My Observation:

The story can always end up with the same ending. The player always get hit by the falling objects and become injured at the end. This really saves time for the storyteller. But I personally wish to create stories that have more dynamic endings.

By the way, Observe the story from the ending first and slowly back to beginning can give you more interesting insights about the structure of the story.

The technique I learned this time:

The ending of this story involved some very surprising characters and settings. I didn't see the 'mutant' coming in the story. It is very important to disguise your story well before you show the core of your story.
