elimination game
Last one standing
An elimination game is a competition where participants are progressively removed until one winner remains.
The format appears in game shows, reality TV, and tournament brackets: It's down to three contestants in tonight's elimination game.
In playground games like dodgeball or musical chairs, getting "out" removes you from play.
The structure creates rising tension as the field narrows.
