The 15 Keys Rising is a videogame based on the story series of the same name, and made by the same people. The story follows the exact story of the books but adds some new content just so players have more missions as all characters.
Tropes in this game are:
- Absurdly Sharp Blade: Zach and Jacob wield swords, but Zach's is considerably better at cutting things into a bajillion pieces, but Jacob's cat actually cut in a circle while only slashing forward
- Automatic New Game: Running the game the first time plays the Mook Battle theme, and then you see yourself with the controls displayed in the left bottom corner.
- Battle in the Center of the Mind: Except Jacob and Monica fought in Zachs mind against The Destroyer
- Be Careful What You Wish For: Jackie wished she could be like the others. Then the organisation augmented her brain, and began to use it as a bargaining chip.
- BFS: Monica carried one in her third to last level. It didn't allow her to use her newest upgrade, but she managed to cut down the Haven Machine.
- Brick Joke: Has anybody noticed that whenever Monica enters a battle she is IMMEDIATELY stabbed? Yes? ok.
- Averted in her final battle before the last scenario. She stabs the opponent instead.
- Brought Down to Badass: Zach, somehow escaping the haven machine comes back powerless and missing his right arm. Why to badass? He managed to knock his enemy out, who is the Big Bad!
- Character Customization: You get this with all three characters, as well as the multiplayer characters to a lesser degree
- Context-Sensitive Button: As all three characters pressing the E key will have an unknown effect, but always an attack or a block.
- Easy-Mode Mockery: Zach flat-out refuses to let the player fight the final boss on Easy mode, instead substituting it with a cutscene. Once the cutscene is over, he tells the player to try again on a higher difficulty, accusing them of being scared.
- Fallen Hero: The Destroyer. Zach was a child when his darkness awoke, but it was like him, until it witnessed it's mentor crushed before his eyes. Zach and The Destroyer became different at that point in time.
- Lightning Bruiser: Zach and Monica. Jacob comes VERY close, but has not got any on the run attacks.
- Oh, Crap!: Zach did this, followed by:
- Mass "Oh, Crap!": When they see what Zach saw, The Destroyer spirit absorbed by Armstrong
- Our Angels Are Different: In this game we see they are human, with different instincts, wings, and are a lot paler.
- Press X to Not Die: In a way. Pressing the E key in cutscene battles lets the character do a more awesome attack, dodge or block. In one case it allows Monica to actually change the area in which she fights.
- Rocket-Tag Gameplay: During all of Zach's boss fights. Your health can be easily restored to prolong a fight though.
- Superpowered Evil Side: More like More Super Power Evil Side. The Destroyer is stronger than Zach when he enters this state
- Super Mode: Zach got one to replace his Destroyer state
- Took a Level in Badass: Hilariously this is possible for Monica, but it just upgrades her aesthetics and attack speed.
- "Where's my leather Jacket?
