History Main / CompletionMeter

A feature common in video games that focus on collecting stuff and/or earning achievements, letting the player know how many pieces of hidden content ([[CollectionSidequest collectables]], [[UnlockableContent unlockables]], etc.) the game has in total, how many the player has already found, and, by simple math, how many are still out there. Those are often found in the game's pause menu or file select screen, and will show up in the ending as one of the factors used to grade your overall performance.

* ''VideoGame/CastlevaniaSymphonyOfTheNight'' features one that keeps track of the number of rooms you have visited, rather than item completion, and it can go as high as 100.3%. But then you defeat [[spoiler:Richter]] the ''right'' way, and you unlock the [[LevelUpsideDown Inverted Castle]]'', and you can get as high as 200.6% normally (utilizing glitches to explore spaces outside the usual boundaries can get you as high as 215%), though you get the best ending by having higher than 195% and defeating Dracula in the Inverted Castle.

* ''Franchise/CrashBandicoot'': the first game only has "Great! But you missed X crates" when you don't manage to crash all crates in a level, which gives you a gem; you need all gems to reach the secret second ending. The second game gets better at this, showing how much crystals/gems you need to get in each level, amount of crates you've broken and how many they are in each level (the latter only at the end of levels), and you can also see your completion percentage by pausing the game/going to the load/save screen. The third game and all of [[VideoGame/CrashBandicootNSaneTrilogy N. Sane Trilogy]] also show the amount of crates in a level anywhere (not just in the end) by pressing Triangle.

* [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scott_Adams_(game_designer) Scott Adams']] adventure games (''Adventureland'', ''Pirate Adventure'', etc.) had a counter with your current score and the total number of points available (e.g. 5/20). Your score was based on how many items of treasure you had found.
* Ditto in the earlier ''VideoGame/LeisureSuitLarry'' games.

* ''VideoGame/AlphaProtocol'' tracks how complete your dossier files are.

* ''VideoGame/{{Antechamber}}'': The room you start in acts as a overworld map, a [[BreakingTheFourthWall settings page]], a place to track all the quotes you've found so far, and the place you can [[ResetButton escape to anytime when stuck]].
