* The "Who Am I" ending reveals that the player character is [[VideoGame/RidesWithStrangers Lydia]], who is seeking the Red Room because she's "looking for more ways to get off."]] With that in mind, a typical playthrough will have you accessing sites that detail various forms of BodyHorror, {{Gorn}}, [[SexSlave sex slavery]], [[RapeAsDrama sexual assault]] in general, and other, similarly unpleasant things. [[spoiler:Lydia could very well be turned on by the squicky things you can encounter in-game.

* In the secret ending, why does the victim, [[spoiler: AKA Larry, somehow manages to break free from his restraints only to get caught when he tries to escape onto the road? The executioner could just kill him and get it over with, [[YankTheDogsChain but where's the fun in that?]]]]

* It seems stupid that the Kidnapper would just dismiss the signal he got if the lights are off and you're completely quiet and still...until you realize if he got the wrong place, whoever he invaded would have no problem calling the cops on him since, unlike you, they wouldn't be doing anything illegal or raise any questions.
** Browsing the dark web isn't illegal, even if it's for gore. The only thing illegal would be viewing child porn, and you can't do that in ''WTTG''.
*** Browsing the Deep Web itself may not be illegal, but there are some services that are in some countries, which would raise quite a few questions if you got police involved.
*** That's true, but I'm sure ''WTTG'' takes place in the United States. The player, Adam, the other person on the phone, the Breather, and the Executioner all have American accents, the Victim is from New York, it has an American developer, it's most assuredly in the US, and I'm sure there, unless it's child porn, the police don't/can't care about some guy digging around the dark web. Yeah, they might not personally approve of it, but not so strongly that the player would entirely rule out contacting them as an option. The secret ending reveals the real reason they don't call the police.
