The Croc Is Ticking: The Snipper reflexively snips his scissors when walking around, letting you know when he's nearby. | |

Shear Menace | |
| The Night Of The Scissors (Video Game) / int_3856d429 | comment |
Shear Menace: The Snipper attacks by stabbing with a pair of scissors. In the basement he's also set up a maze of scissors hanging by string from the ceiling which will make noise and summon him if you bump into one. | |

Bittersweet Ending | |
| The Night Of The Scissors (Video Game) / int_40cc0c7e | comment |
Bittersweet Ending: Adam manages to evade the Snipper and escape from the post office, but at the exit a body hanging from a noose is waiting for him, presumably that of Kevin. Also, the cops are outside waiting for him. At best he'll be arrested for trespassing, at worse they'll try to pin Kevin's death on him or even try to frame him as the Snipper to clear up their case log. | |

Wax Museum Morgue | |
| The Night Of The Scissors (Video Game) / int_4e03e262 | comment |
Wax Museum Morgue: Played with in that the Snipper constructs cardboard statues of his victims which he places around his lair to serve as his "friends". However, it seems likely the Snipper chops up the actual bodies, given the amount of gory body parts he has laying around. | |

The Stoner: Adam and Kevin certainly look the part, and are apparently looting the post office to make money to buy weed. | |

Retraux: The game controls like an old-school Survival Horror game, has VHS and CRT noise effects, and uses throwback graphics. | |

Offscreen Teleportation | |
| The Night Of The Scissors (Video Game) / int_c691d3f4 | comment |
Offscreen Teleportation: The Snipper doesn't roam the area all the time, instead every once in a while he'll pop out of a vent somewhere in the building, roam in the direction of your current location, and (if you manage to evade him by hiding in a closet, locker, etc.) eventually leaving via another vent. | |

Non-Action Guy | |
| The Night Of The Scissors (Video Game) / int_cc1bd54d | comment |
Non-Action Guy: Adam's a skinny stoner and in no shape to win a physical confrontation, even though the killer is just a regular guy armed with an ordinary pair of scissors, so his only option is to run away and hide whenever the Snipper appears. | |

Sequence Breaking | |
| The Night Of The Scissors (Video Game) / int_fb111d49 | comment |
Sequence Breaking: The combination to the safe in the customer support office is always the same, so once you know what it is you can open the safe at the very beginning of the game. This gets you to the key that unlocks the door to the key item you need to open the escape exit. However, this only saves you a few minutes of backtracking, as you still need to play through the game normally to reach said door. | |
