Spot - Games

In game design, 'Spot' often refers to a designated area that triggers specific mechanics—a checkpoint for saving progress, a safe zone in survival games, or an interactive point for puzzles. It can symbolize discovery, marking hidden collectibles or narrative clues. Spots create spatial awareness, guiding players through levels or highlighting objectives. In multiplayer games, they become strategic positions for control or ambush. This simple concept shapes player navigation, pacing, and engagement, making spots fundamental to level design and gameplay flow across genres.
