Relevant Files
Even the uncensored game offers an option to remove/change certain scenes. When this option is enabled, different files are used. This here is a list of the the relevant files. It also includes special versions of some files - for example the UK version does not contain some uncut files at all and it was censored even more than the original optionally censored file.

Censorship differences - uncensored vs. UK censored version
This goes into detail about the changes made to the UK censored version.
| scene | details |
| 4391.DUK - murder scene | got replaced by 4395.DUK, an even more heavily censored version than the original censored version included with the uncensored game |
| 4395.DUK - murder scene | based on the censored version included with the uncensored game this goes even further and removes basically all the remains of violence 0:27 to 0:29 - original: victim gets punched in the face (bloody), replaced by more of Curtis walking forward in slow-motion 0:34 to 0:35 - original: victim gets nail hammered into one of his hands, also replaced by more of Curtis walking forward in slow-motion 0:41 - original: black+white photo flashback showing nail in victim's hand, this was cut out you still see that the victim is thrown around and 2 photo flashbacks, but that's it. |
| 8215.DUK - second murder | sex part is completely intact 2:30 onwards basically the whole murder part of the scene got removed right after the woman spots the murderer you see that an iron chain is getting thrown over some pipes at the ceiling followed by an alternate quite long take at 2:35 of her hands being tied up with the iron chain, followed by a fadeout. |
| 8216.DUK - second murder | the censored version is the same except for the murder part again. In the censored version from the uncensored game, you at least see that the woman got tied up using the iron chain and that her feet are in the air - struggling. In the UK version even this was replaced with the already mentioned alternate long take of her hands being tied up with the iron chain at 2:06, followed by the same fadeout. |
Differences between localized versions
A few changes were made to the localized versions (German + French). Those were not censored.
| CD | file name | original lengh | new length | content |
| CD1 | 3920.DUK | 0:39 | 0:13 | was: Therese and Curtis meet at water cooler this scene was replaced with Curtis just getting a drink This is a copy of 3390.DUK |
| CD3 | 4620.DUK | 0:34 | 0:27 | Therese attacks Curtis, differently edited has no dialog at all in the German+French version less suspenseful |
| CD5 | 5.DUK | 1:40 | 1:40 | The background during the credits is different |
