Harvester is a graphical Point-and-Click Adventure Game with Full Motion Video elements, developed by Texas-based DigiFX Interactive, written and directed by Gilbert P. Austin, and released in October 1996.The only thing Steve knows about himself is that his name is Steve, and he's really just taking that on faith. Otherwise his memory has been gone ever since he woke up. He soon discovers that he is apparently a citizen of the Midwestern farming town called "Harvest", and that the year is 1953. Initially the neighborhood may appear to be a perfect Stepford Suburbia, but with even more things wrong than usual. Mom is baking (thousands of) cookies in preparation for a bake sale that's still a week away. Of course, they won't be good then, so she's shovelling them into the trash. Steve's baby sister lies screaming in her crib, neglected. Steve's brother, Hank, is immovable from in front of the television, where he watches a disturbingly gory and realistic show about cowboys killing Native Americans. There's not much of a plot or anything, just killing them over and over, with the "special effects" making it disturbingly real.Mom informs Steve that when the big day comes, the town's Lodge will have a big blood drive, and everyone has to give blood. Well, except for Lodge members. Steve should consider joining the Lodge. Steve decides to join the Lodge, if he makes it past the paper boy that is. See, times have been tough around Harvest since the newspaper building burned down, and a guy's gotta do what a guy's gotta do, right? Well, if there aren't any newspapers being made, then our lad has decided to pick them up. He'd really appreciate it if you could help him out, just leave a newspaper for him outside every day... or there might be some consequences.Upon visiting the Lodge, the Lodge's Sergeant at Arms informs Steve telepathically that the Lodge has standards Steve must meet in order to apply, and for today's task Steve must steal or otherwise acquire an application to the Lodge. Each day, Steve is given a successively worse task, and finds himself becoming more and more the villain in his own tale, but he can't stop... he has to join the Lodge before the blood drive. Everyone has to help with the blood drive, Steve.Harvester is a reaction to, and deconstruction of, the idea that video games promote violence, taking it to its furthest extreme in the idea that video games create serial killers. Unsurprisingly, it was considered one of the most disgusting games ever created. Because of the game's graphic nature, it was banned in Germany, heavily censored in the UK, and never released in Australia at all, as the distributor felt there would be no point as the game would just get banned anyway. In the US, the game received heavy attention from Moral Guardians and Media Watchdog types. Harvester set out to offend the hell out of anyone who took it seriously, while simultaneously using a quirky sense of humor for anyone else. The game's goal is both to make you laugh at certain points and be horrified at others, it's a rare person that Harvester cannot make squirm at some point.In 2014, the game's producer, Lee Jacobson, in collaboration with Nightdive Studios, released Harvester for PC and Linux on GOG.com on March 6, and on Steam on April 4. | |

The Sociopath | |
| Harvester (Video Game) / int_19851b86 | comment |
The Sociopath: Hank tells you that when he heard that Karin was missing, he went over to her mother's house and asked if she could play. He says that he wanted to see how long it would take her to stop crying, but went in to their house to watch TV once she didn't. Sensing her vulnerability, Hank asked her to fix him a peanut butter and jelly sandwich, and to cut the crusts off, but he ate the crusts anyway. He then says that while Karin's mother was in the bathroom with the water running, he went into her room to see if there was anything worth taking, but didn't take anything because all she had was "girl stuff." | |

I'm a Humanitarian: In the bad ending, it turns out Steve's now a cannibal, on top of being a serial killer. It's heavily implied that the butcher serves human meat. At one point in the lodge, you encounter three children eating their own mother, one scene having one of them biting off a good chunk of meat off her leg. | |

Only Sane Man: Steve and Stephanie. Averted with Steve if you choose the bad ending. If we only speak of the people in town, Edna is more down on Earth than anyone else, and her daughter Karin could count as the only sane child. Marv, Steve's dad, isn't that insane either, just deeply traumatized from all the sexual abuse he has endured from his wife. | |

Broken Aesop | |
| Harvester (Video Game) / int_401d4116 | comment |
Broken Aesop: Averted. The game’s Aesop might seem to be that exposure to violent media can lead people to become violent themselves, but he actually thinks the opposite - that any and all censorship is bad, so that isn't the true message of the game. On the other hand, if the author is trying to say that censorship is bad and that video games causing violence is a myth, the Bad Ending's proud display of Author Tract from the mouth of a serial killer might also break that aesop. Unless that's intended to be absurd... it's Harvester, let's just say the message is unclear. | |

Downer Ending | |
| Harvester (Video Game) / int_4e3d253b | comment |
Downer Ending: Both endings. Either Steve and Stephanie get married in the dream but die in reality, or Steve kills Stephanie and make it out, as a full-fledged serial killer. The former at least has some qualities of a Bittersweet Ending, considering that Steve and Stephanie live long enough to have a normal virtual life, but at the same time, there's no indication that Steve could have stopped the Harvesters. | |

The Coroner Doth Protest Too Much: Played to the point of parody. Upon seeing what appears to be Stephanie's removed spine, her mother thinks it could've been a suicide. The sheriff points out that he never heard of anyone ripping their own spine out... only to say she died of natural causes, because "You can't live without a spine. There's nothing more natural than that." | |

Author Tract | |
| Harvester (Video Game) / int_4eaa9b84 | comment |
On the other hand, if the author is trying to say that censorship is bad and that video games causing violence is a myth, the Bad Ending's proud display of Author Tract from the mouth of a serial killer might also break that aesop. Unless that's intended to be absurd... it's Harvester, let's just say the message is unclear. | |

But Thou Must!: You will join the Lodge, whether you like it or not. Oh, and you will commit crime after crime, all because some guy in front of a door keeps telling you to. Failure to do so ends in the Lodge coming for your blood in the "blood drive." Even if you get and do everything you need to become a Lodge member, but go home instead of to the Lodge on the final day, Steve is forced to donate blood. | |

Improbable Infant Survival | |
| Harvester (Video Game) / int_550754dc | comment |
Improbable Infant Survival: Steve's brother, Hank, cannot be killed no matter what. Subverted with Karin; killing her, though, collapses the plot and gives you an instant Game Over. You can also kill Jimmy the paper boy... if he doesn't kill you first. However, at the very beginning Steve's mother says that even Hank would have to donate blood for the Annual Blood Drive, so it's safe to say that this trope does get subverted off-screen for Steve's little brother in at least one of Game Overs. Steve's baby sister, while she can't be killed, eats a spider and... other things happen... The dog at the fire house can't be killed. Ironically, neither can the cats at the meat plant, despite a clearly mutilated cat in plain sight and it being very obvious that Pat butchers cats. | |

Moon Logic Puzzle | |
| Harvester (Video Game) / int_558ae6f6 | comment |
Moon Logic Puzzle: Deliberately invoked with the Temple of the Mystery of Religion (which is also a Take That! at fundamentalism,) where Steve has to answer multiple choice questions about God to prove that he's a true believer and not a heathen. They start out simple enough ("Does God exist?", "Where does God dwell?") and then quickly get more and more ridiculous ("Does God bounce on a spring, or frolic with the wombats?") to the point that it's impossible to get the right answers without just guessing. Fortunately, Steve doesn't have to pass the test; he can always just kill everyone in the room. | |

Found during a Let's Play that was experimenting with curse words in the text parser. It turns out, asking Steve's mother to "FUCK" will cause her to seriously consider the offer.

Chainsaw Good: Subverted. You can pick up a chainsaw (after killing its former owner, a birthday clown), and it is one of the most powerful melee weapons in the game. However, it has limited fuel, burns through its ammo supply quickly, and by the time you get it, you’ll probably have much more reliable weapons on hand. | |

Gameplay and Story Segregation: Killing Stephanie during regular gameplay does not affect the game any differently then when you kill a normal Harvest resident. What makes this weird is that the Sergeant of Arms tells Steve that retrieving her spinal cord is the final task to getting released from the virtual world of Harvest and wake up as a serial killer, since Stephanie is a real person just like him. It's understandable why the developers didn't do anything different with her since it would have ruined the plot, but still... | |

Knight of Cerebus | |
| Harvester (Video Game) / int_6a47a1e2 | comment |
Knight of Cerebus: The Sergeant-At-Arms. While Harvester is consistently a dark game, before visiting the lodge, most of this darkness is centered around how "off" the residents of the town of Harvest are. Once the Sergeant-At-Arms starts assigning tasks, though, the game gets even darker and characters begin to get killed off. Of course, there is still plenty of black comedy, but the overall tone of the game still becomes much more sinister. | |

Tin-Can Robot: Hank's Robby the Robot figure looks like a can. Near the end of the game, there's a human-sized Robby that makes beeping noises and tries to zap Steve to death. Fitting, considering the game takes places in the '50s. | |

Gainax Ending: The Lodge itself is absolutely nothing like the rest of the game, shifting from one unrelated environment to another.

Stepford Smiler: Both Steve’s Mom and Mrs. Pottsdam. In fact, your mother, Stephanie's mother, and every other mother in the game are all played by the same actress, as though they had been mass produced. Your mother is inexplicably present when Steve is being executed during the aforementioned Nonstandard Game Over, smiling and looking as pleasant as always. She's also secretly a ludicrously violent S&M dom who locks your father in their room and performs horrific sex acts on him. Catching her in the act is enough to make her kill you. | |

Moral Guardians | |
| Harvester (Video Game) / int_96e5792c | comment |
Moral Guardians: The game was deliberately made to offend these types - though this is part of the point of the game. When it was released, one angry guardian claimed that one particular scene, involving the decapitation of an infant, was so horrifying that she literally could not believe it wasn't real, thinking that they actually killed a baby. In the game itself, this is subverted - a lot of the adult characters try to act as moral compasses for many others - but their own insane perversions of morality end up bringing about suffering to those that they look out for. An example that is played straight appears in the bad ending. Steve's mother sees him playing a violent video game and worries that he could become a serial killer. Steve dismisses her claims as "bullshit"... Only because he'd already been conditioned to become a Serial Killer at that point. | |

And moving beyond the simulator, the Harvesters themselves, implied to be a cabal of mad scientists experimenting with turning average human beings into serial killers via the Harvester simulator. | |

Foreshadowing: In the transition between days, Steve dreams of a man's eyes coming out of their sockets. Turns out it's a bonus cutscene for a specific weapon kill on a specific character. The Annual Blood Drive, aka blood donation, is mentioned several times throughout the game, and Steve just assumes they mean giving blood through a needle, as it's usually done. When he says this to his mother, she says that they don't use needles. Damn right they don't; they decapitate the donor. | |

Real Men Eat Meat: Mr. Pottsdam subscribes to this philosophy. The only reason he’s marrying Stephanie off is so he can get a job with Steve’s dad’s meat plant. When that falls through, he offers Stephanie as a means of joining the Lodge, and tries to kill Steve. In a freezer. Full of meat. There seems to be a pattern here… | |

During the infamous "baby scene", when the baby's suddenly pop out of their sockets, the mother acts like it's just a minor nuisance and just pushes the eyes back in and is like "that's better" even though one of the eyes seemingly ruptured when being pushed back in, and when we see the baby with it's eyes "fixed" there is still blood gushing out the sides. | |

Mood Whiplash: Conversations with NPCs can go this way when they're talking about the various things Steve has done around town. Try going most of the game without talking to an NPC, then talk to them and see how many times they change moods at the drop of a hat while they're discussing current events. May qualify as Fridge Brilliance, because with the possible exception of the Sergeant at Arms, they're all imperfect computer simulations and not real people. | |

Town with a Dark Secret: The town of Harvest. It is clear from the get-go that Harvest is not a nice place to live, and nobody even tries to hide that. Despite this, it does contain a Dark Secret like you would not believe. The town of Harvest does not exist. It is just a virtual reality program that Steve and Stephanie were hooked up to. The entire program is a murder simulator and it is supposed to slowly and surely turn Steve into a Serial Killer. He can get out of the program if he murders Stephanie and makes her Killed Off for Real. | |

Take That! | |
| Harvester (Video Game) / int_b53077b3 | comment |
Take That!: Both endings are a huge one toward a particularly popular assumption that was growing in the media (specifically, that video games are leading to real-world violence). The Good Ending has the antagonists lamenting that since the simulation ends in failure, they'll just have to go to the old fashioned way of creating serial killers by way of genetics, effectively criticizing the argument itself by means of referring to something that actually has scientific support instead of something based largely on circumstantial evidence. In the bad ending, where Steve's mother sees him playing a video game and tells him that it's going to make him violent, Steve simply responds with a succinct "That's bullshit, mom." | |

Show Within a Show: Hank is watching a cowboy show that stars Range Ryder and has plenty of Indians dying in very graphic manners. The Lodge has mentions of two particularly odd works, a light holiday children's classic MonkeyBoy Goes Apeshit with a Chainsaw and the Lodge Rep's musical hit Mr. Smith's Trip to Turkey. | |

Shout-Out | |

Shout-Out: Gein Memorial is possibly named after Serial Killer and grave robber Ed Gein. Steve's mom namedrops Nancy Drew and says "A boy's best friend is his mother" when he shows her the ledgers he stole from Moynahan. One of the tombstones in the graveyard is for one 'Robba Williams, likely a reference to Sierra co-founder Roberta Williams. The inscription on it even says "May your fantasies be forever gory." | |

Developer's Foresight | |

Developer's Foresight: Characters have unique dialogue based on how the player progresses through the game. Nearly everyone has some sort of comment based on how the plot unfolds. Similarly, there are many items throughout the game (such as the pornographic photo of Miss Whaley and Principal Herrill); despite being minor plot devices to advance through quests, everyone in town will have unique reactions to them if you show them around, even though the game never tells you to try that. | |

Painted-On Pants | |
| Harvester (Video Game) / int_d7ee7a25 | comment |
Painted-On Pants: When seen in the Lodge, Mr. Pottsdam. It's very clear the "pants" he's wearing in the scene were added digitally in post, which begs the question of what he was wearing (if anything at all) in the original take. If you look closely at his in-game sprite during that part when he walks, his legs are a slightly different color than the rest of his pants. This probably indicates that he was wearing underwear, and they edited it in post-production, for some reason. | |

Unusually Uninteresting Sight: Steve can walk around holding a weapon in plain sight (including a gun and a bloody baseball bat) and nobody seems to care. During the infamous "baby scene", when the baby's suddenly pop out of their sockets, the mother acts like it's just a minor nuisance and just pushes the eyes back in and is like "that's better" even though one of the eyes seemingly ruptured when being pushed back in, and when we see the baby with it's eyes "fixed" there is still blood gushing out the sides. | |

Cruelty Is the Only Option: The game practically runs on this. The quests Steve is given by the Lodge's Sergeant at Arms always involve him having to commit some sort of crime and/or an act that will seriously screw at least one other character over. | |

Video Game Cruelty Punishment | |

Video Game Cruelty Punishment: If you kill anyone prior to entering the Lodge, Steve is arrested and executed immediately. There's actually a random element to this. Certain characters not essential to the plot can be killed, and whether or not Steve gets away with it seems to be random chance. Namely, there seems to be some percentage chance that killing the mortician will go unpunished. There's also a way to blackmail the sheriff, which results in a "Get Out of Jail Free" Card, which allows you to get away with killing a single NPC who isn't essential to the plot. | |
