Meaning of game over (what is it, concept and definition)

What is Game over:

Game over is an English term that means "game over" and is a message that appears on the computer screen or video game console when all the lives available in the game have been lost and you must start again or from the last saved point, when the time determined by the game runs out or when a game is completed.

The term game over is born in video games but its use in Spanish and in global jargon has become popular to refer to the term of some fact in life that implies a relationship such as, for example, when a relationship ends, when it is left a job, when you finish your studies, when you win a vice, when you stop producing a product, the end of a government, etc.

When game over is used it generally refers to something that was not very good from the beginning and refers to investing time in a situation as if it were a game that finally ended.

Game over is used as the name of many programs, companies and products related to the world of video games.

An example of the use of the term game over is shown in the discussion in the media on how the phenomenon of the launch of the Pokémon GO game saved the Nintendo company from a game over , since the video game company that so far revived appeared to be in hibernation.
