About "Groundhog Day" Loop: it clearly says "Do you want to go back to past" if you fail the quest.

Well, it asks you (the player), not the character. It's no different than saving/loading the game.

Well, I always thought that it character who goes back in time. It doesn't just asks "Would you like to start over"

The following entry relating to this series is on Prison Episode:


  • In Space Rangers 2 engaging in criminal activity may result in the character being sentenced to several months in jail. This triggers one of the game's many text-based minigames. Throughout his stay the character can join a fight club, race cockroaches, become a stool pigeon for the guards and, if he plays his cards right, come out much richer than he was going in. Granted, he may also die, but that's a minor detail.

Now, bear in mind that Prison Episode is defined as a prison-centered installment of a series not otherwise about prison; this is more so a minigame.

Not that this would disqualify it; in that trope's discussion page, battosaijoe claimed that things like levels should count if it makes up a significant enough portion of the gameplay, and kjnoren claimed to have looked through the video game section, removing the more obvious non-examples.

In any case, would you say it qualifies?

From trope description:

It might be an episode in a serial, a sequence in a video game, or a few chapters in a book.
Definitely fits.

It can take a while to get through this sequence too, and it's a definite change in the normal pace of the game, so I'd say it definitely qualifies.
