Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_content_3'); })"In a soulless world...its inhabitants spineless. Spoiled by a consumerist culture, and yet...lonely. This gives birth to frustration...and makes one even lonelier. The last friend remaining is...the cuddlytoy. These creatures can't defend themselves. They cannot run away. Insanity...is their only way of escape."Die Anstalt - Psychiatrie für misshandelte Kuscheltiere ("The Asylum - Psychiatric Clinic for Abused Cuddlytoys") is a German point-and-click game made in 2003. The player takes on the role of a psychiatrist treating plush toys that have been driven to mental disorders due to abuse by their owners. Gameplay consists of selecting a patient to treat and then selecting different treatments from a list on a clipboard. Choosing the right treatments at the right time is essential to win, although there are several that won't do any harm or help.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_content_2'); })The game started with only three patients, but has since expanded to six. The current list is as follows (in order of creation):Kroko: A paranoid crocodile with severe aquaphobia. He has a pillow for a Security Blanket.Lilo: A hippo with symptoms resembling autism. He never speaks, and spends all his time trying to solve a wooden puzzle.Dolly: A chronically depressed sheep who sometimes believes herself to be a wolf. She has fits of anger from time to time.Sly: A rattlesnake with severe ADD and delusions, who sometimes holds extended conversations with his rattle. Added in 2007.Dub: A hyperactive turtle who spends all his time jumping rope, stopping only to reset his stopwatch. Added in 2009.Dr. Wood: A raven who's a renowned psychiatric doctor and always carries around a notepad and pencil. Unlike the other patients, you actually start out as trying to converse with him on a professional level until it becomes clear that he has deep-seated psychological issues himself. Started in 2010, added completely in 2011.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_content_1'); })Based on posts on the corresponding Die Anstalt Facebook page, there may well be a seventh patient on the horizon, although since there has been no update as of 2016 it may be Vaporware.You can find the game online and for free here. | |

Scam Religion: After Dr Wood loses his grip on reality, he founds the Claw Association, and pretends to heal the other patients in exchange for their most precious items. | |

Chekhov's Gun | |
Die Anstalt (Video Game) / int_22cf536c | comment |
Chekhov's Gun: After Dr Wood's first foray into astral projection, you can see him trapped in a glass box way above the forest as he makes his way back◊ - something that will turn out to have caused his insecurities and narcissism in the first place. On a more general level, if there is something striking about the design of a character (for example, zips or a stomach pouch), you can bet it will come into play later in the therapy. The first "Professional Assistance" for Dr. Wood contains a large amount of Foreshadowing, including the line "Do not miss a demonstration of Dr. Wood's unique hypnosis technique". | |

All Psychology Is Freudian: Subverted. While the excuses themselves are indeed Freudian, more of an emphasis is placed on psychodynamic and biological psychology. Indeed, the "certain lopsidedness" of Dr Wood towards Freudian methods is one of the obstacles you need to get past in his therapy. | |

Lonely at the Top: Implied in Dr. Wood's case. One of his dreams has him rise up to the stars after gaining the other patients' attention, only to find out that it's cold and lonely there. The origin of his issues: being put on a high shelf, behind glass, forbidden to be touched. When healed, a child is pulling him about, and he is happy with the affection. | |

Die Anstalt (Video Game) / int_916c72b3 | comment |
Rule of Symbolism: Most of the dream sequences. For example, the silhouette of a faceless woman in Dub's dreams = CG Jung's metaphor for depression. Overlaps with Faux Symbolism when the symbols don't make much sense in the context of the story, like the yo-yos and the string tangled in the trees in Dolly's second dream. | |

Humans Are Cthulhu | |
Die Anstalt (Video Game) / int_98c2a8f2 | comment |
Humans Are Cthulhu: The driving force behind the patients' problems is abuse by their owners, although it's usually unintentional - Sly's owners are the only ones to do anything deliberately malicious to their toy, and even then hiding drugs in his tail for easy access probably seemed like a good idea at the time. Lilo is even reunited with his owner happily when he's cured. Notably, we seldom see an entire human from the patients' point of view, except for a somewhat eerie silhouette of a glasses-wearing girl. | |

Living Toys: Fluctuating between 2, 3 and 4 on the Sliding Scale. Apparently, whether or not the humans in the game acknowledge them as sentient objects depends on the "host consciousness" and how well it projects to the cuddly toy, dictated in a sliding scale of its own. Rough translation of the concept here. | |

Or Was It a Dream?: It is usually easy to tell when the game switches from reality to dream sequence, due to appropriate transitions and circle borders. However, Dr Wood's cultish takeover of the asylum in the middle of his therapy blurs the line between the two planes by not showing these indicators. | |

Abusive Parents: Rather, Abusive Owners. Three of the toys are subjected to this: Sly was used as a drug stash, and tossed out of a car when the cops pull them over. He's subsequently run over by another car. Dolly was used as a fetch toy for a large, scary dog. Kroko was used to mop a bathroom floor! | |

Timed Mission | |
Die Anstalt (Video Game) / int_bb48f8ba | comment |
Timed Mission: You only have a certain time frame to interact with Lilo while playing Tetris before he removes the game from the handheld, and to take Dub's timer away from him when he's unconscious. In stages 1, 4 and 5, Dr Wood is also not in any mood to be kept waiting, and will leave if you take too long. | |

Freudian Excuse | |
Die Anstalt (Video Game) / int_c868a42a | comment |
Freudian Excuse: Sort of the whole point. Averted with Sly, although the help does point out that from the Freudian Excuse position, his symptoms don't make a whole lot of sense. | |

Waiting Puzzle: Near the end of Dub's therapy, when he starts crying and using up tissues, you have to wait until he uses up all the tissues before you can proceed; and even then, one foot wrong will set him off again. | |

Tender Tears: Dub, when his abandonment issues come to the surface. He uses up a whole box of tissues. Kroko sheds a tear as well when he's cured and reunited with his beloved hot-water bottle. | |

Fission Mailed: A red bar on the patient's progress meter usually means that you've messed up your patient even more and need to "reset" them with electroshock therapy. At one point you have to do it to break Dub out of a catatonic state and continue with his therapy. | |

Cruelty Is the Only Option | |
Die Anstalt (Video Game) / int_fc25c2fb | comment |
Cruelty Is the Only Option: Some of the treatments are hard on the patients, but necessary. For instance take Dub's entire treatment, which requires ECT to get him out of a severe depressive episode, AND in the end makes him cry his way through an entire box of tissues. It's all important, but still feels incredibly cruel to the poor little animals. | |
