Game Types
In the standard game of Q-ZAR, called Energize, the player is given a certain number of lives. Once a player runs out of lives, they may gain a new set by going to one of their team's Energizers, but lose individual score points doing so. Eliminator is similar to Energize, except players only have the lives they start with. Once a player runs out of lives, he or she is eliminated from the game, eliminator require reloading after every life lost. Supercharge is a variant of Energize usually played by experienced players. In it, players must tag five opponents before they are able to de-activate their opponent's headquarters. Stun is used for beginning players; it is the same as Energize except players have infinite lives (technically players have infinite lives in Energize, but in Energize, they do not get them all at once). Battlefield is another variation where mines (which are unused packs) are placed around the arena as obstacles. A gauntlet game is played by one person. Their goal is to de-activate both energizers as much as they can.
Many combinations of game types, game options and arena lighting and positioning can create themed games.

Famous quotes containing the words game and/or types:
“Vanessa wanted to be a ballerina. Dad had such hopes for her.... Corin was the academically brilliant one, and a fencer of Olympic standard. Everything was expected of them, and they fulfilled all expectations. But I was the one of whom nothing was expected. I remember a game the three of us played. Vanessa was the President of the United States, Corin was the British Prime Minister—and I was the royal dog.”
—Lynn Redgrave (b. 1943)
“He’s one of those know-it-all types that, if you flatter the wig off him, he chatter like a goony bird at mating time.”
—Michael Blankfort. Lewis Milestone. Johnson (Reginald Gardner)
