All There in the Manual: According to the numbering on the cards themselves, the player should be able to collect 28 "secret files" cards with information about various Mystery Trackers agents and devices. However, according to the in-game strategy guide, there are only 16 found in the actual gameplay. The remaining twelve cards feature other famous fictional detectives, such as Sherlock Holmes, and can only be found by completing the "Secret Room" feature in the bonus material.

Title Drop
 Mystery Trackers (Video Game) / int_18d15922
comment
Title Drop: Because the Mystery Trackers are the organization for whom the player works, their name gets dropped in every installment. The subtitles of some of the games are also dropped because of their relevance to the plot. For example, Raincliff, Black Isle, and Silent Hollow are the locations of those games, so their names are mentioned frequently.

Sealed Evil in a Can: Centuries earlier, one of the original founders of the Mystery Trackers, Morpheus, tried to take over the knighthood and turn it to his own evil ends. He was tried, convicted, and sentenced to eternal slumber in a special sarcophagus beneath the castle. In the present day, he's breaking out, and his mind control powers are letting him wreak havoc on the modern organization. Only his own many-times-great-granddaughter has the power to stop him.

Early-Installment Weirdness
 Mystery Trackers (Video Game) / int_4f4372e9
comment
Early-Installment Weirdness: The first game has less-than-polished CGI, which can look weird in retrospect. The next five games can also come across this way to players who came into the series later, as they feature live actors superimposed on illustrated backgrounds. Beginning with Raincliff's Phantoms, this is dropped in favor of completely illustrated gameplay. The earliest games in the series don't have the interactive map which is typical of Elephant Games, which can be frustrating to someone who started with games that do and became accustomed to using the map to fast travel.

It's All My Fault: The detective eventually learns that this is Abigail's driving motivation. The plague which killed people and led to the quarantine was caused by one of her alchemical experiments, so she devised a massive ritual to give new life to all those who died as a result. Only problem is that said ritual will result in Grand Theft Me on hundreds of living people.

Spanner in the Works: Arabella becomes this for her brothers. When a group of college students come to Raincliff to investigate the rumors of the "phantoms," the Brown siblings capture them and plan to use the family's amnesia-inducing roses to make them forget all about the place, then release them unharmed outside of town. However, Arabella falls in love with one of the students and doesn't want him to forget her, so she joins forces with the detective to get the students out of Raincliff with their memories intact.

Later, the player gets a clear look at Dark Amber, the detective's Dark Trackers counterpart, who is basically her Evil Twin and therefore shows us exactly what the detective looks like. It's actually The Reveal for Memories of Shadowfield - the detective's dark doppelganger is Agent Blade, who was the antagonist during the bonus chapter of that game.

(Elf's equipment, however, will never fail even if Gas Mask Mode is in play, so don't worry about him!)

Shared Universe: These games exist in the same universe as several other Elephant Games properties, including Grim Tales, Haunted Hotel, Detectives United, and Paranormal Files. They also are revealed to exist in the same universe as the Mystery Case Files, owing to the fact that Richard Gray (of Grim Tales) once studied at a black magic school run by Alister Dalimar. (Elephant Games was the developer for two of the MCF games.)

comment
In the bonus chapter, the Commander believes that the recent stirrings in Iron Rock may be the work of the Dark Trackers Agency. He's Right for the Wrong Reasons. Murray Dolman has joined the Dark Trackers, so in that sense they are active in Iron Rock, but he's not there to create problems. It's implied that he was deliberately trying to get the attention of the Mystery Trackers so they would find the hidden hospital; possibly he wanted to reunite Rachel with her parents as a means of apologizing for what he did to her in the main game.

What Happened to the Mouse?
 Mystery Trackers (Video Game) / int_863fa679
comment
What Happened to the Mouse?: At the end of the game, the citizens of Iron Rock are evacuated by the Mystery Trackers, but the detective notes that no one is entirely sure what happened to Murray. He's presumed dead, but as the bonus chapter shows, he's not. Where he goes after the bonus chapter is unknown, since the only person who could confirm that he's still alive has had her memory wiped.

In the Blood: As a girl, Amber wanted to become a scientist just like her parents.

Picking through photographs in one puzzle also reveals that this was true of her brother Will, who wanted to be an astronomer and had won an award for his studies shortly before his death.

She does show up at the very end of the main game, watching Amber as she visits her family's graves, but Amber doesn't know she's there.

Mission Control: When the detective is sent on an official mission rather than accidentally stumbling into the plot in progress, the Commander of the Mystery Trackers usually takes on this role. Occasionally Agent Shade fills in.

Locked Door: If there's a door and you need to get past it, odds are that it will be locked and you will need to either find the key or find some other method of unlocking it, such as removing the doorknob. And if by chance the door isn't locked, expect it to be blocked in some other way.

Classical Elements Ensemble: Seen in the bonus chapter, as the Four Aces' project "King of Elements" starts wreaking havoc in Brightfield. Four people were left behind during the most recent evacuation and are afflicted by the elements - one is turned to stone (earth), one is burning (fire), one is borne aloft by a strange wind (air), and one is frozen in ice (water). Fortunately, the detective is able to reverse the effects.

As it turns out, he's got nothing to do with their disappearance; he's just annoyed because he has the same Laser-Guided Amnesia as everyone else and thinks the agents are wasting his time. Players might expect him to interfere with the investigation, but he never appears again once Black lures him out of his office.

 Mystery Trackers (Video Game) / int_e3f34fb4
comment
Featureless Protagonist: Played completely straight in the first two games, as the player character is never seen at all. Starting with Black Isle, the trope becomes more zig-zagged; usually all that's seen of the character is her hands and arms, but we do occasionally see more of her. In Darkwater Bay she appears onscreen fully, lying unconscious on a sofa; she's a woman in her early thirties with pale skin and dark brown hair. She's also seen fully in The Secret of Watch Hill, but only at the very end of the game and only from behind, so her face is still not shown. Averted in a few instances where someone else is the player character, like the bonus chapters of The Secret of Watch Hill and Fatal Lesson. In Forgotten Voices, the player characters are the three cadet agents introduced in the previous game, who are seen fully onscreen.

comment
Swamps Are Evil: There's quite a bit of swampland separating the villages of Nightsville and Willowsville, and it's the setting for a lot of the problems the two communities are having. It's also the place where The Dragon tries to drown the detective.

One-Steve Limit: Zig-zagged. The main antagonist of this game is The Headless One, a distant cousin of Agent Brown's, who has used chemistry to make himself invisible since he didn't inherit the family ability. The Headless One is also what Rafael Brown called himself in Raincliff; after his death, this cousin appropriated the name for himself.

The Starscream: In the bonus chapter, Doctor Cyanide turns on the Queen of Hearts after she shoots him. He complains to the detective that he was always loyal to the Queen and believed in her plan, and he can't believe this is how she repays him. He then gives the detective the key to a secret cache and, with his dying breath, urges her to stop the Queen.

Never Found the Body: After the incident which killed her family, Amber stayed in Watch Hill long enough to have a funeral for her little brother, but her parents' bodies were never located. She finally finds them during the investigation; they had locked themselves in the panic room with the Black Mimic, because it had killed their son and they couldn't let it kill their daughter too.

Shapeshifting
 Mystery Trackers (Video Game) / int_f5190cfc
comment
Shapeshifting: The Black Mimic is a non-corporeal entity which, when it touches a human, steals their memories and leaves them a motionless shell. It can then use those memories to manifest the appearance of anyone or anything found in them. The copy of Will that Amber keeps seeing is the Mimic, using the memory of him it stole from one of her parents before it killed them.

 Mystery Trackers (Video Game) / int_f66dfb4b
comment
His Name Really Is "Barkeep": The birth name of Agent Brown, who is first introduced as an antagonist in Raincliff, is in fact Dorian Brown. Later, in The Secret of Watch Hill, the player finds a scientific award which was given to the player character, whose code name has finally been revealed to be Agent Amber, and this document confirms that her birth name really is Amber Edevane. It's never explained why Agent Brown and Agent Amber were permitted to use their real names as code names.

comment
Our Werewolves Are Different: Agent Wulf, a Mystery Trackers scout whom the detective encounters during the investigation, is a werewolf. However, his data card shows that he wasn't born one, nor was he bitten; his lycanthropy is the result of genetic experiments that were done on him in the past, and as such he has more control over his werewolf form and abilities than most do.
