* Pick an RPG. Any RPG and any medium. Sooner or later a party will wander where they aren't supposed to, as often as not resulting in Total Party Kill.
** Survival in ''[[Call of Cthulhu (tabletop game)]]'' boils down to a few simple rules: Don't ''touch'' anything, don't ''read'' anything, don't ''look'' at anything, just keep your head down and ''keep walking''. And that's assuming you even left your house in the first place, ya shmuck.
** It's such a well known thing within the horror or mystery genres of [[Tabletop Games]] that it's progressed to the point where several games, such as ''Trail Of Cthulhu'' or mystery/horror variants of FATE, have mechanics to encourage/push [[Genre Savvy]] players away from averting this trope. It makes a dull game if everybody does the "smart" thing and decides that they don't want to leave the house after all.
