Other mistake: In Miri's mission "Cold Storage", the 5th line of one of the first panels says "unwanted excresence", missing a C in excresCence.

Bug: During the town and camp scenes, the pathfinding has multiple problems and often clicking directly on the character you want to speak to and that is properly highlighted with the halo popping around them only makes you walk behind them or not move at all, despite the lack of any obstacle.

Sammo

Other mistake: During the negotiation with the dragon in Act 4, there's this line; "Imagine my surprise when Tag's family came-a-knockin', saying we should step aside." The line is spoken according to the text box by Tag himself, while it should be his rival Bink to speak.

The Two Popes (2019)

Factual error: The narration of Cardinal Jorge Bergoglio's controversial tenure during the Peronist regime concludes with Pope Benedict saying "You were cast out of office[...], sent abroad." The date shown is "1983." Correct, but then it goes on, saying "You were sent to the mountains" and shows Bergoglio in Cordoba, Argentina, which happened much later, circa 1990 - and a 1990 book is the first one he's shown reading, "La nueva evangelización; perspectiva de los oprimidos". And yet, at the end of the prolonged scene, featuring also a 1983 book in "Plueberina", the calendar shows the time passing, starting from 1983. We're already in 1990. (01:24:00 - 01:27:50)

Bug: On particular occasions (such as stepping on your own landmine at the end of a turn), a character can become permanently stunned. Their skills can be used, if you click past the 'Stunned' sign that partially covers the UI, but they will stay unable to move.

Sammo

Bug: A real bug about bugs; the drone enemies (the small critters that explode upon death) can randomly occupy the same tile as another character, and still attack from there without being hit - the original occupant of the tile absorbs the damage.

Character mistake: In the pep talk Elaine gives on the pier at the end of chapter 6, she says "In two years, you've done for them more than any real Loren in centuries." Each chapter lasts two months; a year passed, not two.

Upvote valid corrections to help move entries into the corrections section.

Suggested correction: In a couple of the Codex entries, it's explained that each in-universe 'year' consists of only 9 months (instead of our 12) of 28 days each. The Calendar entry of the Codex even tells you the names of the months and the order they go in. So each chapter (55 days) spans 2 months + 1 week. (it still comes out to more like 1.5 years instead of 2, but hey).

Other mistake: When Gunther's little pug Heinrich goes missing for the arc of his bond quest, Gunther is still holding him in the dialogue box. Characters have alternate expressions and versions in their artwork and they even went through the bother of making the dog a playable character for one single mission, it's just odd to see him speak about the missing dog while he is holding it.

A Simple Favor (2018)

Other mistake: Emily does not let people take her pictures, but she obviously has documents - she signed papers and has a driving license - and also has a husband quite fond of her who spends ages sucking face with her. With all that considered, nobody picks up on the obvious fact that her mole (which is in a position that would show in every mugshot) switched sides.

A Simple Favor (2018)

A Simple Favor mistake picture

Continuity mistake: Emily removes from her outfit the jacket and the dickey and leaves them on the couch before she gets booze (for some reason in another room). The dickey lies on top of the jacket, untouched and yet obviously in different ways in the various shots - look at it the first time, with just a little part sticking out over the couch and down its back, and then look at it when Emily comes back, and how the jacket and dickey are practically parallel. (00:08:25)

Super Bernie World

Character mistake: Before the fourth and final world, President Donald Trump exclaims "It's you!", to which Bernie Sanders replies "Not me, us." It's a cool comeback and all but 'you' applies to both cases, 'me' and 'us'.

Sammo

Other mistake: In Chapter one, venturing in Ban Machair, the first text adventure node is called "Across and Yonder." During the chess match, the word "Asymmetry" is spelled with two S.

Sammo

Continuity mistake: When Aunt Sarah arrives, she dumps her luggage in the hands of Jim and then passes him to his right, leaving him between herself and the door. In the reverse shot, Jim is on the opposite side. (00:29:15)

We. The Revolution

Other mistake: Starting a new game, the description for the Fiction mode says... well, exactly that. "This is the description for the Fiction mode." Nothing else at all. Placeholder text at the very beginning of the game.

Coffee Talk

Other mistake: In the newspaper intermission between days, one headline about the supplies distribution problem is entered twice, one time plural, another time singular.

Sammo

Continuity mistake: The resident bully approaches Mara once her rather embarrassing mum left. Mara turns around and tries to power her way out of the predicament; in the background, the girl with the bright red dress has her arm across her waist, but at the cut she has both arms behind her back. (00:02:40)

Ruby Red (2013)

Continuity mistake: When the awful cousin Charlotte hands Gwen the slice of unbirthday cake, she does it with her right hand, left hand, right hand. (00:04:20)

Sammo

Continuity mistake: Olivia is introducing her intended design, but left out of the heirloom throw pillows her client is fussing about. During the scene, in close-up (when the client asks to talk to her boss) her hair is all the way back behind her shoulders, but she has loose hair all over her blazer's collar in the remaining shots. (00:01:40)

Continuity mistake: On his way to work, Antonio meets his ex Camilla.During their conversation, as it's particularly evident in the subway stairs sequence, passersby vanish every time the camera cuts to another angle. (00:08:00)
