| Eastward (Video Game) | comment |
Eastward is a Retraux-style video game developed by Pixpil and published by Chucklefish Studios. It combines action-adventure, RPG, and puzzle-solving elements into a videogame highly reminiscent of The Legend of Zelda, but with a heavy dose of modern storytelling tropes.In a near-future society on the brink of collapse, a hardworking miner called John discovers a young girl named Sam in a secret underground facility. This unlikely pair will embark on an emotional journey to discover the truth, traveling across a wonderfully weird world and exploring bustling towns, curious campsites and shady forests.The game released to Steam on September 16, 2021 as well as Nintendo Switch as a timed console exclusive.A DLC, Eastward Octopia was announced on 2023. Acting as a standalone experience from the main story, it focuses on cultivating a farm and helping a town regrow in an Alternate Universe of the setting.Has a characters page in much need of love. Please make sure to add tropes related to characters there. | |

Heroic Mime | |
| Eastward (Video Game) / int_143e6c8d | comment |
Heroic Mime: In contrast to the chatty Sam, John doesn't speak a single word, only grunting in battle. A common gag in the game involves John answering a phone and the person on the receiving end wondering why the line is silent, only to quickly conclude that it must be John. | |

Artificial Human | |
| Eastward (Video Game) / int_1ee0948e | comment |
Artificial Human: The ultimate goal of the other Sam known as 'Mother' is to make perfect humans, bred in artificial chambers and labs found throughout the world. It's implied that for hundreds, if not thousands of years, Charon would ride out into the world, unleashing the MIASMA and killing the current living humans, after which Mother would then replace them with new humans. When those humans failed, Charon would then kill those humans and the cycle repeats. Sam is a special type of artificial human, specifically a piece of Mother, whose physical body can be taken over by Mother's spirit to effectively allow her to be immortal. Because these events have gone on for so long, it's possible that everyone in the game world has descended from artificial humans. | |

Ability Depletion Penalty: Sam can use a charged attack that consumes much more energy than her normal energy sphere. However doing it without enough energy will lock her out of her powers temporarily. This is extremely dangerous in the boss fight where Sam has to fight without John. | |

Fast-Forward to Reunion | |
| Eastward (Video Game) / int_3371361d | comment |
Fast-Forward to Reunion: In the final moments of the story, when John and Sam defeat Mother, John holds Sam (who has merged with Mother) in a sea of water for a brief moment before she disappears. Mother asks Sam if she'll say goodbye, to which she replies that she doesn't need to, because she knows they'll meet each other again. Fast forward after the credits and we see Sam as a teenager/young woman waiting at a train stop. She bumps into John, who'd grown to be a middle-aged man and while she doesn't quite remember him, John is silently floored at having been reunited. | |

Boring, but Practical: John's trusty frying pan is far from being the most impressive weapon in the game, but 99% of times will get the job of protecting him and Sam done. Likewise Sam's first power, a small orb of energy that paralyzes most enemies, isn't much to look at, but it's invaluable to fight off some pesky enemies that John would have a hard time dealing with on his own. | |

You can find them later and they'll even try to sell you the glazy berry jam they made from it. | |

Bittersweet Ending: The heroes are ultimately able to stop Mother, and end the threat of Charon and the MIASMA for good, but at great cost. Sam merges with Mother to stop her and disappears. Isabel is unable to save Alva, and is shattered with grief. In the process of protecting Sam, Daniel's body is destroyed, ultimately reducing him to just a head. But both the human and robot Daniels are able to live happily with William, and somewhere far away, years later, Sam and John meet again. | |

Intergenerational Friendship: John is a man in his 40s, while Sam is a young girl who isn't quite a teenager yet. While their relationship has elements of John being a Parental Substitute for Sam, they're often shown as equal parts of a team and along most of the adventure, Sam takes the initiative in deciding what the next objective is. | |

The Stinger | |
| Eastward (Video Game) / int_48081842 | comment |
The Stinger: The post-credits scene shows that William not only managed to survive after John took the Iron Carbine to Charon, but he also reunited with his son Daniel, and has managed to partially rebuild the android Daniel as well. | |

Temporal Paradox | |
| Eastward (Video Game) / int_501de366 | comment |
Temporal Paradox: The group doesn't realize that the other train "chasing" the Iron Carbine is the Iron Carbine itself from the future, with Izzy's rocket attached to it on top. When the Future version collides with the Past version of the carbine it causes a paradox which sends them back in time repeatedly, until they figure out a way to outrun themselves. | |

The Dragon | |
| Eastward (Video Game) / int_53f5119f | comment |
The Dragon: Parodied and then played straight with Solomon. In New Dam City, Solomon seems like a random person, name dropping Charon and making ominous warnings but not actually being threatening, but his attempt to make good on them results in Alva being mortally wounded. The adult and elder Solomon in the next two areas are played more straight, but still somewhat comedically, having childish goals of supreme dominion of the world. Mother, for her part, doesn't discuss any role he'd have in her vision of the future. | |

Suspicious Video-Game Generosity: There are several points throughout the game where a vending machine is available to buy bomb and ammo refills from, as well as energy drinks, a fairly decent healing item. These are usually right before you have to fight a load of enemies or a miniboss. Areas before boss battles will usually also have a cooker and a fridge for you to make some meals and save your game beforehand. | |

Achievements in Ignorance | |
| Eastward (Video Game) / int_57b74bd4 | comment |
Achievements in Ignorance: In the first chapter of the game, when banished by Mayor Hoffman to board Charon, the sensor called "Charon's Throat" shines blue and then shuts down when Sam passes through it. And, when she and John board Charon, it turns out to be an ordinary train. It's not. And, when entered as the Very Definitely Final Dungeon, zombies can be found patrolling its labyrinthian depths, implying these are people who previously stepped aboard the hellish train. It's likely that, being the Mother, Sam saved John from boarding Charon in its true form and being lost to it in the same way. | |

The Un-Reveal | |
| Eastward (Video Game) / int_5a3b8032 | comment |
The Unreveal: It's teased from her reactions to Solomon that Isabel is somehow related to the Breeding Facility for the New Dam City area, mentioning at one point that she was "created to protect Alva", and this being related to Mother as well, but whatever said role is goes largely unexplained, as she "joins" Mother only to try to save Alva. | |

After finding out that she and Mother are one in the same, Sam is also crushed by the guilt of the lives Mother has destroyed, particularly her role in Alva's death. | |

Uva will be the only one to acknowledge it's all a dream; she asks him not to feel bad for what happened and expresses regret over how things ended before he's woken up by Sam. | |

Heroic Sacrifice: When Solomon surprises everyone at the train station with an attack, Daniel jumps in the way and takes the hit, getting his body destroyed by it. He gets better by the end, though. Sam merges with Mother in order to stop her from carrying out her plan, effectively giving up her life with John. A flash-forward shows her as an older girl who doesn't remember John, meaning she also gave up her memories of that life. | |

Permanently Missable Content | |
| Eastward (Video Game) / int_6602cad | comment |
Permanently Missable Content: You can't return to any previous areas, and there are some isntances where you can't return to certain places within those areas during your time there either. This means you'll be locked out of any chests you missed. You may also miss out on being able to buy certain items from shops, not helped by the fact that they cycle which items they have in stock. New Dam City in particular has one or two sidequests that reward you with Heart Orbs, which you miss out on if you haven't completed them by the time Chapter 3 ends. Speaking of Chapter 3, there are also 2 secret areas where you can get 2 new abilities for Sam, which can easily be missed. Chapter 7 also has a secret area where you can upgrade all of Sam's abilities. You have an option to change the book on the Mayor's desk that he will use for his speech when he banishes you from Potcrock Isle, you can replace it with a copy of the Earth Born manga or an adult magazine which he'll quote from during his speech. If you miss this and check the painting behind his desk first the scene will continue and you'll miss this extra content. | |

Guide Dang It! | |
| Eastward (Video Game) / int_6ec989d8 | comment |
Guide Dang It!: Despite having several chests, items, upgrades, and abilities that are permanently missable, it's not until the end of Chapter 2 that it becomes obvious that you won't be able to return to any previous areas to get them. The game doesn't always warn you when you're about to pass a point you won't be able to return from, nor does it warn you about when certain items will stop being available to buy in shops. If you're not using a guide, chances are you're going to miss at least one of these in your first playthrough. Thankfully, any collectibles that go towards achievements are carried over across save files, and a chapter select option was added in a patch, so you don't have to replay the entire game to complete everything. | |

Door to Before: The item you need is right by the entrance to the Old New Dam City area. Shame the door is locked and you have to walk the long way around to find it. Even worse, when you finally find it the door unlocks by itself with no further explanation. Inside the Dam, elevators will take you right back to the entrance of each area; gee it would have been convenient if those elevators had been available before. | |

Masculine–Feminine Gay Couple: Zig-Zagged regarding Alva and Isabel. In terms of personality, Alva fits the "feminine gay" role as the more bubbly and girly of the two, but she also enjoys tinkering with machinery and doesn't dress in a particularly feminine fashion. It's just that Isabel displays many more traits that are typically associated with tomboys in addition to being a field combatant. | |

Mechanical Abomination: Mayor Hoffman portrays the train Charon as being one, claiming it to be some harbinger of death. He's absolutely right. While it masquerades as a passenger train while John and Sam are riding it, it soon enough drops the act to reveal itself to be a many-legged, segmented rattletrap horror, with its paneling flapping at the point of nearly coming off, pouring MIASMA onto the world below as it rampages down the rails. To make matters worse, its interior is a Bigger on the Inside Eldritch Location inhabited by the mutated, animated corpses of the poor souls that came aboard it. | |

Timey-Wimey Ball | |
| Eastward (Video Game) / int_8d23f3a7 | comment |
Timey-Wimey Ball: The latter half of the game has a lot of things going on with time that are hard to make sense of. When John and Sam are travelling with William and Daniel on the Iron Carbine, they end up in a time loop due to being unable to move faster than what turns out to be their future selves, who are using Isabel's rocket to move faster in order to escape the loop. To get Isabel's rocket themselves, they end up on the Monkollywood train, which was visited by her a long time in the past from the monkey's perspective. Then, when the group finally reaches Ester City, they find themselves in another time loop (which only Sam and possibly John seem to be aware of), and breaking the time field that's causing it reveals that the city has long since been abandoned and overgrown), and somehow Isabel was able to visit it in its current state. On top of all that, we see three versions of Solomon who are implied to be the same person at different points in his life, and it's unclear if his funeral was a result of him faking his death, or happened after being killed by Mother and somehow sent back in time. | |

Laser-Guided Karma: Almost immediately after Mayor Hoffman banishes John and Sam from Potcrock Isle and forces them to board a train named Charon, the first floor of his home, which is located on Charon's train tracks, is completely destroyed when Charon comes charging through due to John having activated a secret switch in the Mayor's home prior. | |

Pyrrhic Victory: Chapter 4 in spades. Solomon manages to rob New Dam City of all its hopes: the Wind Shrine, the Princess and the Knight. Solomon manages to damage the Wind Shrine enough so it would have basically no hope of defending the city from the next MIASMA surge and Alva ends up mortally wounded by him which later forces Isabel to take her away from the city in a desperate attempt to save her. The city is basically at its lowest with only Lee keeping its people from giving up completely. | |

Timed Mission: In the Eternal Tower, there are rooms where you only have a certain amount of time to solve a puzzle and navigate the room in order to break the barrier that surrounds the device causing the time loop before it rewinds and you have to try again. There are hourglasses that can give you extra time, though. EarthBorn gives the player seven in-game days to gain enough levels before having to fight the Demon King. The second run requires having to gain enough experience and defeat the king's four generals before time is up. | |

Shout-Out | |
| Eastward (Video Game) / int_c75df49a | comment |
Shout-Out: When Mung hands you the subway pass he proclaims that "Whenever. Wherever. You and the subway are meant to be together." The Game Within a Game "Earth Born" plays a lot like the old school Dragon Quest games, even down to the generic "Knight must save Princess from Demon Lord" plot. For extra points, the knight on the cartridge cover is a Captain Ersatz of Loto/Roto from Dragon Quest III. At one point in the game you can visit Lowtown and find Margolari Pittore painting the people there. One of the inhabitants will claim to be reminded of that grand ocean liner years ago. In the Monkollywood train you can find cardboard cutouts of multiple franchises such as Godzilla fighting a Captain Ersatz version of Ultraman, as well as a Gundam suit. Over the course of Solomon's three boss fights, he give you keys representing wisdom, courage and... strength. The bullies Grandis, Sansey, and Hansey are named after the Terrible Trio of Nadia: The Secret of Blue Water. | |

Parasite Zombie | |
| Eastward (Video Game) / int_d3cd9952 | comment |
Parasite Zombie: A glowing creature seems to control the mindless infected humanoids in Old New Dam City, after enough damage is made to the host, their top half will explode and three glowing tentacles will appear only connected to the lower half of the host, then it becomes much more aggressive and fast. | |

| Eastward (Video Game) / int_d47d9b71 | comment |
Mirror Boss: Isabel. When fought she perform melee attacks, ranged attacks, in form of illusions, and even heavy strikes just like John. In a more literal sense you have to fight Isabel by reflecting her attacks. | |

Anti-Frustration Features | |
| Eastward (Video Game) / int_d6f284a3 | comment |
Anti-Frustration Features: You can buy an item that will help to detect any chests that are nearby, including hidden ones. This is available as early as the first area. If you missed anything in your first run of the game (and chances are, you will), finishing the game for the first time unlocks the option to revisit earlier chapters so you can go back and pick up anything you missed - which will still count towards achievements as it carries between save files - without having to replay the whole game. The game autosaves just about every time you enter a room, so if you choose to continue on the game over screen then you'll just reload at the room you died in rather than your last manual save. | |

Year Outside, Hour Inside | |
| Eastward (Video Game) / int_d75a1703 | comment |
Year Outside, Hour Inside: This is apparently what happens in the fog near Ester City. The monkeys of Monkollywood met Isabel many years ago, so much so that only the oldest one remembers her and the youngest ones only read about her in ancient documents. | |

Urban Segregation: New Dam City is somewhat dirty but still a nice enough place to live. The sewers however tell a different story. You can find other homeless people loitering around the city, some of them having lost all their money to Mr. Lee's Coin Palace. | |

Loot Boxes | |
| Eastward (Video Game) / int_e942f5ac | comment |
Loot Boxes: In-game mechanic. Literal gacha machines exist in the game. You need special tokens to use them however, not real money or even in-game money. You use tokens to obtain Amiibo-like figurines that grant you special items that will aid you in "Earth Born". Different machines have different figures available so you'll need to visit multiple ones to obtain all the available figures. | |

One-Steve Limit: Averted in two cases: When meeting Uva for the first time, she calls out John's name, but it's quickly shown that she was actually referring to a dog who is also called John. There's also the robots that run shops where you can upgrade your equipment, all called Johnny. William's son back in Potrock Isle is called Daniel, and he decided to name his android Daniel as well. | |
