Added DiffLines:

* AbandonedArea: The whole base is empty of other life beside yourself.


Added DiffLines:

Added DiffLines:

* ElaborateUndergroundBase: The facility you find yourself in is quite vast, and has sections going deep beneath the earth.


Added DiffLines:

* GravityMaster: The ''Z-7'' device enables the user to suspend gravity for himself, enabling longer jumps and (stationary) floating.
* GreatOffscreenWar: The war with the ''Light Folk'' seems to have ended an indeterminate time ago, [[spoiler: possibly due to mutual nuclear annihilation.]]


Added DiffLines:

** One propaganda poster seems to imply that the black squares were either disadvantaged during the war, or were outright losing it.


Added DiffLines:

* SilentProtagonist: ''Subject &#!'' doesn't utter a single word.
* SuperSerum: ''Chemical @73'', meant to produce super soldiers.

* DownerEnding: All three endings are quite sad.sad:
** The Many: [[spoiler: Subject &#! ventures down into the basement of the facility looking for Dr. +/G, only to find the good Dr. hanged and dead in his office with "I'm Sorry Too" written in blood on the wall.]]
** The Few: [[spoiler: Subject &#! goes to the Restraint Depot where his family has been taken, only to find that it's actually a morgue, and his family was killed by his own hand. He ends up trapped in another cell, with a note reading "You Belong Here" being all that's in it.]]
** The One: [[spoiler: Subject &#! leaves the facility and goes on his way to City XY*213. As he passes the skyline in the background an enormous mushroom cloud appears and then vanishes, implying the city has long been devastated by nuclear war.]]

* HopelessWar: The game doesn't reveal much about the background war, but - as the player - you get the impression it's hopeless. Just see the DownerEndings - they really don't induce much hope.
