Help players who keep dying without making the game feel rigged

Quietly making a game easier after several deaths can save a frustrated player, but done carelessly it feels like cheating or flips back and forth. This entry gives a slow, bounded way to help, and the limits that keep it honest.

Why this works

Frustration builds with each failure in a row, and help that arrives early and leaves late feels like a kindness, not a trick. Keeping it small, capped and slow to fade means the player still feels they won through their own effort.

When not to use it

Skip it in games where players expect a fair, fixed challenge, such as competitive modes, ranked play, or modes chosen as hard, and when scores are compared. There, offer an open easy setting the player picks themselves.
