An Adventure Game released for the PlayStation 2 by Konami in 2001, and titled Shadow of Memories originally and outside of the US. It was later ported to the PC, Xbox, and eventually the PSP.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_content_3'); })The main character of the game is Eike Kusch, a young man who is murdered during the game's first cutscene. Pretty short game? Well, not really — Eike is promptly revived by a being called Homunculus, who offers him the chance to change his fate. Eike, naturally enough, accepts. However, the killer isn't going to be put off by being thwarted just once. If Eike wants to live, he'll have to find the real reason someone's out for his blood, which may be rooted deeper in history than he can imagine.The game soon falls into a pattern: Eike is killed at the beginning of a level, revived, and then must travel into the past in order to prevent his death from occurring. The plot, however, swiftly becomes very complicated, as details about the reason for Eike's deaths, the possible identities of his killer, and the Homunculus's true motives are brought into play. The choices the player makes over the course of the game retroactively decide Eike's true origin and nature, and determine which of the six possible endings will be shown. Another two endings become available once the first six have been completed.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_content_2'); }) | |

Artificial Human: Homunculus. Or so we are led to believe. | |

Ambiguous Gender: Homunculus. He's referred to as male and has a male voice, but you'd be forgiven for thinking he was a girl. | |

Affably Evil: Homunculus - he's polite and doesn't really do anything evil (with the notable exception of kidnapping people and having them sent into different points in time), but he often leaves disconcerting messages to Eike. Also, his plan isn't as bad as you would think - he just wants to ensure that he isn't Ret Goned from existence. He's even friendly and chatty with Eike at points, though his default reaction to finding out Eike has been killed and having to pull his soul out of the time stream hovers somewhere between polite amusement and mild exasperation that Eike's taking a while to figure out how to escape death. About the evilest things he does involve killing the doctor or Hugo in two different endings, though Wagner betrayed him and Hugo was trying to kill him. And of course there's the little detail that he owns Eike's soul. The doctor sold his soul to Homunculus for eternal youth and became Eike. It's why he can continually be brought back. To add on to the politeness, in one of the endings Homunculus only needs to collect the digipad from Eike to wrap up his plan, instead of just taking it he even reminds Eike beforehand that he's forgotten to return someone to their own time and lets him do so if he wants. | |
