comment |
Klaus is a 2016 video game created by La Cosa Entertainment for the PS4, described as an existential platformer. You guide Klaus, an amnesiac who’s awoken alone in a red basement, in his attempt to find out what's going on and how to get out of the facility. Along the way Klaus slowly starts to piece together who he is through memories that are hidden throughout the levels. He is later joined by K1, and between the two playable characters you must solve puzzles using their individual abilities.Not to be confused with the comic book by Grant Morrison, which reimagines the origin story of Santa Claus. |

comment |
After the End: Klaus Sr's several comments that there's nothing outside of the facility, as well as the tumultuous storms assaulting the skyline imply something happened out there. Klaus in the regular ending says "Look at all these ruins. Is this what's become of society?" The other skyscrapers seen outside the blue level windows occasionally have pockmarks in them, reminiscent of an air raid. |

There are multiple references to music: Kraftwerk notably gets two, in The Vents and later in a memory. When Klaus tries to teach K1 to say his name, K1, Obfuscating Stupidity, says 'Kraft' instead. In the memory, Klaus passes by a scene of him recreating the infamous The Man Machine album art. |

Shout-Out |
| | Klaus (La Cosa Entertainment) (Video Game) / int_c75df49a |
comment |
Shout-Out: Klaus' knowledge of pop culture and Leaning on the Fourth Wall tendencies result in quite a few. There are multiple references to music: Kraftwerk notably gets two, in The Vents and later in a memory. When Klaus tries to teach K1 to say his name, K1, Obfuscating Stupidity, says 'Kraft' instead. In the memory, Klaus passes by a scene of him recreating the infamous The Man Machine album art. Klaus also sings MGMT's Electric Feel during the purple levels. One of the chapter cards in the true ending reads Robot After All, a reference to Daft Punk's Human After All. KLAUS also references a lot of other video games. After the sound of the lady crying was revealed to be a tape on loop, Klaus says "The girl is a lie!", a reference to Portal's The Cake Is a Lie. Shortly after, upon seeing K1’s silhouette, he says “That shadow was Colossus!” referencing Shadow of the Colossus. In the last level before the K1 boss fight, the layout looks strikingly similar to the Donkey Kong platforms and ladders. Klaus, upon getting used to K1’s company, quips “sure you’re Ken?” referring to Street Fighter. The chapter card for one of the Advancing Wall of Doom levels reads Marathon Man. In the first memory sequence, provided you get all the secrets, Klaus as a young boy can be seen reading. The text is small, but in fact he’s reading Orwell’s 1984. Klaus' last name being Spiegel and a woman from his past being named Julia is a reference to Cowboy Bebop. A title card reads Big Boss. |

Corrupt Corporate Executive: While never outright stated, Cornelio preferring to put humans in obviously dangerous situations rather than employ a robot (considering Klaus mentioning they didn’t pay too much, likely to cut costs) suggests they were rather shady. |
