Not a Game	comment	A Stock Phrase used on characters frivolous in the face of a Matter of Life and Death. "This isn't a game." or "We are not playing a game." (Or sometimes "We are not playing.") Sometimes even when it is a game, but the stakes are too high to treat it as one, such as the second type of Serious Business; alternatively, the character may point that "This is serious," generally with an enumeration of the consequences. (With the first type of Serious Business, use of this is a characterization trope: the character really is that out of touch with reality.) Often supplemented with concrete observations, such as that people will die or suffer terrible injuries if they fail. Sergeant Rock (who knows War Is Hell) will often use it on New Meat that think War Is Glorious. Usually used on people who are supposed to be on the same side as The Hero, and who are cooperating, but not seriously enough. Cavalier Competitor is a natural target for it. The Obstructive Bureaucrat, for instance, is usually told that this is a Matter of Life and Death. Sometimes, though, the target is entirely serious, and the use of this statement may reflect a difference in perspectives between them and the speaker. When this is news to the character, see And You Thought It Was a Game instead. Sister Trope to This Is Reality, but with no invocation of the Fourth Wall (unless, of course, it's being said within a Video Game). You Watch Too Much X is a milder Sister Trope. Not related to Allen Iverson's thoughts on practice.

Not a Game / int_12fd5db0	comment	In Megamind, the titular supervillain's fights with Metro Man are more of an excuse to build cool robots and trade quips than anything else. When Megamind actually seems to win, he creates a new superhero just so he'll have another sparring partner. When Megamind confronts Titan for not bothering to show up for their duel, he finds Titan has been playing a video game instead—and has went on a robbing spree! As Megamind proceeds to provoke Titan into fighting him, GAME OVER is displayed on the TV. Megamind then hits Titan's Berserk Button leading him to finally attack Megamind, but it quickly becomes clear that Titan has no regard for playing by the rules and intends to kill anyone who gets in his way.

Of course, while Byakuya's attitude is fairly selfish and callous, it's far less naïve than most people who hear this phrase, since by seeing the others as his opponents, he's fully prepared for the possibility of being betrayed. Byakuya does eventually get over seeing the killing game as a game, and after the fourth class trial, shifts his focus to hunting down the mastermind.

Not a Game / int_7dcdbde1	comment	A similar sentiment is expressed early on in Case 3 of The Great Ace Attorney. Ryunosuke arrives in Great Britain after his best friend Kazuma, who was supposed to serve as an exchange law student, was apparently murdered during the voyage. When Ryunosuke meets with Mael Stronghart, Lord Chief Justice of Britain and offering to serve as Kazuma's replacement, Stronghart proposes that Ryunosuke defend a man accused of murder as a test of his abilities as a lawyer. Realizing that the man will be executed if he's convicted, Ryunosuke says he doesn't feel right using a trial in which a man's life is on the line as a mere test(especially since Ryunosuke was the defendant in the first case and the primary suspect in the second). Stronghart doesn't disagree, but notes that the man has no one else to defend him, and Ryunosuke then wastes no time getting to the Old Bailey to take the case.

The fact that it's Johnny, who is usually the jokester on the team, who says this only further emphasizes how serious the situation really is.

Not a Game / int_c43df4d8	comment	Doctor Who: Comes up in "The Zygon Inversion" when the Doctor sets up a Sadistic Choice in place of a war: He gives them two boxes that either do exactly what they want (that is, genocide) or will backfire horribly—and they have no way of knowing which button to push. Kate, the human representative, demands to know why he's doing this, and he gives them a tongue-lashing over it.

At one point, Kull gives his opponent a kick to the balls and the man falls to his knees complaining about Kull's low blow. The king responds, "Get up, you border wolf. This isn't a children's game."

Not a Game / int_e5feb1e	comment	Ace Attorney: In the second Ace Attorney Investigations: Miles Edgeworth, a young Raymond Shields gets excited at visiting a crime scene, only for Gregory Edgeworth(Miles' father) to say, "This isn't a game, Raymond. Please be more serious." A similar sentiment is expressed early on in Case 3 of The Great Ace Attorney. Ryunosuke arrives in Great Britain after his best friend Kazuma, who was supposed to serve as an exchange law student, was apparently murdered during the voyage. When Ryunosuke meets with Mael Stronghart, Lord Chief Justice of Britain and offering to serve as Kazuma's replacement, Stronghart proposes that Ryunosuke defend a man accused of murder as a test of his abilities as a lawyer. Realizing that the man will be executed if he's convicted, Ryunosuke says he doesn't feel right using a trial in which a man's life is on the line as a mere test(especially since Ryunosuke was the defendant in the first case and the primary suspect in the second). Stronghart doesn't disagree, but notes that the man has no one else to defend him, and Ryunosuke then wastes no time getting to the Old Bailey to take the case.
