Line 113:
* One particularly nasty moment of ''[[Call of Cthulhu: Dark Corners of the Earth]]'' has Jack, the protagonist, walk to an ore grinder and suddenly have a vision of a man who is bound and carried by the conveyor and then dumped into the same grinder. A second later, poor fellow's mutilated remains rain onto Jack. Furthermore, after getting upstairs, Jack discovers that the only way out is [[Stupidity Is the Only Option|up the same conveyor]]. Naturally, the villain activates the conveyor again, and Jack survives only by jumping onto the catwalk over the grinder, which breaks and blocks the cogs. The whole episode is pretty nightmarish.
* In the finale of ''[[Heavy Rain]]'', Norman Jayden can get into a fight on a conveyor belt of doom with the Origami Killer, who can kill him if you fail the button prompts.
* One of the most iconic executions in ''[[Danganronpa (video game)|Danganronpa]]'' is the "After School Special" in the first game. {{spoiler| The victim is seated at a desk on the conveyor belt, the end of which has a giant compactor that will smash the victim flat at the end. Worse, as the desk moves backwards, Monokuma appears to gloat, dressed as a teacher and giving the victim a class lesson (specifically sex education). This is the fate intended for Kyoko, but she only gets it in the Bad Ending should the player call her out for lying in the fifth trial; if the player avoids this, Makoto is the victim, but he is saved by Alter Ego, which leads to the sixth and final chapter. It is also the sixth part of the Ultimate Punishment given to Junko. For extra awesome, this is included in ''Cyber Danganronpa VR Class Trial''. Who’s the victim here? YOU are!}}
