In Real Life, conveyor belts, escalators, moving walkways and similar conveyances are part of certain specialized environments, and serve the function of moving things in a convenient direction. They are most commonly seen in shopping centers, checkouts, transportation hubs and, or course, various factories. In video games, conveyor belts can show up anywhere: in the middle of a forest, in underground catacombs, etc. Even if they show up in factories, these belts still don't move in a logical direction. They carry pedestrians against dead ends of a corridor, into Spikes of Doom or drop them down Bottomless Pits, or a Lava Pit. Sometimes, multiple conveyor belts move in opposite directions to trap players. In short, the conveyor belt in video games often serves the purpose of hindering instead of helping its user. This is almost always a sub-trope of Malevolent Architecture. (It could be some sort of Benevolent Architecture, but don't count on it.) Justified by the Rule of Fun, though it can get irritating on occasion, particularly when used with other, nastier hazards like Spikes of Doom, Smashing Hallway Traps, Descending Ceilings and the like. In top-down games, a conveyor belt will often act as a Broken Bridge, going too fast for you to be able to run against. It's a one-way trip unless you can find a way to shut it off, reverse it, outrun its effect, or somehow become immune to its effects. A staple element to both 2D and 3D platformers. While the first known instance of conveyor belt hazard appeared in Donkey Kong back in 1981, its usage started to become widespread from the era of third generation of gaming consoles onward. Out-of-place conveyor belts are not limited to platform games, most commonly also appearing in first-person shooters and puzzle games. In Factory Building Games with conveyor belts, however, the objective for the player is to defy this trope, making sure that conveyor belts transport materials and products as efficiently as possible. Occasionally overlaps with Conveyor Belt o' Doom, which may get adapted into this trope in Licensed Games. Common feature of an Eternal Engine level. |

The Sonic the Hedgehog CD level Quartz Quadrant contains conveyor belts that scroll with no particular rhyme or reason. There are places where adjacent belts scroll towards each other. The boss of that level makes full use of an Inconveniently-Placed Conveyor Belt to throw you into Spikes of Doom. The conveyor belt is actually the key to defeating the boss, as the belt wears away at the bottom of Robotnik's machine. Sonic simply needs to keep the conveyor belt going, while avoiding the bombs that Robotnik drops from the ceiling. | |

Sonic 3: Inverted in Hydrocity Zone. Sonic doesn't run on conveyor belts; he hangs from them, and uses them to get to places he couldn't reach without their presence. Some of the conveyor belts in Death Egg Zone are moving platforms which Sonic must take to progress, and they're designed to change direction whenever it's most inconvenient in order to push him into wall spikes or throw him into big ol' bug zappers. |

The FireCage in An Untitled Story is a factory that is full of conveyor belts that will convey careless players not only into pits of lava but also into streams of electricity. There are also conveyor belts on the ceilings which can be used with the ability to stick to the ceilings; these aren't any more convenient since the player should at that point also have an ability to slide on the ceiling on their own. | |

New Super Mario Bros.: All games have fortresses and castles with conveyor belts (and in New Super Mario Bros. 2 the castle of World Flower has switches that allow them to change their orientation). Sometimes it's not the conveyors themselves which provide the inconvenience, but the steel boxes being transported on them (as jumping over them is harder this way than if they were on the static floor). Also, in New Super Mario Bros. Wii, several ground pieces spin, and usually hide pipes from rushing players. | |

Castlevania: Aria of Sorrow: Conveyor belts are not all too common in the game, but once you meet them (in the clock tower), they make you wish they did not exist. The belts alone are not dangerous, it is the combination of being attacked, risk of getting stoned and landing in a spike pit. Not fun especially since a stoned character takes a crapload of damage from the spike pits. The things return with a vengeance in Castlevania: Portrait of Ruin, and throw in collapsing platforms to make it even worse! | |

Super Mario 64 has conveyor belts on Tick Tock Clock. Whether these become an ally or a hindrance will depend on the time shown in the clock of the level's entrance by the time Mario enters in.note If the minute hand points at number 3, the clock's gizmos (including the belts) will move slowly; if it points at number 6, everything will move erratically, which is by far the least desirable outcome; if it points at number 9, they will move rapidly but also in a consistent manner; if it points at number 12, everything will stay still. | |

Super Metroid: Initially, all the machinery in Wrecked Ship, including the conveyor belts in the floors, is turned off due to a lack of electrical power. But after the defeat of Phantoon, the power is restored and all conveyor belts are turned on. Depending on the direction you're going at as you navigate across the area, they either boost your speed while running or become a hindrance to deal with (even with the Speed Booster). | |

The board game Robo Rally takes place in a factory, so the belts have some reason to be there. However, some of them are arranged into swirling maelstroms of death which tip anything on them into bottomless chasms. (To say nothing of the pushers, crushers, lasers, and radioactive goo.) | |

Mario Party Advance: The minigame Dreadmill has a solo player run through a treadmill filled with spiky traps, and dodging them is difficult because the conveyor belts mess with the character's timing (not helped by some of the spikes moving back and forth as well), and they periodically reverse their respective directions as well as their speeds. In Shroom City mode, the character must make it to the end under a time limit. | |

Satisfactory: As your factory grows in size and complexity, traversing it will probably start to feel like running an obstacle course made of conveyor belts unless you did a fair bit of planning beforehand. Eventually mitigated by the ability to build elevated walkways and, later, a jetpack. | |

Some seem to be logically placed in loading areas for moving heavy items to and from storage, while others exist just to provide one-way paths blocking off sections of the factory, teasing you with their presence until you're high enough level to open the doors into those other sections. | |

Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble!: The first level in KAOS Core, "Konveyor Rope Klash", has Dixie and Diddy traverse a forest with several ropes that flow towards a specific direction, transporting the Kongs forward (though a few of them flow backwards). The high number of enemies along these ropes, especially Buzzes, makes navigation difficult, especially due to the speed of the ropes' flow. Reflexes are vital to dodge any enemy or hazard whenever required. | |

Undertale: Hotland has a lot of conveyor belts. Sometimes they're useful, as they help you get to places faster, but sometimes they're not. In some rooms, you're required to get to certain areas on one of these, but there are also lasers that will hurt you if you don't stay still, which is impossible to do on a conveyor belt. | |

Mario Party 3: In the Mr. Mover duel board, there's a large conveyor belt connecting the duelists' starter spots. Stepping on it takes the player to one of the spots, and the board's rules forbid them from trying to override it. Its direction is indicated by its current color (it will take players to the left if it's colored blue, or to the right if it's colored red), and at the start of every turn the belt will swap from one color to the other, thus also changing its direction. | |

Mario Party 4: In the minigame Money Belts, one character is placed on a pink conveyor belt above and the other three are in a longer green conveyor belt below. The objective is to avoid falling down as the conveyor belts move and drag large cookies and candy; in the process, they can grab coins and money bags. | |

Mario Party 6: The minigame Conveyor Bolt plays it straight during day, and averts it during night. During day, one player is using a hovering cloud chariot to drop lightning bolts onto the other three players, who must not only keep an eye on them to avoid electrocution, but also the incoming spikes that are protruding from the floor... which in turn is moving to the left because it's a a large conveyor belt. During night, the conveyor belt is turned off and stands still, but now the solo player must avoid the lightning bolts dropped by the other three players from their respective cloud chariots. | |

Mario Party 9: The minigame Player Conveyor challenges the players to navigate a maze of conveyor belts to reach the goal in the center. Once the player steps on a belt, they cannot move until they reach the end of it, so they must determine the correct path to take to reach the goal. Additionally, these belts can lead to Warp Pipes that bring anyone who enters them to the opposite corner, or they can lead to a ! tile that will launch anyone who steps them back to the outside of the playing field. | |

Transport belts in Factorio not only move products but also the player and enemies that stand on them, meaning careless factory layout can result in this trope. On the other hand the player can place belts to be inconvenient for the 'enemy', pushing them away from the defenses. | |

Wave Race: The original installment for the Game Boy has marked arrows in the racetracks that act like conveyors, even though they don't look like it. While they try to keep the drivers on the course, they may inadvertedly make one clash against a nearby object if they're trying to take a curve too tightly. | |

Mario vs. Donkey Kong: In the first game, Mario Factory, Mystic Forest, and Twilight City have conveyor belts: Mystic Forest introduces the Direction Switch, a button which changes the direction of all conveyor belts on the map, and the boss fights of the latter two worlds require a perfect knowledge of this mechanic (and of the time a Bob-Omb explodes after having been triggered). | |

Professor Layton and the Miracle Mask: The Toy Robot minigame has conveyor belts in many of its levels; while some of them are helpful for the player to work out the route to land exactly at the exit spot, others have only the purpose of mess up with said route, or even prevent the player from reaching the exit from certain positions. Two of the hidden levels are mazes made up entirely of these. Interestingly, the conveyors appear to be non-functional, but they do activate when the robot lands in them in its current turn's last step. | |

They are specifically modeled after the ones seen in the New subseries, and have been retroactively adapted for use in the styles of the games that didn't have them originally.

The Legend of Zelda: The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past has some dungeons with conveyor belts, and an incredibly difficult boss battle occurs on a floor that is fully made of one (and surrounded by spike traps that also move from one side to another). The Legend of Zelda: A Link Between Worlds has them only in Thieves' Hideout, though they're more manageable thanks to the switches that invert their directions. The Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening: Conveyor belts are a common asset in dungeons, but their most prominent appearance is in Key Cavern. They make combat against enemies more difficult, especially against the Pairodds due to their habit of teleporting as soon as Link approaches them and then shoot a projectile at him in retaliation. Using the Pegasus Boots (once they're acquired in this very dungeon) makes the job much easier, but until then the conveyor belts will be a hassle. The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword: The conveyor belts in Lanayru Mining Facility are first seen non-functional after many decades, like everything else in the dungeon. However, they operate once again when a Timeshift Stone regresses them in time, and while some are little more than a nuisance others can potentially drag Link into a bottomless pit. The conveyor belts in the Lanayru room in Sky Keep invert the trope: Their placement is very helpful for Link to shoot the eye targets one by one as they carry the Timeshift Orb from one side of the room to the other. |

Super Mario Bros.: Super Mario Bros. 2: The final stage includes more than a few series of conveyor belts (some Of Doom, some not). For extra difficulty, enemies are either unaffected by them, or clever enough to keep their pace when walking over them. Super Mario Bros. 3: The third fortress of World 6, as well as the one of World 8, feature conveyor belts placed above spikes or lava pits, thus making their placement very dangerous. They cease to operate when a POW switch is activated. Super Mario Land 2: 6 Golden Coins: The third stage of Mario Zone has conveyor belts in narrow passageways. Mario has to duck while being transported to avoid touching the ceiling's spikes. Super Mario 64 has conveyor belts on Tick Tock Clock. Whether these become an ally or a hindrance will depend on the time shown in the clock of the level's entrance by the time Mario enters in.note If the minute hand points at number 3, the clock's gizmos (including the belts) will move slowly; if it points at number 6, everything will move erratically, which is by far the least desirable outcome; if it points at number 9, they will move rapidly but also in a consistent manner; if it points at number 12, everything will stay still. New Super Mario Bros.: All games have fortresses and castles with conveyor belts (and in New Super Mario Bros. 2 the castle of World Flower has switches that allow them to change their orientation). Sometimes it's not the conveyors themselves which provide the inconvenience, but the steel boxes being transported on them (as jumping over them is harder this way than if they were on the static floor). Also, in New Super Mario Bros. Wii, several ground pieces spin, and usually hide pipes from rushing players. Super Mario Galaxy: Conveyor belts are frequent in the first mission of Toy Time Galaxy in the Engine, and one is also present in the third mission. They wouldn't be a big problem aside from their moderately high speed, except you have to cross them while using the difficult-to-control Spring Mushroom powerup. Super Mario 3D World: The level Bullet Bill Base in World 6 has conveyor belts in the walls instead of the floors. They're designed so Mario and his friends can climb them with the Super Bell powerup. Conveyor Belts also appear in the level Captain Toad Gets Thwomped, where they're more difficult to deal with because Captain Toad himself is slower and can't jump. Super Mario Maker: Among many other classic Mario setpieces, conveyor belts appear for their addition in levels. They are specifically modeled after the ones seen in the New subseries, and have been retroactively adapted for use in the styles of the games that didn't have them originally. Super Mario Maker 2 adds diagonal belts, as well as those whose direction can be toggled with ON and OFF switches.

Stepping on it takes the player to one of the spots, and the board's rules forbid them from trying to override it. Its direction is indicated by its current color (it will take players to the left if it's colored blue, or to the right if it's colored red), and at the start of every turn the belt will swap from one color to the other, thus also changing its direction. Mario Party 4: In the minigame Money Belts, one character is placed on a pink conveyor belt above and the other three are in a longer green conveyor belt below. The objective is to avoid falling down as the conveyor belts move and drag large cookies and candy; in the process, they can grab coins and money bags. Mario Party 6: The minigame Conveyor Bolt plays it straight during day, and averts it during night. During day, one player is using a hovering cloud chariot to drop lightning bolts onto the other three players, who must not only keep an eye on them to avoid electrocution, but also the incoming spikes that are protruding from the floor... which in turn is moving to the left because it's a a large conveyor belt. During night, the conveyor belt is turned off and stands still, but now the solo player must avoid the lightning bolts dropped by the other three players from their respective cloud chariots. Mario Party Advance: The minigame Dreadmill has a solo player run through a treadmill filled with spiky traps, and dodging them is difficult because the conveyor belts mess with the character's timing (not helped by some of the spikes moving back and forth as well), and they periodically reverse their respective directions as well as their speeds. In Shroom City mode, the character must make it to the end under a time limit. Mario Party 9: The minigame Player Conveyor challenges the players to navigate a maze of conveyor belts to reach the goal in the center. Once the player steps on a belt, they cannot move until they reach the end of it, so they must determine the correct path to take to reach the goal. Additionally, these belts can lead to Warp Pipes that bring anyone who enters them to the opposite corner, or they can lead to a ! tile that will launch anyone who steps them back to the outside of the playing field. Mario Power Tennis: One of the themed courts is made up of conveyor belts, which require you to constantly stay on the move and impart unexpected trajectories to bouncing balls.

After the first lap, these belts are prone to swapping colors and directions, so each driver has to keep an eye on when to take a different path. Mario Kart 8: Some tracks, like Cloudtop Cruise and Big Blue, have sets of conveyor belts placed beside one another and going different directions. Per function, the ones going the same direction of the course give you a slight boost; the ones going against the course slow you down slightly. |

Donkey Kong Donkey Kong: In the second stage of original arcade game (omitted from many home versions due to memory constraints), several floors are conveyor belts. By themselves, they're not very difficult to deal with, but the presence of the Evil Living Flames originating from the burning pipes complicate things, as the flames are unaffected by the belts' motion. Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble!: The first level in KAOS Core, "Konveyor Rope Klash", has Dixie and Diddy traverse a forest with several ropes that flow towards a specific direction, transporting the Kongs forward (though a few of them flow backwards). The high number of enemies along these ropes, especially Buzzes, makes navigation difficult, especially due to the speed of the ropes' flow. Reflexes are vital to dodge any enemy or hazard whenever required. Donkey Kong 64: The level Frantic Factory has conveyor belts in some sections. One of them adds trash compactors as well, so the only one who can go through them is the eponymous character when he's using the invincibility barrel ability. Mario vs. Donkey Kong: In the first game, Mario Factory, Mystic Forest, and Twilight City have conveyor belts: Mystic Forest introduces the Direction Switch, a button which changes the direction of all conveyor belts on the map, and the boss fights of the latter two worlds require a perfect knowledge of this mechanic (and of the time a Bob-Omb explodes after having been triggered). Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze: In the World 5 level (Fruity Factory), several conveyor belts transport gigantic watermelons (which are uniquely cube-shaped instead of elliptical), and some of them are placed between pits with grinders that crush other fruits. Others have large axes that cut the watermelons, which make them even more dangerous. |

Fall Guys: Ultimate Knockout has yellow floors with pointing arrows that move your Fall Guy (usually away from the finish line). The "Fruit Chute" event is the most extreme example: most of the course is a giant sloped conveyor belt, and players are bombarded with giant fruit that will knock them down and allow the conveyor to move them far away while they can't do anything until they get up. | |

The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword: The conveyor belts in Lanayru Mining Facility are first seen non-functional after many decades, like everything else in the dungeon. However, they operate once again when a Timeshift Stone regresses them in time, and while some are little more than a nuisance others can potentially drag Link into a bottomless pit. The conveyor belts in the Lanayru room in Sky Keep invert the trope: Their placement is very helpful for Link to shoot the eye targets one by one as they carry the Timeshift Orb from one side of the room to the other. | |

Chip's Challenge: Among the hazards is conveyer belts (known in-game as force floors), frequently leading either backwards in the level, or into another, more fatal hazard. But there's a powerup (suction cup shoes) that lets you negate their effects. | |

Baba is You uses the conveyor belt to introduce the "Shift" property. Due to the Rewriting Reality theme of the game, you can manipulate the level's rules to let you move belts around or apply "Shift" to other objects. The puzzle then becomes figuring out how to make these belts convenient. | |

TaskMaker: One conveyor belt shows up in the tutorial level. The game instructs you to go over to a switch to turn off the belt. Interestingly, this actual trap only shows up in one place in the game — and all it's blocking off is a small pile of Skeleton Keys amid loads of garbage. | |

Portal 2: Most conveyor belts have an ostensible function ("The Turret Redemption Lines are not rides. Please exit the Turret Redemption Line."), but one in particular, late in the game, is deliberately set up as a Death Trap. Or, as the Big Bad puts it, more of a "death option", as opposed to confronting him in his lair, where he will most definitely kill you. If you wait, he spends upwards of three or four minutes trying to convince you to fall for it, and is very pleasantly surprised if you do. | |

Sonic the Hedgehog: Scrap Brain Zone from the original Sonic the Hedgehog for both the Genesis and Gamegear have conveyors, as well as escalators (which were originally diagonal conveyors in the beta). The Sonic the Hedgehog CD level Quartz Quadrant contains conveyor belts that scroll with no particular rhyme or reason. There are places where adjacent belts scroll towards each other. The boss of that level makes full use of an Inconveniently-Placed Conveyor Belt to throw you into Spikes of Doom. The conveyor belt is actually the key to defeating the boss, as the belt wears away at the bottom of Robotnik's machine. Sonic simply needs to keep the conveyor belt going, while avoiding the bombs that Robotnik drops from the ceiling. Sonic 3: Inverted in Hydrocity Zone. Sonic doesn't run on conveyor belts; he hangs from them, and uses them to get to places he couldn't reach without their presence. Some of the conveyor belts in Death Egg Zone are moving platforms which Sonic must take to progress, and they're designed to change direction whenever it's most inconvenient in order to push him into wall spikes or throw him into big ol' bug zappers. In Sonic 3D Blast, the boss of Gene Gadget Zone takes place on one of these. Sonic must run across the conveyor belt, avoiding the spikes, and hitting Eggman when he floats down to fire missiles at him. Final Egg from Sonic Adventure has conveyor belts that tries to move you towards dangerous things, most of which are sharp Spikes of Doom. The only conveyor belts in Sonic the Hedgehog (2006) switch direction for no particular reason, dropping whatever is unfortunate enough to be placed on them down a level-wide Bottomless Pit. Eggmanland from Sonic Unleashed has super-fast conveyor belts pushing you backward, as well as laser walls along the belts that you have to jump over or duck under. |

Jet Force Gemini has two rooms in S.S. Anubis having each a large slope where a wide conveyor belt operates. In the first room, they're moderately fast but can be overcome with some jumps and perseverance, though it's ideal to instead climb through the boxes placed sideways and kill the enemies allocated in them. In the second room, the conveyor belt moves so fast that it's impossible to overcome them, as the forthcoming area is meant to be explored by Floyd (a flying drone) during a minigame dedicated to him. | |

Knight Man's stage from Mega Man 6 and Proto Man's castle from Mega Man 5 are examples of conveyor belts being located in castles. Then again, not much beyond handwaves have ever been given to justify stage layouts in the series. | |

Shantae and the Pirate's Curse has a lot of conveyor belts in the Abandoned Factory, and not only make mobility difficult but are also placed around Spikes of Doom, Bottomless Pits, and falling ice blocks. However, some of them are actually helpful since you can use them to charge up Risky's Boots for an obstacle destroying Dash Attack. | |

One of the areas in VVVVVV revolves around conveyor belts. They're indicated by still arrows on a surface. The room they're introduced in is titled "Conveying New Ideas". | |

Life Goes On features belts in multiple levels; sometimes as a hindrance, sometimes as a solution to the puzzle of the level. Many having switches that allow you to alter if they have spikes or are walkable which allows you to transport corpses around to hit needed Pressure Plate and whatnot. | |

Mega Man series: In Mega Man 2, a large number of the platforms in Metal Man's stage work as conveyor belts, including the floor of the Boss Room. Knight Man's stage from Mega Man 6 and Proto Man's castle from Mega Man 5 are examples of conveyor belts being located in castles. Then again, not much beyond handwaves have ever been given to justify stage layouts in the series. |

The Castles of Doctor Creep has conveyor belts as one possible obstacle. Generally you need to find the switch to control them, so that they are stopped or set to go in a certain direction. Sometimes the switch will be impossible to reach, in which case it generally acts as a one-way path (since it's moving too fast to run against; if you try to run against it, you'll slowly get pushed by it toward the end). | |
