''Kya: Dark Lineage'' was a 3D [[ActionGame action]] and PlatformGame published in 2003 by Atari for Sony's PlayStation2. It tells the story of ActionGirl Kya, who is teleported to AnotherDimension after her brother discovers an ancient artifact in the basement of her house. She quickly becomes embroiled in a conflict between the local Nativ and an EvilOverlord named Brazul, who has been kidnapping and transforming the Nativs into loyal servants known as Wolfen. Her brother, by contrast, is quickly captured by Brazul, and used for his research. Armed with a bracelet, a boomerang-like hair clip, and a dose of magical abilities, Kya sets out to restore the Wolfen back to peaceful Nativs, defeat Brazul, and find a way to get back home.

Added DiffLines:

* HaveANiceDeath / TheManyDeathsOfYou: Oh boy. Even though Kya's deaths are [[BloodlessCarnage bloodless]], they are still gruesome. Get chased by a watch-dog? Get nom'd on like a bone. Fell into grinding spikes? Get cut into multiple pieces. Get squished? Get squished.
* OneHitKill: Although a few enemies can perform this on Kya, there's still enemies that can do so. The watch-dogs and the [[EliteMook Mumified Wolfens]] are the few that can. The watch-dogs will treat Kya like a large bone and the Mumies have a insta-kill move they can perform if the player is not careful.

* CraniumRide: One of the attacks Kya can get from the bracelets are the ability to ride a Wolfen. Charging into another Wolfen will knock it back, but Wolfens can still knock you off.



* FailureIsTheOnlyOption: Screwing up during a stealth section? To far to run away? Yeah, you're better off jumping into that pit of water, or let the woflen kill you.

to:

** Only downside is that since you can increase Kya's max health by getting more health bars, depending on the way you died, you'll either lose a tiny bit of health or a lot. Sometimes even a whole health bar, and dying with multiple health bars won't regenerate them.

* MenuTimeLockout: Checking your map and how many Woflens are around/left happens through the pause menu. Selecting health items, soccer-bomb-balls and trap-balls are done in real-time by holding down one of the shoulder buttons and pressing either circle or square to switch through the stuff you've bought.
* NintendoHard: More of a YMMV but [[spoiler: Brazul's]] fight might count, especially with his cheap powerpunches, which knocks a decent chunk of health out, and stuns you for a certain amount of time.

* ContinuingIsPainful: Not as much, but whenever you die by any other means than losing all your health (like planting your face into the ground at freefalling speed) you usually lose all the health for that health bar. Also certain times when you recover from death/reload last checkpoint, not all of your health will be back. [[spoiler: Screwing up Brazul's boss battle may count if you run out of health items or don't have enough health.]]

Added DiffLines:

* BloodlessCarnage: Mixed: When a Wolfen is sent flying, by a kick or punch, it's possible to spot a tooth or two and a smere of blood. If Kya dies however, it's a different story. Unless she lands in a grinder. No blood, just her getting split into sereval different pieces.

* TheGuardsMustBeCrazy: Sometimes subverted. You can easily pass a wolfen who's eye-sight is 180 degrees from your location, but getting spotted is a different story. A wolfen will call his bodies to beat the smack out of you, or worse. Escaping them can be quite a pain, especially during stealth levels.
