Nowadays, the vast majority of video games, even when not pure action games, include fighting enemies on the way. There may be a lot of weak ones or a few tough ones, they may be humans or monsters, you may kill them half-heartedly or with great enjoyment but they will be on your path to prevent you from Saving the World, rescuing the Damsel in Distress, finding your lost memories or eating your pizza. And at some points, you will have to fight big enemies, much more fearsome and dangerous than the others with an appropriate tension buildup. But some games go around this. Even though you fight your way through numerous Mooks and death traps, no climactic battle against a boss ever comes. There can be several ways to explain and/or compensate the absence of bosses: |

Inverted in Yo! Noid 2: Enter the Void: the final boss is the only combat in the game, and the rest is purely about navigating across obstacles. | |

S.T.A.L.K.E.R. has the occasional Boss in Mook Clothing in the form of some of the more monstrous and powerful mutants, but none of them are unique and, for the most part, they spawn randomly in addition to scripted encounters. The final level of the first and third game both essentially boil down to "get to the place while under fire from Elite Mooks", and the first game's such sequence can even be solved without killing anyone, assuming the player has the capability to tank it out. | |

In the Ernothian trilogy of Might and Magic games the bosses are almost non-existent regarding gameplay mechanics; in case something is supposed to represent a boss, it's either a strongest tier of given enemy type with possible slight increase of statistics and different name (Xenofex in VII, who is just Devil Captain with different name, in the middle of other Devil Captains no less), or it's just an enemy taken from different dungeons (Corlagon in VI is just a generic Power Lich in dungeon with Specters and Skeletons only). There are unique enemies with high stats and model that serve as a boss (Robert the Wise/Tolberti in VII) but in these games that happens only rarely. | |

Pathways into Darkness' closest thing to a boss enemy is the "Big Blue Meanie", a unique Boss in Mook Clothing encountered on the level "Need a Light?" In lieu of a Final Boss, the climactic battle is a Multi-Mook Melee against every mook type encountered over the course of the game. | |

Battlestar Galactica Online dispenses with World of Warcraft-style storied raids and bosses to focus on PVP and sector control. As a result, the lategame challenge comes from swarms of Elite Mook or enemy players instead. The closest things to bosses are the outposts, but those are more like King Mooks, if Damage Sponge ones. | |

Monsters, Inc.: Scream Team: There are Mecha-Mooks in all levels, and the objective in each level is to scare the mechanical dummies (Nerves) to earn medals. However, there are no bosses of any sort; not even Randall, who is challenged via races and you simply have to reach the goal first (collecting a specific amount of coins is also necessary). It's also justified, because this game is a prequel to the Monsters, Inc. movie, and the actual confrontation between Randall and the starring duo doesn't happen until the climax of said movie. | |

There are only 3 bosses in Batman: Arkham Knight only encountered in the endgame, all of them being taken out either by QTEs or through a cutscene. Noticeable because the previous two Arkham games have several bosses. | |

Half-Life: Blue Shift is notably the only title in the entire Half-Life series that lacks boss fights. While a single Abrams tank is present in the chapter "Captive Freight", it's not given much fanfare, and your opposition during the finale while you're powering up the prototype teleporter amounts to a few houndeyes and a squad of HECU soldiers. The remake Black Mesa: Blue Shift makes a point of averting this by adding a Vortigaunt ambush at the end of "Duty Calls" and presenting two proper boss battles against a LAV and Abrams during "Captive Freight". | |

The only real boss fight in The Last of Us is the fight against David in the burning restaurant, and the difficulty comes more from the fact that it's a No-Gear Level than because the boss is any tougher than the game's other human enemies. | |

The first two Bloons Tower Defense games have no bosses, just steadily bigger and bigger waves of bloons. The third game would introduce the first Boss in Mook Clothing, the MOAB, while Bloons Monkey City later featured actual bosses. | |

Most enemy encounters in Fe consist of playing hide and seek with the Silent Ones or siccing other animals such as deer or bears against them. The closest thing to a boss fight is a Multi-Mook Melee with a den of Brainwashed and Crazy wolf/rodent/pig hybrid creatures in the mountain area. | |

In Alien: Isolation, you only ever encounter hostile humans, Working Joes, and completely unkillable Xenomorph drones, and the closest thing the game has to a Boss Battle is when you beat up several stunned Working Joes at once in an attempt to steal a key-card from them. | |

Link's Crossbow Training: Link spends most of the game shooting down common enemies and targets. The only two enemies that approximate bosses are the Darknut and Stallord. Even then, the player doesn't actually have to defeat either of them; as there is no health system and points are based solely on shooting, the stages they're in can be passed just by waiting for time to run out. | |

Most Splinter Cell games at most have assassination targets but devoid of bosses. Instead, the games throw in mooks with stronger armor or equipped with night vision goggles. The only time there are bosses are the PS2 version of Double Agent and Blacklist. | |

Assassin's Creed IV: Black Flag only has one enemy resembling a boss in the main story, with the other main targets being more like Elite Mooks in combat - and indeed, every other target in the game can be assassinated just like any mook. There are even bonuses for one-shotting them in specific ways. There are also four Superboss ships in the form of the four legendary ships. | |

The Grand Theft Auto games have never been big on boss fights, with your main foes often being no tougher than a random mook wearing body armor, and being threatening more for the power they wield over their underlings than because they themselves are all that physically imposing. Case in point is Ending C in Grand Theft Auto V, which pits the player against all of the antagonists at once, but none of them have unique strengths and go down as easily as any random pedestrian. Steve Haines and Devin Weston, in particular, don't even get to be truly "fought", as the former is sniped and the latter is kidnapped in a cutscene. As a result, the ending of Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas stands out even more for its aversion of this trope, with a conventional boss fight against Big Smoke in a burning warehouse with far more health than any other enemy in the game. | |

Max Payne: In the first Max Payne, there are many fights against "boss" mobsters who could withstand boss levels of punishment before being defeated. Max Payne 2 does away with these fights almost completely. There's only one enemy who's at all tougher than a regular Mook, Kaufman, and even he goes down in less than a dozen shots. The final boss fight is mostly a Puzzle Boss, although you do shoot him up after solving the puzzle. Max Payne 3 is mostly like Max Payne 2 in this regard, although there are several confrontations against machine gun-toting Heavily Armored Mooks spread throughout the story. |

The video game adaptations of The Godfather series. The "bosses" are the dons of the other families but they're easy to kill, the real challenge is fighting all their mooks. The sequel adds different levels of King Mook between the dons and the street-level rent-a-mooks, who correspondingly aren't that tough either. | |

Do It For Me: The Wooffles serve as enemies for the player to fight, but there is no boss in any of the endings. The girlfriend, the Big Bad, is confronted but never fought- even in the "Psychopath" ending, where you kill her, she is too scared to fight back. | |

Commander Keen: Every level in the games is devoid of bosses, with the exception of the final level in the third (the Grand Intellect), fifth (the Shikadi Master) and spin-off episodes (Boobus Tuber). Even among the exceptions, the Shikadi Master is invincible, as the goal in that level is to defuse the energy source of the Armageddon Machine while avoiding the big enemy's attacks. The majority of Fan Sequels are devoid of bosses as well, with two of the notable exceptions being Episodes 8 and 9 in their respective last levels, where you confront a doppelgänger of Keen in the former and the Grand Intellect (in his true human form, Mortimer a.k.a. Keen's vicious rival) in the latter. | |

Streets of Rogue: The game only has mooks to deal with for any of your missions (and often not even those if you're clever) and considers it a victory just for reaching the Mayor's Village regardless of what happens there. Even if you do consider the Mayor encounter, it stills plays it completely straight since they're far weaker than most mooks and their elite mook Super Cop guards can be easily dispatched in a wide variety of ways. If you won the election then you don't even need to bother with what little fight there is, they just hand you the hat and walk away. In particular, the killer robot (which can show up as part of a random disaster) has all the hallmarks of a boss due to it having a massive amount of HP, attacking with infinite rockets and ability to track you anywhere, but in practice it's very easy to just run away from it and skip the fight altogether. Custom chunks can try to repurpose it into a proper boss fight by marking it as an owner of a locked steel door (thus requiring the player to kill it to get the key), but even that can be avoided by just finding some other way to open the door (including just pushing the robot itself into it somehow, triggering its "tear down any doors in the way" effect). |

The Halo series is known for this, with Halo 2, Halo 5: Guardians and Halo Infinite being the only real exceptions. The boss fights in Halo 2 were so highly criticized that Bungie decided to not put traditional boss fights in any of their subsequent games. In the case of Halo 5, all the boss fights are the against cloned iterations of the same character, with most encounters involving multiple bodies, though the multiplayer Warzone mode features other boss enemies. Infinite, meanwhile, completely averts the trope by having a variety of boss characters and going so far as giving them onscreen name and health displays for the first time in the franchise. | |

Far Cry 2 is a game consisting of Mooks and only Mooks, due to attempting to be more realistic than its mutant-battling predecessor. There aren't even any Giant Mook or Elite Mooks. Even the assassination targets are just bog-standard enemies. This is averted in Far Cry and Far Cry 3, which do have at least one or two traditional boss fights. Far Cry 4 is filled with mooks, a few Elite Mooks during specific missions, and two badass boss fights that have almost nothing to do with guns whatsoever. | |

GoldenEye (1997) and GoldenEye (Wii): The only boss you fight is Alec Trevelyan, who doubles as the Final Boss. During the rest of the game, you confront numerous mooks, solve puzzles and complete objectives, but no bosses appear. This is justified due to the game's efforts to remain faithful to the 1995 James Bond movie, where Trevelyan is the only villain whom James confronts recurringly. | |

Batman games: There are only 3 bosses in Batman: Arkham Knight only encountered in the endgame, all of them being taken out either by QTEs or through a cutscene. Noticeable because the previous two Arkham games have several bosses. In the Batman Begins game, you fight Victor Zsasz, the Scarecrow and Henri Ducard, but they fight in exactly the same way as the Mooks, right down to the way they're taken down. |

The nearest you'll ever get to a boss in L.A. Noire is an important enemy with a slighly better gun than usual, unusual car chase (such as the one against a tram), or the occasional scripted Good Old Fisticuffs fight or "shoot the villain before he shoots the hostage" minigame. The emphasis is instead on detective work. | |

Watch_Dogs only has one boss-like encounter, Delford "Iraq" Wade, fought at the top of his building. And it's only barely stronger than an Enforcer (these being the Elite Mooks of the game). All other plot-critical targets are killed in cutscenes, quick-time events or in the same way a traditional enemy is. | |

In Red Dead Redemption, the closest thing there is to a Boss Fight is Edgar Ross in the epilogue, but it's played like a normal duel (except you don't have the option of sparing his life). As for John's old companions, two are summary executions and the last throws himself from a cliff. | |

The first two Oddworld games involve killing a lot of guards in usually gruesome ways, but since Abe has no weapon nor actual fighting skills there is nothing in the games that looks like a Boss (well there are "bosses" but not in the video game sense. Abe actually has to possess those and guide them to voice locks only they can open ― and only then kill them by dispossessing. So the trek to the lock becomes a "boss encounter"). | |

Bioshock Infinite has exactly one actual boss character, who is fought several times, while all other significant antagonists, including a giant monster who would have been an extremely obvious candidate for a boss fight and was practically advertised as such in pre-release marketing, are killed in cutscenes. The first DLC chapter also has a boss fight, but it's against the Boss in Mook Clothing Mascot Mook from the original Bioshock games rather than something new or truly unique. | |

Maximum Force doesn't have any bosses, with all your enemies being terrorists, gunrunners, and generic-looking mooks (and occasionally an attack helicopter). While the final level have you taking on a drug baron's army, once you reach the end of the level... you then blow up the drug baron via rocket launcher, in a cutscene. And then the game ends. Same goes for its Spiritual Successor, Target Terror. | |

In Soul Reaver 2, a good part of the game is slaughtering the soldiers and demons who want you dead, but curiously, there is no Boss. The Sarafan counterparts or Raziel's "brothers" at the end seem like they will be bosses but they turn out being like normal mooks, just tougher, and the Soul Reaver prevents you from dying anyway. The real Oh, Crap! moment comes after this battle. | |

In Prince of Persia, Jaffar is the Final Boss only in the sense that, unlike any other enemy, you have to kill him; he fights like all the other Mooks, and though he does have more health, that advantage is nullified by an obvious situational weakness. Other pseudo-boss enemies include the Skeleton in Level 3, the Fat Guard AKA Politician in Level 6, and the Doppelganger in Level 12. A few ports(e.g. Japanese computers, Sega CD, Turbo CD, and XBLA) throw in a conventional Boss Battle with Jaffar after this, and the SNES version adds many original bosses. | |

The End Times: Vermintide features five heroes against Warhammer's Skaven in a mission-based game similar to Left 4 Dead. Until its third DLC of missions, the only "bosses" were the usually one-per-level Rat Ogres, miniboss enemies who are mindless mountains of muscle and hit points that berserk their way into the party, and the Stormvermin Patrols, which are simply an unusually large collections of Elite Mooks who patrol together and are much easier to avoid than fight. The invasion's leader, a Grey Seer, cannot be fought directly at all, and beating him simply requires fulfilling level objectives while ignoring the Seer. The third DLC finally added a true boss in the clan's Chaos-infused chieftain. The sequel fully averts this with five full boss fights (two Chaos Champions, two Chaos Sorcerer Lords, and the same Grey Seer now riding a Stormfiend) and several new miniboss types who usually show up twice per level (on top of the ogres there are now Stormfiends, Bile Trolls, Chaos Spawn, and, in the DLC, Minotaurs). | |

Albion is almost like this. There's really only one regular boss (the avatar of Kamulos); the few other boss-like characters include a unique named character who's not actually powerful, a more powerful version of a regular bandit who's only here for being unique (more powerful versions of monsters being otherwise common), a strong guard you don't have to fight, and a Hopeless Boss Fight. Most of the time, the final fight somewhere will just be a group of powerful regular enemies. | |

The Call of Duty series never really had any bosses (with the exception of a Cutscene Boss fight at the end of each game since Modern Warfare), with practically all enemies fighting the same and taking the same number of bullets to kill. Modern Warfare 2 upped the ante with the addition of Juggernauts, but in general all the major, plot relevant foes are either killed in a cutscene, quick time event, or as easily as any other mook. This is averted by Call of Duty: Black Ops III, with each of the major antagonists being fought in a boss battle, including a giant mecha, a giant aerial assault vehicle, a Flunky Boss, and a Proactive Boss. | |

Deus Ex: You do engage several elite enemy operatives, but they are not much stronger than a regular mook, if better armed and augmented, and die almost just as easily. The same is true of Deus Ex: Invisible War, even more so than the original as all the elite operatives are just regular enemies with somewhat more health. They don't even have any special abilities even though plot-wise they are supposed to. | |

Most targets in the Hitman series go down just as easily as regular enemies, unless they are scripted or wearing body armor (Which doesn't help if they're being strangled from behind). The catch is to actually get to them, which is more difficult than it sounds. In the earlier games major assassination targets were much tougher than regular Mooks, but could still be killed with a headshot or taken out stealthily. This has been downplayed in later games starting with Blood Money. The Hitman (2016) game is the most extreme example, without a single assassination target that's any tougher than a normal Mook (with the exception of an Iron Man-expy in one of the bonus levels). | |

Garfield's Fun Fest: There are no bosses in any of the levels in the game. Even the game's antagonist, Ramone (who is Nermal in disguise), is unfitting, as Garfield simply outperforms him in the last level via a dance, so in terms of gameplay the level is no different from the other rhythm-based stages; and when the main antagonist's true identity and intentions are exposed, he runs away in shame, ending the story and the game. | |

There are no real major boss fights in Assassin's Creed III, unlike previous games in the series. Most of the assassination targets aren't even particularly skilled combatants. The only real exception is a Climax Boss fight against Haytham Kenway towards the end, which is more of a cinematic Puzzle Boss fight than a straight boss encounter. The very last enemy you kill in the game is not even a challenge - he's killed in a cutscene. | |

Prey (2017) has no boss encounters. The large Typhon called the Nightmare doesn't need to be killed to progress and will eventually respawn. The major endgame threat that is Walther Dahl can be easily killed or stunned like any human.
