These are games that can be lost on the very first turn or two, or very shortly after you begin a level. This can be deliberate through a Kaizo Trap, Schmuck Bait like a suicidal dialogue option or Press X to Die, or an "Impossible" difficulty level; and may or may not result in a Nonstandard Game Over. It can also be accidental, due to a Game Breaking Bug, bad starting positions in Randomly Generated Levels, or simply taking an action that the designers never accounted for. Examples of Press Start to Game Over include:

Note that it's always possible for extremely contrived stupidity to result in a player death - mundane cases like failing to properly jump or steer your vehicle around elementary obstacles during the tutorial level are People Sit on Chairs unless the designer thought to put in a special Have a Nice Death message or Nonstandard Game Over for it. In the same vein, Unwinnable user-created content isn't worth mentioning unless the deaths are funny or interesting. Examples of Press Start to Game Over include:
