damage numbers

Impact value display

Damage numbers are the numerical values displayed in video games showing how much harm an attack inflicts.

They typically pop up near enemies or targets when hit, giving players immediate feedback on their effectiveness: I love watching the damage numbers stack up when I crit.

Games may color-code them to distinguish critical hits, elemental damage, or healing.
