Night Trap is an Interactive Movie game by Digital Pictures. It was created (well, filmed) in 1987 and was originally intended to be released on Hasbro's videotape-based game console, the NEMO. However, the NEMO was never released, and the game debuted in 1992 on the Sega CD. In 1994, it arrived on the Sega 32X, Panasonic 3DO Interactive Multiplayer, IBM Personal Computer, and Apple Macintosh. To celebrate its 25th anniversary, it was released on PlayStation 4 and Platform/Steam on August 15, 2017 (with the Xbox One version set to be released at a later time), complete with a limited physical run which mimics the Sega CD box art; this version includes the prototype game Scene of the Crime which led into Night Trap's development. These rereleases were handled by VFX company Flash Film Works, current owners of the Digital Pictures game library and Screaming Villains.You are a member of a special task force (S.C.A.T.: Sega/Special Control Attack Team) currently investigating a missing persons case. A number of teenage students have mysteriously vanished after entering a suburban lakeside winery house belonging to the Martin family. The Martins claim that the girls left safely, and refuse to allow the police to search the property. However, a reconnaissance by S.C.A.T. uncovers an elaborate security system with almost every room equipped with cameras and booby traps designed to capture intruders.An undercover S.C.A.T. agent named Kelly Medd (played by Dana Plato) has managed to infiltrate the house by arranging a sleepover with the Martins' teenage daughter and four other friends. Furthermore, you have hacked into the security system and gained control over the house's cameras and traps. When the house is suddenly invaded by a band of black-clothed stalkers, it falls to you to use the traps and protect the girls while investigating the secret of the Martin household.The game is mostly known for the undue controversy that it caused upon release. It is no exaggeration to call it the reason games have age classifications and content ratings; it and Mortal Kombat are the primary games that inspired the creation of the ESRB. It has also made several "Worst Games Ever" lists (which is funny in hindsight, considering upon its release it received a fair amount of critical acclaim for its use of full-motion video and multiple-playthrough approach to gameplay). Due to this controversy, then-Nintendo of America Chairman declared that Night Trap would never appear on any Nintendo system; however, in April 2018 it was announced that the game would be coming to the Nintendo Switch in similar fashion to the PS4 release.Some of the former staff who were involved in the game had suggested the possibility of a sequel in the future.Followed by a Spiritual Successor titled Double Switch in 1993. | |

| Night Trap (Video Game) / int_15264ac9 | comment |
Unexpectedly Realistic Gameplay: The first time the trap access code is changed, it takes Tony and Jeff several seconds to get to the console to do so after being instructed by Mrs. Martin, so you need to trap one auger while remaining on Blue before changing to the new color. | |

| Night Trap (Video Game) / int_15b2cab3 | comment |
The perfect ending has Kelly praising you and hoping to work with you again. As she leaves, she walks over the trap you used to capture Sarah and jokes about you trapping her. In a Cruel Twist Ending, you actually can pull a Face–Heel Turn on her and capture her. Although the end credits were shown after all the Game Over scenes and both the normal and perfect endings back in the 1990s console versions (which was quite common with a lot of Sega CD FMV games back then), the 2017 edition limits the credits to only the normal and perfect endings, and instead gives you the option to either retry or quit after each Game Over sequence. | |

Transhuman Treachery: Cindy, if you let Jeff bite her. She actually seems quite happy to be part of the walking undead. If you let Tony capture Kelly, it's implied this happens as well, as Tony learns of the override from her. | |

Multiple Endings | |
| Night Trap (Video Game) / int_1aa08f77 | comment |
Multiple Endings: There are several ways the game could end, including the Game Over sequences: Letting too many augers roam around the house, both in the beginning of the game and before disc 1 ends, will cause Simms to interrupt your broadcast and kick you off the mission. Failing to rescue Danny (PS4/XONE remaster only), his sister Lisa, Ashley, or Megan will result in this too, albeit with different messages. Failing to rescue Cindy causes Jeff to make Cindy a vampire. Cindy will tell Jeff about the override cables, which prompts him to regain access of the house. Victor and Sheila override your control and send you through a death trap. Failing to rescue Kelly when Tony approaches her will result in him dragging her down to the basement, where he discovers your controls and informs Jeff about it offscreen. Jeff overrides your control and tells you off before sending you through a death trap. In the 25th Anniversary Edition, letting in too many Augers in the second half of the game will result in one of them discovering the override cable and alerting Victor and Sheila when they return. Victor will then override your control by removing the cable and switching you back in from all the remaining rooms you were in before, and he and Sheila will then tell you off on this before sending you through a death trap. Failing to rescue Kelly from the Martins in the last sequence of the game will result in her being captured by the augers and bitten by whoever you first failed to capture. All endings including the one where Kelly gets trapped, ends with Kelly's soul falling into the abyss. The normal ending, which you'll get if you complete all critical saves/captures while missing some augers, has Kelly congratulating you, but believing you can do better with practice. As she leaves, there's a parting shot of an auger appearing behind her. Thankfully, Kelly just leaves and survives off-screen. The perfect ending has Kelly praising you and hoping to work with you again. As she leaves, she walks over the trap you used to capture Sarah and jokes about you trapping her. In a Cruel Twist Ending, you actually can pull a Face–Heel Turn on her and capture her. Although the end credits were shown after all the Game Over scenes and both the normal and perfect endings back in the 1990s console versions (which was quite common with a lot of Sega CD FMV games back then), the 2017 edition limits the credits to only the normal and perfect endings, and instead gives you the option to either retry or quit after each Game Over sequence. | |

Menace Decay: Night Trap shocked the nation in the 1990s (or at least the more busybody members of the U.S. Congress, anyway). In 2017, the game was re-released for the PS4 and Steam (with the Xbox One version soon to follow)... and rated "T" for Teen, with BETTER quality video than any previous version. | |

Uncertain Doom | |
| Night Trap (Video Game) / int_2854b56d | comment |
Uncertain Doom: It's left ambiguous if Lt. Simms survives the climax. Since you do not get a perfect ending if you trap him, it's very possible he was simply knocked out like Swanson (provided you stop her from being strangled). It's also unclear whether Deke survives. He is thrown through a window by Victor, but it's unclear if this killed him or merely left him incapacitated. | |

Magical Security Cam | |
| Night Trap (Video Game) / int_3892655c | comment |
Magical Security Cam: The normally stationary security cameras suddenly zoom in or out and sometimes even move to cover new angles whenever something is happening in a room. At times the video could be coming from a camera physically located at the same place as where the normally static image originates, but many times the change in video feed would require physically moving the camera. | |

Boss-Arena Idiocy: In the Boss Rush noted below, despite being well aware that someone has control over the house's cameras and traps and is using the system against them, the Martins will very obviously blunder directly into their own traps in their zeal to capture Kelly (or gloat), allowing the player to nab them each in turn. The only one with an excuse is Shiela, who didn't know about the trap that caught her. | |

Stock Footage: A few auger capture scenes are recycled to pad out the game's length. Also, Danny's eventual escape from the house is a straight duplication of his earlier scene being menaced by them, even in the 2017 version which reinstates his possible death scene (once you've saved him, of course). | |

"Everybody Dies" Ending: Provided that you play perfectly and trap all of the bad guys and the Martin Family without trapping any of the good guys, if for some reason you decide to trap Kelly, this is the likely ending since it seems the Martin Family killed the SCAT team and by trapping the Martins and Kelly, no one is alive at the end of the game. | |

Gameplay and Story Segregation | |
| Night Trap (Video Game) / int_6320eced | comment |
Gameplay and Story Segregation: A surprisingly literal example. Due to the live feed nature of the video, and only being able to focus on one room at a time, playing a perfect run denies you the full story as augers are often wandering around away from the girls and/or the Martins. Kelly will address the cameras as if she expects you to be focusing on her all the time. At least in the 2017 edition you can still see the story going on in other room icons while you're trapping Augers, but you still can't unlock more story scenes in Theater mode until you at least highlight one of the room icons for them. | |

The One Guy: Danny is the only male guest in the weekend slumber party consisting of the otherwise five teenage girls. Justified in that he's Lisa's kid brother, whose mother made Lisa take him along for the party at the Martins. This is even more so in the 2017 edition, when he has to be protected from the Augers just like every other guest (although no one even mentioned that he also has to be saved from the Augs in the first place). | |

Axe Before Entering: While Kelly reveals herself as a S.C.A.T. member to her friends in the bedroom, the two augers approach the bedroom door, and one of them pulls out a short ax and begins hacking at the door in hopes that it will open. | |

Wine Is Classy: The Martin family lives in a winery estate, so it's no surprise that Victor can be seen holding A Glass of Chianti and toasting to everyone's health. Of course, there is red in the wine, which is a bit more sinister and resembles blood, thus giving out a hint that the Martins are vampires. | |

Meaningful Name | |
| Night Trap (Video Game) / int_6bda9a30 | comment |
Meaningful Name: The creatures are called "augers"; an auger is a hollow drill used to take core samples of any surface. The augers use a trocar device which drills through a person's skin and suck out their blood. | |

Guide Dang It! | |
| Night Trap (Video Game) / int_6ec989d8 | comment |
Guide Dang It!: The split-second room changes the game requires from you are nearly impossible without playing the game multiple times or having a comprehensive walk-through. Even veterans who have played the 1992 game or its other 1990s console versions before while playing the 2017 edition (and going for a perfect run) will suddenly get treated to a Game Over scene of Danny getting captured and drained of blood in the downstairs hallway (which wasn't there in the previous console versions before) and realize that they missed an extra Auger to trap! Guide Dang It, indeed. | |

Mistaken for an Imposter | |
| Night Trap (Video Game) / int_725a80b2 | comment |
Mistaken for an Imposter: In the "controversial" bathroom scene, when Lisa hears an auger in the shower, she thinks the auger is Megan in a "scary costume" and opens the shower door in an attempt to get it out; but when it starts coming for her, she gets an "Oh, Crap!" look and tries to escape but is cornered by two more augers... and that could be the end of her if not for the floor trap near the shower that the auger is getting on (provided that you have the correct access code color to activate the trap and save her in time). Inverted if you try to catch one of the "augers" on one occasion... without even knowing that the "auger" is actually Weird Eddie in disguise. | |

What Happened to the Mouse? | |
| Night Trap (Video Game) / int_863fa679 | comment |
What Happened to the Mouse?: We don't know what happens to the girls or Danny after they escape the house. Some of them are last seen being chased by augers too, making things a bit concerning... The worst case has to be Weird Eddie, who dresses up as an auger, goes into the house with Danny, goes into a room that cannot be seen on the security cameras...and than disappears for the rest of the game. Since you need to avoid trapping him in order to get a perfect run in the re-release, it can be assumed that as long as you don't trap him, he survives, but it's anyone's guess what happens to him after he goes into the room. The same goes for SCAT member Charlie, who is last seen chasing after some augers after going upstairs. Again, you must avoid trapping him to get a perfect ending, so it can be assumed that he survives, but we don't know why he seems to suddenly disappear from the house after this. | |

Retraux: 25th Anniversary Edition lets you choose between upscaled versions of the Sega CD, 3DO, and MS-DOS interfaces. Even better is that developer, Tyler Hogle, took the game's three deleted Game Over scenes from backup VHS tapes, recropped them to widescreen, and modified them to to fit on the respective interfaces so it would look like the entire game is being played uncut on any 1990s console version. | |

Conveniently Timed Distraction: As events occur concurrently, one set of enemies will appear and move about a room slowly while another might suddenly show up after and hurriedly blunder into position to be trapped prior to the first, making multiple groups of Augers wandering at once effectively this trope. It's especially bad in instances when it seems like all attention should be dedicated to keeping a group of girls safe, when in actuality you're supposed to briefly switch over to trap the Augers in another room first. | |

Interface Spoiler | |
| Night Trap (Video Game) / int_9cb3e22e | comment |
Interface Spoiler: In the 1990s, the Sega CD version and the other four console versions had the room icons that were static images, and you could only see what was going on in one room by selecting it. In the 2017 remaster, the room icons now have dynamic, real-time thumbnails, meaning that if you see movement in one room while being in another, you know that something's going on. For example, you can watch the girls rock out in the living room and impress Sarah, while you witness the Augers kidnap S.C.A.T. member Jason and drain his blood in the downstairs hallway before taking him to the basement without even going to said hallway! (One Defunct Games review described the moving icons as feeling like you're watching a livestream event of the game itself.) Beating the game to unlock Theater Mode counts after you've gotten the most spoileriffic scenes. | |

Our Vampires Are Different: Vampires can teleport, make their eyes glow, have super strength, are unharmed by bullets, and can shoot lightning from their hands. Other vampires are created by completely draining a mortal of blood. However, if not enough blood is taken, an auger is created. Augers look like limping burglars due to the fact that they cover themselves completely in black clothing because their skin falls off of their bones due to their hunger. | |

In the 2017 edition, if you let the Auger tackle Danny for the laser gun while another Auger puts the blood extractor device behind his neck, he quickly turns around to see the device clamp itself on his throat, and he gets this "Oh, Crap!" look as the device turns on while trying to free himself, knowing that its drill will soon bore itself into his throat and its vacuum will drain his blood... | |

Final Girl: Kelly is the last girl left after all of the other girls have left after you rescue the others from the Augers, and unlike the usual final girl, she is still helpless against the Augers and the Martins and it is up to you to rescue her before they drain her of all of her blood. | |

Ms. Fanservice: In Disc 1, you can see Kelly and Cindy taking off their shirts and baring their midriffs after a party. In fact, they will remain in this way for the rest of the game. (Actually, Kelly and all the girls sans Lisa are baring their midriffs throughout the game.) | |

All Up to You | |
| Night Trap (Video Game) / int_b0a0108d | comment |
All Up to You: The entire premise of the game is like this. Instead of the SCAT Team breaking into the Martin’s house to arrest them they rely on you to trap any of the Bad Guys before any of the Girls get drained of their blood by the Augers. Then you have to save Kelly herself from getting bitten by the Martins themselves. Partially justified in the beginning since they have Kelly undercover and they don’t intervene until they get the okay signal from her to come into the house and maybe also evidence. And totally justified at the end because the rest of the SCAT team gets killed when they confront the Martins, leaving only you to be the one to rescue Kelly from the Vampire Family. | |

Non-Standard Game Over | |
| Night Trap (Video Game) / int_c03fec8b | comment |
Nonstandard Game Over: The original Sega CD release had one right at the beginning, the player can lose the game by simply not doing anything during the opening cutscene. You can trap the SCAT agent doing recon upstairs. If you do so, Simms will immediately disconnect you. A few times in scenes where the good guys are grappling with the augers or Martins, they'll struggle into range of a trap, which you'll be permitted to trigger; doing so results in this. The one exception is trapping Kelly, which is treated as an alternate version of the perfect ending. | |

Real Women Don't Wear Dresses: S.C.A.T. member Swanson plays it straight very late in the game. Also, Kelly wears a blue sports bra hidden under her revealing blue-striped white shirt, along with her blue jeans, to show that she's an Action Girl who's not like her other girl friends who wear dresses and are in danger of getting drained by the augers (Megan, however, averts this trope, since she wears a crop top and pants, yet she is in danger). Of course, she ends up being the one who needs your help to get rid of Tony and the Martin family toward the end of the game. Oh, and Sarah averts this as well, since she wears a white dress and yet can still pack a powerful bite. | |

Hope Spot: If you miss either Victor and/or Shelia during the Boss Rush and defeat Sarah, Kelly will initially appear to escape, but then whichever Martin you missed first will show up with a crowd of augers to drain Kelly. The official Re-Cut included with the Updated Re-release takes it up to eleven, as even though all three of the Martins are trapped, Victor is revealed to still be alive and drains Kelly anyway. | |

Silent Treatment: In the 2017 edition, if you fail to save Danny, Lt. Simms briefly appears on the top-right corner of the CRT's screen and gives you the silent treatment as punishment by refusing to speak to you (he just has no words to describe your failure in causing the Death of a Child) before pulling a quick SCAT System Disconnect on you, resulting in a Game Over. (Probably Justified, as the filmmakers probably didn't film any scene where he chides you for failing to save Danny.) | |

Anti-Frustration Features | |
| Night Trap (Video Game) / int_d6f284a3 | comment |
Anti-Frustration Features: The 2017 edition removes the credits from all the game over sequences and instead gives you the option to retry if you lose. After you saved Lisa, where Disc 1 would end before you started Disc 2 in the 1990s console versions, the 2017 edition saves your progress on the midway checkpoint before the game continues on, so you can now return to that checkpoint if you lose. One example is that if you fail to save Cindy, the game continues on as normal, but only for a few minutes. If this happened in the 1990s console versions, you were screwed and would get a bad ending; but if you failed to save her in the 2017 edition, then you might as well either trap Megan or let her get killed in order to save yourself any further embarrassment of a Downer Ending. There's also the addition of having the camera icons update in real-time as opposed to you having to constantly flip between cameras hoping you'll find something. | |

Have a Nice Death | |
| Night Trap (Video Game) / int_d933263 | comment |
Have a Nice Death: Letting Tony capture Kelly will cause him to drag her down to the basement, where he'll immediately find out the cables connecting your controller to the house. He will then inform Jeff offscreen. Jeff will then personally tell you how much you messed up before sending you down one of the traps. A similar event will happen if you allow Cindy to die, as she will be turned into a vampire by Jeff and tell him about the override cables, which will prompt him to give access of the control to his parents. Victor and Sheila will then send you down a trap. And in yet another similar event exclusive to the 2017 edition, letting in too many Augers in the second half of the game will cause one of them to discover the override cable in the back hallway and alert Victor and Sheila there when they return; Victor will scare off the Aug before removing the cable and regaining control, and he and Sheila will switch you in from all the remaining rooms you were in before, and they will briefly greet you before sending you down the trap to your doom. | |

Not Quite Dead: In the official Re-Cut, even though all three of the Martins are trapped, Victor is revealed to still be around and drains Kelly anyway. | |

Family-Friendly Firearms | |
| Night Trap (Video Game) / int_e466ae41 | comment |
Family-Friendly Firearms: "Weird Eddie", one of the Martins' neighbors, invented a laser gun in order to combat them and the augers. Interestingly, the SCAT team has real guns, though it's still not particularly violent. (The augers only seem to emit sparks even when shot with real guns and the Martins, being vampires, are immune to bullets.) | |

Press Start to Game Over | |
| Night Trap (Video Game) / int_e4c91c25 | comment |
Press Start to Game Over: It's possible to get a Game Over during the intro simply by doing nothing. This was actually quite common with a lot of Sega CD FMV games back then. The 2017 version removes this entirely. | |

Casual Danger Dialog: The times you fail to save Kelly from the baddies, she berates you as if you just spilled wine on the carpet rather than her life being at stake. | |

Achievement System | |
| Night Trap (Video Game) / int_eabd22f9 | comment |
Various unlockables and achievements in the 2017 version are tied to letting each of the girls (and Danny) get killed or trapped. You can also trap a few S.C.A.T. members for an achievement, although you normally get a Game Over for doing so. | |

Dwindling Party | |
| Night Trap (Video Game) / int_ed68bcc9 | comment |
Dwindling Party: The number of NPC girls (and little boy in the 25th Anniversary Edition) that you have to rescue from the Augers starts to go down one by one after you save each one; there are four normal girls, Danny, and Kelly at the beginning of the game, but then after you rescue each guest from the Augers, they leave the house and you don't see them again for the rest of the game. Eventually Kelly is the only one left. | |

Product Placement: In the second part of the Kitchen area, some of the items on the grocery bags and boxes Ashley, Cindy and Lisa are holding include Life Cereal, Oreo Cookies, Ritz Crackers, Green Giant Vegetables, Fritos Corn Chips, and Häagen-Dazs Ice Cream. In the third part, you can even see Danny sneak in and take a bite of an Oreo cookie before attempting to open the wine cellar door. The opening to the Control-Vision and remastered games has the S.C.A.T. agents drink Pepsi during the mission briefing. | |
