The players in the game occasionally have players battle to the death or some other form of deadly challenges. There also events where players are teleported to different areas in order to play, such as clans gaining territory and defending it for 30 minutes.
* ''[[Ingress The Animation]]'' is the [[Animated Adaptation]] of the same mobile phone game. The app is a cover for the two factions of the Enlightened and Resistance to wage their battle through the public. It is used to collect XM or 'eXotic Matter' that comes from another dimension. People called [[Differently-Powered Individual|Sensitives]] have abilities that can be amplified by it, especially in a Control Field of their aligned faction. They can be, however, dampened or negated if they are near an enemy Portal and Control Field.
* ''[[Real Account]]'' has the titular app which is also called Re-aca is a popular social media application. It was a normal app until it was used where people's minds are transported to a virtual space, and their real bodies lay unconscious. They are then forced to participate in a game that depends on the number of followers they may have. If the participant dies during the game, the person dies in the real world along with the followers. They can also die if their follower count falls to zero, but then the followers won't die.

Others who use the app get possessed by a monster that only Yurina can kill.
