casual filter
A part or stage in a game that escalates in difficulty in a very short period of time, separating the casuals from the actual gamers.
Not to be confused with a steep/vertical learning curve, as these mean that the game is hard to learn and master from the beginning.
Games with a casual filter will give you a false feeling of confidence as the filter comes after you have learned the basics and started progressing, just to catch you off guard and make your run end, usually having to start from zero again.
Some examples of casual filters in games include the winter in Project Zomboid and your first goblin raid in Dwarf Fortress

CasualGoth
The average male CasualGoth's wardrobe consists of black band shirts and graphic tees, as well as black and blue jeans. The average female's wardrobe consists of the same, with the occasional poet's cap, skirt, or lacey glove thrown in for a feminine touch. Most CasualGoths have been a part of the Goth subculture for a long time, and have discovered that they don't need dramatic makeup or outfits to be Goth. Makeup is minimal, a little eyeliner there or lipstick here, or they might just paint their nails.

Boffin
British slang for a scientist or technical expert, esp . when the speaker is not certain of the expert’s specific field of study. Not necessarily derogatory, but typically used by persons without a technical background. In the US, the equivalent would be “egghead”, “squint”, or “geek.”
Origin of the word is unknown. Started sometime in World War 2. Given the typical evolution of British slang, could easily have started because what these experts did was confusing or “baffling” to the common person.
