Most Game & Watch titles have two modes: Game A and Game B, the latter usually being a faster, more difficult version of Game A. In the Micro VS. System series of games, such as ''[[Donkey Kong 3 (Game & Watch)|Donkey Kong 3]]'' and ''[[Donkey Kong Hockey]]'', Game B is the two-player mode. A few Game & Watch games such as ''[[Super Mario Bros. (Game & Watch)|Super Mario Bros.]]'' do not have a Game B. The Game & Watch games normally become harder as the player progresses, but the gameplay usually slows down every 100 [[point]]s the player receives. The games usually end when the player receives three misses (generally meaning "lives that are lost"). In most games, misses can be removed if the player reaches a certain number of points; in some games, doing so with no misses starts a period called Chance Time, in which the score increases either temporarily or until a miss is made. The maximum score the player can get in most games is 999 points. Getting a higher score resets the score tally to zero points. | Most Game & Watch titles have two modes: Game A and Game B, the latter usually being a faster, more difficult version of Game A.
