Darkness

Areas that go dark, hiding the level until the player or a timer brings the light back.

Darkness hides part or all of an area. On consoles it is often drawn by switching the palette to black, so the level is still there but can’t be seen. The light may come back on a timer, from a switch the player hits, or from a light the player carries.
