Some video games feature a [[Boss Rush]], which is when you have to fight several bosses in short succession. Boss Games take this to the next level: The whole thing is ''nothing'' but boss battles with sometimes the occasional breather segment in between. The polar opposite is [[Mooks but No Bosses]], and the extreme end of [[Easy Levels Hard Bosses]]. [[Boss Only Level]] is a [[Sub -Trope]], in which only ''one'' level is just a boss.
 
Boss Games come in three flavors:

== Type 1: ==

* ''[[Contra]]: Hard Corps'' and ''Shattered Soldier''.
* ''[[Aero Fighters]] 3''
