{{examples}}

 

== Action Adventure ==

* In ''[[The Legend of Zelda Four Swords]]'' game, there's a mini game at the credits where you collect rupees.

 

== Action Game ==

* ''[[Devil May Cry]]'' games normally give you an infinite number of mooks to beat up, killing enough unlocks an additional scene afterwards.

* ''[[Vanquish]]'' has you shooting meteors with the development team on them.

 

== Adventure Game ==

* [[Sam and Max Freelance Police|The 1990s Sam & Max adventure game]] features a fully-playable, carnival style "shoot the targets" minigame during the end credits.

 

== Beat Em Up ==

* ''[[The Warriors (video game)|The Warriors]]'', similar to ''[[Devil May Cry]]'', featured a battle at one point in the credits. You play as Masai, and you and the Riffs beat up the Rogues.

* ''[[Bayonetta]]'' has short extra fights during the credits. You even get ranked for each one!

 

== Fighting Game ==

* In ''[[Street Fighter EX]] 3'', you can mow down an infinite number of Mooks during the end credits, including Andore from [[Final Fight]], who got bigger the more times you defeated him.

* In ''[[Ehrgeiz]]'', (a Square fighting game best known for including ''[[Final Fantasy VII]]'' characters) the credits play during the final boss battle. This is actually important to at least one ending: {{spoiler|When the boss is defeated, a number of bonus items appear, including coins, jewels, and [[Bread, Eggs, Milk, Squick|Han Dehan's severed leg]]. If you're playing as Han, your ending is determined by whether you recover his leg before the timer runs out.}}

 

== Miscellaneous Games ==

* ''[[Retro Game Challenge]]'' ends with one final shooter sequence with a 16-bit version of the ship from Cosmic Gate up against Game Master Arino.

** The sequel has a similar minigame, with the added option of being able to evade his attacks via barrel rolls and being able to collect powerups. If you chose a girl character in the beginning, you're also given the option of using autofire by pressing Y.

 

== Platform Game ==

* ''[[Super Mario Galaxy 2]]'' allows you to run around as Mario in moving dioramas of some of the levels. Once you have all 120 stars, {{spoiler|you can use a Bee Mushroom to fly around the levels and even fly off the screen and die.}}

* In the credits for the [[Wii]] version of ''[[Sonic Colors]]'', you can use the homing attack and various Wisp powers to attack the names displayed and get rings. You even get extra lives for your rings at the end.

 

== Puzzle Game ==

* ''[[Meteos]]'' lets you play a game with tiny blocks during the credits- any Meteos launched here count towards fusion.

 

== Rhythm Game ==

** This gets funnier on later versions where the song is still there, and ''still uses IIDX 16's credit roll!'' You'd think they would have replaced it with a "generic" movie on IIDX 17, wouldn't they?

* Some of the ''[[Rhythm Heaven]]'' games have this. ''Rhythm Heaven'' for the DS had the minigame "Airboarders", and ''Rhythm Heaven Fever'' had a remake of "Night Walk" from the original ''Rhythm Tengoku'' for the Gameboy Advance.

 

== Role Playing Game ==

* ''[[Final Fantasy]] Fables: [[Chocobo Tales]]'' has a minigame where you have to tap the letter "O" where-ever it appears in the credits, while trying to avoid other letters. You have to figure this out for yourself, though.

* The first ''[[Boktai]]'' game had one of these every second clear of the game if {{spoiler|Otenko is saved}}, consisting of Django picking up items while dodging bombs. Par for the game, you get better items and get faster the stronger the sun and the more items you pick up without hitting a bomb.

 

== Space Shooter ==

* ''[[Star Soldier]]'' on the PSP allowed you to shoot the credits for points. You could also blow up and lose your power ups (but never your lives).

 

== Stealth Based Game ==

* In ''[[Hitman]]: Blood Money'', you play the last level over the credits, after {{spoiler|Number 47 wakes up from his faked death and starts wasting everyone at his funeral.}}

* ''[[Assassin's Creed]] 2'' throws you out of the Animus when the credits begin and {{spoiler|you fight as Desmond, now having a hidden blade and all of Ezio's abilities, some Abstergo guards, when the game leaves you at a cliffhanger. Still, the credits roll for quite some time even after the level has been beaten.}}

 

== Survival Horror ==

* ''[[House of the Dead|The Typing of the Dead]]'': typing out the names of the creators listed in the credits will make dancing zombies jump out from the containers.

** Typing the entire credits and freeing all the zombies unlocks the [[New Game+]] features (such as AI partners/opponents for "two-player" mode).

 

== Third Person Shooter ==

* In ''[[Kid Icarus: Uprising|Kid Icarus Uprising]]'', you can shoot the names to turn them red, and it counts how many you get. One of the treasure hunt goals is to get at least a certain number.

 

== Visual Novel ==

* During the credits after Case 5 of the first ''[[Ace Attorney]]'' game, you can play a little version of the fingerprinting mini-game, allowing you to see some concept art of each of the characters.

 

== Web Games ==
