Puppeteer is a side-scrolling platformer for the PlayStation 3. Puppeteer takes place in a magical puppet theatre, owned and run by the slightly eccentric but thoroughly charming Professor Gregorious T. Oswald. His latest production is the weirdly titled “The Perilous Journey of a Boy Named Kutaro.�On one dark, moonlit night, the star of the show, a young boy named Kutaro, is carried away by the maleficent Moon Bear King to a black castle, where the unlucky lad is transformed into a puppet. Kutaro then displeases the terrible tyrant, who duly devours the boy’s wooden head and casts away his body. But the headless hero is not alone, for he discovers a very special pair of magic scissors, which will help him on his harrowing quest to find his head -— and his way home.Unlike most games where you move through the world, the world of Puppeteer actually moves around you, with all the action taking place on the same stage. The sets are continually moving and changing, taking you on an adventure with surprises in every scene.

Fantastic Light Source: The Snackerbosk forest uses both fireflies and pumpkins as sources of light in an otherwise pitch-black forest. The fireflies also double as a safeguard against the wandering ghosts.

Legendary Carp: In "Act 2-chapter 1", when wearing the koi head it can summon a koi that takes Kutaro to a bonus level. That’s not enough you assume, well, what if we were to tell you that when Kutaro use the dragon head, it turns the koi into a golden dragon.

The Chosen One
 Puppeteer (2013) (Video Game) / int_89631688
comment
The Chosen One: Subverted; Ezma went through a LOT of "chosen ones" until Kutaro happened to get past the staircase of violent death. It helps that he had the unique ability to get up to three health points (and regenerate these), but other than that he's just a normal kid. The main difference comes down to Kutaro having the good luck to make his attempt on the same night the Moon Bear King's forces captured Pikarina, the Sun Princess, leading to the tyrant being preoccupied transforming her into a pixie and imprisoning her, leaving the vault containing Calibrus unlocked for Kutaro to sneak in and become its chosen wielder. Even then, it's implied Calibrus simply took the first opportunity it had to leave its imprisonment with a suitable wielder, rather than any grand destiny of Kutaro's, though over the course of his journey he eventually becomes the chosen hero of the moon through his deeds.

Cool Sword: By appearances when closed, the magical pair of scissors Calibrus. Wielded like one it's more like a blunt instrument. Still excellent for cutting though.

Born Lucky: The main difference with Kutaro's attempt to steal Calibrus succeeding where so many other children had failed comes down to him having an immensely lucky break, as he manages to navigate the staircase of violent death to reach the vault on the same night the Moon Bear King's forces captured the Sun Princess, Pikarina, and brought her before the tyrant. Whilst he's preoccupied with transforming her with his magic, he forgets to lock the heavily-sealed vault door behind him, allowing Kutaro to sneak in and reach Calibrus. His good nature also allows him to be deemed worthy of wielding the legendary scissors against the Moon Bear King's forces, something Esma Potts hadn't expected, planning on using him as little more than a Macguffin Delivery Service. Ying Yang Lampshades Kutaro's great fortune when they enter the vault.

comment
Forced Transformation: Bugging the Witch during tutorial segments will make her turn the current companion into a creature or object related to the current events, such as turning Ying Yang into a carrot, or Pikarina into a parrot. The Witch herself is actually the Moon Goddess turned into an ugly form by the breaking of the White Moon Crystal.

Shout-Out: All of the trophies you get for defeating bosses are named after theatrical plays. In no particular order, you have Death Of A Sales Man, A Streetcar Named Desire, The Taming of the Shrew, The Odd Couple, Fiddler on the Roof, Bye Bye Birdie, Long Day's Journey Into Night, Much Ado About Nothing, A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to the Forum, La Cage aux folles, The Iceman Cometh, Cat on a Hot Tin Roof, and Orpheus Desending. The Robo Crab boss fight references plenty of robot and Sci-Fi shows, and even the infamous Giant Enemy Crab. In Act 4, Curtain 2, Kutaro and Pikarina discover a wanted poster for Kutaro with a lot of zeros on it. Pikarina says that Kutaro must be infamous, to which Kutaro responds by shooting red lighting out of Calibrus, evoking inFAMOUS.

Killed Off for Real
 Puppeteer (2013) (Video Game) / int_cda501da
comment
Killed Off for Real: All 12 of the generals are killed. General Rat gets strangled, General Dragon gets cut to pieces, General Monkey gets lost in space and so on and so on. Possibly averted since every general is seen during the ending credits. Since every character is an actor, it's possible that their deaths were just for the story and not intended to be real. It's also possible that while the bosses fought may be dead, the child versions of them might have survived, since Little Bear lives while Moon Bear King dies. We just never actually see them.

Laser-Guided Amnesia: When the Moon Bear King shattered the Light Moon Stone, not only did it rob the Moon Goddess of her divinity and beauty, but it also wiped her memories of her previous identity. For three years, she believed she was but an ugly, old witch named Ezma Potts, and isn't until Kutaro and Pikarina reassemble the Light Moon Stone that her memories (along with her true form) come back to her.

Downer Beginning

Downer Beginning: First, Kutaro has his soul snatched from his sleeping body and forcibly dragged to the Moon realm against his will. Then he's sealed into the body of a wooden puppet in the grip of the temperamental Moon Bear King. Then the King rips off his head and swallows it when he disbelieves the boy's frantic agreements to be his friend, tossing his still-animate headless body into the depths of his castle prison without further regard for him. (In gameplay terms, this means the player gains control of Kutaro one hit point away from dying). Then Kutaro is offered aid and guidance on controlling and using his new body, only to effectively be sent off on a suicide mission to steal a highly-valuable and prized possession of the insane tyrant who just maimed him by a witch who makes it clear she doesn't care much for his well-being and an old cat who makes it clear he has no faith in him succeeding in the task given how many similar children she's thrown against it already. Thankfully, once Kutaro actually makes it to the vault, his luck begins to turn around and he becomes Calibrus' chosen wielder, enabling him to start fighting back against the Moon Bear King's forces and changing the world around him for the better.
