	''~~The one-sentence "definition" that should be in italics~~.''		''Cases where games falsely claim games are over to players.''

	~~This pattern is a still a stub~~.		Many games make player experience game over events. Those that do have the option to trick players by including [[Fake Game Overs]] to trick players into experiencing that they've failed only to then reveal that gameplay actually continues. TV Tropes discussed this pattern under the name "Fission Mailed"<ref name="tvtropes"/>. It is also discussed in Zagal ''et al.''<ref name="zagal"/> as part of discussing definitions of dark game design patterns.
