* In a horror-themed level late in ''VideoGame/PizzaTower'', HostileAnimatronics chase you through a SuckECheeses. If you're caught, they'll [[JumpScare leap at the screen and maim you horribly]], stuffing you into a tiny animatronic suit (or, if you're playing as The Noise, [[spoiler:killing you outright]]). A secret animation has a small chance of replacing the standard jumpscares, though - sometimes, you'll instead see your character and the bots wearing lederhosen and celebrating {{Oktoberfest}}, accompanied by yodeling. You'll still come out of it horribly maimed.

* ''[[VideoGame/DragonBallZBudokai Dragon Ball Z: Burst Limit]]'' attempts to implement this mid-gameplay with the Drama Pieces system, where by fulfilling certain conditions in battle, a short cutscene will play that will either buff you or debuff and damage the opponent. Too bad that ''Burst Limit'' is a '''fighting game''', meaning the entire system is counter-intuitive to gameplay flow no matter which way you spin it due to some of the pieces' requirements bordering on CripplingOverspecialization. Thankfully, they're optional in free battle, so don't be surprised if your opponents decide to forgo them altogether in the pre-fight settings.

** Occasionally weaponised by besieged cities, which would offer to surrender if relief did not arrive within a certain time limit. This was often justified by the city's commander claiming that if the city fell too soon, then his family would be executed as punishment. Of course, this also bought both sides to make proper preparations, in case the besiegers decided to try to take the city by storm.
** During Cao Cao's '''second''' invasion of Sun Quan's territory (the one people forget about in favour of the more famous Chibi campaign), both sides reached a stalemate with Cao's forces being unable to hold bridgeheads over the river due to counterattacks, while Sun's forces were unable to significantly damage Cao's naval forces. A change in the weather caused both forces to temporarily halt hostilities. Sun Quan sent [[FriendlyEnemy a letter to Cao Cao informing him that as people of the south they knew that the weather would get much worse, and so advised Cao that withdrawing his troops would likely save their lives]]. Cao actually accepted this advice and ordered his forces to retreat... but also put [[TheDragon Xiahou Dun]] in command of 28 separate armies all along the river.
