== [[Web Comics]] ==

** Besides the page quote, it's also lampshaded in a dream/hallucination Belkar has about Lord Shojo telling him he needs to play "The Game" (basically that he needs to at least pretend to go along with people's rules) and Belkar briefly thought he meant the whole webcomic is a [[Deep-Immersion Gaming]] of some players' campaign.

* ''[[Goblins]]'' plays with this, with a "player character" cleric worshiping "the dungeon master" as a god. One character didn't die from an injury until they realized that Mage Armor didn't grant damage reduction. [[Word of God]] is that their world runs according to a heavily [[House Rules|houseruled]] D&D ruleset, and that all combat results are legitimate under these altered rules.

* [[Captain SNES]] has a few of these, due to the fact that said universes [[Trapped in TV Land|are actual video games.]]

** It even goes further : some items allow characters to carry over ''their'' RPG mechanics to other worlds. For instance, when [[Chrono Trigger|Crono]], who can battle on the overworld thanks to a [[Applied Phlebotinum|Reality Stabilization Belt]] and has a really fast ATB gauge, came to the ''[[Final Fantasy IV]]'' world, [[Game Breaker|he became essentially a killing god.]]

* ''[[Code Monkeys]]'' has life bars and things like that, though they don't mean anything.
