get this: the audio logs you recover start talking about being watched and controlled by an unseen entity. it's talking about you, the player.

every level is the same hospital floor looped over and over except with more bullshit. we pitch it as being trapped in layers of your psyche or w/e but really we just can't afford additional map assets

after you solve the puzzles to detonate the two power cores to defeat the giant clown god at the cost of hundreds of thousands of civilian casualties, you find a page with a quote from Oppenheimer. NOTE: the game is not a metaphor for the atomic bomb seriously guys

satanic splash-back posted:

You wake up in an innocuous bedroom. You try the door, but it is locked. Your inventory screen comes up but all you have is your Bic lighter.

A small, handwritten note slides dramatically under the door. An ambiguous shadowy hand withdraws away.

You pick up the note. It goes into your inventory. You must open the inventory screen to use the note to read the note. Once you use the note, it appears of the 3D object spinning up to the forefront of the screen. You can read the vaguely cursive English if you want, or press another button to transcribe it onto the screen in print. It reads: "You must solve the 500 piece puzzle to get the key to escape this room."

When you look to your left, you see a single puzzle box on top of a dark wooden desk. You click the puzzle box in your inventory only to find that you are out of inventory space and cannot open the box because it would take up two inventory spaces, but 3/4 slots are already taken by the box, Bic lighter, and the note.

You must first drop the note to open the puzzle box.

at no point does the bic lighter do anything useful

there are multiple puzzles involving flammable objects that must be destroyed. attempting to use the lighter on them plays the same canned sound byte it always does where the protagonist wonders where their smokes went and contemplates quitting. the gameplay pauses for several seconds until the end of the clip every time you do this.
