* The true ending of ''[[Braid]]''. [[Gainax Ending|Open to interpretation]], but it would appear that the princess was trying to escape from the protagonist to the antagonist, not the other way around. Or she's an atomic bomb.
* [[Drawn to Life]]: The Next Chapter for the DS. Basically, all of the adorable animal characters in the village are killed, G-Rated style (they fade away). One of the characters, named Mike, fades away last. The voice of Mike's sister Heather is heard asking the Creator, the god-like figure in the game to bring her brother back, which at first seems like a [[Crowning Moment of Heartwarming]]. Then, her message changes and she was really trying to say, "God, just bring back my little brother to me." It is now revealed that Mike and Heather are actually humans, and the whole story with the village of cute animal things was all just a dream that Mike was having. It wasn't a regular dream either, It turns out that Mike and his family were in a ''car crash, which killed his parents, injured his sister, and put him in a coma.'' The only thing about the ending that could be considered "happy" is the fact that Mike wakes up, and even then, he and Heather are still orphans. ''Damn.''
* ''[[Harvest Moon: A Wonderful Life]]''. You die.
* ''[[Bit.Trip|BIT.TRIP FATE]]'' is a pretty dark game compared to the other games in the series, but the [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gKOD7kjSDfw#t=8m47s ending] takes the cake. Upon defeating the [[Final Boss]], CommanderVideo [[Turns Red]], gets into position... [[Suicide Attack|and rams himself into the boss, destroying it and killing himself]]. After the final point tally, CommandgirlVideo arrives at the site of the final battle, realises what just happened, and sheds a [[Single Tear]].
* ''[[The Adventures of Sam & Max: Freelance Police|Sam and Max Freelance Police]]: The Devil's Playhouse'' is a comedy [[Lovecraft Lite]] that, while [[Darker and Edgier]] than the previous games, is still very lighthearted and playful. The ending involves {{spoiler|Max being [[Killed Off for Real]]}}.
