10 Disturbing Moments In Non-Horror Games

10. Fake Flora Reveal - Professor Layton And Pandora's Box 

First introduced in the original Professor Layton game, Flora is introduced as being a sweet and smart young girl. She also proves herself capable of assisting with puzzles and plot progression in a similar manner to Luke - the Professor’s apprentice.

After her rescue in the first game though, Layton seems determined to abandon Flora at every turn for her own “safety.” However, during the events of Pandora’s Box, Flora joins the Professor and Luke to unravel the mystery. So far, so wholesome.

However, it is only late in the game when the Professor reveals Flora to have been the antagonist, Don Paolo, in disguise. It is assumed that Flora would have been switched with Don Paolo near the beginning of the game, and several days have passed before this reveal.

Layton claims he’s sure Flora will have had fun with the cows in the field he has deducted she would have been left in but chooses to do nothing about this knowledge until he can reveal the antagonist.

The improbable success of an old and fully grown man impersonating a young girl and succeeding is also disturbing.
