What is "life"?
In gaming, life refers to the number of chances or lives a player has in a game before they lose or are forced to restart. Many games, especially older arcade games, use a system where a player starts with a certain number of lives, which decrease each time they fail, such as by losing a battle or falling into a trap. When all lives are lost, the player may have to restart the level or game from the beginning or reach a game over screen. Some games also feature ways to earn extra lives, giving players additional chances to continue playing.
