Earn Your Bad Ending: To get the Missing Journalist ending, the player usually has to find at least 80% of all clues and keys since they need to access the church attic. A good ending can be had by solving about 50% of the clues. See Sequence Breaking for details. |

Unexpected Gameplay Change: The game is a calm, if scary, walking simulator. Once the player listened to the audio tape in the church attic though, the game changes to being chased by the killer and having to follow a ghost along a very specific route to escape. |

Cruel and Unusual Death |
| | The Painscreek Killings (Video Game) / int_1e584efa |
comment |
Cruel and Unusual Death: All deaths in this town are very gruesome. Vivian Roberts got an axe to her forehead. Henry Johnson got an axe to the head, then was put into a car that got dumped into the river. Andrew Reed got his lung punctured by a knife, then had his house set on fire with him in it. Magdalena Roberts got poisoned by heart medication overdose, leading to a fatal heart attack. Scott Brooks got stabbed multiple times. Sofia Miller had her head crash against a well, breaking her neck. Trisha Roberts threw herself off the hospital roof. Matthew Brooks accidentally ran off the hospital roof. It can also be assumed that Steve Moss died of "axe to face". |

Disposing of a Body: Four obvious cases. Sofia Miller got thrown into the well that killed her, though her son later found and buried her properly on the cemetery. Henry Johnson was put into a car and the car sunk into the river. It took about two weeks until a diver found it by accident. Scott Brooks was hidden in a bush at the border of town, though he was easily found by a passing jogger. By the end of the game, it is still unclear what happened to Steve Moss. |

Stay quiet, get a lawyer to defend his son and after the kid gets murdered due to not being prosecuted, the only bit of former love for his son that shines through is that he tries to frame his son's murderer for his crimes. |

It's All My Fault: Charles Roberts confesses to feel this way in his last diary entries. While not thinking it is ONLY his fault, Andrew Reeks is definitely feeling extremely guilty for both Sofia Miller's death and covering up her disappearance. Interestingly, neither Matthew Brooks nor Vivian Roberts nor Henry Johnson ever express honest guilt for the deaths they caused. |

The Reveal: Quite a few reveals. Scott and Trisha are half-siblings. Derrick could have given Scott the perfect alibi but didn't, leading to Scott being murdered. Bernard had a crush on Vivian and killed Scott. Sofia is the biological mother of Scott and has been murdered shortly after his birth. Matthew is the Painscreek killer. |

Guide Dang It!: Some letters and/or keys are incredibly difficult to find. Considering that most walkthroughs only give hints, stuck players are often struggling quite a lot. Matthew's riddle, the cross "key" and the garden gate key are probably the worst offenders. Also the trick with Scott's secret passage and how to access the hospital basement. |

Trauma Conga Line: Trisha Roberts - out of all characters - suffers this the most. She is getting ignored by her parents, her best friend becomes dismissive, her mother is against her relationship with her boyfriend, her mother dies, her boyfriend is claimed to have killed her mother, her father stops her from meeting her boyfried, her boyfriend breaks up via letter without telling the reason and avoids her and - as the final cherry on the cake - her boyfriend gets brutally murdered on the street. It is little surprise that she ends up a mental wreck and finally suicidal. |

Downplayed with Charles. His actions (and inability to stand up for his family) are the source of all the misery in Painscreek, yet he's one of the few characters to walk away alive. However, after all the happens in the town, including the deaths of his wife, his legitimate daughter, his illegitimate son and his mother, it's doubtful that he escaped psychologically unscathed. We never really learn what became of him after Painscreek. |

Foreshadowing |
| | The Painscreek Killings (Video Game) / int_9d12bbc1 |
comment |
Foreshadowing: Since diaries and letters can be collected mostly in any order, it is possible to figure out major parts of the story quite early. It is possible to find quite early: the confession of Derrick, the knife of Bernard, the notes of Steve Moss and some revealing letters and diaries of Scott Brook. In the alibi paper, Derrick Tyler claims to have been with a friend, but never gave a contact number. Cause that friend didn't know he was there. The open bill for room 201 in Ann's Inn gives away that Steve Moss never returned from the hospital basement. When knowing that Vivian got killed via axe, then seeing the broken axe closet in Bernard Hopkin house shows that he is only a Red Herring. It's mentioned at the beginning that an anonymous source wants the paper to investigate the murder. Over the course of the game, the only person that a) has an interest in solving the murder, b) doesn't believe it was Scott Brooks and c) definitely leaves the town alive is: Dorothy Patterson. It's also quite easy to figure it out when comparing notes because the handwriting is the same. |

Karma Houdini: It is never mentioned, if Bernard Hopkin suffered for what he did. Downplayed with Charles. His actions (and inability to stand up for his family) are the source of all the misery in Painscreek, yet he's one of the few characters to walk away alive. However, after all the happens in the town, including the deaths of his wife, his legitimate daughter, his illegitimate son and his mother, it's doubtful that he escaped psychologically unscathed. We never really learn what became of him after Painscreek. |

Be Careful What You Wish For: Oh so much. Matthew Brooks wanted to find out what had happened to his love Sofia Miller, leading to the death of five people. Derrick Tyler wanted Scott gone so he has a chance with Trisha, leading to both dying and him being left alone. Magdalena Roberts wanted a grandson to continue the family line, pretty much being the catalyst for everything that goes wrong. Vivian Roberts wanted to make sure that no mistress or bastard child can inherit the Roberts fortune. Both she and Trisha die for it. |

Determinator |

comment |
Determinator: A few people show this quality. Scott Brooks stops at nothing once he realizes he could find out who his biological parents are. Vivian Roberts escaped poverty by this, she in fact even kills a woman to protect what is now hers. Matthew Brooks puts his entire savings into the defense of Scott Brooks. |

Check-Point Starvation |
| | The Painscreek Killings (Video Game) / int_f09021fe |
comment |
Checkpoint Starvation: The game only saves when entering a new area and the only way to save on purpose is by exiting the game. While this is fine in small areas like Dorothy's or Bernard's house, it can be incredibly frustrating in big ones like the hospital or the mansion. |

A Deadly Affair |

comment |
A Deadly Affair: Both Number 3 and possibly 6. Specifically, Vivian ends up killing Sofia and then has the baby disappear without regard to where. |

Never Found the Body: Poor Steve Moss... If it weren't for Scott Brooks, then this would have been Sofia Miller's fate as well. What happens in the Missing Journalist ending. |

Vigilante Execution: Bernard Hopkin decides this is the best way to deal with his grief over Vivian's death and stabs Scott Brooks multiple times despite the boy having been let go due to a lack of evidence. |

Dark Secret: Almost every single character in the game has one. The only persons that never did anything wrong are probably Oliver, Steve, Ann and Trisha. |

Sequence Breaking |
| | The Painscreek Killings (Video Game) / int_fb111d49 |
comment |
Sequence Breaking: It is possible to just guess the killer and weapon literally at the beginning of the game. It will consider it properly solved when at least 50% of all clues have been found, which still leaves most stories unresolved. |

You Killed My Father: Subverted. Scott Brooks never harms Vivian Roberts for having murdered his mother, he simply yells at her and then leaves to cry. His adopted father on the other hand... |
