L'Abbaye des Morts/YMMV
- Crowning Music of Awesome: While the short chiptunes are already a delight for retro enthusiasts, musician Gryzor87 later remade them as a single, 8-minute symphonic piece titled La Suite des Morts. It's great as it sounds.
- Excuse Plot: Only apparently. Beside the historical context, the game's story is very thin, but more can be deduced thanks to the hint scrolls. It's implied that the four bodies hanging from the tree are of the monks who "changed their faith"; maybe, along with other eight monks, they were tasked to protect the church from an evil influence (or the church was built where it is for this reason). However, they betrayed their cause and became members of a Religion of Evil - 4 crosses out of 12 are not Cathar but inverted and need the Wheel of Faith to be collected. The four were discovered and hanged on the spot, and the church abandoned. Jean didn't know of the church's dark past but at least some of the crusaders did – so he was automatically thought as another evil cultist.
- Goddamned Bats/Demonic Spiders: Bats and spiders are present here but are among the easiest enemies to avoid. The role may rather go to some later enemies, although it's mostly their placement in tight places the real danger.
- Nightmare Fuel: The screen "Plagued Ruins" has insects with skull-like or distorted human faces. Also "Hangman Tree", where the music suddenly stops playing as you face the hanging bodies of four monks. It, however, may turn into...
- Nightmare Retardant: The bodies are another obstacle and move up and down. It may be too ridicolous for some.
