| This is a game mode mostly used in [[shooter|Shooters]] and is also known as >>free for all<< (FFA). The primary goal is to eliminate as many opponents as possible while avoiding being eliminated yourself. Usually there are two kinds of goals implemented: Reaching a pre-defined number of frags first (no time limit) or getting as many frags as possible within a certain time limit. For [[strategy games]] the goal usually is to defeat an opponent permanently. Usually everybody plays against everyone else. A variation of that rule is the [[team deathmatch]]. There are also variations known to alter the scores you get, like the [[Star Trek - Voyager Eliteforce#Game Modes|Action Hero]] mode of Star Trek: Voyager Elite Force. | This is a game mode mostly used in [[shooter|Shooters]] and is also known as >>free for all<< (FFA).
