Games which feature creatures who make use of the natural excretions of their body to lay waste to their enemies.
Some creatures don't need guns or swords to hurt you. Instead they pack a punch with some kind of deadly breath attack, be it flaming, poisonous, radioactive, or just plain bad!
The main line of distinction between victory or failure in video games, death is the process of a biological being ceasing to be alive.
Cast-away swamp-dwellers of the PS3 game Demon's Souls.
Fog plays an important role in many games. In games like Silent Hill, it's an atmospheric element. In other games, it's artificially added to reduce draw distances to save memory and increase framerate.
Sentient fungi. Typical forest creatures.
Gas Bags are a species of benign creatures found on Eden Prime. They appear to release a toxic cloud of gas upon death.
Ground Fog is low-flying fog that obscures less than 60% of the sky and doesn't extend to the base of any overhead clouds.
Health is a value that gauges how much damage players can take in a game before they die or pass out. Also known as life in some games. Health is usually represented by a bar or a percentage instead of an exact amount. Found in most non sport games
Koffing is a poison-type Pokémon first found in Pokémon Red/Blue. Koffing makes guttural sounds of saying its name before emitting a toxic cloud of fumes that poisons opponents, earning it its name.
A recurring enemy in the Final Fantasy series, famous for its status-inflicting Bad Breath attack.
An unwholesome atmoshphere.
Nova-6 is an experimental biological weapon originally developed by the Nazis in World War II that the Russians get a hold of in Call of Duty: Black Ops.
Simulating the effects of a great variety of poisons, toxins, venoms and nerve agents can lead to many unique and interesting mechanics. A classic trope in games, Poison usually deals small amounts of damage to health over time.
Smog is a Silent Hill monster who attacks you with dangerous gasses that come from its body.
An eight legged arachnid. Some make webs to catch prey and some are poisonous. None have made a web grand enough to be called a parlor, though.
The Thin Man is an enemy unit featured in XCOM: Enemy Unknown. A fairly common unit, it has average attack power and health.
A mechanical system designed to capture or cause harm. Either the player can set traps for their enemies or others set them for the player.
Weezing is a poison-type Pokémon first found in the original Pokémon Red/Blue. Weezing, the evolution of Koffing, has mutated from its previous form, conjoined heads making the stinking toxic cloud around its body even worse.
Zombies, more accurately called the walking dead, are reanimated corpses who feed on the living, and have become a ubiquitous video game enemy. They often move slowly, but can be deadly in large numbers, which is unfortunately how they tend to travel. Shotgun time!
