Some games fall into both categories, such as [[Dream Factory]] / [[Square Co.]]'s ''[[The Bouncer]]''. Note: Games are in listed in a "'''''Common English Title/Alternate Title'' 'series' - Developer'''" format, where applicable. {{inc-vg}} ==Beat 'em ups== [[Beat 'em up]]s pit a fighter or group of fighters against many underpowered enemies. Gameplay usually spans many levels, with most levels ending in an enemy [[Boss (video games)|boss]].
