Visionary Villain: According to the second game, the chairman of Deucalion Group, Virgil, have deduced that his ADAMs are the better lifeforms than humans, added a secret purpose to the Purgatory tower to help them develop self-awareness. In case they grow conscious like Captain Gram, the AI manager Deucalion would unleash them to the world. Ironically, Gram Was Once a Man and escapes himself after humanity have long went extinct.

Amnesiac Hero: The ADAM protagonist of the second game has pieces of Captain Gram's memories, and is looking for the rest of them. Turns out Gram and the floor bosses were human mercenaries and victims of being consumed by nanomachines with a side-effect of Brain Uploading into brand-new ADAM units, and this tower was designed by Beatrice to hopefully trigger flashbacks from him.

Divided We Fall: In the past, Mars got killed by overusing own AI Suit, Lycaon got burned alive by Gryphus and Minos out of Revenge went against Gryphus alone, thus Gryphus getting 4 AI Cells. It was proposed by Statius and Sphinx to do the same and fight him with 5 AI Cell Suits versus 4, though of course they wouldn't wait for consensus. In the end Gryphus managed to get all AI Cells with Gram finally killing him before dying himself.

comment
Grew Beyond Their Programming: The protagonist android of the first game has developed an ego after all the fighting and decided he had enough of it. Captain Gram stands out as being capable of emotions while ADAMs are believed to retain no thought process that isn't useful for combat. One of the first signs of it is checking the sky for no specific purpose. Him having human memories would explain it. Minos in the first game, unlike other bosses, shows sign of own will, though is compelled to continue fighting due to the programming. During the second ascension Deucalion takes over him to remove the "programming flaw". In both games it turns out Gryphus is Not Brainwashed. In the first game he acts as Deucalion's bodyguard becuase there's nothing left for them outside, while in the second game he has regained his human memories of Gram's traitorous teammate and chose to wait for him instead of leaving himself For the Evulz.

Virgil, the chairman of the Deucalion, seeing it as a symbol of strength, has created the ADAMs based of his AI data to finish the war, but Beatrice has removed his memories from the template for personal reasons. After his revival, the way he is identified is by having an unparalleled combat skill.

Zero-Effort Boss: AI Deucalion is the last enemy in the second game, but it doesn't attack. It calls Gram a War God and hopes he enjoys fighting forever, with a teleporter to return to the game. Alternatively, if you attack it, it dies in a couple of hits and shows the ending cutscene.

Jigsaw Puzzle Plot

comment
Jigsaw Puzzle Plot: The game manuals only provide the basic summary, while the rest of the story is told by bosses and post-floor cutscenes one at a time. While the plot of the first game is still minimalistic, in the second game many named characters have a lot to say about how the Tower came to be.

Humanity's Wake: Statius in both games drops that there are no spectators, humanity have died out ages ago and the Purgatory remained automated. ADAMs are fighting for literally no reason, but can't go against the programming. In the second game Beatrice says she and Gram are the only "souls" left on the planet.

It's also training the ultimate fighting machine when there's nobody else to fight, and keeps Gryphus as her guardian. In the second game the last enemy is also Deucalion, further elaborated as being instructed by Virgil to make ADAMs turn on humans when they prove to have grown a will of their own.

Greater-Scope Villain: It's heavily implied that Virgil of Deucalion Group deliberataly gave Captain Gram's squad AI Suits that are easy to oveheat, so when someone eventually dies they would start fighting each other out of paranoia and provide him with better combat data. It's also unclear where did Gryphus get the idea that looting his squad memebers for AI Cells can make yourself stronger, since the squad wasn't told this. Later, seeing how much better the natural data is compared to previous androids, Virgil secretly installs an overseer program to keep Rengoku on a loop until ADAMs start thinking like humans and eventually replace them.

But, becuase he has lost his memories, in order to help him recover, she has ressurected his comrades as ADAMs as well. And made Gram kill them all, which turned into a convinient chance to give him closure for the past incident. He tells her they all should have just stayed dead and attacks her hologram.

All for Nothing: Purgatory has no spectators, they've went extinct centuries ago. So all ADAMs are fighting each other simply becuase they don't or can't question the program. Virgil wanted his ADAMs to replace humanity and has waited for them to grow self-conscious. Humans eventually went extinct for unknown reasons regardless, while the ADAM units got forever stuck in the tower, failing to grow. The only ones with their own ego turned out to originally be humans with amnesia.

Accidental Hero: Virgil has created ADAMs based on Captain Gram's memories. Beatrice, who was in love with Gram, has tampered with the uploading to remove his personality so there wouldn't be thousands of Grams and left only combat data. It turns out Virgil had a secondary plan to turn ADAMs into the new master race and needed them to develop consciousness. So while he was able to end the Machine War, Beatrice unwittingly made it so he was unable to start the new one against mankind.

Depending on if the player has any backup set of weapons, it may be a challenge to not only progress through the floor, but also getting the old gear back. Played straight with HEAVEN challenges in the second game, which use a separate inventory. On Meltdown, HEAVEN-A puts you 4 floors below, while HEAVEN-B and HEAVEN-C kick you out enitrely.

Launcher Move: Using a grapling weapon throws an opponent upwards. Using two graple weapons lets you make the opponent unable to do anything.

Starter Equipment: Without weapons, the player can still be a Bare-Fisted Monk, just with very low attack and defense.

comment
Seeks Another's Resurrection: ADAMs normally have no personality or distinctive characteristics, so when the deceased Captain Gram's memories were discovered in ADAM prototypes, Beatrice tried everything to restore him the way he was.

Training from Hell: Defeated ADAMs in the second game are said to be put into a Program, a combat simulator after which they either return stronger or have an "AI breakdown".

Whole-Plot Reference: The second game is heavily inspired by The Divine Comedy, with the hero going through the "seven circles of hell" before reaching "Heaven", with Beatrice and Virgil as important characters. The strongest sword in the game is called Dante.

Walking Armory: Stronger ADAMs are normally equipped with blades, rockets, and lasers at the same time. The game heavily encourages mixing weapon types and categories.

One-Steve Limit: Averted, the default name of both protagonists is Gram, but they have separate backgrounds and both can be renamed. Bosses also share names across games, but are unlikely to be the same.

 Rengoku (Video Game) / int_fdad625e
comment
Was Once a Man: The flashbacks show that the ADAM bosses in the second game were human mercenaries of Captain Gram's squad with a strong bond. They were once given "AI cell suits" by Deucalion for "testing", and were told they just have good shock-absorbtion. Mars got consumed by it, while Gryphus has killed Lycaon and Minos for power. The others have killed each other thinking they can counter Gryphus and eventually he got 8 cells, but was shot by transformed Gram. And now all of them are ADAMs.
