In Video Games, a heart symbol is often used to represent someone's health or life. The Life Meter or lives counter may be made of hearts, and health-related pickups and power ups may be in the shape of hearts as well (see Heart Container). The reason for this trope is the positive connotations the heart has picked up over the millennia: "lifeblood", love, as well as being considered the most important organ by the medical community for the longest time. (It's still considered the second most important organ behind the brain, but brains are rather squicky and have different connotations entirely, mainly intellectual, so they should be mana if anythingnote Or Sanity Meter if the game has that mechanic). This is so common that some games can confuse players when hearts represent something else (such as the Castlevania games or Kid Icarus). Sub-Trope of Status Line (a display element showing the current disposition of the player, e.g. score, health, ammo, etc). Compare Heart Container, Heart Symbol, Healing Potion. |

The Jetsons games: In Cogswell's Caper, George Jetson's health is measured by a row of red hearts, which can be recovered will smaller hearts. Heart Icons extends the player's health by one heart up to a total of five. The Jetsons: Invasion of the Planet Pirates follows the same system as Cogswell's Caper, this time with a new large heart power up that fully restores the player's health, though not extending it. The Heart Icons add an additional heart. |

In Super Mario Land and Super Mario Land 2: 6 Golden Coins, hearts replace 1-up mushrooms in their role as extra lives. This is probably due to color limitations: how would you distinguish between a normal mushroom and a green Mushroom? In the latter, one of the bonus minigames at the end of the level makes it possible to pick up a 3up, which is a heart with a "3" on it. In Wario Land: Super Mario Land 3, hearts alone don't restore extra lives; instead, the player has "Heart Points", and collecting hearts adds ten heart points, while defeating an enemy adds one heart point. Collecting 100 hearts adds an extra life. | |

In Primal Rage, your lifebar is represented as a major artery ending in a beating realistic heart, and your stun gauge is represented as a spinal cord ending in a brain: when the stun gauge is depleted, the brain crackles with electricity, and when you take damage, the heart beats faster. If you lose a round, the heart explodes and the brain is fried to ashes. | |

In The Flintstones: The Rescue of Dino & Hoppy, Fred starts out with three hearts in his health bar and can extend it up to five by collecting steak ribs power-ups. Finding a heart power-up will restore Fred's health bar to its full extent. If Fred loses a life, his health bar will decrease by one until it gets back to three hearts. | |

The Legend of Zelda: The Life Meter and the Heart Containers. The original Zelda is the very first game to incorporate the trope and the franchise has been using it since; small hearts recover health and the bigger Heart Container extends Link's health meter. Zelda II: The Adventure of Link is the only one not to have one—opting for a Life Meter instead (Heart Containers still extend it, however). | |

In Babs' Big Break for the Game Boy, the player starts out with two hearts. A little heart will add one heart to their health bar, while a big heart will extend it up to three. Completing a level will reset your health bar back to two hearts. Playing on hard mode will subtract one heart from your health bar. | |

Super Mario Bros.: In Super Mario Bros. 2, hearts restore health, and the Super Mario All-Stars and Super Mario Advance remakes use hearts for the health meter (the original NES version uses hexagons instead). In Super Mario Land and Super Mario Land 2: 6 Golden Coins, hearts replace 1-up mushrooms in their role as extra lives. This is probably due to color limitations: how would you distinguish between a normal mushroom and a green Mushroom? In the latter, one of the bonus minigames at the end of the level makes it possible to pick up a 3up, which is a heart with a "3" on it. In Wario Land: Super Mario Land 3, hearts alone don't restore extra lives; instead, the player has "Heart Points", and collecting hearts adds ten heart points, while defeating an enemy adds one heart point. Collecting 100 hearts adds an extra life. In Super Mario Odyssey, hearts are used to recover health, with a special Life-Up Heart, a larger heart that adds another three hit points to Mario's life meter. In the Paper Mario games, your health is explicitly called "Heart Points", and picking up hearts that enemies drop refills it a little — both you and your partner in Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door. There are also Recovery Blocks which refills your Heart Points (and Flower Points) if you hit it, though you're charged coins for the service in the second game. Super Princess Peach uses incremental hearts as its health meter, with two different sized heart collectables to refill it. Small hearts restore half a heart (one hit), while big ones restore a full heart, or two-hit points. Princess Peach: Showtime!: Peach is given a set of five hearts to use (players may optionally use a charm to get eight), and can restore it by gathering hearts through performing actions or finding them in spots. The heart pickups will grant ten coins if Peach grabs them while at full health. Luigi's Mansion (Series): In all the games, Luigi's health is represented by a heart that shrinks as the character's HP decreases. The health consists of 100 HP, and can be replenished by gathering stray hearts (their size determines how much they'll heal Luigi). Mario Party 10: In Bowser Party, each member of Team Mario has their health represented by how many hearts they have. They can collect more over the course of the game, and they lose them when they take damage during the Bowser mini-games. If a player's health reaches zero, they will be removed from the team's vehicle, and will not be able to roll to move forward on their turn. Certain minigames give all players a health bar with three hearts, with one heart being taken away whenever a player takes damage. Running out of hearts will result in that player being eliminated, and in the event that multiple players survive to the end of the game, the tie will be broken by whoever has more hearts. Minigames using this health system include Snake Block Party, Peepa Panic, Beeline Shrine, Paintball Battle, and Bullet Bill Bullies. |

Tiny Toon Adventures games: In the 1991 NES game of the same name, everything kills the player with one hit, unless the player has a Heart Container in their inventory. If they already have one in their inventory when they find another, they will get an extra life (of which, they can hold up to nine). The sequel, Trouble in Wackyland, has a three-heart health bar. However, heart power-ups are very rare to find in the game. In Babs' Big Break for the Game Boy, the player starts out with two hearts. A little heart will add one heart to their health bar, while a big heart will extend it up to three. Completing a level will reset your health bar back to two hearts. Playing on hard mode will subtract one heart from your health bar. In the sequel, Montana's Movie Madness, the player stars out with three hearts in their health bar, and heart power-ups are only accessible through a bonus roullette. If it lands on Babs, she will extend the player's health bar to the maximum of four, and if it lands on Plucky or Hamton, they will restore the health bar to its full extent. Like in Babs' Big Break, completing a level will reset the health bar back to three hearts, and playing on hard mode will subtract one heart from it. In Buster Busts Loose if played on Children or Normal mode, the player starts out with three hearts in their health bar, and can extend it up to five by finding crystal carrot power-ups. Completing a level will reset the health bar back to three, and playing on Hard mode subtracts two hearts. In Buster's Hidden Treasure, the player starts out with three hearts in their health bar and can extend it up to five by finding bell power-ups. Unlike Babs' Big Break, Montana's Movie Madness, and Buster Busts Loose, the player's health bar will retain its extra hearts after a level is completed. However, if the player loses a life, their health bar will reset back to three. |

Minecraft uses hearts to represent your life meter. If you're riding a horse, its health bar is rendered in horse butts (which are of course heart-shaped). In Hardcore, these hearts have menacing eyes (or maybe blood vessels), which is a worrying reminder of the finality of death in this difficulty. | |

A pixelated heart represents health in No More Heroes and its sequels, with the pixels being the real units of health. In the first game, the max health increases change the color of the center of the heart, creating layers of pixels with each color. | |

In Pleasant Goat and Big Big Wolf: The Season Towns, those who are in the video game-inspired Season Towns are given Guardian Stones, which create a protective barrier for them whenever they are attacked by someone; the Guardian Stones also disintegrate when they are used, and there's a finite number of them. While the Guardian Stones are not heart-shaped themselves, they do have a heart symbol etched into them. | |

Blood (1997) uses "life essences", which look like anatomically correct hearts, as a health pickup. Blood II: The Chosen continues this and goes further with the super-health item, the Life Seed, depicted as a larger heart floating above a sigil on the ground. | |

Crimson Glaive Sigma features a heart icon next to your life bar that fills up when your health is low or when you hit enemies with your Alpha Gun. When it fills up completely, it's emptied and you gain a hit point. Destroying a medical drone or activating a save point will also release a pickup resembling three spinning blue hearts that home in on you, giving you a complete life refill. | |

Mario Party 10: In Bowser Party, each member of Team Mario has their health represented by how many hearts they have. They can collect more over the course of the game, and they lose them when they take damage during the Bowser mini-games. If a player's health reaches zero, they will be removed from the team's vehicle, and will not be able to roll to move forward on their turn. Certain minigames give all players a health bar with three hearts, with one heart being taken away whenever a player takes damage. Running out of hearts will result in that player being eliminated, and in the event that multiple players survive to the end of the game, the tie will be broken by whoever has more hearts. Minigames using this health system include Snake Block Party, Peepa Panic, Beeline Shrine, Paintball Battle, and Bullet Bill Bullies. |

Terraria not only uses hearts to denote your HP, but you can increase your maximum health by mining and collecting underground "heart crystals", and in the later game by harvesting heart-shaped life fruits in the jungle. Most enemies can also drop heart pickups that instantly recover some health. | |
