The Last Express: Difference between revisions

Line 11:

* [[All There in the Manual]] - The story works just fine if you don't check, but the official web site ([http://lastexpress.markmoran.net/ mirror]) and the official strategy guide have a bit of background on the characters. Playing the game without these just dips you in headfirst.

* [[As Long as It Sounds Foreign]] - The Persian eunuch shouts at you... in Arabic.

** Averted for everyone else. All characters other than the aforementioned eunuch speak their native languages perfectly.

* [[Badass Bookworm]] - Robert Cath; medical doctor, speaks at least four languages, currently pursuing an interest in classical Byzantine literature... and throws a hell of a punch.

* [[Batman Gambit]] - {{spoiler|Schmidt's arms deal was arranged only so it could be thwarted by Anna and give the Austrians and Germans an excuse to go to war with Serbia. It fails if either Anna dies, Schmidt cancels the deal, or Cath pushes the train on to Constantinople.}}

Line 24:

* [[Cassandra Truth]] - Nobody believes François when he says he saw a body being thrown out the window. Even though that's exactly what you did.

* [[Dead Man's Chest]] - One of the ways to stop anyone from finding the body is to stash it in your bed.

* [[Dead Person Impersonation]] - Robert Cath, the protagonist, impersonates his friend, Tyler Whitney (in the page picture).

* [[Deadpan Snarker]]: Robert Cath has his moments.

* [[Downer Ending]] - {{spoiler|WWI begins, Cath doesn't/won't get the girl, Tatiana blows herself up, and the explanation of Tyler's death leaves something to be desired. The other ending hints at a sequel, but the player dies just afterwards. Plus the Comic Relief dies among others.}}

* [[Empty Room Psych]] - Some of the passenger compartments have (at times) nothing important or plot related in them but you'll be so happy you managed to sneak past the conductors you'll look everywhere before leaving.
