Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })Kinder is a 2003 Horror RPG made by Parun for the RPG Maker 2003. Eventually, Parun created a remake called Re:Kinder for the RPG Maker VX, which retains the plot, but with minor alterations.One day, Shunsuke Takano leaves his hometown to visit his grandparents. Upon returning, he finds the place completely barren and ruined, and nobody seems to be around. Fortunately, some of his friends have managed to take shelter in their secret base.As Shunsuke and his friends try to contact someone, they encounter Yuuichi Mizuoka, a second grader. He reveals himself to be the cause of the town's transformation and invites them all to play the 'Friends Game' with him. If they manage to avoid the traps set in town and defeat the three Mistresses, they win. It is up to Shunsuke to help protect his friends and get them all out alive... and hopefully figure out just why Yuuichi is doing all this.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); })The English translation for Re:Kinder can be found here.

The Artifact: As most RPG Maker games. The player has money, but it served no purpose. The children all have Levels, but gain no Experience Points. Yuuichi is the only character to have filled Willpower, but it's pointless, since the player can't use him in a battle, and all the other children's abilities have a Willpower cost of zero.

Multiple Endings: Killer End: Just like the original False End, except it adds a scene where Shunsuke sees Yuuichi in front of his house and kills him. Ni-Chome Mama End: Replaces the Everyone Dies Ending, but the condition of Shunsuke being the only survivor stands. Before Shunsuke commits suicide, the Archangel Takumiel intervenes and helps him escape, promising to give him success in the nightlife later on. Years later, it's revealed that Shunsuke now owns and runs a bar in Ni-chome note An area in Tokyo that houses the most numerous gay bars in the world.

Breaking the Fourth Wall
 Kinder (Video Game) / int_1e7487cd
comment
Breaking the Fourth Wall Re:Kinder contains multiple instances. At one point, Shunsuke gives directions as going to 'the player's left'. Obtaining the Killer Ending in Re:Kinder has a post-message by Mami, who talks about being a stand-in for the author, and explaining how to obtain each ending. She even mentions the altered Everyone Dies Ending being different from Kinder, unless you are 'some English-speaking foreigner' and you don't know what she's talking about. And she even lampshades that she and Takumi cannot be saved.

"Could Have Avoided This!" Plot
 Kinder (Video Game) / int_44989f6f
comment
"Could Have Avoided This!" Plot: Humorously subverted. There's a road by the bus stop that leads out of town. Trying to leave causes a 'strange power' to prevent the player from having Shunsuke leave. Picking the option to 'ignore the plot and force your way out of town' results in the author blowing up the town.

Homoerotic Subtext When Shunsuke confronts him as to why he thinks his plan is at all decent an idea, Yuuichi laments that maybe in another world, Yuuichi would be a trapped princess, and Shunsuke could be the prince that saves him. In Japan, these comparisons, when made between two characters of the same gender, tend to be symbolic of a romantic interest.

Guide Dang It!
 Kinder (Video Game) / int_6ec989d8
comment
Guide Dang It!: The elevator door-opening password puzzle. Simple enough, if one realizes that 'to look down' means looking at the keyboard, and seeing the symbols, which referred to letters to mean certain numbers. Unfortunately, this only works on American keyboards, as other regional keyboards put the symbols in completely different places. Obtaining the Eternal Force Blizzard. Just before entering Yuuichi's house for the final boss battle, the town has three tin boxes that the player can pick up. Nothing says they are available at that point, the only indication that something may be there is a bear inside of Mami's house, which the player has no reason to even approach. And one of the boxes is in a location that it should have been visible in earlier, but it doesn't appear until the Yuuichi in the Storybook World is defeated. The only upside is that the game tells the player to make sure to check the description, to know its use.

There Are No Therapists: Enforced. The game deconstructs it through the concept of a world without therapy. Multiple people are affected by 'mind illness', but nobody believes that and insists that the 'mind cannot get sick'. The plot could have been avoided, if therapists did exist in this world.

Press X to Die: Choose to jump off the bed in the secret base. Choose to ignore the plot and escape the town before the bus ride. The aptly-named Suicide Bed in the Storybook World gives the player the choice to have Shunsuke sleep for eternity. Hilariously enough, the translator accidentally switched the Yes and No on its dialogue prompt.

Cellphones Are Useless: Rei is introduced by trying to call for help on her cellphone. Of course, she gets no signal. Subverted with Yuuichi, who sends a text to Rei and Shunsuke when they're exploring the empty lot with the pipes, telling them about how Aya wandered off, and the time limit they have to find their disappeared comrade. He sends another one, if the player doesn't manage to find Aya in time.

Developer's Foresight: Dialogue changes to reflect which friend the player has chosen to come along at certain points. And all boss fights can be won regardless of a character being alive or having died (with the exception of the Final Boss, who can only be fought if every party member is alive). For one boss battle, Shunsuke gains an ability that compensates for the death of a party member.
