Instances of this collection will most likely also be instances of another computer game genre. ComputerGameProgram-Arcade computer arcade game flight simulator The collection of instances of <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/2008/06/10/concept/Mx4rvVjmuJwpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">ComputerGameProgram</a> whose main feature is that the player is depicted as flying some aircraft or spacecraft.

In part, the point of such games is that they simulate the experience of driving in ways not typical of one's daily commute. They often also have a violent component akin to shooter games. A prime example of both features is Carmageddon. computer driving simulation game The collection of all specializations of <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/2008/06/10/concept/Mx4rHIBS0h_TEdaAAABQ2rksLw" class="cyc_term">FirstOrderCollection</a>, that is, of all collections of (first-order) collections, and an instance of <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/2008/06/10/concept/Mx4rHUFI8h_TEdaAAABQ2rksLw" class="cyc_term">ThirdOrderCollection</a>.
