Dark Corners of the Earth/YMMV


 * Anticlimax Boss:
 * Best Level Ever: One of the most praised levels in the game is the
 * On the same token, the cutter level.
 * Crowning Moment of Awesome: By the end of the game, Jack has done several awesome things within the week. Namely, he fought his way out of Innsmouth, killed a number of cultists, All without going completely insane.
 * Disappointing Last Level: A pretty serious case too, it's quite clear that most of the game's development went into the first half of the game. The last two levels are particularly problematic.
 * Dull Surprise: Jack always talks in the same tone of voice. Even when insanity kicks in.
 * Eldritch Abomination: Cthulhu, Hydra, and Dagon. The Shoggoth, Deep Ones, Star Spawn of Cthulhu and the Flying Polyps are smaller versions of this.
 * High Octane Nightmare Fuel: The ore-crusher scene. Dear god.
 * Also the scene where an FBI agent has been covered in Shoggoth acid and can only yell gibberish as Hoover tries to get him to say what he ran into. Eventually, Hoover takes out a gun and shoots him. He then turns to you and says: "What're you looking at me like that for? He was an agent, he knew the risks!"
 * And about the shoggoth itself. It's gigantic, capable of forming eyes, mouths, tentacles and weird "blossom"-things wherever it wants to attack you. One thing that was added to the shoggoth for this game that makes it even worse is that its entire body is highly corrosive and will hurt you just by brushing up against it. Oh, and staring too long at it makes Jack (justifiably) freak out so much his vision blurs and he mutters to himself in a panic very rapidly. If not for the fact that it's sitting in the middle of a bunch of dangerous industrial machinery you would be totally unable to hurt it.
 * Also, when the Fishmen in the Hell Hotel try to kill Jack in his sleep. And they learn he's awake and aware of what's going on. And he's completely unarmed.
 * Most Annoying Sound: "Spread out! Search the area!", which is repeated over and over and over again by the Innsmouth residents.
 * Squick: Mother Hydra. She has scales, is grotesquely fat, has razor sharp teeth, and has four giant breasts. She's just... gross.
 * That One Boss:
 * That One Level: The penultimate level in the Deep One's underground city is absolutely infuriating in just how annoying it is. Mostly because it has one of the most insane, long, and Guide Dang It puzzles in the history of video games that requires a bunch of backtracking and searching.
