Heart of Darkness (video game)/YMMV

Everything About Fiction You Never Wanted to Know.


  • Alien Scrappy: Amigo
  • Awesome Music: One of the very first games to incorporate symphonic music, to reinforce the cinematic feel.
  • Demonic Spiders: Nearly anything to be precise. Everything, absolutely EVERYTHING, has a way to One-Hit-Kill you. Shadows eat you, Worms will emerge from a wall, snap you and feast on you in a matter of seconds. Shadows in armor can use "The Power" in various ways, flying shadows likewise and they double for goddamn bats. And that are the few creatures you can actually HARM. The shadow spiders are a perfect match: you usually fight them while climbing, limiting your movements; they drip poison on the handholds that can make you fall, and they evade any shot you can fire at them unless you let them come very close.
  • Goddamned Bats: The shadows mostly, but flying shadows are a perfect match: they fly, they evade everything you throw at them if its the last one and they can throw fireballs that kill you in one hit. Ask anyone about them and they will say they hate them with a passion.
  • Good Bad Bugs: If Andy crouches such that his rear end pokes off the screen, enemies will not come from that side.
  • What Do You Mean It's Not for Kids?: The game being rated E despite of the vast amount of gruesome ways Andy can be killed.
