CrossCode is a 2018 action RPG developed by Radical Fish Games and published by Deck13, inspired by the likes of The Legend of Zelda and Alundra. Originally released on PC, the game was ported to consoles in 2020.A futuristic Massively Multiplayer Online Roleplaying Game called CrossWorlds is a revolutionary MMO. Its gameplay is literally physical, set in a planetary environment on the moon Shadoon, with players and game elements being "instant-matter" constructs. Some indeterminate time before the story begins, a young woman named Shizuka is attempting to rescue her brother Satoshi from some shady group who is trying to get him to work on the game against his will. When Shizuka reaches Satoshi, he finishes the program right before he collapses into her arms, begging her to escape the whole mess before he dies, much to her shock and grief.In the present, the avatar of a young woman named Lea materializes onto a cargo ship heading for CrossWorlds. Lea has lost her memories, and a few people helping her are trying to fix that. They think the answer lies somewhere in CrossWorlds. However, there is a slight problem: Lea's voice synchronization module is malfunctioning, rendering her functionally mute. Also, there's some strange, floating player who seems to be really, really interested in her for some reason...The game itself was successfully funded through crowdfunding after getting some attention for its surprisingly polished prototype demo, and was released in full on September 20, 2018 after seven years in development. The DLC expansion "A New Home" was released on February 26, 2021. | |

Retired Badass: Captain Jet apparently used to be a highly skilled player. And even though he's around working in regular human form, he still can kick quite a bit of ass with the help of his jetpack and rocket launcher. | |

The Unsolved Mystery: Ever wondered what kind of music the Rockin' Hillkat listen to? If you didn't, Emilie definitely will bring this up. You never learn what your friends look like offline. Is Emilie a dude? Does Lukas really have a fashionable goatee? Is Apollo's hair truly green? We may never know. | |

Earn Your Bad Ending | |
| CrossCode (Video Game) / int_132e865c | comment |
Earn Your Bad Ending: The option to have Lea meet up with Ivan and Beowulf becomes available late in the game. You're told outright that you can do it, where you can do it, and how you can do it. The game's narrative also explicitly spells it out that this meeting could very well be the deciding factor in whether or not Lea gets what she wants. Sure enough, choosing to ignore these prompts comes back to bite you at the very end. | |

Heroic Mime | |
| CrossCode (Video Game) / int_143e6c8d | comment |
Heroic Mime: Played with. Lea quickly gains a limited ability to speak a few words, with more unlocked as the story progresses as Sergey hard-codes them into her speech. Her limited speech is effectively treated as a bug in the game, which is not unheard of in CrossWorlds, and other characters who learn about it are quite understanding of Lea's condition and willing to accommodate her. The First Scholars in particular reassure her that her disability doesn't affect how they think of her. Lea's limited speech is generally unnoticed, because being able to say hello, her name, a few other pre-programmed words over time and use non-verbal communication still manages to get her quite far. (It's Played for Laughs when Emilie doesn't even notice because she tends to dominate every conversation she's in, and just thinks that Lea is the quiet type.) | |

A main theme. While Lea is an Evotar based on Shizuka, she's still considered a person in her own right, with feelings and a unique personality. On the other side, Sidwell's treatment of the Vermillion Wasteland Evotars and Expendable Clone philosophy is shown as cruel, unethical, and monstrous. | |

Unexpected Gameplay Change | |
| CrossCode (Video Game) / int_1467a30c | comment |
Unexpected Gameplay Change: Downplayed, as they don't change the gameplay itself, but various sidequests pit you in various situations outside of regular monster bashing and puzzle solving: A Maroon Valley sidequest has you making alcohol, out of all things, by cooling down brewing machines with ice pellets out of water bubbles. A quest in Basin Keep turns the game into a Tower Defense mission, making you create elemental turrets to hold down waves of enemies coming at you. | |

Final Dungeon Preview | |
| CrossCode (Video Game) / int_15fa54bf | comment |
Final Dungeon Preview: You are captured and taken to the Vermilion Wasteland about halfway through the game and eventually have to sneak your way through the Vermilion Tower. You return to the Vermilion Wasteland during the endgame, with the Vermilion Tower being the final dungeon. Some of the enemies during your first visit to the Wasteland are at endgame level, but you have a powerful Guest-Star Party Member to help you take them down. There are also elements of future puzzles seen in one room, but you can't use them yet. note New Game+ allows unlocking elements early, and completing that room's puzzle unlocks the Developer's Room. | |

All There in the Manual | |
| CrossCode (Video Game) / int_17ce80aa | comment |
Tim, the enemy in the Maroon Valley which looks rather akin to a gooey volcano, has a nearly impenetrable shield, which can lead players to think that it needs to be taken down later. Instead, if you hit it with Heat, it'll turn red and its attacks will grow about twice as strong — but it also becomes trivial to eliminate. (This information is given in the monster encyclopedia... and only appears after killing a certain number of Tims.) | |

Modular Difficulty: When starting on a New Game Plus playthrough, you can access a selection of modifiers to change the difficulty of the game using Trophy Points accumulated in your last playthrough. They can vary from boosting your credit and experience gain to voiding it entirely, and some others have more unique effects like slowing down time after a perfect dash to turning you into a One-Hit-Point Wonder. | |

Multiple Endings: Depending on whether or not Lea went to go talk to an important NPC, Evotars are either granted the opportunity for a place on the Playground for them, or are banned and Sergey is forced to delete their data. The DLC has two endings, one where C'tron is allowed to stay in Homestedt and one where he is exiled from both the town and the party. The ending doesn't change quite as much either way. | |

Ability Depletion Penalty | |
| CrossCode (Video Game) / int_2512a9d2 | comment |
Ability Depletion Penalty: The game has Elemental Modes that imbue your attacks with elemental boosts and let you access new abilities, but most attacks done with an elemental mode active will increase your Element Load, represented by the element icon getting more yellow. While it decays on its own with time, and even faster in Neutral Mode, accumulating too much Element Load will lead to Element Overload, which forces you into Neutral Mode for a good amount of time. | |

Holodeck Malfunction: Players transported to the Vermillion Wasteland find themselves somehow unable to log out of the game, not even by manually disconnecting the CrossGear. This turns out to be a subversion, as these people only believe that they are players. In reality, they are A.I.s created from brain scans of real players. They are not trapped by a malfunctioning game; they simply do not exist outside of the game. | |

It still has a headband though. | |

Force and Finesse: Downplayed in that both Shizuka and Apollo are capable of dealing good damage and evading attacks in their duels, but they prefer force and finesse respectively in their Combat Arts and strategies. Shizuka prefers more straightforward offensive arts like Ether Snipe, Ragnarok, and Gatling Arctillery while Apollo prefers trickier tactics like chaining multiple weaker Dash Arts and faking vulnerability in order to nail his opponent with Glitch Time or Vortex Tide. | |

Super Drowning Skills | |
| CrossCode (Video Game) / int_34bd7be2 | comment |
Super Drowning Skills: Everything in CrossWorlds will take ten percent of their maximum health in damage if they fall into water or off a cliff. This includes Lea, her party members and most enemies, allowing Lea to knock them into the water for extra damage. The backdoor of The Gut Punch drops avatars into the water, making Sergey comment on it if the first time it happens to Lea. "What was that? Did they honestly design it that way?" Two avatars in right before the entrance to Newcomer's Bridge End talk about exploring underwater, and it's noted that instant matter sort of explodes on contact with the liquid. Two avatars are seen in Rookie Harbor having a conversation about how instant matter dissolves in water. Dialogue in A New Home reveals that Instantainment was eventually able to make instant matter waterproof to a certain amount of pressure. | |

Randomly Drops: This can sometimes be a bit of a bear. While it's helped along with the various drill grades, as well as the straw hat, certain enemies both need a chain to drop certain items, and are so far apart that one needs to kill a lot of foes in between to maintain that chain. | |

Sequential Boss: Every boss has more than one, usually 3 phases. All of the PVP fights technically have five phases, since they're best-of-nine. Exaggerated with the final boss fights, who technically has sixteen different phases. Though the're all fairly short and the game autosaves at the halfway point. | |

Awful Truth | |
| CrossCode (Video Game) / int_363f94c9 | comment |
Awful Truth: Not only is Lea an AI clone of Shizuka, but the process used to create Lea was a direct cause of the current crisis threatening the game, meaning that everything that's gone wrong is partially her fault. This also means that Sergey was knowingly lying to Lea about her being in a coma in order to make her follow his orders. Lea does not take this well. | |

Clones Are People, Too | |
| CrossCode (Video Game) / int_36fa0cc | comment |
Clones Are People, Too: A main theme. While Lea is an Evotar based on Shizuka, she's still considered a person in her own right, with feelings and a unique personality. On the other side, Sidwell's treatment of the Vermillion Wasteland Evotars and Expendable Clone philosophy is shown as cruel, unethical, and monstrous. This gets brought up again at the end of "A New Home" with the current C'tron, who is an Evotar of an Evotar of Sidwell. Shizuka still considers him a clone of Sidwell, but Emilie argues that he has diverged enough from the original Sidwell and is now genuinely a friend to herself and Lea. | |

Boss-Arena Idiocy | |
| CrossCode (Video Game) / int_38d17b6c | comment |
Sir Blobus Starnikus downplays it; though its attacks get gradually harder to dodge, its stats get weaker as you get to further phases, and the main challenge is to circumvent the fact that, since it's stationary on the middle of the arena and it gets smaller as you whittle its health down, you'll need to figure out a way to get the conveniently-placed shock bomb to actually hit it. Once you get to its last phase, it begins actively chasing you around the arena with fast moves, but now it's so small and weak you can kill it with ordinary attacks. | |

Our Clones Are Different: The Evotars, copies of a CrossWorlds player's Digital Avatar running on an AI instead of a player. They generally do not know that they are really clones until somebody explicitly reveals it to them, but they aren't allowed in the Public Playground nor can they survive in water due to being made of Instant Matter. | |

Boring, but Practical | |
| CrossCode (Video Game) / int_39b8d3d6 | comment |
Boring, but Practical: Essence Drain and Vital Pulse, the level 1 and 2 Wave Throw Arts. Sure, they might lack the flashiness of Flare Burn!, the crowd control capabilities of Frigid Flake or the homing projectiles of Radiant Swarm. But you get to absorb the enemies's HP, often bringing you back to full life with a well-placed Vital Pulse. In a game where everything goes so fast and where your means of healing are limited, this can make or break a boss fight. The Level 2 Shock Throw Art, Radiant Swarm. If it lands, it spawns several small homing orbs that all track the target that Lea hit, allowing for a lot of easy Shock damage at range. The Level 3 Shock Throw Art does much more damage, but it's much harder to land, and can potentially send Lea hurling over a cliff. Elemental charged shots, and normal-mode regular shots. Rapid-fire or melee with an element does more raw damage and breaks bosses' guard faster, but both cause elemental overload. Charged shots can be used indefinitely without overloading, and are the main way to inflict status effects. Normal-mode rapid fire, meanwhile, quickly empties your elemental overload and fills your energy meter, even if you're doing 0 damage. Each element has a level 1 guard art which completely blocks one attack and applies a small element-specific counter. They all have upgraded level 2 and 3 versions, but defensively the level 1 gives you the most bang for your buck. The Neutral level 1 guard art, Guard Sphere, can reduce damage from most attacks, including unblockable ones. The Neutral level 1 melee art is surprisingly potent. It comes out fast, does a ton of hits, hits respectably hard, and knocks the enemy away afterward. Even after you start getting access to elements, its ability to hit weakpoints to build up the break meter remains useful. The Assault Modifier only works with the standard melee attack, which makes it seem weaker than the Assault modifier. However, it's deceptively powerful when stacked, since the sheer number of hits can fill an enemy's break gauge quickly. | |

Skill Scores and Perks: Five skill trees, in the form of the Circuits system. Each element, including Neutral, has a circuit tree you can spend CP on.

Surprisingly Realistic Outcome: For all of his godly powers inside of CrossWorlds, the Blue Avatar is still essentially a regular human controlling a puppet made of a fragile, ultra-light material that can't handle much force from conventional matter. Something he learns the hard way. Twice. CrossWorlds was released in early access, and some features aren't in the game yet. When Lea learns that the final dungeon for CrossWorld's story isn't implemented, she can find a handful of players around a NPC complaining about it or asking when the next update is. | |

Magikarp Power | |
| CrossCode (Video Game) / int_3f0310d6 | comment |
Magikarp Power: Defensive builds. When starting, you have very little circuit points to spend on defense perks, which only start taking real effect when acquired en-masse, which also means you'll be screwing yourself out of offensive capabilities. That, and defense-oriented armor is both rare and very expensive to get, unlike attack-oriented and balanced armor, which means you'll suffer from an accentuated Early Game Hell. To make matters worse, most of the defense-oriented upgrades are focused on the Cold elemental mode... which is sealed within the bowels of the Faj'iro Temple, filled with fire-elemental enemies which have titanic attack stats. However, once you do get a defensive run going, this means that you'll be able to tank attacks that would normally severely hurt you or even one-shot you - that, and your shield can reduce all◊ incoming attacks to zero damage. That's right, not even Scratch Damage will hurt you. It gets better: If you acquire the Pin-body circuits and equipment that boosts it, your shield will gain the ability to deal Collision Damage, based on the attack strength and your defense. Eventually, a defense player can kill mooks just by blocking their attacks. By around the Level 50 mark, an ideal defensive run character will have a Defense stat over 400◊! invoked The Core Drill. It's a weapon you can buy in Rookie Harbor whose stats are about average for a Level 10 weapon, with the special perk of increasing your Random Drops rate. The problem? The materials you need to craft it are inaccessible until you've cleared Temple Mine, for which the recommended level is 18, meaning it's guaranteed to be outclassed by the time you can make it. That being said, if you bring it to a merchant in Maroon Valley, you'll be able to upgrade it to the Level 30 Giga Spiral Drill, which is about the level at which you'll leave Maroon Valley. This would be enough of an example on its own, but if you then bring it to Basin Keep in the middle of Gaia's Garden, you'll be able to upgrade it a second time to the Level 51 Galaxy Spiral Drill. And if you read a note the trader leaves behind, you can do a side-quest to upgrade it one final time to the Infinity Spiral Drill. The DLC adds one more upgrade in the form of the Singularity Drill, an ascended weapon. | |

Bittersweet Ending | |
| CrossCode (Video Game) / int_40cc0c7e | comment |
Bittersweet Ending: The good ending, in more ways than one. Sidwell's plot has been foiled and the systematic abuse of the Evotars has been ended. Yet Gautham commits suicide after "the ultimate experience" with Lea, unable to continue doing Instatainment's dirty work anymore, while Sidwell basically just washes his hands of everything, and walks away scot-free after everything he's done. Lea eventually has to be permanently logged out in order for Sergey to try and convince Instatainment to research Evotars. However, Sergey and Ivan both end up convincing the board to go forward with the Evotar program in a few months, meaning Lea will be able to see all of her friends again, which she does in A New Home. While Shizuka and all of Lea's fellow Evotars are now free from Sidwell's exploitation and abuse, the Evotars must come to terms with the knowledge that they can never return to the real world. Of the three friends Sergey set out to find, one was dead before he began, another committed suicide, and the third has been reduced from a cheerful young girl to a bitter Broken Bird. In spite of this, he still saved dozens of innocent victims he hadn't even known about, formed a genuine friendship with Lea, and can (potentially) grant them all a far brighter future. | |

| CrossCode (Video Game) / int_4e3d253b | comment |
Downer Ending: The bad ending. In addition to Sidwell basically getting away with black market information trading and torture, Lea and the other Evotars are permanently banned from the game by Instatainment, forcing Sergey to delete them all and essentially commit genocide on the entire race. This means that Lea is effectively dead and she'll never see her friends again. Emilie, in particular, is distraught. As the game cannot continue into A New Home if the Evotars are extinct, after the ending, a portal will appear in Meta-Space that allows Lea to go back in time and make things right. | |

PurposefullyOverpowered | |
| CrossCode (Video Game) / int_5554487f | comment |
Purposefully Overpowered: The "Sergey Hax" ability in New Game Plus. Lea does so much damage that pretty much everything is a One-Hit Kill. It even gets some Gameplay and Story Integration; other characters comment on how strong Lea is, and Apollo's accusations of cheating are much harder to deny. After their third PVP duel, Apollo says he's going to report Lea to the moderators until Joern convinces him that this is probably something that she can't turn off. It helps that Lea is undergoing some rather hard times emotionally, as Joern comments on how Lea is alone, miserable, quiet even for her, and almost on the verge of tears. Far from the "dirty cheater" who doesn't care about the rules that Apollo claims she is. This convinces Apollo to let it slide. Later on, after the events of the base game, Sergey tells Apollo about the piece of code that makes her so strong and he forgives her. By the time of their rematch in A New Home, Apollo hopes that Lea was able to deactivate it. He is not amused when he learns she can't turn it off. Although his expectations for a fair fight are ruined once more, Apollo is no longer angry with Lea, just unhappy over his ruined hopes. | |

Bragging Rights Reward | |
| CrossCode (Video Game) / int_55e5b37c | comment |
Bragging Rights Reward: The Infinity Spiral Drill. It's one of the most powerful weapons in the game, but it takes a Chain of Deals that lasts almost the whole game before it can be obtained. One of the Drill's special abilities increases enemy drop rate. But since it's one of the hardest weapons to obtain in the game that's also within the level range of the final dungeon, there's not much incentive to use it to farm drops outside of completionism. And since it also prevents Lea from gaining experience while she's got it equipped, it definitely won't be used for normal level grinding. Averted in the DLC, where more materials and trade options are added, including an upgrade to the drill itself. | |

Helping Would Be Killstealing: Discussed by Wervyn and Puelladocta. They note that the Last Minute Heroes' mission to save other players could be viewed as kill stealing. However, CrossWorlds will prevent those who jump into ongoing battles from getting EXP and loot. Regardless, some player don't want to be saved and prefer the challenge of overcoming the battles on their own, though most appreciate what the guild is doing. | |

Why Did It Have to Be Snakes? | |
| CrossCode (Video Game) / int_5beef860 | comment |
Why Did It Have to Be Snakes?: Poor Emilie is terrified of bugs. This doesn't stop her from tearing her way through the ice dungeon, of course, but she complains to Lea about it a total of three times. Doubles as a Brick Joke at Pumpkin Fun Land; the final showdown of that level is a fight against tens upon thousands upon thousands of respawning, fire-breathing bugs. Emilie even lampshades it, saying she thought she left the bugs behind for good back at Bergen Trail. Subverted in Sapphire Ridge. While Emilie is absolutely terrified of the samurai beetles, she has no problem fighting spiders. At one point, when you enter an arena of spiders, Emilie even hopes that it's only spiders. | |

Central Theme | |
| CrossCode (Video Game) / int_5ce7dbb9 | comment |
Central Theme: Empathy and sympathy. Lea's entire predicament regarding her speech module shoves a wedge in her progress multiple times until another character can understand her situation and offer their help. Lea can resonate with Lukas losing his memory of the offline world in the Vermillion Wasteland, and Lukas can understand Lea's emotional turmoil after her run-in with Shizuka. It's by them bonding over their shared situation that helps them plan and escape. Lea and Emilie's entire debacle after Lea is forcibly ejected out of the raid and can't explain herself is solved by C'tron making them understand each other's viewpoints. At first, Sergey saw Lea only as a tool to accomplish his goals. However, seeing her struggles and development caused Sergey to begin working for her sake, damn the consequences to himself. The Big Bad lacked empathy for the people under them, and cared nothing about the moral implications of letting Evotars exist as sentient beings with their own free will. One of his Evotars, C'tron, ends up diverging from his original personality by developing empathy for Lea and their friends, leading to C'tron turning against Sidwell. The true ending. It's unlocked by speaking with Beowulf before the Point of No Return, involves Beowulf, despite his initial hesitation, ultimately showing empathy towards Lea and the Evotars as a whole, and it is his words and encouragement that convinces Instatainment to give the Evotars a second chance. | |

Bizarro Elements: Heat, Cold, and Shock are straightforward enough... then there's Wave. It's associated with aquatic enemies, but instead of the water you'd expect, it's a rubbery-sounding green energy that, in the player's hands, grants Combo Platter Powers including Gradual Regeneration, Life Drain, pushing enemies backwards, explosions, illusions, appropriately enough a Wave-Motion Gun, and making enemies more vulnerable to projectiles. The other characters aren't sure what to make of it either. The Radical Fish Games enemies fought in the credits of A New Home appear to have an actual water element instead of the "Wave" type. | |

| CrossCode (Video Game) / int_72d43279 | comment |
Blocking Stops All Damage: Averted by default, you just take reduced damage through your shield (and the shield breaks after taking too much damage). However, if you focus your skills and gear on defense, you can reach the point of taking 0 damage. On top of that, the Perfect Guard mechanic reduces all damage to 0 if Lea guards just as the attack lands. Downplayed for the enemies. While they aren't completely immune to attacks when in a blocking stance, they will take very little damage. | |

The true ending. It's unlocked by speaking with Beowulf before the Point of No Return, involves Beowulf, despite his initial hesitation, ultimately showing empathy towards Lea and the Evotars as a whole, and it is his words and encouragement that convinces Instatainment to give the Evotars a second chance. | |

Attack Its Weak Point | |
| CrossCode (Video Game) / int_82108e3d | comment |
Attack Its Weak Point: A core mechanic in the game requires you to find out how to break enemy defense and hail damage on it while it's stunned. The tutorial boss on the MS Solar is a Robot Giant Enemy Crab, and its weak point is covered by a crate that collapses and reveals its crystal energy source (along with providing a convenient ramp right to it) when the crab lands from a too high of a jump. | |

Elemental Rock-Paper-Scissors: The game has four elements, each associated with a stat: Heat, associated with Attack; Cold, associated with Defense; Shock, associated with Focus; and Wave, associated with Health. Generally, Heat and Cold cancel each other, and ditto for Shock and Wave. There are enemies who are weak to two elements and resistant to the remaining two (example: Gellerics are resistant to Wave and Heat, but weak to Cold and Shock). | |

"Just Frame" Bonus | |
| CrossCode (Video Game) / int_86c919e3 | comment |
"Just Frame" Bonus: Perfectly timing your block input will mean you take 0 damage from the attack you blocked, and you might stun the enemy if you get a perfect guard against certain attacks. The Focus stat and Royal Guard modifier both increase the timing window to get a perfect guard, and the Avenger modifier restores your SP faster when you achieve a perfect guard. There's a small amount of invincibility frames when dashing, which can be increased with additional Focus or the Flash Step modifier. In PvP fights, the opponent can take advantage of this mechanic to dodge the player's combat arts. | |

Absurdly High Level Cap | |
| CrossCode (Video Game) / int_91526ff7 | comment |
Absurdly High Level Cap: The maximum level is 99, which is probably not something most players are going to reach without bolstering the enemy levels in the fields with boosters or activating Exp Multipliers for a New Game+ playthrough. The game expects Lea to be around level 60 or so for the final boss of the base game. Also, reaching the maximum level doesn't give quite enough circuit points to unlock every ability on its own. In-universe, one fellow player in Basin Keep notes that he got to level 99 long beforehand... by killing tens of thousands of Hedgehags. Ouch. | |

Damage-Sponge Boss: Exaggerated. Lea goes up against a snail boss which has fifty quintillion HP.note That's 50 followed by 18 zeroes, or 50,000,000,000,000,000,000. Luckily for Lea, Sergey cheats in her favor to make the boss capable of taking any sort of meaningful damage. The Final Boss of the main story hacks its own HP to consistently multiply it, giving itself 2.2 quadrillion times its normal health by the end, while the final boss of the DLC gives itself an absurdly high defense stat. In both instances, Lea's mission control has to step in and attach damage buffs to the bosses' minions that Lea can claim by defeating them. | |

Turing Test: Mentioned in some Cross Central dialogue about the tutorial NPCs just repeating dialogue. Discussed later but still early in the game by a pair of players commenting on NPC dialog trees. Specifically, the players talk about how much nuance is required for an AI to pass such a test. Incidentally, the conversation itself becomes an unintentional Turing Test once Lea joins in - and she passes with flying colors, even though she only has two words in her vocabulary. | |

Essence Drain and Vital Pulse, the level 1 and 2 Wave Throw Arts. Sure, they might lack the flashiness of Flare Burn!, the crowd control capabilities of Frigid Flake or the homing projectiles of Radiant Swarm. But you get to absorb the enemies's HP, often bringing you back to full life with a well-placed Vital Pulse. In a game where everything goes so fast and where your means of healing are limited, this can make or break a boss fight. | |

Interface Spoiler: After Lukas joins the party at level 60 in the Vermillion Wasteland, the party menu will show two entries for him, with the other one at level 56. This is foreshadowing that the Lukas in the party isn't the real one. Subverted in the final dungeon. Comparing the elevator's numbers with the size of the empty space might lead the player to believe that there's a total of 15 floors in the Vermillion Tower. However, after the 4th floor, the game goes straight to the end floor, meaning the dungeon is actually "only" five floors long. | |

Foreshadowing: Apollo calls Lea out for leaving the tutorial area at a higher level than possible, and deduces she must have cheated somehow; while it can come off as him deducing such through logic, he possibly knows it's impossible because he went through the area twice beforehand (once on his previous playthrough, the other as his current avatar) and found no way to do so. Similarly, when realizing Lea can't talk, his first reaction is an angry "How is that STILL be a thing?", something that wouldn't make sense if he was a new player who would have heard about this beforehand. Sergey says that in the event of an error, he still has "backups" of Lea in case of emergencies. That isn't exactly something you can do with a human conscious. | |

One-Hit Kill | |
| CrossCode (Video Game) / int_a414c3f0 | comment |
Activating "Sergey Hax" in the New Game Plus menu causes Lea to do an insane amount of damage with every attack — her attacks will do literally thousands of times more damage than normal. Emilie will comment on how boring it is having a party member who gets a One-Hit Kill on everything. After Lea first parties up with someone, her text will be red for a bit with insane expressions on her face, reveling in how much damage she's doing. Apollo will openly call Lea out for cheating, even threatening to report her to the game's moderators. However, the one subversion with this boost is the Final Boss, who works Lea's damage into their calculations for the final battle, resulting in a fight that's just as tough as normal. | |

Infinity +1 Sword | |
| CrossCode (Video Game) / int_a5e02e9e | comment |
Infinity +1 Sword: Subverted with the Infinity Spiral Drill. While it has decent stats and is obtained from a very long-spanning series of quests, it is primarily a weapon used for farming drops rather than a weapon with modifiers specialized for combat. The tradable ascended gear in the DLC counts as this due to their ability to scale to the player's level. However, none of them are a clear contender for the strongest weapon due to how each one has different modifiers and stat balancing. The superiority of each one largely depends on both the player's preferences and the combat situation. Invoked by name with the Infinity+1 Bag, an upgrade to the Infinite Bag. | |

Rule of Three | |
| CrossCode (Video Game) / int_a6cda066 | comment |
Poor Emilie is terrified of bugs. This doesn't stop her from tearing her way through the ice dungeon, of course, but she complains to Lea about it a total of three times. Doubles as a Brick Joke at Pumpkin Fun Land; the final showdown of that level is a fight against tens upon thousands upon thousands of respawning, fire-breathing bugs. Emilie even lampshades it, saying she thought she left the bugs behind for good back at Bergen Trail. | |

Sidwell's plot has been foiled and the systematic abuse of the Evotars has been ended. Yet Gautham commits suicide after "the ultimate experience" with Lea, unable to continue doing Instatainment's dirty work anymore, while Sidwell basically just washes his hands of everything, and walks away scot-free after everything he's done. | |

Version-Exclusive Content | |
| CrossCode (Video Game) / int_a868d6e | comment |
Version-Exclusive Content: The console ports and original PC version each had their own exclusive late-game quest, with the quests having similar structure but different locations and enemies. Each quest gave the player a hint to finding a secret event that ties the quests together, but all the hints are needed in order to find it. The developers' intent was that players from different platforms were supposed to share hints with each other. As of Version 1.4.2, to coincide with the game's 3rd Year Anniversary, the platform exclusivity for these quests was removed, allowing players on all platforms to play each quest and obtain every pet. | |

And I Must Scream: Players in the Vermillion Wasteland are not only unable to teleport out of the area but they also find themselves unable to log out or even disable the CrossGear neural gear, leaving them trapped in the game. As it turns out they cannot log out because they are not really players at all, but AI copies of players; however they are still fully sentient and unaware of their nature, thus they suffer the same kind of Sanity Slippage that a human would. | |

Final Boss: Gautham, aka the Blue Avatar is the final boss of the main mode as The Creator. The DLC has Evotar Sidwell as the very last boss. In-universe, the Twilight Master serves as the last boss of CrossWorlds before the main plot abruptly ends, as the game is still in early access and the final dungeon isn't complete. A New Home starts shortly before the release of the final dungeon and the actual final boss of CrossWorlds: Di'orbis and the Gods of Shape. | |

Shokats and Jack'on'Fires play this straight - if you hurt them enough, they'll each unleash their own Special Attack. Shokats will suck you in like a black hole and take away huge chunks of your HP if you get too close; Jack'on'Fires will unleash a difficult-to-dodge attack that will practically deal an One-Hit Kill to anyone who isn't either a Stone Wall or a huge damage sponge. | |

My Rules Are Not Your Rules: Downplayed in PvP fights. While the enemy Avatar's stats and skills are the same as the player can achieve, they're harder to stagger. On the flip side, they will glow whenever they're about to use a strong combat art and they become vulnerable right after using a strong art, which is a disadvantage the player doesn't have. | |

Trapped in Another World: Lea is effectively trapped in CrossWorlds while she and Sergey try to recover her memories. Ultimately ends up as a subversion of the standard trope. While Evotars believe they're trapped in the game, they don't exist outside of it, and the only people actually trapped are the small handful of people physically stuck on the world that CrossWorlds takes place on. | |

Break Meter | |
| CrossCode (Video Game) / int_b937a16f | comment |
Break Meter: Both enemies and Lea have one. Lea's ability to guard can be disabled by blocking too many attacks in succession. A lot of enemies have a meter that, when filled, inflicts a status that's outright named "Break". Once an enemy is broken, it always takes more damage and usually (but not always) will be stunned temporarily. The condition to fill it changes with each enemy: some enemies like Shokats can be broken at any time with any attack, but some enemies like Tim require a specific element, and others like the Pinceron can only be broken when they're using specific attacks. | |

Company Cameo: CrossCode has some references to its creators, Radical Fish Games - mainly in the form of the bespectacled, mustached, top hat-wearing fish mascot featured in their logo. Early versions of the game had "Sir Radfish van Blubb", whose dialogue sprite was the company's logo itself. He was used to give messages from the developers, and is decidedly non-canon. The Developer's Room has a desk decoration◊ based on the fish from their logo. One sidequest has you fighting against another in-universe player named Sao. After defeating him, his Sore Loser complaints get him booted from the game by Radical Fish Games themselves. In the credits of the "A New Home" DLC, you fight "RadFish" - blue fish with mustaches, top hats, and sunglasses, just like the mascot. | |

| CrossCode (Video Game) / int_cfd569ac | comment |
Take Your Time: Downplayed. In-universe, every dungeon is instanced, meaning each player gets their own version of it. Emilie and Lea turn trying to clear their dungeons into a friendly race to see who can complete them faster. Take too long in any dungeon, and Emilie will beat Lea to the finish. However, winning or losing any dungeon "race" doesn't affect the story, aside from slightly changing the scene right after completing the dungeon, depending on who won. There's also no rewards for completing the dungeons first, outside of a 500-point trophy for clearing all of them before her, and that's only good for New Game Plus. | |

Broken Bird | |
| CrossCode (Video Game) / int_d08595d3 | comment |
Of the three friends Sergey set out to find, one was dead before he began, another committed suicide, and the third has been reduced from a cheerful young girl to a bitter Broken Bird. In spite of this, he still saved dozens of innocent victims he hadn't even known about, formed a genuine friendship with Lea, and can (potentially) grant them all a far brighter future. | |

Developer's Foresight | |
| CrossCode (Video Game) / int_d24ed873 | comment |
Developer's Foresight: Characters will react accordingly to things that seem out of place with Lea if you manipulate the game mechanics or Level Grind. Take the time to grind before your first battle with Apollo? He'll acknowledge that you spent a lot of time before the duel to get Lea's stats up. Should you ridiculously over-level or have really high stats, Apollo will notice, saying "What is up with your stats?" Several of the changes available on a New Game Plus will be noticed by the characters in-universe if you use them. Carrying over things like credits, items, elements, etc. will have Sergey openly wondering how Lea has all of those things in her inventory. Carrying over Lea's level will have people comment on how overleveled she is. It also makes Apollo's accusations of cheating more accurate, though not for the reasons he thinks. Activating "Sergey Hax" in the New Game Plus menu causes Lea to do an insane amount of damage with every attack — her attacks will do literally thousands of times more damage than normal. Emilie will comment on how boring it is having a party member who gets a One-Hit Kill on everything. After Lea first parties up with someone, her text will be red for a bit with insane expressions on her face, reveling in how much damage she's doing. Apollo will openly call Lea out for cheating, even threatening to report her to the game's moderators. However, the one subversion with this boost is the Final Boss, who works Lea's damage into their calculations for the final battle, resulting in a fight that's just as tough as normal. | |

After-Combat Recovery | |
| CrossCode (Video Game) / int_d5a561a0 | comment |
After-Combat Recovery: While outside of combat, the player's health will rapidly recover to full in just a few seconds. It's designed so that if a player misses a jump, falls into water or plummets off of a cliff, the HP penalty is momentary. It's still possible to jump into hazards so often that you die out of combat, but you'd really have to be trying to do that. | |

Anti-Frustration Features | |
| CrossCode (Video Game) / int_d6f284a3 | comment |
Anti-Frustration Features: The "Assist" menu allows you to lower the damage you receive, reduce the frequency of enemy attacks, and slow down puzzle elements, each by up to half of normal. There is no penalty whatsoever for using the Assist menu's options, including having no effect on the story. You can also change the level of an effect at any time (even in the middle of a fight), in case you find one particular boss or puzzle a bit too hard. When a CP has been invested into a branching Circuit path, you can freely swap between the two paths out of battle, allowing you to use the other Combat Arts at no cost. Circuit Overrides are handed out to you during the game, which can be spent in Rookie Harbor to completely reset a circuit tree. The 1.2.0 update also gave the option to reset all of your circuits at once for a small fee of credits. After beating the game, you can go back in time to the very beginning of Chapter 10, keeping the levels and items you obtained. If you do so, you'll be able to skip the final raid, the entirety of The Very Definitely Final Dungeon, and even the final boss. This makes the good ending much less frustrating to achieve if you didn't get it the first time. The game autosaves halfway through the fight against the Final Boss, meaning you won't have to fight the first part of the battle again if you went all the way through to the final part and lost. New Game Plus gives you the option to skip the intro (which is a glorified tutorial) and go straight to the first chapter. It also costs no Trophy Points to do this. Most bosses forcibly recover from a combo after you knock their HP gauge past a threshold. If they heal past the threshold, they can't use that threshold again to break out of a combo. However, this also means the player won't get a free heal from that threshold. | |

Artificial Brilliance | |
| CrossCode (Video Game) / int_df11acbe | comment |
Artificial Brilliance: The party member AI is quite good at dodging stuff from enemies, and can easily snipe them from a good distance. If they take a lot of damage, they'll also make sure to try get away from the battle before attempting to heal up. This is particularly clear in the PVP fights against other avatars like Apollo, who learn from the player's actions in the early rounds, and adapt to a human playstyle. Dodging the player's projectiles is one thing, but they will also stop attacking if the player tries to use a perfect guard art too early. | |

Turns Red | |
| CrossCode (Video Game) / int_e3ab9e00 | comment |
Turns Red: Zig-zagged. Shokats and Jack'on'Fires play this straight - if you hurt them enough, they'll each unleash their own Special Attack. Shokats will suck you in like a black hole and take away huge chunks of your HP if you get too close; Jack'on'Fires will unleash a difficult-to-dodge attack that will practically deal an One-Hit Kill to anyone who isn't either a Stone Wall or a huge damage sponge. Tim, the enemy in the Maroon Valley which looks rather akin to a gooey volcano, has a nearly impenetrable shield, which can lead players to think that it needs to be taken down later. Instead, if you hit it with Heat, it'll turn red and its attacks will grow about twice as strong — but it also becomes trivial to eliminate. (This information is given in the monster encyclopedia... and only appears after killing a certain number of Tims.) Sir Blobus Starnikus downplays it; though its attacks get gradually harder to dodge, its stats get weaker as you get to further phases, and the main challenge is to circumvent the fact that, since it's stationary on the middle of the arena and it gets smaller as you whittle its health down, you'll need to figure out a way to get the conveniently-placed shock bomb to actually hit it. Once you get to its last phase, it begins actively chasing you around the arena with fast moves, but now it's so small and weak you can kill it with ordinary attacks. | |

Clone Angst: Discussed. Sergey talks about how while Evotars were in development, some of them would learn the truth about themselves and not take it well. Seeing as how Lea reacts to learning she's a clone of Shizuka, how Lukas reacts to being unable to properly log off, and how the Evotars in the Vermillion Wasteland act after being stuck in the game for god knows how long, one could only imagine what the Evotars were going through before the project was shut down. | |

Penultimate Weapon | |
| CrossCode (Video Game) / int_ed8ca7e1 | comment |
Penultimate Weapon: At first glance, the Infinity Spiral Drill appears to be the strongest weapon in the game, due to its reference to Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann, its description claiming it has infinite power, and the amount of sidequests required to obtain it. However, it turns out to be weaker than other weapons around the same level in terms of stats and modifiers. It also has a drop rate increasing modifier at the cost of any EXP gain, ultimately making this weapon a glorified stepping stone for getting better gear. Even its ascended version, the Singularity Drill, is still a farming weapon that is overshadowed by most other ascended gear. | |

Fighter, Mage, Thief: The class system in CrossWorlds adheres to both of these somewhat, but in a somewhat abstract way: Triblader is basically the Damager/Fighter, primarily using a blade. Lukas and Raph use this class. Quadroguard is basically the Tank. This is Linda's and Joern's class. Pentafist is basically a Bare-Fisted Monk, as Emilie demonstrates. Hexacast is the mage class, and Albert's and C'Tron's roles. Spheromancer is the Jack of All Stats. It's Lea and Apollo's class, but not the Master of None depending on how you allocate your CP. | |

Wake-Up Call Boss | |
| CrossCode (Video Game) / int_f4a0408f | comment |
Wake-Up Call Boss: Apollo. For the most part, the tutorial puzzles and enemies are pathetically easy and the first real level, Autumn's Rise, can be tricky but still easily doable. Then, just as you reach the beginning of Bergen Trail, Apollo stops you from proceeding and demands you to fight against him. He does not hold back and is a straight example of the Turns Red trope mentioned before - as the battle progresses, he changes his playstyle and gets very aggressive very fast. Fortunately you don't have to win against him (defeating him is often a Self-Imposed Challenge), but the battle itself is supposed to be a warning that things will only get harder from there. Indeed, Bergen Trail introduces the game's very first Demonic Spiders: Horny Goats and Karottos (the latter of which can easily one-shot you).invoked | |

Mutually Exclusive Power-Ups | |
| CrossCode (Video Game) / int_f53dd5eb | comment |
Mutually Exclusive Power-Ups: The Circuit board has this in two forms. Each board has several branching paths, allowing Lea to use one attack or the other. Broadly speaking, one attack deals with a single opponent, while the other is area-of-effect. Both can't be used at the same time. However, outside of battle, a player can switch them at no cost. A few Circuit Nodes will eventually become this. Even if you reach the level cap of 99, you'll never get enough Circuit Points to activate every node. As a result, some picking and choosing must inevitably occur. | |

Defensive builds. When starting, you have very little circuit points to spend on defense perks, which only start taking real effect when acquired en-masse, which also means you'll be screwing yourself out of offensive capabilities. That, and defense-oriented armor is both rare and very expensive to get, unlike attack-oriented and balanced armor, which means you'll suffer from an accentuated Early Game Hell. To make matters worse, most of the defense-oriented upgrades are focused on the Cold elemental mode... which is sealed within the bowels of the Faj'iro Temple, filled with fire-elemental enemies which have titanic attack stats. However, once you do get a defensive run going, this means that you'll be able to tank attacks that would normally severely hurt you or even one-shot you - that, and your shield can reduce all◊ incoming attacks to zero damage. That's right, not even Scratch Damage will hurt you. It gets better: If you acquire the Pin-body circuits and equipment that boosts it, your shield will gain the ability to deal Collision Damage, based on the attack strength and your defense. Eventually, a defense player can kill mooks just by blocking their attacks. By around the Level 50 mark, an ideal defensive run character will have a Defense stat over 400◊! invoked | |

RandomDrops | |
| CrossCode (Video Game) / int_f994d95c | comment |
The Core Drill. It's a weapon you can buy in Rookie Harbor whose stats are about average for a Level 10 weapon, with the special perk of increasing your Random Drops rate. The problem? The materials you need to craft it are inaccessible until you've cleared Temple Mine, for which the recommended level is 18, meaning it's guaranteed to be outclassed by the time you can make it. That being said, if you bring it to a merchant in Maroon Valley, you'll be able to upgrade it to the Level 30 Giga Spiral Drill, which is about the level at which you'll leave Maroon Valley. This would be enough of an example on its own, but if you then bring it to Basin Keep in the middle of Gaia's Garden, you'll be able to upgrade it a second time to the Level 51 Galaxy Spiral Drill. And if you read a note the trader leaves behind, you can do a side-quest to upgrade it one final time to the Infinity Spiral Drill. The DLC adds one more upgrade in the form of the Singularity Drill, an ascended weapon. | |

Don't Explain the Joke | |
| CrossCode (Video Game) / int_fabef10f | comment |
Don't Explain the Joke: Emilie asks Schneider about his name. He answers "I'm a Triblader. I cut things". Emilie still does not get it since it's a German pun, and she's French. | |

Friendly Rivalry | |
| CrossCode (Video Game) / int_fbd5fda1 | comment |
Friendly Rivalry: Emilie becomes something of a rival to Lea early on, but they act more like competitive friends. The only time they ever compete against each other is in their dungeon races, and that's just an informal thing between the two of them. Apollo, a fellow Spheromancer, is more of a proper rival. He initially accuses Lea of cheating (which she technically did, but by accident, and the slightly higher level is not really ban-worthy). Lea will earn Apollo's respect if you beat him down during your duel, but he intends to ensure that you keep your wits about you and don't get complacent. | |

Alternative Turing Test | |
| CrossCode (Video Game) / int_fbfe572b | comment |
Alternative Turing Test: During the good ending's sidequest, Ivan tries to test Lea to see not only how humanlike her reactions are (by asking her simple-yet-disorienting questions about the weather or the color of her favorite fruit), but also if she is actually an Evotar instead of a human masquerading as an AI (By using a program to make her listen to a minute-long record instantly). | |

Hopeless Boss Fight | |
| CrossCode (Video Game) / int_fc07d409 | comment |
Hopeless Boss Fight: The first fight against the blue avatar (also a Final Boss Preview). If you survive long enough Sergey will create an escape route for you. But the boss will cut it off as soon as he sees it, then throw away all pretense of fighting fair. The outcome is the same as if you'd lost right away. | |

Brain Uploading | |
| CrossCode (Video Game) / int_fc52510 | comment |
Brain Uploading: The Brain/Computer Interface used for CrossWorlds creates a map of the brain so sophisticated that it is possible to completely replicate brain functions and create an artificial intelligence using the interface data as a starting point. | |

Theme Naming | |
| CrossCode (Video Game) / int_fd94c4ac | comment |
Theme Naming: The classes are mainly portmanteaus of "[Latin Number] + [Noun]". Triblader, Quadroguard, Pentafist, and Hexacast, with Spheromancer being the Odd Name Out. Shadoboxxer outside the Ba'kii Kum Seeker Hub plays with this, saying that she's a Heptalancer in her other account. | |

Death by a Thousand Cuts: The Assault Modifier adds additional weak projectiles to Lea's melee attacks and stacking this modifier can result in a hefty amount of projectiles. | |

Situational Damage Attack | |
| CrossCode (Video Game) / int_fef3305b | comment |
Situational Damage Attack: The Throw Art, Ether Snipe, increases in power based on how many times it bounces off a wall before it hits an enemy. This trait can't be used in arenas with no walls, but even at its weakest it can still deal damage on par with other level 3 arts. | |
