#GYLT STORY EXPLAINED SERIES#

But no, 'I need to find another way back home'. While admittedly not waist-high - more like twice the height of the main character - it's just a chainlink fence it'd be very easily climbable by a scared child who really wants to get the heck out of there and go back home.

Insurmountable Waist-High Fence: At the beginning, right after the cable car ride.

Nevertheless, it still requires batteries to operate. Sally's flashlight is very useful, as besides simply providing illumination, it is also crucial for dealing with the weaker shadow creatures, and is also powerful enough to outright charge key machinery when it is shone at solar panels. You can see the dangeorus puddles by the surging blue electricity.

High-Voltage Death: The classic loose-wire-in-a-puddle trap.

Healing Potion: In Gylt, inhalers act as their equivalent.

As they leave, Sally apologise to Emily and after all she had been through, and now that she had been saved from the monsters, Emily forgives and thanks her. When this happens, provided Sally has collected multiple ticket fragments, Sally gains a new ticket which allows both her and Emily to leave the dark town together. Earn Your Happy Ending: This is possible if you gain all the collectables throughout the game itself.As a result, she completely vanishes along with the dark world and now she turns out to be missing in the real world. The second ending involves Sally letting Emily leave the dark world whilst she stays behind because she couldn't go back home or forgive herself for not being there for her cousin. One ending has Sally leave her cousin behind in the dark town as she continues to put up posters of her as if nothing had even happened. Downer Ending: Both common endings if all collectables aren't gotten.Downer Beginning: Basically how the story begins, with the intro revolving around Sally putting up missing posters of her cousin, Emily around town.Double-Meaning Title: 'Gylt' sounds exactly like 'guilt', which is what Sally is suffering from due to doing nothing as her cousin Emily was being bullied.Creepy Doll: Some monsters appear as teenage-girl-sized robots with the appearance of an unvarnished porcelain doll.Collection Sidequest: There are a few collectibles, which also affect the kind of ending you would get.By doing nothing to help her, Sally herself is really no different from the bullies who went after Emily. Bystander Syndrome: Hugely Deconstructed.Since it is taller than Sally's and Emily's school. Attack of the 50-Foot Whatever: Helplessness fits this description.Air-Vent Passageway: Sally often has to crawl through the vents to get to the otherwise inacessible rooms (such as one with her first inhaler), which is done with relative ease and comes with neither dust nor noise.Yet, at the same time, she soon learns that Emily had somehow been stuck in this place as well and so now, she must attempt to not only survive but also rescue her from this nightmare.

Upon arriving, however, she notices that her town had suddenly turned into a twisted and dangerous version of itself. The player takes on the role of Sally, a schoolgirl who is dealing with the recent disappearance of her cousin Emily, and was putting up 'missing' posters of her when she suddenly gets accosted by bullies and takes a route home she is not used to.
