Multiple Endings | |
| Marrow (Video Game) / int_1aa08f77 | comment |
Multiple Endings: More gameover than an actual ending, Bad End is obtained if Daniel's defeated the Familiar without saving all of the orphans. The protagonist just dies right afterwards, though it doesn't seem like the true ending brings any more happy conclusion for him. | |

Ability Required to Proceed: Not only offensive abilities will be required to get into every nook and cranny of the mountain's underworld, but also the Fissures, through which Daniel's able to mutate into a warped version of himself: too weak to fight, but small enough to squeeze through tight spots. | |

Bittersweet Ending: In the true ending, Daniel manages to defeat the Familiar and send all of his friends back to surface. However, right afterwards intense flow of marrow begins flooding the dungeons. Trying to escape, Daniel almost makes it but get caught by the overwhelming flow, and the only thing left of him is his medallion that pops up to the surface. Whether he's died or not, still remains unknown. | |

Sound of No Damage | |
| Marrow (Video Game) / int_50308171 | comment |
Sound of No Damage: Lumen Caster has an impenetrable shield on it, that has to be turned off as it blocks any damage dealt to the boss; Imprisoned Seer can't be damaged by melee weapons at all, and the only way to kill it is by reflecting its magical blasts; the orb of the final Olnok's Eyes form is only taking damage when glowing blue. | |

Nintendo Hard | |
| Marrow (Video Game) / int_62259825 | comment |
Nintendo Hard: As a product of love to NES and SNES era, the game is absolutely merciless in terms of difficulty, especially in comparison with many other metroidvania titles: there's no map option, no health bar, the player is consistently surrounded by darkness and its deadly inhabitants. Besides, the game uses Checkpoint system, and upon dying or saving at one of them most of the previously killed enemies will be revived. | |

| Marrow (Video Game) / int_67e9f779 | comment |
Teleport Spam: Lurkers are constantly teleporting to player while being barely visible and invulnerable, as if their high damage wasn't painful enough to deal with. Same goes for the Familiar, in addition to its other nasty tricks. | |

Eldritch Abomination | |
| Marrow (Video Game) / int_8774fb47 | comment |
Eldritch Abomination: The world of Marrow is filled with them. Wretched Stulands and, especially, Stuland Patriarch, enormous half-ghostly creatures, affected by marrow. Formerly humans, whose experiments with the otherworldly substance went too far, they're neither dead, not alive now, aimlessly wandering the halls of the Manor, buried and forgotten deep underground. Unseen, a sentinel of the Manor's entrance. While being completely invisible for Daniel's human eyes, it's true form is being shown in Echo Realm, having giant insect-like claws and a big red eye. In addition, there's a lot of eyeballs floating around it, though it's unknown if they have any connection to the Unseen. Dying Successes, stationary tree-like creatures that continuously produces marrow. They have humanoid faces, resembling human ones. The Familiar, a powerful godlike being that was born from the experiments of crossbreeding between the marrow affected humanoid and a lumen fly. It has an appearance of underdeveloped and mutated humanoid embryo growing from the big main body, having both insect and human traits, as well as the pair of alienish eyes. It's unknown if the Familiar's mind is actually well-developed, or it's still on level of a newborn child, but considering it staying sealed in the Red Tower for centuries despite all of it's enormous might, we can assume the latter. The Glooms, invulnerable and dangerous inhabitants of the Malignance, serving as a kind of "immune system" of the location. Usually sleeping, they're being awakened when Daniel's getting in contact with their Dreams, that makes them relentlessly pursuing him. | |

And I Must Scream: Baptized are the victims of marrow experimenting, injected with the substance and turned by it into unkillable, immortal blobs. They inhabit the pools of drying marrow on the lower layers of the Necropolis: unable to escape or die, and doomed to live in darkness. | |

Jump Scare | |
| Marrow (Video Game) / int_c04b1231 | comment |
Jump Scare: The game barely uses them, but there're several nonetheless: First encounter with the Familiar and the Haunters of the Broken Spheres at the obelisk in Windheim. The Familiar's scream at the passage between the Reservoir and the Necropolis. Not really a jumpscare: in the Red Tower, there's a huge empty room with the dead bodies of unknown creatures lying on them. If you get past them until the end of the room, and then go back, you'll see one of the bodies in sitting pose. If you reenter the room after that, the body will be gone. | |

Anti-Frustration Features | |
| Marrow (Video Game) / int_d6f284a3 | comment |
Anti-Frustration Features: Grit Regain spell allows Daniel to regenerate his health for the cost of mana, making his voyage a bit more safer. Warp Rite allows Daniel to warp back to the last checkpoint without resetting the enemies. However, doing this after the mysterious bell rings kills the protagonist on spot instead. While the standard melee attack immobilizes Daniel for a moment and makes him an easy target for the foes, attacking while jumping doesn't limit his agility at all, and is much more comfortable to use. Finding new Grit and Clarity upgrades fully replenish Dan's health and mana, respectively. | |
