* GuideDangIt: A non-videogame example, but during [[spoiler:Amelia's 33 year long reign as the Conductor]], passengers were not told why they were on the Train, how to get off of it, what the glowing numbers on their hands meant, or what made said numbers go up or down, so they could only draw their own conclusions based on what they learned on their travels or what happened to them. Grace believed that her number going up was a good thing, and started a cult of children whose goal was to get their numbers as high as possible.

* MarkOfTheSupernatural: Each passenger has a glowing green number on their hand. Larger numbers represent more emotional baggage, and the number will go down the more they improve as people (but it can also go up if they do bad things and become worse people). When it reaches zero, an exit door to the real world opens that will take them home.

* DemiurgeArchetype: Fits many of the typical traits of a traditional Demiurge figure during her rule of the Train. She usurped the role of Conductor, the closest equivalent to a god on the Train, from One-One, the ''real'' Conductor, and spent the next thirty years deceiving the Denizens into thinking she was the real deal. She also treats most Denizens with palpable apathy, similar to how the Demiurge is shown tormenting/seeing humanity as lesser, and she's defeated once One-One eventually regains control of the Train from her, thanks to being talked down by Tulip and being forced to leave her own delusions of seeing Alrick again behind.
