* AfterTheEnd: The game seems to take place in a world that died a long time ago. The opening movie shows ruined remains of modern civilization (skyscrapers, cars, a cargo ship), but the world itself is a wasteland of volcanic ash, without any plant life except for a few mutated and highly hostile vine-like growths.

* OffWithHisHead: The opening cutscene illustrates its narration about how the heads of hydra "do not rise again but have always been risen" with a first-person scene of some evil-looking humanoid getting its head torn off with bare heads...only to be reattached to a body immediately after.

Added DiffLines:
* OneHundredPercentCompletion: Hidden throughout the game you can find tablets with symbols of the in-game runic alphabet. Each tablet translates one rune to an English letter. Finding all 26 tablets will allow you to read the various inscriptions found throughout the game and give you a slightly better understanding of the story and what the hell is going on.

It appears to be set in a world where the human society has been completely taken over by a cult of Four Evil Princes. Of course, only the sages of old called them that, back when there was still the strength to resist them. For generations since then, humanity at large only knows them as Messiahs, brought to save the human souls as the only representation of truth and life, with the slave-priests keeping the flock in line and promptly rooting out any deviations. Now, an unnamed protagonist is the only one who dares to rise up and confront them.

[[SimilarlyNamedWorks No relation]] to the 2019 horror game ''VideoGame/SilverChains''.
!!Inner Tropes:
* BadBadActing: The narrator in the opening both has a very questionable pronunciation and is clearly just reading the lines without much care for them.
* BurnTheWitch: Inverted in the opening, where a clearly evil hag and a gaggle of her followers burn a pretty young maiden at stake.
* FireBreathingWeapon: A flamethrower is one of the three main weapons you get to wield.
* FirstPersonGhost: Your character possesses no lower body.
* GoodOldFisticuffs: The only way to attack before you find your first weapon, or if you happened to run out of ammo.
* HeroicMime: The protagonist doesn't speak even once.
* OffWithHisHead: The opening cutscene illustrates its narration about how the heads of hydra "do not rise again but have always been risen" with a first-person scene of some evil-looking humanoid getting its head torn off with bare heads...only to be reattached to a body immediately after.
* ShockAndAwe: A lighting cannon is the first proper weapon you obtain. It's not very impressive, though, as the enemies do not even react much to electricity coursing all over their body, rather than being stunned and[=/=]or screaming out in pain and terror.
* TitleDrop: The opening cutscene ends with one: "The journey you must take will lead you to the deepest labyrinths of your true Self. You must confront it to break the inner chains."
* ToplessnessFromTheBack: The opening shows a group led by a witch burning a young woman at stake. She appears to be completely naked, but the camera is positioned behind the stake she is tied to, so we only see her back.
* UniversalAmmunition: Averted, to the point that there are specific ammo refill stations for every ammo type.
