Rider Gauges

A Rider Gauge (ライダーゲージ) is an energy meter on the chest armor plating of a Kamen Rider. Its function is to act as a way for the user of a Gamer Driver to see how much damage they have taken. If the Gauge energy reaches its lowest point, an alarm klaxon will sound and the Gauge will flash. The Rider or Riders in question who are in this predicament must do one of three things:
 * 1) Abort their operation by deactivating the Gamer Driver and retreat to tend to their injuries or to form a new strategy for fighting the enemy.
 * 2) Find a Recover Energy Item to heal or a defense-type energy item to enhance them to evade or negate oncoming attacks.
 * 3) Continue fighting while dodging attacks and avoid getting hit to defeat the Bugster.

While Lazer Bike Gamer Level 2 is not in human form, he has two Gauges on both side in bike form. Though both seem having only half of normal Gauge energy, each also have all four bottoms. The Bike Gamer summoned through Bakusou Bike Gashat still have both Gauges full of energy.

Genm Zombie Gamer Level X's Gauge is shown to be cracked and always emptied. In contrast, Ex-Aid Double Action Gamer Level X & XX has three Rider Gauges.

Legend Rider forms do not have their Rider Gauges visible on the chest armor. It is instead replaced with detail resembling the chest designs of their respective Legend Riders.

Game Over
When a Rider Gauge is fully depleted, it will flash red for a few seconds, and the Kamen Rider's body is covered with purple sparks. Genm cheated the process at this step by using the Gashacon Bugvisor to transfer the data of his death away from him and into the Dangerous Zombie Gashat. Assuming no interruption, the Rider's transformation is broken and he will collapse in exhaustion. His body, covered with yellow sparks, begins to glitch-out and turn transparent. After a few minutes, a "Game Over" announcement is heard from the Gamer Driver and the Rider finally passes away as his body completely dissolves into white data. Parad's forceful infection of Kuroto with Dangerous Zombie caused him to fade and die while out of his transformation, though "Game Over" was still announced.
