Tempting Fate: Amber states they will see each other again when Debra gets off work, but with Debra being a horror game protagonist, it's obvious that's not going to happen.

Ambiguous Situation
 Night Shift (2018) (Video Game) / int_1f6983f7
comment
Ambiguous Situation: The killer attacks Debra, and while she is knocked head first into the pavement, with the screen going bloody, it's not actually specified whether she is dead, or just knocked out so the killer can sacrifice her to the entity later, and if it’s the latter is Debra the protagonist of Stay Out Of the House or was she killed offscreen. The Steam version of Stay Out of the House confirms the protagonist of that game is another woman, Roxanne, and Debra is shown to be alive as one of the Butcher's prisoners, who the player can save.

Bland-Name Product: The player works at gas station called Ecoq, an obvious knock-off of the real-life gas station chain called Esso. For good measure, the station's logo is near identical to the real-life one. There's also a Coke dispenser machine called Broke. 'Nuff said.

Katz. He's the one who mentions the bathroom keys not being where they should be, and he also vanishes after walking out of the building. He does mention he has a date, but it's possible he meant Debra. Stay Out of the House implies the Butcher is mentally impaired and incapable of speech, which would rule out him being Katz.

Everyone Is a Suspect
 Night Shift (2018) (Video Game) / int_323fd510
comment
Everyone Is a Suspect: There's a few different people who might be the killer. The creepy guy who appears a few times in the night. He asks a few cryptic questions, and he seems to just walk right out of the woods, despite the gas station being in the middle of the woods. The ending of Stay Out Of The House deconfirms this, though the fact he's apparently the Butcher's neighbor and has a very emotionless reaction to a terrified victim showing up at his front door does raise more suspicions about him. Whoever drives the van. Their motive is unknown, and they just seem to observe the gas station. Stay Out of the House reveals the killer owns a white van. Katz. He's the one who mentions the bathroom keys not being where they should be, and he also vanishes after walking out of the building. He does mention he has a date, but it's possible he meant Debra. Stay Out of the House implies the Butcher is mentally impaired and incapable of speech, which would rule out him being Katz.

Game-Breaking Bug
 Night Shift (2018) (Video Game) / int_33ca811a
comment
Game-Breaking Bug: When the killer spawns, there's a glitch where he can be temporarily stuck in the wall, offering the player enough time to get away. With this, it becomes apparent the killer's AI has almost no pathfinding in it, as he continuously attempts to walk into walls and store shelves to get her. Due to the killer getting Debra being the only ending, the player must walk into him intentionally to get the ending.

Creepy Stalker Van: Multiple times throughout the night, an unmarked white van will pull into the parking lot, slowly circle it a few times, then leave. It never stops, nobody ever enters or exits, and the windows are too tinted to see who the driver is.

Nothing Is Scarier: As per usual, Puppet Combo is an expert at building tension through silence and emptiness. Averted in the main game, Stay Out of the House, which is a tense cat-and-mouse challenge between you and the roaming killer inside the killer's decrepit and heavily boobytrapped house.

Featureless Protagonist: We have no way of knowing what the player looks like. Given Katz' warning that he can't unlock the bathroom door for you, and the fact that the mens' bathroom door can be opened (before punching in), it is at least confirmed that they are female. Later confirmed by Puppet Combo: The Night Shift protagonist is Debra Kopiske, explicitly named by a newspaper found in the butcher's house during the third chapter of the game (which takes place 9 days after Night Shift). In the Steam version of the game she's voice acted along with all the other characters.
