* The ''VideoGame/FiveNightsAtFreddys'' games have a few of these:

** "An Honest Mistake": While secluded, kick someone out who did not have bubonic plague (''The Reaper's Due'' DLC)

** "Aptly Named": Die of the bubonic plague (''TRD'')

** From ''VideoGame/FreddyFazbearsPizzeriaSimulator'', the bankrupt ending, requiring you to run out of cash:
--->''"You gave it your best shot. You went all in. You put all your eggs in one basket, and did the unthinkable: you ran out of cash. While we encourage entrepreneurs to follow their dreams, [[KnowWhenToFoldEm we also recognize a lost cause when we see one]]. There are no do-overs, and we trust that you know your way out. But before you go, take this Certificate of Bankruptcy. [[GetOut Now do everyone a favor, and get lost]]."''
** From the same game is the mediocrity certificate, which requires you to buy/salvage absolutely nothing:
--->''"Congratulations! You've completed a full week on the job, [[SoOkayItsAverage and you've done it in such a lackluster way that no one is proud or disappointed]]. It's a fine line to walk, but you did it, completing your job with such an efficient level of laziness [[TooIncompetentToOperateABlanket that we're surprised you're able to dress yourself in the morning]]. While such a minimalist work ethic is rare, it doesn't mean that we want you back. In fact, it means you should look for employment elsewhere. But before you go, take this Certificate of Mediocrity. You should be proud. You stood on two feet, and convinced someone that you could do something, when in fact you couldn't. [[GetOut Now get out]]."''
** As a general example, every game with an achievement system has an achievement which requires you to get {{Jumpscare}}d, and these have the lowest Xbox score across the board, with ''VideoGame/FiveNightsAtFreddys2[='s=]'' "You Failed" achievement having a paltry ''15'' points, with the second lowest, "One Night at Freddy's" having 60 points.

* The ''[[GameMod Pepega Edition]]'' from ''VideoGame/NeedForSpeedProStreet'' has a one achievement named "Captain Slow" in which requires you to complete a race using the 1886 Mercedes-Benz Patent Motorwagen, a 19th century vintage carriage that only has [=1HP=] with a max speed of 11 km/h making it one of the slowest vehicles in the entire racing video gaming that made debut and only in ''[[VideoGame/GranTurismo Gran Turismo 4]]''.

* In ''VideoGame/CoffeeTalk'', there are achievements for messing up your order once and throwing away 25 drinks.

** ''VisualNovel/Apollo JusticeAceAttorney Trilogy'' continues the tradition, as "One Jurist's Verdict" requires getting the bad ending in ''Apollo Justice''.

* ''[[Franchise/AceAttorney Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney]] [[CompilationRerelease Trilogy]]'' has two notable ones: "Please Turn In Your Badge" for answering "Mia Fey" (your mentor) when asked who the defendant is in the first case, and "Justice Ill Served" for getting the [[NonStandardGameOver bad ending]] in ''[[VisualNovel/PhoenixWrightAceAttorneyJusticeForAll Justice For All]]''.

* ''VideoGame/BlackMesa'' has achievements for getting killed by your own snarks, getting killed by [[TheGoomba a headcrab]], cooking a grenade until it explodes in your hand, overcharging the Tau Cannon (which inflicts massive damage on the user), getting zapped by the Anti-Mass Spectrometer, getting flung into oblivion by the Gonarch, and even drowning in the Lambda Reactor Coolant System.

* ''VideoGame/TormentedSouls'' has the achievement simply called "Death", where you walk into a unlit area and [[NonStandardGameOver get attacked by...something]]

* In ''VideoGame/LittleBigPlanet 2'', there's a trophy called "1,440 Minutes of Create," which is earned by spending a total of 24 hours in Create Mode. The [[UsefulNotes/PlayStationVita Vita]] version changes this to "Get a Life". In both of those games, there's also trophies for dying 20 times in one story level, and pins (in-game achievements) for things like dying a certain number of times, coming in last place in races, drowning, killing multiple [[{{NPC}} Sackbots]] in the story levels, slapping other players to their deaths, or popping yourself to retry. "It's really not too bad..."

* In ''VideoGame/{{Warhawk}}'', the UsefulNotes/PlayStation3 version has several of the bronze trophies be awarded for such dubious feats as stepping on 5 land mines, or flying into your own aerial mine.

* The UsefulNotes/Xbox360's AchievementSystem assigns achievements an arbitrary point value, which is tallied as a "gamerscore" on the user's profile. A few games took advantage of this to create mocking "negative achivements" worth ''zero'' points.
