The Suffering is a horror series created in 2004 by Surreal Software, also known for the Drakan games, and published by Midway. The player controls a man named Torque who was accused and convicted of murdering his wife and children in cold blood — the case was quick, as Torque's only defense was that he couldn't remember anything. Thus, Torque gets shipped off to Carnate Island. The days go along swimmingly until Torque moves in.Then it all goes to Hell.First, it was just an earthquake. Then, slowly, Torque's fellow prisoners are killed one by one in increasingly disgusting-sounding ways. A monster whizzes past Torque's cell, which opens slowly, setting him free. And thus, Torque steps forward into the halls of the Abbott Penitentiary, where prison is, quite literally, hell. Along the way, Torque finds himself in the company of an insane doctor with a more-than-professional interest in his condition, a vicious prisoner who killed his wife on a conjugal visit and took the chair, and an executioner with a particular glee in his work and eager to see Torque's blood shed. All three inflict their own unique tortures on him. It's up to the player to decide how to handle all of this: with compassion or with violence.That is the internal battle, the fight to define Torque's mind. Of more immediate concern are the "Malefactors," the hideous monsters that spring from Carnate's soil and represent all the horror that has occurred on the island. You see, Carnate has a long and storied history with the worst aspects of the human condition. Over the centuries, period-specific sadism has soaked the island's soil with blood. As many have discovered, Carnate has become a manifestation of evil, drawing out of the violence and hatred from all who step foot on the island. And now, Carnate wants Torque to become its newest spokesman.One perk of the game is its unique brand of horror, effortlessly mixing Psychological Horror with physical horror while keeping the bona-fide badass Torque gunning and running, and never once feeling dissonant about it.A sequel, The Suffering: Ties That Bind, was released in '06. It picks up with Torque returning to Baltimore and finding out that Malefactors have somehow gotten there too. He has to fight his way through the situation and get to the bottom of it, while simultaneously dealing with the past (specifically, his family's murder).After a long time being out of print, both the original game and the sequel were re-released on GOG.com in September 2017.Worth noting that Stan Winston, master of monsters himself, not only helped designed the creatures but also hoped to create a feature film version. Alas, thanks to the losses of both him and Midway, this never came to be

Does This Remind You of Anything?
 The Suffering (Video Game) / int_14ed6ab7
comment
Does This Remind You of Anything?: Hermes is basically one giant reference to the Holocaust. A sadistic prison guard who enjoyed killing people while justifying it that he was just following orders and who loved using gas more than anything. Hell, his boss fight ends when you put him in an oven. The premise of the game is one big metaphor for criminal recidivism, especially if Torque chooses the good morality choices. If the player chooses the "good" choices, Torque is revealed to have been framed and his rescuer tells him that he has a chance of a retrial so he can clear his name because the prosecutor is being indicted. If the player gets the bad ending, Torque is revealed to be guilty as charged and becomes a monster who kills his rescuer before running away into the woods. Horace Gauge, one of the ghosts of Carnate Island, blames the justice system for his wife's death because they chose to send him to a prison full of people who were far worse than him, rather than help rehabilitate him (even stating that he was imprisoned over an assault charge that was implied to have been done in self-defense given how much he insists that he would kill a man out of love for his wife). The failure of the justice system caused him to snap from fear and believe his wife will die without his protection. The release of the Malefactors is a visual metaphor for this, as they were released when a person of true moral conflict comes into a place of pure evil, which includes sending an innocent man to an extremely dangerous, maximum-security prison called Abbott State Penitentiary.

Sinister Shiv: Torque's first weapon in the first game is a shiv which he grabbed from the corpse of a fellow inmate, very fitting considering the setting. His idle animation with it equipped has him testing out his sharpness on his palms.

Multiple Endings
 The Suffering (Video Game) / int_1aa08f77
comment
Multiple Endings: Depending on whether you were a sinner, a saint, or somewhere in between, the truth behind the death of Torque's family changes. It even zigzags for each variant. Ended the first game neutral, ended the second game good? Your son was pumped up on drugs given to him by Blackmore, and you did accidentally kill your wife, as opposed to the "normal" neutral ending, in which Torque's abuse of his son caused him to commit murder-suicide and he beat his wife to death in anger. And so on. A letter from Torque's late wife, how she viewed her life with him before his first arrest prior to the story, depends on how you end the game. Ended the game good, she didn't want the rest of the family to be separated for too long. Ended bad, she claims they were better off without him.

Ambiguous Situation
 The Suffering (Video Game) / int_1f6983f7
comment
Ambiguous Situation: Torque's situation in the good karma ending of Ties That Bind is very...odd. Carmen remarks that she wants her and Torque to never be apart again, then they hug. Given that Carmen is dead and that Torque just killed his alternate personality, it's entirely possible that he actually killed himself in the final boss fight.

Good Is Not Nice
 The Suffering (Video Game) / int_21f3aa44
comment
Good Is Not Nice: The surviving Corrections Officers that you meet are much ruder to you than the surviving convicts. This may be because you may have killed your wife and kids. The Head C.O. and Ernesto are two noteworthy examples, as they become Torque's allies out of necessity rather than liking you personally, but they can develop a grudging respect towards you if you help them. With all the monsters infesting the island, even they know they can't be picky with their allies.

Death of a Child
 The Suffering (Video Game) / int_269e82c1
comment
Death of a Child: The murder of two children is a crucial backstory event that colours all the events in the series. Also, the Infernas in the first game are ghosts who represent the petty cruelty children can commit, and have to be slain in order to progress (although thankfully not while in their ghostly Undead Child form). In the second game, there is a sequence involving a baby mentioned below, which is in some ways the most unsettling part of the game.

You have the option to do this once in the first game, to a guard who's still alive despite most of his flesh being eaten by rats. Doing so nets you good points on the Karma Meter; your wife even chimes in and tells you that you did the right thing.

 The Suffering (Video Game) / int_2bdae2ae
comment
Awesome, but Impractical: Berserk mode in the first game, especially if you're going for a good karma run. Its attacks are very powerful, but you cannot heal during it, it counts as an evil action, and NPCs you have to escort tend to get caught up in its attacks. Ties That Bind altered this so that berserk Mode no longer counts as an evil action and is actually changed/upgraded by your karma level, but NPCs remain just as dumb, so it must be used very carefully.

Enemy Within: Torque can transform into a Malefactor himself to utterly tear things to shreds. If you're good, it's just Torque on an adrenaline rush. If you're neutral or bad, it's ambiguous if you actually change. In the second game, the Big Bad of it all turns out to be Blackmore, a split personality. It's theorized that the monstrosities that appear are basically this to an entire city or location that's gathered enough sins.

Even Evil Has Standards: In the first game's prologue "Waiting To Die", a couple of inmates recognize Torque and remember that he's in prison for killing his wife and kids. This disgusts them so much, they try to shank Torque, which results in Torque going berserk and killing them in self-defense. Then there's the other death row inmates in Torque's wing; Slick may give Torque a pass for killing his wife, but draws the line at kids, and all of them show a distinct hatred for Floyd, a pedophile.

Humans Are the Real Monsters
 The Suffering (Video Game) / int_4ac8b81f
comment
Humans Are the Real Monsters: Malefactors are made from human sins and cruelty, but the biggest threat are other humans, ranging from the Foundation to prisoners; the bosses tend not to be monsters, but humans, living or otherwise. One mook in the second game recognizes this — there's far, far too many human sins, and thus, unlimited demons.

Shock and Awe: Horace's method of execution was the electric chair, and thus has the powers of electricity as a ghost. Though these are mostly confined to simply causing some fireworks and travelling around in power boxes, later in the game Horace blows open a latched-shut cell door with his electricity.

Had to Come to Prison to Be a Crook
 The Suffering (Video Game) / int_4de1544
comment
The premise of the game is one big metaphor for criminal recidivism, especially if Torque chooses the good morality choices. If the player chooses the "good" choices, Torque is revealed to have been framed and his rescuer tells him that he has a chance of a retrial so he can clear his name because the prosecutor is being indicted. If the player gets the bad ending, Torque is revealed to be guilty as charged and becomes a monster who kills his rescuer before running away into the woods. Horace Gauge, one of the ghosts of Carnate Island, blames the justice system for his wife's death because they chose to send him to a prison full of people who were far worse than him, rather than help rehabilitate him (even stating that he was imprisoned over an assault charge that was implied to have been done in self-defense given how much he insists that he would kill a man out of love for his wife). The failure of the justice system caused him to snap from fear and believe his wife will die without his protection. The release of the Malefactors is a visual metaphor for this, as they were released when a person of true moral conflict comes into a place of pure evil, which includes sending an innocent man to an extremely dangerous, maximum-security prison called Abbott State Penitentiary.

The Killer Becomes the Killed: Hermes is a very interesting take on this. As a prison executioner, he made an entire career murdering people in different ways, but he stated that, out of all the psychopaths who applied for the job, he was the only one focused enough to get it. In fact, he was so focused that he gassed himself in the chamber, just to have knowledge of both sides of the "experience".

Guns Akimbo: In the first game, Torque can dual wield revolvers; the manual lampshades the impracticality of it by pointing out that while doing this may look cool, it makes you less accurate. That said, some things are big enough that you don't need good aim. Ties That Bind expands Torque's arsenal and gives him more firearms to dual wield (mostly small arms or handgun-sized guns). Torque even has a unique pickup animation when picking up a similar gun to the one he already had.

It's implied that any place that has enough evil in its past can become this sort of malevolent Genius Loci, and begin spawning Malefactors representing the sins that brought it to this state. It's further implied that everywhere actually has enough evil for this — you just have to look to discover it. One document in the second game reveals that Malefactors have been seen in a few other places, and records of them go back decades.

Enemy Mine: Twice in the first game, once in the second. In the first, COs team up with the prisoner Torque in order to fight their way out through a part of the level. In the second, Jordan of the Foundation teams up with Torque when the Malefactors really get thick. Except she still wants to kill you. Whoops. If you've been going the Evil route, she does genuinely team up with you. But if you don't end up killing her, she gets captured by The Creeper and you get good karma.

Cosmic Horror Story: Dialogue from a CO in the first game invokes this, as he details how desperately he tried to search for any sort of answer as to what's happening but ultimately finds nothing. He ultimately blows his head off after this admission and also after admitting he's cornered. Torque later finds a CO with his head missing, next to a radio and a shotgun, implying this to be the same guard.

Prison Rape
 The Suffering (Video Game) / int_758c3034
comment
Prison Rape: Surprisingly (but thankfully) averted. Despite the pitch-black atmosphere of the series and their portrayal of the horrors of urban society, rape has gone absolutely untouched. In fact, the only sexual situation glossed over at all is Horace murdering his wife after he has sex with her. In the first game, there's a shower room where you can notice a bar of soap on the floor… With some blood. While the subject of prison rape is untouched, there is a child rapist on Death Row in the original game, and Ties that Bind gave us the Creeper.

He did say that he was handling the first couple waves of monsters sent at him just fine, but he would not have won against the last wave without taking extreme measures. Hmm...

Good Angel, Bad Angel: A variation is used.

The sequel has Carmen act as the shoulder angel and Blackmore act as the shoulder devil. In both games, they do not actually appear at Torque's side at these points, but their voices can be heard.

Homemade Flamethrower
 The Suffering (Video Game) / int_8dff5979
comment
Homemade Flamethrower: One of the weapons in the first game, is a homemade flamethrower◊ that needs to be assembled from different parts like a bicycle pump, gas cans, and flares. You can find the instructions that tell you what you'll need, although they are not necessary for creating one. Judging by the instructions and how it was seen next to the corpse of a prisoner, it seems it was going to be used for rioting or escaping the prison.

Giant Space Flea from Nowhere: The Horde from Ties That Bind. One minute, you're preparing to enter a mysterious glowing portal in the floor in the middle of the prison which, according to your wife's ghost, will take you to Blackmore's drowning pool. Then this humongous, nightmarish worm-thing emerges from the gate, smashes a chopper, and proceeds to attack you in the following battle.

comment
Children Are Innocent: The backstory for the Infernas is a horrific aversion; they were originally three little girls who lived in a Puritan village founded on Carnate Island, who decided it would be super-fun to start accusing people of being witches. The resultant trials and hysteria, naturally, got about thirteen people burned as witches. The guilt of what they had done drove them over the edge, and so they leapt off of a cliff to their death.

Rule of Symbolism: Every single enemy in the game is representative of a method of execution or an urban horror/vice. The Slayer represents beheading and blade-related violence. The Mainliner represents death by lethal injection and aggressive drug dealing. The Marksman represents death by firing squad and gun violence. The Burrower represents being buried alive. The Nooseman represents death by hanging, both execution and suicide. The Fester represents being devoured alive by rats. The Suppressor represents police brutality. The Arsonist represents being burned alive and other acts of arson.

Evil Is Easy
 The Suffering (Video Game) / int_9492d6a5
comment
Evil Is Easy: Technically, apathy is the easiest path. It's a lot easier to let your companions die in battle without meaning to. Evil is second, since sometimes it might seem worthwhile to just kill your companions rather than waste time covering for them. Good is by far the hardest, because your companions, though fairly competent fighters, simply aren't up to the challenge of surviving.

Difficult, but Awesome: The axe takes longer to swing than the shiv and leaves you vulnerable to being hit before you can follow through, but with careful timing, it lets you stun-juggle nearly any enemy in the game with no fear of retaliation.

Boring Yet Practical: In the first game, your trusty shiv (and later axe) will not only kill most enemies fairly easily, but stun them so as to prevent reprisal while you're doing it. Even on the hardest difficulty, they still serve as the most efficient way to deal with at least half of the monsters. (Anything that can shoot back, unless it's alone, should be responded to in kind.)

The neutral one? Torque accidentally killed his wife, and his elder son finds out, intentionally drowning his little brother before committing suicide.

Retcon: The good karma ending of the first game revealed that Torque was innocent of his family's murders. But the second game revealed that, no, he wasn't. He, in his Blackmore persona, was the one who sent the thugs to intimidate Carmen, which resulted in her and the boys' deaths. Though part of its own good karma ending explains that Blackmore never intended for them to get killed, and was angered that the thugs misunderstood his orders. The first game also heavily implied that the reason why Torque's family was murdered in the good ending was because of something he did in the Special Forces, with the second game whitewashing it with a simple throwaway line of giving Blackmore the nickname the Colonel, that is used all of once in the game.

Too Dumb to Live: The Coast Guardsman who comes to rescue Torque at the end of the first game. Despite being sent to rescue inmates from the worst prison in America, he isn't armed and doesn't have any police backup, apparently just hoping his threat that the police are waiting on the mainland will be enough to hold off murderers and rapists. In the neutral ending, he even lets Torque stand behind him, with the heavily armed Torque immediately knocking him out and stealing his boat to escape the authorities.

Bald of Authority: Blackmore is essentially the leader guy of crime in Baltimore (and who knows what else). However, it turns out that Blackmore is a personality that exists only in Torque's head. Torque is certainly not bald. In fact, a picture of Blackmore from Jordan's point of view shows Torque wearing a cowboy hat. Interestingly enough, the first game had a cut-out prologue that showed Torque wearing a cowboy hat, which falls off when he turns into a monster. He does not put it back on. Is this Fridge Brilliance or what?

Shout-Out: Usually, picking up a phone when it's not ringing does nothing. If you happen to pick up one phone late in the game, though, a girl informs you that you will die in seven days. Horace shares a name with another character who was executed by electricity. The phone mechanic returns in Ties That Bind, and more than half of Blackmore's lines through them are lyrics to various heavy metal songs. The Slayers bear strong resemblance to the Cenobites from Hellraiser, and the Mainliners aren't far behind them. In Ties that Bind, Malcolm's line while Torque has visions of his family's drowned corpses.

Maybe Magic, Maybe Mundane: It's not quite clear whether or not Torque actually transforms into a creature while in berserk mode. Dr. Killjoy's analysis in the first game says that he doesn't, it's merely a combination of Torque's rage and imagination. However, NPC comments in both games imply that Torque really does transform into something. Dr. Killjoy, Horace, and Hermes are all definitely real. It's more ambiguous whether Torque brought the ghosts of his family with him to Carnate, or if their appearance is Torque working through his grief… and possible guilt.

Epileptic Trees: In-universe: Nobody knows for sure what causes the disaster, but there sure are a hell of a lot of people theorizing about it. Prisoners blame the guards, guards blame the prisoners, maybe it's magic, maybe it's the end of the world, maybe it's the result of hallucinogens being released, maybe it's all in some way related to Torque himself (just as hell breaks loose, a voice does say "been waiting for you" as he arrives), maybe it's all in Torque's mind — and we never find out for sure.

Unholy Ground
 The Suffering (Video Game) / int_cd365139
comment
Unholy Ground: It is implied that Carnate Island is an inherently cursed settlement — the various disasters and lapses in human decency being the island's attempt to get rid of the humans that settle there — and that the Malefactors are the Island's last resort in doing so. The same could be the case for Baltimore.

Escort Mission
 The Suffering (Video Game) / int_cfda0ecb
comment
Escort Mission: Several in each game, but all are entirely optional. When you meet up with a fellow survivor, you can either help them fight through the monsters to a "safe" location where they can escape/hide, kill them yourself, or just ignore them and let the monsters eat them. Most are actually rather tough and can hold their own in a fight if you lend a hand, but some (particularly the unarmed junkie and the Warden's son in the second game) have a tendency to die fairly quickly unless you're really good at protecting them. There's two really annoying ones in the first game. Torque's friend from another prison has to be carried over several areas, including a huge choke point with lots of enemies in close quarters. The guard in the final stretch is also hard to do, since there's plenty of enemies and the deadly Infernas.

Lethal Joke Item: The first game has the hidden weapon, the Gonzogun. It's a chicken (and a Shout-Out to The Muppets). It shoots eggs out its rear. It's also ridiculously broken, able to take down most enemies in one or two shots. The only downside is the incredibly limited ammo.

Miscarriage of Justice

comment
Miscarriage of Justice: During WWII, a general at Fort Maleson executed three of his men for treason after a German airplane crashed into the island. A subsequent court martial found no evidence justifying his accusations. In the Good Ending, the guy who comes to rescue Torque from the island tells him the prosecutor at his trial for triple murder was found to be corrupt and that said prosecutor's cases were going to be up for review.

Who Forgot The Lights?: It's kind enough to let you set the brightness yourself. But since it's a horror game, it shows you a static image and tells you to make it just barely visible. The end result is dim, eerie lighting, perfect for a fright.

Mercy Kill: You have the option to do this once in the first game, to a guard who's still alive despite most of his flesh being eaten by rats. Doing so nets you good points on the Karma Meter; your wife even chimes in and tells you that you did the right thing. This also happens in the second game, but the guy you'd do it to ends up dying anyway when a boss comes out of a nearby hole, knocking a large crate into the area where he was sitting.

Turns out when you do finally check it out, the baby actually isn't there...

comment
Abominable Auditorium: Early in Ties That Bind, Torque is led into the Grand Theater, a derelict cinema in the slums of Baltimore. It was obviously in pretty bad shape even before the Malefactors took over the city: the place is littered with rubbish, the seats have been removed from the theater itself, and it's obviously been converted into a den for homeless drug addicts — most of whom have been butchered in the last few hours. Dr Killjoy uses this place as a briefing room for Torque, keeping it relatively safe... up until Blackmore appears and sends in the Malefactors to make Torque manifest his rage form again.
