Bosses are enemies that fight you at the end of a level or at a significant point in the story.
A boss fight is a culminating challenge that pits the player against one or more enemies representing a greater threat and/or difficulty than those previously faced. These scenarios typically feature unique antagonists.
The continue is a classic gaming concept, and usually arises when the player "dies" or fails in the game. Usually some loss is tied to a continue, in a form of a "life" or something of other value.
An organism consisting of both natural and artificial systems.
Enemies that prefer to keep a distance to the ground, and swoop down occasionally to do some damage.
A frog is a small and usually green amphibian that can swim, hop, and ribbit. Sadly, most of them aren't princes.
It's arguably the one move that symbolizes the medium to those outside it. The ability to jump, be it onto a building, a platform, or a skull, is one of the all time most important abilities ever put in a video game.
The concept of lives in video games evolved to let the player get a second chance after failing once. The most recognizable symbol is the heart.

These are often a departure from the conventional gameplay of a game. There have also been compilations; games including only minigames. The Mario Party series has a lot of minigames, too!
Power Ups can be used to give the controlling character, or any other character, temporary or permanent upgrades.
If a person is made of metal and has circuitry instead of a circulatory system, then their game belongs on this list.
Side-scrolling games present the world as viewed perpendicular to the direction the characters are facing on screen. With a heavy focus on lateral movement, objectives are often met by moving from one end of a stage to the other.
An eight legged arachnid. Some make webs to catch prey and some are poisonous. None have made a web grand enough to be called a parlor, though.
A game perspective that views the action from above, commonly at a fixed position and/or rotation.
Weapons can often be upgraded with new attachments, augmentations, or magical enchantments. These upgrades result in the original item being more powerful than originally intended.
A wheelman is a professional driver for hire, capable of performing high-risk evasive maneuvers. Jobs usually consist of, but are not limited to, delivery or getaway missions.
Yetis are a race of mythological creatures. They are typically large, white-furred humanoids with sharp teeth and claws.
