* In ''[[Neverwinter Nights 2]]'', Myrkul, the former god of death, is noted as being a huge fan of ironic deaths. Fittingly, you can [[Deader Than Dead|utterly annihilate]] him using [[Cursed with Awesome|the powers his curse gave you]].
* Volgin, the [[Psycho Electro]] of ''[[Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater]]'', gets killed by lightning. Naked Snake lampshades the irony of the situation.
* In ''[[The World Ends With You]]'', you end up killing Game Master Konishi with the same pin she used in order to manipulate you and your partner. In fact, due to the way the boss fight works, it's impossible to ''not'' kill her like that.
** And a few minutes later, you find Sho Minamimoto "crunched" and added to one of his ''own'' trash heaps.

* In ''[[Heroes of Might and Magic]] IV'', Mardor, captain of the town guard of Vitross, attempts to burn necromancer Gauldoth to death when the latter is wrongfully accused of being a child murderer. Gauldoth flees the town, and returns several months later with an army which he uses to besiege and capture the town. One of his first acts as lord of Vitross is to have Mardor burned at the stake.
* In ''[[Arcanum: Of Steamworks and Magick Obscura|Arcanum]]'', Kerghan's goal is to create a technological portal that will exploit [[Magic Versus Science|the fragile balance between magic and technology]] and free him from [[Sealed Evil in a Can|the void.]] The game encourages you to destroy him with the Vendigroth Device, a technological weapon which utilises the same principle to turn his own magic against him.

* In one quest in ''[[The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim]]'' you meet a Dunmer trapped in a spider web. After killing the [[Giant Spider]] involved, he asks you to cut him loose in exchange for a [[MacGuffin]]. After you do, he shouts "[[You Fool!]]" and runs ''deeper'' into the dungeon. Should the player choose not to pursue and kill him, he wakes up [[Our Zombies Are Different|draugr]] that kill him, or failing that, steps on a pressure plate and gets splattered by a booby trap.
* This is how Deathwing meets his end in ''[[World of Warcraft]]''. The artifact he forged long ago to help him conquer the world, the Dragon Soul, is used by the heroes to kill him in the finale of ''Cataclysm''.
