-[[Rescue]] goals are [[Preventing Goals]] since they are defined by overcoming [[Guard]] goals, and these pairs are [[Excluding Goals]]. The exception to this is when the people guarding are only implied through narration and cannot actually try to hinder players during gameplay. Although the goal object of [[Rescue]] goals may be [[Characters]] or [[Units]], possibly controlled by other players, the structure of [[Rescue]] goals can in many cases be seen as struggles over [[Ownership]] (e.g., the missions in [[Counter-Strike]] with hostages).

 The means of fulfilling [[Rescue]] goals are typically being able to engage successfully in [[Combat]] with the guards or being able to avoid this by succeeding with [[Stealth]] goals. [[Rescue]] goals can also be implicit, here the [[Guard]] goals (and the guards) only need to be diegetically hinted at, and the pattern itself takes on aspects of narration and theme rather than gameplay.
-Several patterns can be used to make [[Rescue]] goals more challenging or complex. [[Alarms]] and [[Traps]] can make the process generally longer or more difficult, while [[Boss Monsters]] can be suitable if the [[Rescue]] goals should be finales of games or [[Levels]]. [[Gain Information]] goals can be required to localize those that need rescuing and be part of the rewards for completing the [[Rescue]]. [[Gain Information]] goals can also be coupled to [[Rescue]] goals as [[Supporting Goals]] related the locations of [[Alarms]], [[Enemies]], and [[Traps]] that could make the [[Rescue]] more difficult.
