Finally Death comes around. Death comes in the form of two creatures in gasmasks gas-masks and light shining out their eyes. The stalk and prey on the young men in the trenches. When they get a memory they eat it and is then satisfied. Death is not barred from the trenches and can hunt the soldiers everywhere. The game uses a design where the bombs and death are predefinded by the soundscape, but the memories are randomly plotted in.
