A Game Over is a term in nearly every Mario Game, given to the player when they run out of lives. Usually, they cannot continue and must restart the game, but can still often load their progress. In few cases, they cannot load any progress at all and a Game Over can be more of a big deal than in other games.

The game over screen differs from game to game, but the text is usually always against a black screen and playing background music that seems to be mocking the player.
