Why these games appear

How entries qualify

Fighting built around movement across platforms, accumulating damage or controlling space, and knocking opponents out of the arena.

Include when

Assign Platform Fighter when fighting built around movement across platforms, accumulating damage or controlling space, and knocking opponents out of the arena. This must be a sustained, defining part of play rather than an isolated mode or sequence.

Leave out when

Do not assign Platform Fighter from theme, presentation, camera, or a minor mechanic alone; its defining interaction and progression pattern must recur through the core game.
