"Cry of Fear" - Terrifying Trivia Quiz

Answer: He is writing about it

Simon was involved in a serious car accident that left him paralyzed from the waist down. He also received mental trauma, worsening the psychological problems he had beforehand. His doctor, Dr. Purnell, had him write a book to help him cope. Everything that occurs in the game, except for the ending, is based around the book he is writing, which expresses his feelings.

The Simon that is played throughout the game is "Book Simon", and not the "Real Simon", who appears only in the endings and flashbacks.

Answer: Sophie

Book Simon encounters Book Sophie on a rooftop, where he confesses his feelings for her. She calmly rejects him, saying that he is more of a friend to her. Shortly afterwards, she jumps off of the building and commits suicide. This was caused by a monster, Carcass. Book Simon has the choice of killing Carcass or running away. The ending will be affected by the player's choice.

Answer: A gun

Book Purnell and Book Simon are separated by fencing. Book Simon needs a key to get through a door, which Book Purnell has. Book Purnell offers a trade; a gun for the key. Book Simon gets the gun, which is empty, and has the choice of giving it to Book Purnell or not. Whether he does or not, Book Purnell gives Book Simon the key and shoots him in the shoulder with a revolver he had hidden. Book Simon then chases and eventually kills him.

The ending will be affected based on whether or not the player gave Book Purnell the gun or not.

Answer: His mother

His mother texts him every so often, begging him to come home because it's getting dark. Book Simon's goal is to make it back home where he will be safe, but also to make sure that his mother is alright.

Answer: False

When Book Simon makes it to the train station, he finds Book Purnell at the platform. Book Purnell had just encountered another survivor who failed to listen to him. This resulted in Book Purnell shooting the survivor in the head with his revolver.

Answer: Knife

Book Simon can hold the knife two different ways, each being effective. However, it is not required to keep the knife. Once the player has enough weapons, they can make Book Simon drop it at any point. The same goes for any weapon or non-essential item that Book Simon picks up.

Answer: Scandinavia

The game's description gives details about Simon's journey at night through a Scandinavian city. However, it is not known what Scandinavian country he is from.

Answer: Commits suicide

The monster cuts its own head off with one of the chainsaws. This is followed by the game entering Chapter 2, where Book Simon first encounters Book Dr. Purnell.

Answer: Him committing suicide

Real Simon finishes his book, bringing the game to a close. However, the ending is determined by what choices Book Simon made; giving Book Purnell the gun or not, and choosing to kill Carcass or running away. The bad endings occur only if Book Simon did not kill Carcass and/or didn't give Book Purnell the gun (both have to be done for the good ending).

The bad endings depict Simon committing suicide, then either killing two police officers, Real Dr. Purnell, Real Sophie, or all four of them.

Answer: Being admitted to a mental hospital

Real Simon finishes his book, bringing the game to a close. However, the ending is determined by what choices Book Simon; giving Book Purnell the gun or not, and choosing to kill Carcass or running away. If Book Simon killed Carcass and gave Book Purnell the gun, Simon will prepare to commit suicide after finishing his book, but in his mind, is confronted by Book Simon. Real Simon kills him, but in reality kills two police officers. Real Simon is admitted to a mental hospital, under the care of Real Dr. Purnell. Real Simon says that Sophie visits him sometime, but she found a new friend that treats her right (presumably a boyfriend).

However, Real Simon says he is happy for her.
