* WhatDoYouMeanItsNotForKids: While [[Franchise/FiveNightsAtFreddys the original franchise]] is hardly tame to begin with, it at least has comical moments and doesn't veer off into dark territories ''too'' openly. Actually, it's more about trying to encourage sympathy than it is anger or fear concerning the backstory. As for ''this'' game, on the other hand, the entire thing is pitch black, the BodyHorror is absolutely disgusting, there's ''way'' too much swearing, the main villain Garvey is a real KnightOfCerebus compared to other renditions of William, and the player is never alive from the start and is in fact in a distorted purgatory of his life in the real world.

* ScrappyMechanic: In the original version of the game, muting the phone call at the start of the night can sometimes instead give you an easter egg that mutes all audio until you either die or beat the night. Though the first time this can be a decent form of BlackComedy, a player doing many attempts on a particularly difficult night is likely to react to getting this easter egg with frustration, as not being able to hear audio cues practically dooms the player to failure. Thankfully, the remaster did away with this easter egg, instead making it a part of the story and removing the audio muting aspect.

* GameBreakingBug: The game has quite a lot of these and they get fixed in real time. The reason why they're game-breaking is that they make the game even less possible to finish. There are so many bugs, in fact, there's an entire thread on the game's [[https://gamejolt.com/games/dormitabis/108410/devlog Gamejolt devlog.]] Some examples of game-breaking bugs:
** One that caused AMIREAL/Cakebear to move at the beginning of the night, adding unnecessary difficulty.
** The game-crashing easter egg of [[spoiler:Golden Freddy/Golden Call appearing on your desk happened ''too'' frequently]], making it near-impossible to finish a single night.
** One that caused Havoc Foxy’s sign to say "82838587", a complex password, too often (this was changed to "2357").

"This trope frequently gets misused for any work that is dark, angsty, or depressing. That is just Complaining About Shows You Don't Like. It only applies when there is no meaningful conflict because everyone is awful and the world sucks, and therefore there are no stakes for the audience. If people enjoy the work despite its grim setting, this trope does not apply; and if people dislike a work because it's too depressing, Angst Aversion applies instead (as mentioned above)." People like Dormitabis for its darkness, so this does not apply.

** The animatronics themselves can be more silly than morbid to some, with details such as Soulcage and the B.O.A. holding their giant bodies on tiny legs, Molten Evil's hilariously edgy name, and Havoc Chica's walk cycle looking remarkably like a morning power walk.
** Whenever AMIREAL changes location, he says aloud which camera he's on, resulting in a good amount of his nights consisting of hearing random numbers spoken in an unfittingly dead-serious tone of voice.
