A brother to the Life Meter and Mana Meter, the Sprint Meter, or Stamina Points / Meter is a graphical depiction of some aspect of a player character's condition other than their remaining health. Generally, this represents stamina, and often more precisely their ability to run at high speed; when the meter empties, the character must either take a moment to catch their breath or be unable to run until it is recovered. This allows a game to put a limitation on a player's ability to flee from danger, which makes such meters popular for Survival Horror games. For purely gameplay purposes, this meter usually runs out so fast that plenty of people who probably don't think of themselves as particularly fit would expect that they would be able to run longer that some video game protagonists, but it probably wouldn't be very interesting for a lot of games if players were designed around the expectation that they could sprint away for multiple minutes at the sign of trouble. A Sprint Meter can also be used to indicate the capacity for a swimming character to hold their breath (where it's called an Oxygen Meter) or other quantities. The defining characteristic of the Sprint Meter is that it refills automatically over time when it's not in use. Since dashing while swimming is often impossible anyway, the sprint and oxygen meters can share real estate on the screen. Where Life Meters tend to be red, and Mana Meters tend to be blue, the Sprint Meter will often be green or (less commonly) yellow to round out the color trio. See also Run, Don't Walk; compare with Nitro Boost, a temporary boost of speed. Stamina Burn is for when this meter's value can be lowered by non-player action or effects. Sub-Trope of Status Line (a display element showing the current disposition of the player, e.g. score, health, ammo, etc). |

Genshin Impact has a stamina bar that's shared between running, swimming, climbing, gliding and using your charged attacks, with different consequences if you run out — if you're running, you will simply slow down to a normal jog and be unable to dodge for a few seconds (not the best situation if you're fighting enemies); if you're swimming, you will drown and be teleported back to the coast you started from with all your characters losing 10% of their max HP; if you're climbing or gliding you will fall and be subject to Fall Damage possibly disabling the character you were using at the time until they're revived. The only way to increase your max stamina is to collect items called "oculi" scattered around the map and offer them to special statues, which encourages players to explore every nook and cranny of Teyvat. Also certain characters have passive abilities that decrease the stamina consumption of certain activities while they are in your party, and some foods also temporarily decrease stamina use while sprinting. | |

Arena and Daggerfall have a Fatigue meter that drains slowly but surely over time and can only be restored by resting, casting a spell, or drinking a potion. Sprinting makes it drain much faster. Running out of Fatigue makes your character fall unconscious for an hour. Also has a minor interface version of Damn You, Muscle Memory! in that Fatigue is the red bar with the green bar indicating health, unlike the later games. | |

S.T.A.L.K.E.R.: All three games have it, and it depletes when sprinting, jumping and even walking, sneaking or crawling (though at a slower pace). It's very generous, provided you don't get over your weight limit, which upon being trespassed, makes the meter drop so fast that even walking can tire you out quite fast, and it only gets worse the heavier your loadout is until you suffer from Critical Encumbrance Failure at 10kg over the limit. In all games, a can of energy drink can immediately fill up a large part of the depleted endurance meter, and there are stamina-enhancing artifacts that, if stacked, can make the meter infinite, though they're only really practical in Shadow of Chernobyl, where they're not radioactive; in the latter two games, you can't really use them if you don't also have a powerful radiation-clearing artifact like the Wrenched or Bubble. | |

In Cold Fear, the "Resistance" meter doubles as this, depleting when Tom runs. The Resistance meter running out during Smashing Survival or Press X to Not Die is often a very bad thing, so exhausting yourself when near hazards or monsters can end poorly. | |

Wolf (DOS) has an Endurance meter which is used for running at top speed for a certain distance; it's represented by what looks like a green liver, and refills any time you're not running (it refills faster if you sit down). However, you can trot for days at a time with absolutely no need to rest except for stopping to eat or drink; sleep is one thing you can do without. | |

Monster Hunter: The stamina meter is used not just for running, but also dodging and guarding. The stamina meter's maximum value decreases every so often, more quickly so in very cold areas, requiring the player to eat meat to restore it. There's also two items that temporarily grant infinite stamina. Monster Hunter Tri introduces two status effects that affect the stamina meter: Waterblight, which makes it recover more slowly, and Iceblight, which makes it deplete more quickly. And Glacial Agnaktor is capable of inflicting both. If you're carrying a heavy object and you deplete your stamina meter entirely, you drop the item, it shatters, and you have to start over again. It should be noted that "sprinting" while carrying a heavy object is akin to the speed of walking when not carrying one. | |

The Jagged Alliance series feature an energy bar beside the life bar. Running for too long, carrying too heavy a load, or getting hit by stun grenades and tear gas would deplete it (in the latter two, almost all in one shot). If it ran out, your character would pass out until it refilled, though you could drink water to speed up the process. In Jagged Alliance 2, the maximum energy would deplete over time, representing how tired your character was. You could only raise the maximum back up by sleeping. | |

The meter returns in Breath of the Wild, in improved fashion. It now depletes much more slowly, doesn't come into play as often, can be augmented and recharged more easily, and Link's regular jogging speed (which does not reduce the meter) has been increased. There is also a Good Bad Bug where by whistling for your horse and tapping B you can run indefinitely. | |

In S4 League, you have a SP gauge which allows you to perform tricks like sprinting, dodging, wall jumping, and using skills. Because such usage of the skills makes it hard for any player to be hit, when carrying the ball, your SP is depleted so that it would be easier for the opposing team to kill you. | |

In Diablo II, completely depleting the sprint meter means having to wait for it to fill up completely before sprinting again. Potions exist to temporarily nullify it. Also, the game is kind enough to freeze the meter in the non-combat areas, allowing you to sprint all you like. | |

Half-Life 2 made the odd decision to have running, the flashlight, and oxygen be a single "Auxillary power" meter. Dashing causes your flashlight to run out, swimming with the flashlight on reduces your time underwater, etc. In Episode 2, however, the flashlight energy is separated, to allow the player to run in a certain underground section when they are expected to have their flashlight on. A way to Hand Wave the former decision is that, since the suit power's auxillary power is used to help Gordon Freeman both sprint and use a flashlight; Freeman doesn't want to tire himself out and make himself incapable of fighting, and so, refuses to sprint outside of being aided from the suit. The flashlight regaining a separate meter is similarly handwaved as it being a backup after the original was broken by the Citadel's explosion at the end of Episode One. |

In Eternal Darkness: Sanity's Requiem, you don't have a visible meter. You have different characters, and the amount of time each can sprint is roughly proportional to the size of the person's de facto condition. Bianchi and Max are both rather hefty and consequently can't sprint for long. Pious is strong enough, but he's in heavy armor and exhausted; he also can't run for long. Anthony is immortal during his chapter, but his curse cripples his sprinting progressively, regardless of his health meter. Characters like Karim or Michael, on the other hand, are strong and unencumbered, and thus able to run for a long time. Even Peter can (& has to) book it for quite a while, aided by his youth and weight. | |

In JoJo's Bizarre Adventure: All Star Battle, Vanilla Ice possesses a unique stamina meter that slowly depletes in Stand On mode, and regenerates in Stand Off mode. All attacks in Stand On cost stamina to use, to counterbalance the fact that they're completely invulnerable, unblockable, and hit like a truck. All Star Battle R introduces Pet Shop, who has a special Flight Mode that allows him to fly freely in the air, attack while moving, and dash repeatedly without limit. However, using this mode consumes stamina, which can only be recharged by resting on the ground. |

In Grand Theft Auto, your character does not have a visible sprint meter, but he will get winded if you force him to run for too long (there's a similar effect when riding pedal bikes). This distance gets longer as your Stamina stat improves, and can become unlimited by finishing the Paramedic side missions. In IV and its expansions, the protagonists can sprint indefinitely. This is justified as Niko is a war vet, Luis is a bouncer, and Johnny could be explained as him being really good at running away from the cops, being a high-ranking member of an outlaw biker gang and all. V makes the meter visible, represented as a blue meter below the map (which doubles as your oxygen meter). Continuing to sprint after it empties will start draining your health. It increases as you keep running, and once your stamina stat hits level 100, it becomes infinite. Chances are, you'll naturally max it out over the course of the story for all three characters. |

The protagonists of the Silent Hill games all have a hidden stamina stat that, after some time of running, eventually forces them to jog at a slower pace; Harry in the first game will become winded and start panting when he stops, but he can run more or less indefinitely. It is only really problematic in Silent Hill: Origins, as the protagonist, Travis, has the misfortune of being a smoker AND having a sedentary job of a truck driver, and so when he's tired he is very slow; fortunately 0rigins features Energy Drinks that instantly restore the sprint meter when used.stal | |

In X: Rebirth, the massive boosters on the Albion Skunk draw their power from the ship's regenerating Deflector Shields. Higher capacity shields and more powerful thrusters enable the ship to traverse longer distances before pausing to regenerate. | |

Tomb Raider: The series had a sprint move (and meter) from the third game until Legend. Underworld brought back the sprint with no visual gauge (although you can still only do it a certain amount of time). Tomb Raider: The Angel of Darkness features a stamina meter for climbing and shimmying, as well as the more standard Oxygen Meter for swimming under water. |

Pathfinder has an optional Stamina system that functions much like those in video games: the PC gains a pool of stamina points that can be spent to perform special abilities in combat, running out of stamina causes fatigue, and the points are recovered by resting for several minutes. | |

The Mortal Kombat 3/UMK3/MK Trilogy games had a Run meter, which allows you to dash forward for a brief while until the meter runs out. It also worked as a Cap for combos, so that you (supposedly) can't do a combo or run immediately after doing the other. This mechanic is also present in Mortal Kombat 4 (and by extension Gold) and Mortal Kombat X. | |

In MechWarrior, the speed-boosting Myomer Accelerator Signal Circuitry is typically tied to some form of sprint meter. In Mechwarrior Living Legends, MASC puts out a tremendous amount of heat on the Humongous Mecha's reactor, but has no hard cap, meaning one can literally sprint their way into the grave as the mech overheats around them. In Mechwarrior Online, MASC has a direct sprint meter; albeit starting from 0% and going up. Above 75%, the mech's leg actuators start to jam up, causing continued leg Subsystem Damage. | |

The Legend of Zelda: In games that include Epona, pressing the A button spurs her to a full gallop, which is regulated by a line of carrots (implying that feeding her carrots acts as an organic Nitro Boost) or spur icons. The meter will refill gradually when partially depleted, or all at once if fully depleted, but only after Epona slows noticeably for several seconds, which is enough to lose you the Racing Minigames in Ocarina of Time and Majora's Mask. The recommended technique for maintaining a high speed is to keep at least one carrot on screen at all times. The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword introduced a general Stamina Meter used for sprinting (which lets you run a short distance up walls to reach somewhat higher ledges and go up steeper hills), climbing, spin attacks (but not regular attacks), carrying heavy items, and keeping yourself afloat in sand. It takes the form of a green circle divided into wedges; especially rigorous actions take off one or more wedges at a time. (The Oxygen Meter has the same design in blue.) This gives it a resemblance to the cross-section of a citrus fruit; appropriately, the Stamina Fruit pickup instantly refills the meter, giving Link the ability to run long distances in certain areas by zig-zagging from one fruit to the next. Drain the meter completely and Link can't do anything but move around slowly until the circle refills, including actions that don't normally run off the meter. There's a specific potion that slows how fast stamina is burned for three minutes, which conveniently only becomes available after you complete a dungeon with a large number of stamina-based puzzles that would be trivialized by that potion. The meter returns in Breath of the Wild, in improved fashion. It now depletes much more slowly, doesn't come into play as often, can be augmented and recharged more easily, and Link's regular jogging speed (which does not reduce the meter) has been increased. There is also a Good Bad Bug where by whistling for your horse and tapping B you can run indefinitely. |

Mass Effect had an odd example of this: The ability to sprint (ie, move faster than normal) was only available during combat (ie, once enemies were actively trying to hurt you). Shepard could then sprint for a short period until the bar was depleted or combat ended, abruptly turning off your ability to sprint. This was changed in Mass Effect 2 so that Shepard could sprint on command, in or out of combat, but still at the mercy of a Sprint Bar. Still helped get around faster. Mass Effect 3 removed the Sprint Bar, allowing the player to sprint as long as they pleased. | |

Star Wars: Battlefront II has an "energy" meter for both on foot and in vehicles. Sprinting/turbo gradually drain the bar, while other actions (rolling, jumping from a sprint, or performing a trick in a starfighter) take away a set amount of the bar, up to and including going into a negative value that requires a longer recharge period before you can do anything that requires energy. While on-foot you can recharge the meter faster by picking up yellow canisters that enemies sometimes drop alongside the more typical healing bacta canisters and ammo boxes, and one of the awards you can get in the game, Endurance (for making twelve points in one life) grants you a bonus that lets your meter recharge faster. | |

In Demon's Souls and its Spiritual Successor Dark Souls, the stamina meter goes down with everything your character does except walking and magic—and even magic takes stamina in Dark Souls II and Dark Souls III. Attacking, blocking, rolling, and running all drain stamina while holding a shield up makes it recover far slower. Stamina is based on Endurance, which is why most players make raising Endurance a high priority. | |

Far Cry has a Sprint Meter that also functions as a Jump Meter and Oxygen Meter. If it depletes your character won't be able to sprint, jump, or hold his breath underwater until after it at least partially restores itself. Jogging also slows down the meter's regeneration speed. Interestingly enough, it's a blue bar instead of the usual colors. The "sequel", Far Cry 2, has a sprint meter that functions much like the above. While it's not actually represented by the interface, you can tell you're about to tire out when the edges of the screen start to blur, resulting in the entire screen becoming blurry when you're completely exhausted. The game also gives a convenient explanation on why the player character, who is by all accounts a badass, can't sprint for more than 50 meters. It's because you are dying of malaria, the amount of sprinting you can do decreases as your disease worsens. Far Cry 3 onwards went the other way, giving you a limited faster sprint that then slows down to a slower but unlimited sprint. There's an unlockable skill that removes the limit on the faster sprint, too. |

The Elder Scrolls has a Fatigue meter in all games, which works somewhat differently between entries. Common between them, however, is that it drains when you sprint or use your weapons. Arena and Daggerfall have a Fatigue meter that drains slowly but surely over time and can only be restored by resting, casting a spell, or drinking a potion. Sprinting makes it drain much faster. Running out of Fatigue makes your character fall unconscious for an hour. Also has a minor interface version of Damn You, Muscle Memory! in that Fatigue is the red bar with the green bar indicating health, unlike the later games. Morrowind changes it so that the Fatigue meter functions partly as this. Running and jumping cause it to drain rapidly, though it will replenish over time if you stand still. If being struck by an unarmed attack or hit by a fatigue-draining spell causes it to reach zero, you will collapse for a couple of seconds. A low fatigue makes melee attacks more likely to miss and makes actions (spell casting, lock picking, persuasion, etc.) more likely to fail. Oblivion is mostly the same as Morrowind...except that there's no longer a sprint button in the first place. Instead, moving slows the Fatigue regeneration rate based on your Athletics mastery level. Higher mastery levels reduce and even outright remove the regeneration penalty once mastered. Skyrim brings back a Fatigue-draining sprint (which drains faster than Morrowind sprinting), and is otherwise similar to Oblivion. The same meter also covers your ability to perform power attacks, and to zoom in while aiming a bow. Online has a meter similar to Skyrim's, and is spent to sprint, dodge, block, interrupt casting, break free from crowd control effects and use most weapon-based abilities. |

In both the NES and Wii Punch-Out!! games, Little Mac's stamina is indicated by a heart gauge with a number. Blocking a punch the opponent throws or having one of your punches blocked takes away one heart, and getting hit takes away three. When the gauge hits 0, Little Mac becomes tired and can't throw any punches. He has to either dodge the opponent's punches or recover from a knockdown for the heart gauge to refill. There's nothing special that having stamina enables you to do, so it's more like one half of a Sprint Meter. | |

This is played with in Neverending Nightmares; you can run for a limited time, but calling it a "sprint" is being generous. You can only run a short distance, during which you move progressively slower and slower before stopping to have a mini asthma attack. Since there's no HUD elements, there's no actual meter; instead, you have to listen to Thomas' rattling breaths to let you know how far you've run the meter down. | |

Running in Minecraft depletes your stamina meter, which can be refilled by eating. If you have three muttonchops on it or less, you're unable to sprint. If it's empty, you start to starve, possibly to death. | |

Call of Duty: Call of Duty: United Offensive and then Call of Duty 4 onward add the ability for the player character to sprint for short durations, which is useful as your AI allies have always typically run faster than you can and rarely wait for you to catch up; there's only an actual meter present in United Offensive, where it depletes far faster than in later games. The perks from multiplayer's Create-A-Class also have frequently included ones that allow you to sprint faster and/or longer than normal starting from Modern Warfare 2. Call of Duty: Modern Warfare (2019) and onward go for a different system: regular sprinting is now infinite, but there's also a slightly faster Tactical Sprint that lasts for a short time. |

The "sequel", Far Cry 2, has a sprint meter that functions much like the above. While it's not actually represented by the interface, you can tell you're about to tire out when the edges of the screen start to blur, resulting in the entire screen becoming blurry when you're completely exhausted. The game also gives a convenient explanation on why the player character, who is by all accounts a badass, can't sprint for more than 50 meters. It's because you are dying of malaria, the amount of sprinting you can do decreases as your disease worsens. |

No More Heroes: One of the unlockable abilities in the game is the "Technique of Bizarre", AKA the ability to run, stopping in exhaustion for a few seconds should you sprint the meter completely empty. The beam sword charge gauge pulls double-duty as the sprint meter, so you can't actually run while in battle. It's still a good way to get around the alleys in town that a bike has trouble maneuvering in, and it's practically a requirement to get a good score in some of the side-jobs. Sprinting makes Travis cannonball forward with enough velocity to outrun a car for about fifteen seconds. And he's winded for three. No More Heroes 2: Desperate Struggle doesn't have one (nor any of the other Lovikov skills), mostly because Travis doesn't need to sprint at any point (due to the city of Santa Destroy being turned into a glorified menu). No More Heroes III still lacks a sprint meter and does bring back the playable overworld, but Travis runs a little faster to make up for the absence. | |

EVE Online has a general-purpose capacitor gauge which effectively functions as a sprint meter when using an afterburner or a microwarpdrive. In addition, warping to a celestial object uses a chunk of the energy stored in the capacitor up front. If you don't have enough, the game drops your ship out of warp prematurely. | |

Sundered has a Stamina Meter represented by yellow pips. The player spends this meter to dodge-roll, air-dash, and fire the Valkyrie Cannon, with each action consuming one pip per use. The pips regenerate after a few seconds of inactivity, and the meter can be increased by spending Shards in the Trapezohedron Tree. | |

Quest for Glory: The hybrid RPG/Adventure games have stamina that run out the more strenous activity your character partakes in without stopping to rest or drinking a stamina potion. Stamina also runs out faster if you run instead of walking, and upon reaching zero the game starts taking from your health meter, and you get messages saying things like "you're so tired everything you do hurts" and repeatedly warning you to get some rest before you die of exhaustion. In the first two games, running out of stamina in battle is instantly fatal. The explanation is that, being exhausted, you will be unable to attack or defend effectively, or even run away, resulting in a quick death. From the third game on, fighting with zero stamina does, in fact, drain your health. In the third game in particular, it drains remarkably fast, meaning you can fight yourself to death. The fourth is a little more kind, simply preventing you from attacking if stamina is nearly gone. Of course, since the in-combat stamina regeneration is tied to the computer's CPU power, any modern system will completely regenerate the hero's stamina in seconds. |

Averted in Mirror's Edge, where Faith can sprint for as long as she needs to and never gets tired. Instead, it simply takes a short time for her to accelerate to a sprint (save for abuse of a certain glitch which allows you to instantly achieve full speed from a stop). There is also a less obvious meter that fills up when sprinting and allows you to briefly activate Runner Time for tricky jumps or disarms. This meter is not visible on the screen, but your screen will flash blue once it is filled. | |

The original PlanetSide has health, armor, and stamina bars. Stamina is drained by jumping and using implants (such as the Surge sprint implant or the personal shield), and cannot be regenerated at the typical brisk jogging pace. If you completely drain your stamina, you're stuck moving at a slow crawl and panting loudly until it goes above a certain threshold. If you die and a medic revives you, your stamina will be completely drained. | |

Inverted with some character archetypes in City of Heroes who have inherent powers — like Domination for Dominators — that have corresponding bars on the interface to indicate their level of effectiveness. Most of the the time these bars run down if the player isn't doing something to keep it up (such as engaging in combat for Brutes). Sprint, itself, was a toggle power all characters had immediately upon starting, and drained the Endurance bar as any other. For the lower levels, draining the bar to nothing was fairly easy, meaning a player could neither flee quickly nor fight until it recharged. At higher levels with the right builds, players could easily have Sprint activated permanently, in addition to their other travel powers. | |
