Illbleed is a 2001 tongue-in-cheek Survival Horror game developed by Crazy Games and published by Amusement Interface Associate for the Dreamcast that parodies American horror B-movies. It follows a group of horror movie aficionados (borderline Emotionless Girl Eriko Christy, wannabe psychic Michel Waters, average Joe Kevin Kertsman, and dim-witted Boisterous Bruiser and slasher-movie fan Randy Fairbanks) who receive guest passes to Illbleed, a horror amusement park built by reclusive movie director Michael Reynolds, who has filled his park with six terrifying attractions based on his movies, and promised to give one hundred million dollars to anyone who makes it through all six attractions without chickening out. Kevin, Michel, and Randy are gung-ho, but Eriko smells Hype Backlash in the making and opts out... until her friends fail to come back from their trip to Illbleed, and she's forced to investigate...Players control Eriko as she travels through the six attractions trying to rescue her friends, facing foes ranging from the horrifying (like the vengeful, flamethrower-toting Gale Banballow in "Homerun of Death") to the ridiculous (the "Cake from Hell" in "Killer Department Store"). Each of the six stages is laden with traps that can harm Eriko, release monsters, or will just attempt to scare her to death. Fortunately, you have a special "horror monitor" that allows you to detect and tag traps (though use of the horror monitor is limited by your character's "adrenaline" level). | |

| Illbleed (Video Game) / int_15184afb | comment |
This Loser Is You: The game's reasoning for listing the player as a suspect in "Killerman" is that anybody who actually purchased Illbleed can't be right in the head. | |

| Illbleed (Video Game) / int_15264ac9 | comment |
Unexpectedly Realistic Gameplay: Twice in the game, the player character comes across a boss that's literally invulnerable, then remembers that he or she is in a theme park, defeating them by going into the control room and disabling them from there. | |

Shows Damage | |
| Illbleed (Video Game) / int_15aed120 | comment |
Shows Damage: Should your health run low - at 30% of their maximum, your character will clutch at their shoulder when moving, occasionally gasping or groaning. Once it becomes critically low at 10% of their maximum, they'll also begin to limp as they now clutch at their torso. Both poses slow your character down. When idle at critically low stamina, the character's animation shows them acting paranoid compared to just looking around. (Eriko and Michel clutch at their heads like they're panicking whilst Kevin, Randy and Jorg will bring their guard up as if ready to strike at an unknown threat.) | |

All There in the Manual: Other than Eriko (who is actually given a bit more backstory in the manual), the backstories of the other characters aren't explored in the game at all. The manual also explains the origin of Dummyman and some of the enemies in the game, along with adding a bit more backstory to the attractions in the game (With the exception of Reynold's Museum). | |

Multiple Endings: Good Ending: Eriko and her friends go on vacation to a tropical island but she decides to go back to tie up some loose ends. Bad Ending: Eriko wins the $100 million Illbleed challenge but lives the rest of her life in regret for losing all of her friends. True Ending: Eriko defeats the owner of Illbleed, Michael Reynolds. However, the event brings her fear back to traumatic levels, leaving Kevin to look after her. | |

Violation of Common Sense | |
| Illbleed (Video Game) / int_1b2b1d2c | comment |
Violation of Common Sense: In "Woodpuppets", after proceeding through the level and finding out the titular puppets are made by processing humans (alive or dead), the player eventually finds the machine that makes them. A video from the mill's master explicitly warns his "wood-cutting slaves" that if you slip into the machine, you'll be turned into a puppet. While common sense would dictate you'd look for a way around it, the required course of action is to throw yourself into the machine and become a puppet, which lets you proceed through the level. | |

Breaking the Fourth Wall | |
| Illbleed (Video Game) / int_1e7487cd | comment |
Breaking the Fourth Wall: The wall between the characters and the attractions themselves is broken once every level. You beat one of the (animatronic) bosses by killing its operator (who may or may not be animatronic himself). In another level, you enter the boss arena only to meet a pair of maintenance workers who are repairing it. Also, there's an entire level based around the murders of several park employees, ostensibly by the villain of that level's attraction. The player is a potential suspect, and the game suggests that your "abnormality," as evidenced by purchasing Illbleed, is what drove you to commit the murder. | |

| Illbleed (Video Game) / int_1eb49c19 | comment |
Stripperiffic: On a second playthrough, do not save any of Eriko's friends. As Eriko advances through each stage, she loses progressively more clothing with each one. By the time she hits the "true" final stage, she's dressed in bandages, bloodstains, and extremely tattered undergarments. It's related to the plot, disturbingly enough - the game's announcer is so turned on by her that he jumps down and starts the final battle. Which is made a lot worse when it's revealed that he's her father. And then there's Sexy Doll in "Toy Hunter", who is clad in a tiny bikini and has a major case of camel toe on top of it all. | |

Punch-Clock Villain | |
| Illbleed (Video Game) / int_20860a0e | comment |
Punch-Clock Villain: The crewmen controlling the park are (or at least act like) basically normal human beings; some of them can be found talking about what to have for dinner or chatting with their girlfriends over the phone while operating the park's machinery. The hub world has several enemies who try to kill you in the attractions tending to shops. A faceless woman runs the Visitor's bank, while Dummyman mans the photo booth and his many minions staff the hospital. The hospital dummies will even help you during the attractions. Bloody Mary is the odd one out, as she never appears as an enemy ("Cutie" Mary, however, serves a miniboss in stage 4). | |

Crapsack World | |
| Illbleed (Video Game) / int_21d70919 | comment |
Crapsack World: So we're talking about some crazy horror movie director who makes an entire theme park dedicated to basically killing people. How does he not get put in jail? Furthermore, events later in the game seem to point towards the fact no one is at all against the concept of the theme park, let alone the number of people who die there. According to Jorg, "more than a hundred visitors die in this park every day," as well as Illbleed's "morgue" in the Killerman level which appears to be one giant pit the size of a warehouse filled with what appears to be rotting bodies. It's said in-game that there's around 50,000 dead bodies in there. In addition, you can bring people back to life by paying $75,000 for a surgical operation to restore them to life, good as new. Not paying to bring the people back to life shows just how much they care. | |

Panacea: "Amazon" fully restores all the meters of your current character, but you can only ever find one per stage (with the odd exception of "Killerman", that has two despite being one of the easier chapters). | |

Stupidity Is the Only Option: In "Woodpuppets", you encounter the area where people are turned into the eponymous creatures, and reach a point where you're standing right on the machine that does it. The owner of the mill even warns his "wood-cutting slaves" in the area that they need to be careful, otherwise they'll fall into it and become woodpuppets. You have to jump into it and become a Woodpuppet to progress in the level. | |

Bittersweet Ending | |
| Illbleed (Video Game) / int_40cc0c7e | comment |
Bittersweet Ending: In the second playthrough of the game, Eriko mentions at the endgame that, because of her upbringing from her father Michael Reynolds, she had lost her sense of fear and has spent most of her life trying to get that back. After her dad finally manages to scare her, he ends up dying. Eriko says that he may have finally scared her, but he lost himself in the process. The end credits even change from the bombastic "Time to get Ill" theme to a more somber version of the main menu theme to the game. The post-credits scene also reveals that the final confrontation with Michael deeply traumatized Eriko to the point where she's become reliant on Kevin for emotional support, even relinquishing her position as head of the horror club to him. | |

Body Horror: The Inside-Out Men enemies are, well, inside-out. The Faceless Women enemies are missing their faces. The boss of the first level seems more mutated than burnt, with a permanent snarl, dangling eyeball, and a bulging, exposed brain. Randy has his brain removed, and the player can have it put back in. The Wood Puppets machine subjects people to brutal mutilations in order to turn them into, well, Wood Puppets. Character upgrades take the forms of various organs floating in jars. | |

Amusement Park of Doom | |
| Illbleed (Video Game) / int_660d1f3e | comment |
Amusement Park of Doom: Illbleed is so dangerous that, if Jorg is to be believed, over a hundred visitors die there every day. Unlike most examples, the park is pretty upfront about it and (according to the manual's description of the Visitor's Bank) allows contestants to opt out between attractions. But the lure of a cash prize is enough for folks to attempt to get through it anyway. | |

Guide Dang It! | |
| Illbleed (Video Game) / int_6ec989d8 | comment |
Guide Dang It!: "Homerun of Death" starts off in a small area enclosed by a brick wall, where the only way out is via a dilapidated gate that has a trap you must get hit by to proceed. The seemingly-featureless brick wall has some traps of its own, but most players' first instinct is to immediately go through the gate into the Hotel's front yard. The Horror Monitor can be used to "disarm" enemy encounters, by tagging the spot near where said encounters are triggered; you'll still have to fight the enemies, but it's not treated as a shock trap so you won't get knocked down nor gain pulse. However, the Monitor's tutorial in-game doesn't really explain this. The in-game tutorial for how to use the Horror Monitor is found in the the cemetery hidden off to the side of the central hub's clinic. What isn't obvious at all even from the hints provided is that you can find an (expensive) adrenaline hypo in here for free, which is a huge help since you start with very little money and can't afford to get one of those and enough of the stamina, pulse and bleeding remedies you'll also undoubtedly need to tackle the first stage. | |

Plotline Death | |
| Illbleed (Video Game) / int_71bd555a | comment |
Plotline Death: Failing to rescue Eriko's friends (as opposed to getting killed while playing as them) is treated this way. Uniquely, they can still be brought back to life if this happens, but it requires a trip to the Visitor Bank and carries a steep price tag compared to reviving them at an E.R. station. In other words, Death is Cheap in Illbleed, but it's not necessarily affordable. | |

Creator's Culture Carryover: On top of the Japanese love of Personality Blood Types, the store prices in the "Killer Department Store" level look like they simply swapped out the yen figures for dollars, leading to the sight of burgers that cost $2,000. (Even then, $20 for a burger is highway robbery by American standards... still unheard of in Japan, but slightly less ridiculous). | |

Too Awesome to Use: Averted - your inventory is emptied at the end of every level, so you have no reason to sit on your items. As for individual items, the Caution Bomb (marks every possible trap location in a 45-foot radius) tends to go unused just because there aren't many "perfect" spots to deploy one and get the most use out of it. | |

Life Meter: Three of them: in addition to the traditional health gauge, you also have a bleeding gauge and a heart rate monitor. If the bleeding gauge becomes full, you will bleed to death. If your heart rate exceeds 250, you will die of a fear-induced heart attack. If your heart rate reaches 0, you will flatline. | |

The latter is explained that playing Illbleed drove you insane and made you go on a killing spree. | |

Power-Up Letdown: The "Gaboie" item replenishes a lot of stamina when used, but also causes your pulse to spike very high. Seeing how heart rate is each character's biggest Achilles' Heel (every harmful thing in the game causes it to rise), you're better off letting them go unconsumed. It is, however, useful if you've been bleeding too much and your heart rate has gone dangerously low. | |

Sanity Meter: Your adrenaline meter, in a few ways. It's used to work the Horror Monitor, which marks traps and items. It's refilled by defusing traps and killing monsters; basically, proving to yourself that the frightening things can be overcome restores your will to go on. Notably, it's the only character meter that doesn't cause your death when you run out (or when it gets completely filled), but being out of Adrenaline means you cannot tag traps anymore. | |

Fright Deathtrap: All the levels are positively covered in traps. They are not immediately fatal with each one varying in how scary it is, but running into too many in a row will cause your character to die of a heart attack. To prevent their layout from being too predictable, each trap is not guaranteed to be active/inactive during a run of a level. | |

Mind Screw: Remember how strange and confusing Panic! was? Well, Illbleed makes it look as clear and sensible as the "DO NOT EAT" directions on a silica packet. No kidding, this game technically qualifies as Dada art. The "Killerman" stage and the final "boss" of stage 1, as far as in-game examples go. Did you really go backstage, stop a possessed Killerman costume and tangle with real zombies, or was it All Part of the Show? Were you meant to find Banballow's operator and kill him? If not, why did you need his ID card to open the Goal pathway, and why was there a metal spring jutting out from his severed neck? | |

Offscreen Teleportation | |
| Illbleed (Video Game) / int_c691d3f4 | comment |
Offscreen Teleportation: In true horror movie style, any enemies pursuing you in a level segment will pull this off so they can pop out and ambush you from around corners. It's especially obvious with Mr. Banballow, who can round a corner to your left, suddenly start coming around the right corner when you try to run away, and then be back to closing in from the left again once you turn back around. | |

Shout-Out | |
| Illbleed (Video Game) / int_c75df49a | comment |
Shout-Out: Cork from "Toy Hunter" looks like a cross between Woody from Toy Story and Indiana Jones, with William Riker's beard thrown in for good measure. His robotic companion, Potedon, also has the same markings and color scheme as Buzz Lightyear's chest, buttons and all. Also, the boss of the next-to-last level is a demonic Sonic the Hedgehog, complete with rings. Sometimes he'll even do Sonic's old "uh-uh-uh" finger waggle. "The Revenge of Queen Worm" seems to be a big shout out to Tremors, due to worms being able to detect you if you're on dirt. Killerman is a violent riff on Pepsiman, the old Japanese mascot for Pepsi Cola. The physical appearance of Michael Reynolds is based on Alien Zetton from Ultraman. The description for the axe weapon mentions that it used to belong to someone named Jason. The Hassy Cola item, as well as one of the potential enemies in the final boss fight, are both from the developer's previous project, Blue Stinger. | |

| Illbleed (Video Game) / int_ca3a6dbd | comment |
Informed Ability: Eriko is said to have no sense of fear, but that just means she isn't disabled by monster ambushes; she can die of fright from traps just as easily as any other playable character. Jorg is supposed to be an ace reporter and sleuth, even though players will likely be poking holes in his Bat Deduction the entire time he's trying to unravel the mystery at hand (e.g. Former gymnast or not, no regular human can leap 60 feet in the air, dude). | |

Critical Annoyance: Downplayed. When your pulse reaches very high or low levels (above 175bpm and below 25bpm respectively), your pulse meter will flash "DANGER". Your characters also start gasping or groaning when their stamina falls below 30% of their maximum. | |

All Part of the Show | |
| Illbleed (Video Game) / int_cf511248 | comment |
The "Killerman" stage and the final "boss" of stage 1, as far as in-game examples go. Did you really go backstage, stop a possessed Killerman costume and tangle with real zombies, or was it All Part of the Show? Were you meant to find Banballow's operator and kill him? If not, why did you need his ID card to open the Goal pathway, and why was there a metal spring jutting out from his severed neck? | |

Anti-Frustration Features | |

Anti-Frustration Features: A short line traces itself behind your character's icon on the map screen showing the direction you're currently moving in, helping you quickly figure out where you're supposed go in relation to which way you're headed. Pretty helpful in some of the maze-like sections that would otherwise be very easy to get stuck in. | |

Set a Mook to Kill a Mook | |
| Illbleed (Video Game) / int_e1645c04 | comment |
Set a Mook to Kill a Mook: Dangerous as they are, the denizens of Illbleed aren't exactly the brightest bulbs on the tree, and pose nearly as much a threat to themselves as they do to you. The lone exception to this are the Killer Worms, which becomes very frustrating when you're forced to fight three of them simultaneously in Stage 4. | |

The Ditz | |
| Illbleed (Video Game) / int_e2d457 | comment |
The Ditz: Randy; it's made even worse if you fail to find his brain before turning him back from being a woodpuppet. Could classify as Body Horror, but adds as a gameplay bonus. He's got fewer points to deactivate traps, making him ideal for a Self-Imposed Challenge. His dialog is also turned into hilarious gibberish. | |

Clothing Damage: If, during a New Game Plus, you fail to save an unlockable character, Eriko's clothing gets damaged. If you don't save any of them, she winds up completely naked, which is in fact necessary in order to get the True Ending. | |

| Illbleed (Video Game) / int_e6630c8b | comment |
Gameplay and Story Integration: Eriko's "fearlessness" translates into her being the only character to recover immediately upon knockdown, while all other characters need a Shock Bracer to do that. She doesn't recover immediately at the start of the Final Boss fight, a sign that she's gotten her fear back. The traps in "Killer Department Store" all steal your money. The boss of the area, Cashman, is stated to have lured people in, killed, and subsequently robbed them. | |

| Illbleed (Video Game) / int_e83f211c | comment |
O.O.C. Is Serious Business: Eriko's lack of any sense of fear translates in gameplay to her instantly recovering when ambushed by a monster whereas all her friends will helplessly crawl along the ground for varying lengths of time before standing back up to fight. When she first sees the true final boss, she is knocked down and stays down for longer than any other character, indicating that for the first time in years, she's utterly terrified of what she's seeing. | |

Engrish: It's all over the place, really, from poorly constructed phrases to grammatically mangled signs, like the "Smart Grass" in the Mary Goods section of Killer Department Store. The fact of the matter is that Crazy Games' grasp of the English language was always pretty tenuous, and the localization didn't really help much. In the "Revenge of the Queen Worm" stage, there are billboard advertisements for fake movies. Most of their taglines are in poorly-written English, including such gems as "GODLLA: Size is problem." | |

Everything Trying to Kill You: Everything. If it's in the level, it can probably come to life and menace you. The Killer Department Store is particularly terrible about this, as about half of the stuff that can kill you can steal your money as well (of which you need plenty to progress in this level). | |
