Computer games

• In pencil and paper games and computer and video games, an item is an object within the game world that can be collected by a player- or non-player character. Items are most often beneficial to the player character, but some games contain detrimental items. An example of this is a cursed piece of armor that confers a negative bonus to the wearer, and cannot be removed until the curse itself is lifted - the means to do this may be costly or require a special item. Some items may also be of absolutely no value to the player.
  Common video game items include:
  • 1-ups or continues, giving the player character "extra lives" and allowing them to continue after getting killed. 1-ups usually come in the form of the main character's face (or to a lesser extent, the text "1UP").
  • Treasure such as coins, gems or jewelry. These are often used to determine the player's score or to exchange for other, better items.
  • Medicine, food or energy containers, which give the player extra health or defensive ability.
  • Equipment, such as armor that can be worn for protection, or weapons used for combat. In addition, these weapons may require collectable ammunition.
  • Quest items (also known as plot items, or key items) are required to complete several games.
