The goal of trying to avoid being killed by game events or the actions of other players or agents in a game.

Many games have effects that capture, destroy, kill, or eliminate game elements depending on the theme of the game. As these events are usually negative for the players who control the game elements, they have the expected goal of trying to make these units Survive.

This pattern is a still a stub.

Examples

Left 4 Dead series

Example: The players are, sooner or later, going to have all their ships destroyed in Space Invaders or Asteroids, but surviving allows the players to keep on playing to gain enough points to reach a high score position.
