Quick Timer Event
These are events in games in which the screen prompts the player to perform some sort of action (usually a button press) in a certain amount of time or face the consequences (usually damage or instant death). The player has no control of their character other than the required command. This is similar to the Full Motion Video games of the mid-1980's like Dragon's Lair and Space Ace.
