Multiple Endings |
| | Dominique Pamplemousse (Video Game) / int_1aa08f77 |
comment |
Multiple Endings: The first game has several endings; the sequel carries all of them over into a single continuity (but itself has just one ending...kinda). Dominique refuses to work for Prudence, fails to bring her to justice, and decides to change their life for the better by finding a new profession. Dominique accepts Prudence's offer, getting money and benefits. They hope to be an Internal Reformist and undo Prudence's empire from the inside out. |

Screw the Rules, I Have Money! |

comment |
Screw the Rules, I Have Money!: Prudence laughs in the ending where you refuse to work for her. She says Dominique could try to bring her to justice, but she has connections and enough money to make the murder charges vanish. All Dominque does is clear her own name, proving Prudence right. |

Anachronism Stew: The game is in black-and-white, some of the characters seem to have walked out of '40s Film Noir, and Dominique claims at the beginning to have had no work since the Depression, but there are also modern signifiers like shopping malls and wifi-enabled laptops. |

Pop Quiz: Combinatorial Explosion! has an 8-question quiz to determine if you're likely going to enjoy the game. The quiz result claims you're likely to hate the game if you choose answers that seem less tolerant, while it will say you'll like the game if you get the answers perfect. |

Ambiguous Gender: The protagonist. Several people they talk to are confused which pronouns to use for them, and at one point when asked if they are "a girl or a boy" Dominique simply says that they went through puberty ages ago, and thus it isn't relevant. |

Cutting Off the Branches |
| | Dominique Pamplemousse (Video Game) / int_52475ffd |
comment |
Cutting Off the Branches: Averted in the second game; rather than privilege a single ending from the first game, it posits that they all happened, with the result that there are now multiple Dominiques hanging about the place and interacting with one another. |

Cut to the credits, with the Dominiques deciding It's the Journey That Counts. |
