Treasure chest (video games)

In many video games, especially Computer role playing games, Treasure Chests contain various items, currency, and sometimes monsters. For certain Role Playing Games, some chests are actually mimics, which is a monster that look like a chest, and will attack the player when they attempt to open it.

For most games, once a chest has been opened, the contents remain empty, although they may be repopulated with possibly different items during different stages of the game.
