| Monstrum (Video Game) | comment |
Monstrum is a combination of the Roguelike and Survival Horror genres developed by Team Junkfish. It was released for PC on May 20th, 2015, with the versions for PlayStation 4, Nintendo Switch, and Xbox One following on November 30th, 2019. In addition, content themed on this game was released as DLC for Dark Deception: Monsters & Mortals in December of 2020.It places the player on a derelict, procedurally generated cargo ship, where they must attempt to find a way off. Seems straightforward, except all the escape routes are missing components to make them work, and standing between you and those components, there are certain… creatures.The gameplay is based around object-driven puzzle solving and escaping the monsters lurking within the ship, who will be alerted to your presence by any noise you make. The items you need are somewhere in the ship and may not even be present, forcing players to change their plans. The player and the creature are the only living things on the vessel, and that monster is hunting you from the moment the game starts. Each new file pits the player against one of three different monsters, but you'll never know which one you're facing until it finds you.An Asymmetric Multiplayer sequel, Monstrum 2, was announced in early 2019 and scheduled for release in late 2020. Taking place on an isolated sea fortress, 1 player takes the role of the monster while the other players take the role of prisoners attempting to escape. | |

OffScreenTeleportation | |
| Monstrum (Video Game) / int_11459bd4 | comment |
Offscreen Teleportation: The Hunter is another brand of horror because the player can't get away from the damn thing. It is using all the vents in the ship to keep up with you, and outright crawls up the side of the ship if you make too much noise on the deck. It'll even pop out of the many eggs it lays, and those can be anywhere onboard. Datamining shows that the game specifically spawns the Hunter outside the submarine room if you start the submarine activation sequence, to ensure a final confrontation. This is not true of the other two escape types or monsters, though they will most likely be drawn in by the noise. | |

| Monstrum (Video Game) / int_1eed8e76 | comment |
The Brute: A hulking, fiery golem. Physically the strongest of the monsters, able to knock down doors when pursuing you. However, it's also by far the noisiest of the monsters, allowing the player to hear it coming, and its Glowing Eyes of Doom creates a red light wherever it looks that warns the player if it's just around the corner. | |

Boring, but Practical | |
| Monstrum (Video Game) / int_39b8d3d6 | comment |
Boring, but Practical: The Brute is the most straightforward monster, being an Almighty Idiot of pure physicality, unlike the Hunter and the Fiend, who use more complex tactics and abilities. However, said physicality still makes it a terrifying Juggernaut. The Life Raft ending. While the Helicopter and Submarine ones involve cooler vehicles, the Life Raft one takes the least steps to complete, and doesn't automatically make you play a final Protection Mission against the monster. | |

You Wake Up in a Room | |
| Monstrum (Video Game) / int_6126185e | comment |
You Wake Up in a Room: The protagonist seems shocked to be on the ship, and doesn't know how they got there. That said, it's not the driving question, seeing as your main priority is to get off the ship to escape the abominations chasing you. It's left vague as to whether the protagonist is one of the two crewmen who are mentioned in the notes as having been unconscious during the initial attack due to earlier injuries and has amnesia, or if they're an entirely random stranger who has been transported to the ship by unknown means. Neither possibility is ruled out by the game. | |

Excuse Plot | |
| Monstrum (Video Game) / int_70d8269d | comment |
Excuse Plot: You wake up on a ship with no memory of how you got there. There's a monster on the ship with you. Escape. That's the entire extent of the game's plot. Scattered notes found around the ship provide some background flavor (such as establishing the year the ship fell to the monster as 1977, and possibly hinting that the monsters are wildlife or humans that were injected with an experimental healing serum derived from deep sea jellyfish), but don't present an over-arcing story. | |

Ambiguous Time Period | |
| Monstrum (Video Game) / int_7eb2bc15 | comment |
Ambiguous Time Period: One of the collectible notes indicates that the ship fell to the monster in 1977, although whether or not that's the year the game takes place isn't established (given that the protagonist's notes state he showed up on the ship without explanation). Certainly, you don't find any items or technology that weren't around in 1977, other than the standard video-game automated security cameras (which we don't even have now). Monstrum 2 indicates that it takes place 50 years after the original game, which most likely implies the first game does take place in the 1970's, though it could also mean the sequel occurs in a dystopian near future. | |

The Fiend: A wraith-like demon that levitates instead of walking (it has no feet). It has supernatural powers like shorting out lights whenever it is near and possessing telekinetic abilities. It "plays on more malevolent tropes like serial killers and the supernatural". Oh, and its inclusion to the game was veiled in the patch notes, catching most players by surprise when they encountered it for the first time. | |

It Can Think | |
| Monstrum (Video Game) / int_c95d04f2 | comment |
The Fiend is the mage. It's the slowest monster in the game with relatively low strength, but is supposedly more intelligent than the player. It also has a wide array of telekinetic abilities and is meant to invoke a feeling of powerlessness. | |

Rock Monster | |
| Monstrum (Video Game) / int_ccf6b1b0 | comment |
Rock Monster: The Brute is a massive Golem type thing that looks like cooled lava, complete with Glowing Eyes of Doom that can give you a warning that he's nearby — if the stomping doesn't tip you off. | |

The Brute is the fighter, extremely fast and extremely strong, but mindless and stupid. | |

Universal Driver's License | |
| Monstrum (Video Game) / int_dd797c1c | comment |
Universal Driver's License: The protagonist is able to competently drive both the helicopter and the submarine (vehicles which require an enormous amount of training to operate), and can fly the helicopter well enough to pull off a complex, risky maneuver (scraping the monster off on a passing cargo container while it's hanging off the landing struts). | |

Almighty Idiot | |
| Monstrum (Video Game) / int_e1b3c8a1 | comment |
The Brute is the most straightforward monster, being an Almighty Idiot of pure physicality, unlike the Hunter and the Fiend, who use more complex tactics and abilities. However, said physicality still makes it a terrifying Juggernaut. | |

Featureless Protagonist | |
| Monstrum (Video Game) / int_e3f34fb4 | comment |
Featureless Protagonist: Being in first person, the player never sees their face. Even in the old game over screens depicting the protagonist, their face is obscured, though they are a light-skinned male. The death screens were removed in the latest version of the game, possibly for this reason. | |

The Mole | |
| Monstrum (Video Game) / int_e70127 | comment |
The Mole: The collectible notes reveal that at least two or more passengers or crew on board the ship were part of a secret operation to gather mysterious "specimens" from the Pacific Rim region. The implication is that the specimens may have hatched or matured and become the monsters, though the notes are extremely vague and this may or may not be the case. New notes added in the 2016 patch seem to suggest the specimens were deep-sea jellyfish, which were used to create a serum that unwittingly creates the monsters. | |

Fighter, Mage, Thief | |
| Monstrum (Video Game) / int_edae412c | comment |
Fighter, Mage, Thief: The three monsters could be seen as operating this way. The Brute is the fighter, extremely fast and extremely strong, but mindless and stupid. The Hunter is the thief. It's physically weak, and the player can outrun it, but it can skitter through vents and ambush the player and is described as a cunning predator. The Fiend is the mage. It's the slowest monster in the game with relatively low strength, but is supposedly more intelligent than the player. It also has a wide array of telekinetic abilities and is meant to invoke a feeling of powerlessness. The sequel follows the similar pattern with its monsters. The Brute is still the Fighter, the Bhagra is the new thief with the ability to crawl on the ceiling and track survivors by their scent trails, and the Malacosm is the new mage, able to teleport through the use of small sentry creatures it spawns and track survivors by psychically seeing through their eyes. | |

Complexity Addiction | |
| Monstrum (Video Game) / int_f6b698ac | comment |
Complexity Addiction: Unlike the Brute and the Hunter, the Fiend prefers to Just Toy with You before going for the kill. Justified, though, since its Mind over Matter is a Story-Breaker Power; and if it wasn't playing around, it could easily snap the player's neck without them being able to do anything about it. | |

Was Once a Man: The new notes added in the 2016 patch reveal that the Brute and the Fiend were created in medical experiments where two injured "test subjects" were injected with a regenerative serum derived from deep-sea jellyfish. The test subjects may or may not have been the two injured crew members that are mentioned repeatedly in the notes and audio logs. | |
