When the player's death is addressed and integrated in-game as a part of the player's continuing story. This often involves reincarnation of sorts, or the player continues by moving on to a different character.
Special codes or button combinations used to gain powers or advantages in a game. Generally hidden.
A different take on the commonplace video game death. Different ways to avoid death can include time travel, as in Prince of Persia; or a minigame, as in Prey.
Death is permanent. But you can get a second chance and start were you left off, at the expense of experience & gold.
Ghosts are small, sapient machines created by the Traveler shortly after the Collapse. Their sole purpose is to locate and resurrect deceased individuals capable of wielding the Light as Guardians, and to support their Guardian charge in combat.
A glitch is an action performed within the bounds of a game engine that was not intended by the game's developers. Glitches are often performed by the player, though they can also occur independently.
God Mode is an ability, often entered through a cheat code, that gives the player god-like abilities.
Games made for a younger audience, usually between 3-9.
