Anti-Frustration Features are instances in a game where the established rules of the game are suspended/modified under certain circumstances, or a particular effect that happens when the game deliberately helps you out during a specific situation. Usually an example of an Obvious Rule Patch to prevent Unwinnable situations from developing, such as if a given Boss Battle mandates the use of one specific weapon with limited uses (be it Breakable Weapons, Cast From Hit Points, or a simple lack of Bottomless Magazines). It can also occur in other situations, but those are fairly rare.

Can sometimes lead to some slight backlash, and take the form of Suspicious Videogame Generosity. Not to be confused with Mercy Mode. Direct opposite of Classic Video Game Screw Yous.
