzle section of the Spiral Corridor is a ten-storey wall. You start halfway up (and the bell's even in earshot from the get-go), so you basically have to ascend five blocks to reach the exit. Easier said than done, though, as the level lacks solid footing for block movement. | |

The Big Bad, Boss/Thomas Mutton/Dumuzid, is trying to weed out men who won't do their duty for the continuation of the species. To that end, he sets up as a bartender and convinces a succubus he knows to find men who are single or on the verge of infidelity, who he then traps in the Nightmare till they either recommit to their relationship or die and leave only men who will commit to the continuation of the species. As for why this doesn't quite make sense? Well, he's also cheating on his wife, Ishtar, who's not happy about it. More on that later. | |

Luck-Based Mission | |
| Catherine (Video Game) / int_98b1dc8f | comment |
Luck-Based Mission: Later levels have Mystery Blocks, which will transform into any other block type when stepped on. You could get a normal block, a meaningless change like a Monster Block (since you're always standing on them when they manifest, they die immediately), something annoying like an Ice Block, dangerous like a Spike Block, or you could get the worst luck ever and get a Black Hole Block. One of the attacks of the Final Boss tags you with a curse that causes all non-normal blocks to transform into a different special block each time you pull a block. It can throw a wrench into your plans if, for instance, something transforms into a cracked block, but at the same time it could provide you with a spring block and let you skip parts of the level. | |

Interface Spoiler | |
| Catherine (Video Game) / int_9cb3e22e | comment |
Interface Spoiler: A minor example. At one point, Vincent receives a furious phone call from a man who claims to be Catherine's boyfriend. There's a brief plot where Vincent tries to work out which one of his two lovers is having the affair, as Steve only ever says the name aloud and doesn't spell it (and both girls claim not to know anyone named Steve). However, the subtitles clearly show that Steve is referring to Catherine. Full Body eases this up some. The first time the caller says it subtitles will use the "Q" name because that's who Vincent thinks he's talking about, only for him to confirm he doesn't know who Rin is. Then it shifts to the spelling that Vincent thinks he's talking about. He's correct about who Steve is talking about the second time, although in reality Catherine doesn't take the relationship as serious as Steve does. | |

Foreshadowing | |
| Catherine (Video Game) / int_9d12bbc1 | comment |
Foreshadowing: Fairly early in the game, Catherine says that she has to go to the dentist. One of the first sheep Vincent meets in the nightmare world is called Steve, who has also fallen victim to Catherine. His profession is a dentist. Talking to Justin in the bar during Day 2 has him mention during his research about the nightmare cycles that there was a man who survived the cycles that was granted a wish. He muses if one survivor wished for eternal youth, he may still be around. A not so distant example happens later: While Catherine is beating up Vincent, you hear loud punches and slams, along with Vincent's screams of agony. Then, when the scene shifts to Orlando and Toby, all you hear is Vincent. The next day, you find out that only Vincent can see her. No one ever interacts with Catherine in the bar, other than Vincent ( and one casual remark she made to Boss). We later find out that she's Invisible to Normals, hence why she was never bothered despite being a flirty Ms. Fanservice. If you talk enough to one of the bar patrons, Todd, in the nightmares he'll mention how his girlfriend randomly stabbed her food with a fork the night before Katherine does the exact same thing when talking to Vincent. He also mentions how he broke up with a woman because she was lying about being pregnant. Also, just about all of Erica's friends know about her being transgender and obliquely reference it throughout the story. In a more subtle example, the loading screen usually has quotes from well-known people in history about romance. One of the people who is quoted is Thomas Mutton, who unlike the rest, isn't a historical figure. Thomas Mutton is the real name of Boss, who is behind all of the nightmares. The bar owner mentions that he's cheated on his wife and is currently on poor terms with her even though he still loves her but for some reason you never see him as a sheep with the rest of the people you meet at the bar. In retrospect it's a big hint that he's the one making you go through the nightmares. In Full Body, a rumor starts up that anyone who listens to Rin's piano music will be granted happiness. In Rin's True Ending, it's revealed that their music has the ability to slow nightmares and open the listeners' minds to new possibilities and opportunities. Erica is very supportive of Rin right from the start, especially considering they'd only just met. She invites her over to participate in the group's discussions, most prominently the subject of same-sex relationships. She's also Vincent and Rin's biggest Shipper on Deck if you decide to go with their relationship. She knew Rin was male the entire time, and as a trans woman, likely understood the kinds of struggles Rin would face being a person whose gender identity doesn't match outside assumption and whose body differs from their presentation if that fact was discovered. This foreshadowing is doubly important if the player is unaware that Erica is trans; she's clearly trying to get Toby to be more receptive of the idea before her reveal. In some of the earlier scenes, Rin has a recurring white feather motif, can see Vincent in his human form in the nightmares, and clearly remembers the nightmares. All three are hints that Rin is actually an angel. Just before starting Stage 4, the Mysterious Voice in the confessional even comments that Rin appears as a human and doesn't have to do any climbing, referring to them as some kind of overseer. The first look inside Rin's apartment should raise a lot of questions. She has a big, fancy piano, a seemingly random assortment of toys, one spare outfit, blankets, a white feather... and nothing else. No bed; Vincent finds her sleeping under the piano. No food; there are boxes blocking access to her fridge and kitchen sink, and there's a disco ball sitting on her stove. No phone; Vincent gives her one and shows her how to use it. While her amnesia plays some factor into this, Rin being an alien posing as a human is the real cause. If you continue to pursue Rin in your journey, a mysterious voice will ask you a question in your dreams about whether or not you should continue a relationship with someone despite them keeping secrets, and based on some of the answers, the mysterious voice will taunt you about Rin having a secret as well. Further foreshadowing that Rin is not only male but also an alien. If you choose to romance Rin, the breakup scene with Catherine is very interesting if you're paying attention. She goes in confident and seductive because she's been fully aware of Vincent's relationship with Katherine the entire time, and thus thinks she knows how to tempt him. But when she realizes there's a ''third'' lover, she's clearly baffled. When she realizes that Vincent has chosen Rin, she immediately drops the act and breaks up with him. It's one thing to compete with another woman, but Rin being an Angelic Alien with Magic Music is something else entirely. Also, Catherine realizes that her strategy of using her succubus powers probably hasn't been so effective due to the likelihood of Vincent having at least some kind of Incompatible Orientation. Even with her considerable skills, it's got to be hard to seduce a guy who's not necessarily seeking a woman in the first place. It's rather telling how quickly she gives up and walks away, then quietly tells Boss that she's leaving it all up to him. If it wasn't clear already, this is a huge hint that Boss isn't what he seems. | |

Bizarre Puzzle Game | |
| Catherine (Video Game) / int_a295c722 | comment |
Bizarre Puzzle Game: The game's about moving blocks around to climb a tall tower comprised of them, while struggling with fears surrounding relationship problems and infidelity. It's a little difficult to class this game into an established genre more specific than "block puzzle game". | |

Soundtrack Dissonance | |
| Catherine (Video Game) / int_abad35b4 | comment |
Soundtrack Dissonance: While for the most part, the epic classical music remixes fit the gameplay, one level has Rossini -William Tell Overture Part 2 "The Storm" And Part 3 "The Ranz Des Vaches" playing, and portions of the song are serene and don't fit the climbing to escape your death gameplay at all. The level with the baby boss features "Pictures at an Exhibition" as a soundtrack, with "the Hut of Baba Yaga" being one of the creepier segments. The menu theme may also count. It starts off sinister, but gets pretty catchy and disco-like, creating quite the dissonance of Vincent being stuck to a pillar, with what looks like barb-wire, and the two title characters just sitting on said pillar. That given, this is made by Atlus. | |

Oh, Crap!: Vincent has this look whenever there's a nightmare death sequence coming up. Or whenever he sees somebody in his bed that wasn't there before. When Boss realizes that Vincent hadn't in fact figured the truth out on his own, and that in giving his Motive Rant he basically just shot his own masquerade to hell, he's reduced to stammering as he desperately tries to backpedal. | |

Final Boss | |
| Catherine (Video Game) / int_ad4a45be | comment |
One of the attacks of the Final Boss tags you with a curse that causes all non-normal blocks to transform into a different special block each time you pull a block. It can throw a wrench into your plans if, for instance, something transforms into a cracked block, but at the same time it could provide you with a spring block and let you skip parts of the level. | |

Loophole Abuse | |
| Catherine (Video Game) / int_b1dde8fd | comment |
Loophole Abuse: If you pick Katherine instead of Catherine, this is how Vincent manages to get Katherine to take him back after the breakup. See, Catherine is technically nothing but an illusion, in this realm at least, so she and Vincent technically never actually had sex... which means that technically, Vincent never actually cheated on Katherine! If it's the bad ending, Katherine doesn't swallow this, but if it's the Good or True ending, Vincent's friends show up to confirm that they never saw Catherine, and Boss/Thomas Mutton confirms that Catherine isn't from this realm and Vincent's screw-ups were the result of an illusion and artificial nightmares. | |

Lost in Translation: The title of the game is "Catherine", but in the Japanese version the name is spelled so it clearly refers to both Catherine and Katherine, making them both the eponymous character. note The Japanese transliterations of the names Katherine and Catherine are both spelled with the katakana symbol ã‚« ka - there is as such no audible or visible distinction in either pronunciation or spelling between the two names when rendered in kana. In the English version, only Catherine's name is directly referred to by the title. | |

Color Motif: Vincent is associated with the color pink, as shown by his pink t-shirt, his pink boxers, and the pink bar he attends. The color is used to reflect his love life as Vincent is stuck between 2 women and can't decide if he's ready to settle down and grow up. The color is also used to reflect his childishness as the story is about Vincent coming of age and accepting that he needs to take responsibility for himself and not make Katherine feel like she has to push him in every step of their relationship. | |

Sadistic Choice: Picture this: You've been going out with your girlfriend for the past five years, and she's been talking about getting married and making things permanent. It hasn't been the most exciting of relationships, but for the most part you're content with it. One day, you hit up the local bar, and the next thing you remember, aside from a nightmare that you barely even remember, is that you've woken up next to a random beautiful woman, and it's implied that the two of you did...things the night before. Still not freaking out? Not only does this woman not know you already have a girlfriend, but she threatens to kill you if she finds out you're seeing someone else. It certainly doesn't help that this Yandere girl does have everything you could ever want in a girlfriend, which now throws you into deciding between your longtime lover and this new girl. And just when you're contemplating how to get yourself out of this mess, you find yourself in several situations where these two women nearly find out about each other. Welcome to the life of Vincent Brooks! | |

Wedding Finale: If you decide to have Vincent stay faithful to Katherine, and have your Karma Meter all the way on the law side, the two will reconcile their relationship. Vincent will eventually propose to her, and the two will wed at the Stray Sheep with the Boss supervising the proceedings. If Vincent chooses Rin in Full Body, Rin and Vincent can also marry in the Stray Sheep, this time officiated by Rin's Big Brother. Given that Rin is both a man and an Angelic Alien, their legal status is an open question. Also happens in Full Body's new ending for Catherine, but with the ending slides also chronicling her life and future family with Vincent. | |

Happily Married: In one of the game's three "True" endings, Vincent and Katherine get married at the Stray Sheep and get a very cute Happy Ending. The "True Lovers" ending, specifically. Her "Good Ending" also implies this, but doesn't explicitly cover the wedding. Vincent and Catherine get one of their own. Along with dozens of other succubi. If their respective issues are worked through by the end of the game, Daniel and Anna elope, Justin states that he's worked up the nerve to propose to the woman he's dating, Todd vows to stop taking his wife for granted, and Archie decides to set this plus a family as his goal. | |

Boss also can see her, thanks to being the person organizing the nightmares and using Catherine to judge who needs to be sent into them, which screws him up when a desperate Vincent is looking for some confirmation that Catherine existed and instead congratulated Vincent about finding out his role in the Nightmares. | |

Double Standard: Abuse, Female on Male | |
| Catherine (Video Game) / int_c0e3994b | comment |
Double Standard: Abuse, Female on Male: There is a scene where Vincent is getting a serious beating from Catherine and his friends just laugh it off and ignore it. Subverted, when it turns out that as far as they knew, Vincent was alone and was just making weird noises. | |

Fake Pregnancy | |

Fake Pregnancy: Katherine claims to be pregnant as a Secret Test of Character for Vincent after she realizes he cheated on her. In a variation, she honestly believed she was pregnant at least initially, but still only told him the truth later. | |

Show Within a Show: The whole game, actually. The Golden Playhouse mode actually opens with Midnight Venus introducing the game as if it were an episode akin to something from Tales from the Crypt, while Babel mode is framed as a televised game show. Many cutscenes have a watermark in the corner of the screen as if we were watching a TV channel. | |

Double Standard Rape: Female on Male | |
| Catherine (Video Game) / int_c289826f | comment |
Double Standard Rape: Female on Male: Catherine and Vincent's "relationship" basically begins with Date Rape. Okay, so you could argue that Vincent's first drunken hookup with Catherine was consensual, since they might have both been smashed at the time. Except for the little fact that he can't remember it in the morning while Catherine does. Nor can he remember any of their other sexual encounters either. And by the end, we realize it definitely wasn't spontaneous on Catherine's part. This is subverted in the case of Archie, which is displayed to be unsettling. Also, the double standard is mitigated somewhat by The Reveal near the end of the game that Catherine is an illusionary succubus, sent to tempt Vincent as part of a scheme by Boss/Thomas Mutton/Dumuzid, so from a certain point of view, Vincent's sexual encounters with Catherine were not real. | |

Yank the Dog's Chain: Vincent saves Katherine from falling to her death in the nightmare towards the end of the game, and it's a fairly romantic moment. He wakes up to Katherine standing in his apartment, under the impression that everything's fixed between them. Turns out the whole thing was All Just a Dream, and Katherine was never actually in the nightmare at all. She then explains that she knew about his affair the entire time and breaks up with him. | |

Psychic Dreams for Everyone | |
| Catherine (Video Game) / int_c70059b4 | comment |
Psychic Dreams for Everyone: Well, any guy who's around age 30 and is a patron of the Stray Sheep, and is entangled with a woman with whom he has no intention of having children. Later scenes imply that the Big Bad might eventually spread said dreams to everyone assigned male at birth who wasn't busy fathering a family by a certain age. Given how even Erica starts getting these dreams, that presumably applies to trans women, gay men, asexual men, and anyone else with the equipment for it who didn't, for whatever reason, choose to impregnate a woman and start a family. | |

From a Certain Point of View: From a certain point of view, Vincent never actually cheated on Katherine. Catherine was an illusion and they never really had sex; Catherine simply used her powers to make Vincent think he was cheating. This explanation ultimately pushes Katherine to take Vincent back after the breakup if you pick the Katherine ending, even though Vincent will admit that in his heart, he really was cheating on her. | |

Cleaning Up Romantic Loose Ends | |
| Catherine (Video Game) / int_cbbf302c | comment |
Cleaning Up Romantic Loose Ends: Different versions depending on your route. Should you choose Katherine, Catherine is basically written off as an "Illusion" by Boss. Should you choose Catherine, Vincent admits that he felt his life and his relationship with Katherine was more just him doing what society expects of him. Should you choose the single/freedom route, Jonny's backstory reveals he's been in love with Katherine since high school, and now that Vincent's out of the picture, his only reason to not pursue a relationship with her is gone, although it is implied that she turned him down. In Full Body, if you get the True Rin ending, Jonny finds his soulmate, an alien during a Rin piano concert in space and they are shown to get married at the same time as Vincent and Rin. In another new ending, when Catherine goes back in time with Vincent so they can be together since high school, several years later, at Catherine and Vincent's wedding, Katherine is shown together with Paul in the new timeline, who was previously shown to be dead and is briefly mentioned at the start of the story. | |

Escort Mission | |
| Catherine (Video Game) / int_cfda0ecb | comment |
Escort Mission: Stage 8 (The Cathedral) requires you to bring along Katherine (or Rin if on Rin's Route in Full Body). It's an extremely simple level aside from her presence; she is, however, slower than Vincent, and her AI can easily get her into untenable positions, as she will not move blocks and not be able to perform techniques. Although, her sporadic movement makes perfect sense: she's in a situation she clearly has no knowledge of. There's also the fact that Catherine impaled herself with a knife while she was on top of Katherine, and that was not a pretty sight to see... and is now trying to eat them. | |

Anti-Frustration Features: The vanilla version of the game is practically known by the already masochistic community of ATLUS for its punishing difficulty. Thankfully, Full Body offers them Safety Mode, which erases the time limit to clear a level, removes all traps completely, and if you die, you won't automatically suffer a game over if you have no more lives to spare. For the extra relief, they've also added a support system that lets you fast forward to do puzzles automatically, or undo a mistake. | |

Have a Nice Death: Falling from the tower presents you with a nice image of Vincent's corpse atop a stack of fallen blocks while a voice tells you to rest in peace. LOVE IS OVER indeed. Dying on the tower is kinder as at least Vincent goes up in a fine red mist. Plus, when you run out of continues, you're treated to the lovely image of Vincent dead in the real world. Completely pale and with a look of absolute horror frozen on his face. And since this is an Atlus game, you'll be seeing it a lot. | |

Screw This, I'm Outta Here: The Freedom Endings, especially the True version. Vincent, after having his chance to choose, chooses neither Catherine nor Katherine, deciding that the relationship scare means he's clearly not ready to settle down with any major choice. As his reward, he asks Mutton/Boss for a loan to place on a bet for a Wrestling match. Depending how close your Karma Meter is to True Neutral, Vincent either loses it all on a risky bet and drinks the rest of the night away with his friends (Normal) or wins the bet and makes enough money to move out of his apartment and join the fledgling Space Colonies. | |

Spin-Off | |
| Catherine (Video Game) / int_d9ee7048 | comment |
Spin-Off: Of the Shin Megami Tensei franchise. The game's The 'Verse is based around a recurring character from the main SMT games, the combined female goddess and male demon Ishtar/Astaroth, who serves as the "Midnight Venus" Trisha / Ishtar in the Framing Device and the young boy, Astaroth, that you can talk to in the confessional booths during your trip through the nightmare. The game also imports multiple general concepts from the main series, including the Urban Fantasy Order Versus Chaos (versus Netural) Central Themes, Karma Meter and Multiple Endings, though here it's in the context of relationships instead of the main series' Apocalypses. Other characters from SMT also serve minor roles in the story, such as the demon Nergal. | |

Red Herring | |
| Catherine (Video Game) / int_dbca2c99 | comment |
Red Herring: There's a fair amount of "clues" that point toward either Katherine or Erica being the "witch" that's cursing the male characters. It turns out that Erica is the "witch" from the rumors, but not as you'd imagine: she has nothing to do with the supernatural events, and her identity as the "witch" is a result of misinformation and second-hand gossip from her schooldays with Vincent and friends. The ants. The camera notes their presence during critical scenes, and Erica shares a rumour that ants are the servants of the "witch" that's cursing everyone. Vincent and Catherine wake up one morning to find the apartment infested with them, and you even have to fight against giant ants in one of the stages. Turns out, the ants have nothing to do with anything. | |

Gambit Pileup | |
| Catherine (Video Game) / int_de9047ac | comment |
Gambit Pileup: A small-scale one. The Big Bad, Boss/Thomas Mutton/Dumuzid, is trying to weed out men who won't do their duty for the continuation of the species. To that end, he sets up as a bartender and convinces a succubus he knows to find men who are single or on the verge of infidelity, who he then traps in the Nightmare till they either recommit to their relationship or die and leave only men who will commit to the continuation of the species. As for why this doesn't quite make sense? Well, he's also cheating on his wife, Ishtar, who's not happy about it. More on that later. Catherine, the above-mentioned succubus, goes to Vincent and seduces him, but also falls in Yandere love with him, leading her to attempt to Murder the Hypotenuse. The attempted murder is soon revealed to be a dream of Vincent's although there are unanswered questions as to her involvement in the prank messages and calls Katherine apparently received. Katherine, Vincent's girlfriend, knows about the affair the whole time, and first tries to take advantage of her pregnancy (which she later found out was a false alarm) to tie Vincent back to her and plans to seize control of his finances because she's implied to consider him too irresponsible (as Vincent doesn't stop wasting his money on cigarettes, booze and newer models of electronic devices, even when he's barely got any money left in his bank account). Later, she decides to cut her losses and break up with him (which is when she also reveals to him that she was never really pregnant). In Full Body, Rin is from a race of Angelic Aliens who oversee and guide mankind. They're sent to investigate and put an end to the Nightmare, but undergoes amnesia to better blend in and socialize with humans. The amnesia causes more problems than it solves, as Rin is left rather naive and defenseless. It's not until they help Vincent and the other sheep through the Nightmare that they regain their memories. Rin falling in love with him was never part of the mission, but they end up far stronger for it. Despite being aware of their origin and the threat to his plan, the Big Bad hires them to work at The Stray Sheep, and Catherine completely overlooks Rin until she realizes she's lost Vincent to them. Vincent is, of course, unaware of all this intrigue. He's just someone whose relationship with his girlfriend is about to cross the point of no return, and who's terrified of it. Because of this, he runs headlong into Catherine's arms, which kicks off the plot. By surviving the nightmares, he's able to derail Boss' plan and decide for himself what he wants out of life. Finally, this whole thing is being overseen by Trisha / Astaroth / the goddess Ishtar, who actually created the Nightmare to find someone worthy and willing to replace Dumuzid, who's been constantly cheating on her, as her husband. The framing device and Tower of Babel are her latest attempts at this, with her new target being the player. Not Vincent, the player. | |

Didn't See That Coming | |
| Catherine (Video Game) / int_dfa40c1b | comment |
If you choose to romance Rin, the breakup scene with Catherine is very interesting if you're paying attention. She goes in confident and seductive because she's been fully aware of Vincent's relationship with Katherine the entire time, and thus thinks she knows how to tempt him. But when she realizes there's a ''third'' lover, she's clearly baffled. When she realizes that Vincent has chosen Rin, she immediately drops the act and breaks up with him. It's one thing to compete with another woman, but Rin being an Angelic Alien with Magic Music is something else entirely. Also, Catherine realizes that her strategy of using her succubus powers probably hasn't been so effective due to the likelihood of Vincent having at least some kind of Incompatible Orientation. Even with her considerable skills, it's got to be hard to seduce a guy who's not necessarily seeking a woman in the first place. It's rather telling how quickly she gives up and walks away, then quietly tells Boss that she's leaving it all up to him. If it wasn't clear already, this is a huge hint that Boss isn't what he seems. | |

Animal Motifs | |
| Catherine (Video Game) / int_e2ccee25 | comment |
Animal Motifs: Vincent and rams. He sprouts ram horns in the dreamworld and his dreams are filled with bipedal (and necktied) ones who are really other men stuck in the dreamworld. The game never lets up on the sheep motif, either; they mention their connection to dreams in symbolism ("counting sheep!"), the sheep in the nightmares are condescendingly called "lost lambs"note which is also a reference to a sermon by Jesus by the voice in the confessional, the final boss is a giant head with a beard made of sheep, and so on. To a lesser extent than the sheep, ants are symbolically used as well. | |

Fake Difficulty: Suddenly obtains it in Stage 9, the Empireo in the form of Luck Based Stages. Mystery blocks are added that can turn into any of the other block types when you step on it and it's completely randomized, so it can ruin your entire progress. Have fun stepping on one, your heart hammering in hopes of it turning into any block type than the Black Hole or Spike ones! Though undoing your move and stepping on the block again until it's something you like is still entirely possible. | |

Financial Abuse | |
| Catherine (Video Game) / int_e94ff7e2 | comment |
Katherine, Vincent's girlfriend, knows about the affair the whole time, and first tries to take advantage of her pregnancy (which she later found out was a false alarm) to tie Vincent back to her and plans to seize control of his finances because she's implied to consider him too irresponsible (as Vincent doesn't stop wasting his money on cigarettes, booze and newer models of electronic devices, even when he's barely got any money left in his bank account). Later, she decides to cut her losses and break up with him (which is when she also reveals to him that she was never really pregnant). | |

Angelic Aliens | |
| Catherine (Video Game) / int_ee29182 | comment |
In Full Body, Rin is from a race of Angelic Aliens who oversee and guide mankind. They're sent to investigate and put an end to the Nightmare, but undergoes amnesia to better blend in and socialize with humans. The amnesia causes more problems than it solves, as Rin is left rather naive and defenseless. It's not until they help Vincent and the other sheep through the Nightmare that they regain their memories. Rin falling in love with him was never part of the mission, but they end up far stronger for it. Despite being aware of their origin and the threat to his plan, the Big Bad hires them to work at The Stray Sheep, and Catherine completely overlooks Rin until she realizes she's lost Vincent to them. | |

Downloadable Content: Full Body has DLC packs that add various cosmetics. First-print copies come with a pack that allows you to play as Joker from Persona 5 in Babel and Colosseum. When playing as Joker, the Phantom Thieves of Hearts will serve as Mission Control and commentate over the action, and music from Persona 5 is set over the game. The "Ideal Voice" pack in the Japanese version includes 9 additional voices for Catherine on top of the on-disc tracks by Miyuki Sawashiro and Mamiko Noto, allowing you to change Catherine's voice into any of 11 variations. Every single voice track is fully voiced, including cutscenes. The "Nero Glasses" set allows Vincent to wear a bizarre pair of glasses, which causes every other character to be shown in their undergarments (with a handful of exceptions). | |

Devil in Plain Sight: Catherine keeps passive-aggressively inserting herself into Vincent's life. He keeps waking up with her in his bed, even if he told her "no." He has no memory of the nights they supposedly spend together. This could either scream "Catherine is a soul-stealing succubus" or "Catherine is a stalker who keeps drugging Vincent into submission," but either way, she's clearly bad news. And as it turns out, the first one is technically the right answer. | |

Mental Monster: The bosses represent various fears that Vincent experiences in his nightmares throughout the game. The story focuses on Vincent's relationship with his girlfriend Katherine, but things get muddled when he meets (and wakes up next to) Catherine. As he and other random men in the city struggle to keep climbing each night just to stay alive, Vincent is confronted by horrific amalgamations that represent his various fears such as committing to his relationship, losing his freedom by getting married, the unwanted possibility of being a father, the possibility that the child might not even be his, being confronted for cheating, and even his own insecurities with his obsessions with being a free man not being weighed down by a relationship. Since every man climbing has their own issues to overcome, they all experience different horrors. | |

Game Within a Game | |
| Catherine (Video Game) / int_f7567671 | comment |
Game Within a Game: The arcade machine in the bar, which is eerily similar to the gameplay proper. Justified in that since the bartender is giving the block-climbing nightmares to the patrons of his bar, he put the game there to help them familiarize themselves with the nightmare world. Its rules are nearly the same as the nightmare game, except that instead of dealing with a time limit and enemies, you have limits on the number of block-pushes you can use. With 64 stages (and 64 more hidden stages after that), it's arguably big enough to be its own game. Of course, this is a game within a game within a TV show. The dreams themselves are games within a dream within a TV show. That's Colon Cancer for you. | |

Last-Second Ending Choice | |
| Catherine (Video Game) / int_fb2ff597 | comment |
Last-Second Ending Choice: A variation. Questions answered throughout the game affect your standing on the Karma Meter, but your actual ending is decided by your responses to the final 4 questions in the last stage. Depending on which you answer "yes" or "no" to, you'll be locked into either the Order, Chaos or Neutural ending. The variation comes with the fact that if you pick an ending that contradicts your Karma Meter (e.g. having mostly Chaos Karma but saying you prefer a life of stability), you'll get the Bad Ending version. So you do get to make a Last-Second Ending Choice, but if the game knows you aren't truly committed to it the ending won't be a good one. | |

Well-Intentioned Extremist: It's understandable that Mutton, or Dumuzid, would want men to continue to be faithful and continue to populate humanity. That's fine, but did he really have to do so in a way that involved death? Scaring them would be more than enough, but Mutton does infer he's also "weeding out" what he's deemed lesser males in favor of improving the gene pool. Or at least what Mutton believes is an improvement. | |

However, that same cake ends up rotting in the room a few days later, and ants end up crawling all over Vincent's dorm. Catherine, who somehow slept with Vincent again, questions why does Vincent have a cake after they clean up the mess. This causes a chain of incidents that lead to Vincent being suspected of cheating. A women's wrestling match is mentioned on the first night at the Stray Sheep, and becomes a betting point in the Freedom ending. In Full Body, the long showers Rin enjoys. The first shower was too cold, prompting Vincent to tend to Rin and teach Rin how to fix the temperature. Should Vincent choose to romance Rin, this would lead to them bonding over his helping with the temperature of the shower. Later as the game progresses, Rin takes another shower but the water gets too hot and Rin passes out, prompting Vincent to go help and there it is revealed that Rin is actually male. | |

Happy Ending: The True endings for each girl, resulting in getting married to her. Full Body also adds some new endings: Catherine's new ending where she and Vincent go back in time to Vincent's high school gives Vincent a better life together with Catherine for several years before getting married at The Stray Sheep. Catherine and Vincent are then shown to have 4 kids in the post-credits images. Rin's true ending where he starts touring and playing piano throughout space with Vincent as his manager, they are then seen getting married in the post-credits images. | |

Shown Their Work: Finishing your drinks in the bar gets you a bunch of accurate alcohol trivia, which is appropriate for a game where the protagonist drowns his sorrows so often. | |
