English term or phrase: foozle
Definition from Wikipedia:
The final boss in a game.

Example sentence(s):
  • Some games offer semi-puzzles during the Foozle fight - like destroying the machines which make the antagonist invincible, or shooting arrows into a mirror to bypass an enemy's defense - but they still feature a prominent Foozle The Escapist Magazine
  • Dragon Age: Origins forces the player to make actual choices. Even if the choices are ultimately illusory and the Foozle still must be fought, most (but not all) of the major decisions are through dialogue trees and the result of player choice. /project/multiplexer
  • Not to mention, people would simply burn through it no matter what. There is a reason for the amount of pointless tasks in modern MMOs: they slow you down and eliminate the need to grind. Yes, you might have a bunch of “kill ten foozles” or “deliver these candies” quests, but they are a necessary evil. Game by night

jefe (final)


Definition from Gamer Dic:
Enemigo especial dotado de más y mejores habilidades y mayor cantidad de vida que el resto, lo que lo hace más difícil de derrotar. También denominado jefe final, ya que suele aparecer al final de un nivel o fase, como último obstáculo antes de avanzar al siguiente.

neutral  Maria Azul Bassi: Hi! I think "jefe" is an appropriate translation for "boss" or "final boss", but "foozle" is an informal term.

"Foozle" is a slang term, that is why "jefazo" is a nice option to keep the register.

"Generic title of the final boss character in any game, although most likely used when describing a game that is generic or cliche in nature." (https://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=foozle)
"Foozle describes a cliché final boss that exists only to act as the final problem before a player can complete the game." (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boss_(video_games)#:~:text=Foo...
(video games, slang) The final boss character in a game. (https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/foozle)
