* In the story ''[http://www.gamebooks.org/show_item.php?id=913 Under Dragon's Wing]'', the [[mook]]s were "magma men" - living creatures that were either made of lava or lived in it. Never mind that for them, walking on land would be like us strolling about on Pluto.
* Strangely enough, ''[[Dungeons and& Dragons]]'' 3.5 plays this trope straight but averts [[Convection, Schmonvection]] - there are rules for ongoing damage just for being ''near'' lava, but swimming in lava is perfectly possible as long as you can survive the damage received per round.
** It also a type of shark that lived in molten lava.
** 4th edition outright averts it. The rules are "If you touch it and aren't fully immune to fire, you die." No damage. Outright death.
Line 146:
* ''[[Banjo-Kazooie]] Nuts & Bolts'': The first level has lava inside a volcano that is just water with a different color. [[Justified Trope|It fits the theme, however, of a level with inflatable trees, clouds moved by a water mill, and a horizon provided by LCD screens.]]
* In ''[[Fate]]'', lava encountered in the Dungeon is a recolor of water. You can catch fish in it.
* In ''[[StarcraftStarCraft]] II'' one of the missions features "tides" of lava that repeatedly wash over the lower grounds of the area and then retreat without a trace.
* Subverted in ''[[Mortal Kombat: Deception]]''. One Death Trap is a lava pit and when knocked into it your opponent still has time to make gurgling sounds as they melt in the lava. The same goes for [[Hollywood Acid|the acid pit]].
* It's possible that it's not even supposed to be lava, but at any rate the Last Cave in ''[[Cave Story]]'' has pits filled with a red liquid that damages you. Aside from its color and its ability to damage you, it is identical to the water found elsewhere in the game.
* ''[[Super Mario 64]]'' had ''translucent'' red lava. Partially averted in ''[[Super Mario Sunshine]]'' and ''[[Super Mario Galaxy]]'' with their opaque lava, but objects and enemies still fall right through it like water.
