I will list a few of my favorites below, just to give you an idea: The majority of the characters are inmates of the Blackfield Asylum and Black lets us dive as deep as we want into their backstories.

For example, the character roster for the game is absolutely disgusting. This actually makes more sense the further we analyze Black‘s features. You may know him as the mascot of the franchise, Sweet Tooth. Everything that you see and that happens to you is a lie, all happening inside the mind of serial killer Needles Kane. Once translated, it let’s the player know that the events of Black didn’t actually happen. Once you unlock the mid-boss Minion’s campaign, you can see that all of his dialogue is encoded.

Sounds simple right? However, if you do a little bit of research once you complete the game, you may have a completely different opinion. On the surface, Black tells the story where you can be one of many degenerates that participate in this blood-soaked, chaotic mess of a game put together by the possibly mystical Calypso. While there is very little in the way of story, just like the majority of vehicle warfare games, what we are left with is interesting if you want to read through the lines. The fifth game in the Twisted Metal franchise, Twisted Metal: Black is like the much darker, antisocial cousin that sits in the corner and you should be very concerned about.
