* In ''VideoGame/BrutalOrchestra'', the boss Ouroboros has three actions that it cycles through. Two of them are attacks (and one of them deals a usually lethal amount of damage), and its other action involves giving the character in the position in front of its head a smooch, which heals that character.

* In one of ''[[VideoGame/DeadToRights Dead to Rights: Retribution]]'''s {{Escort Mission}}s, you have to escort a wounded character to safety.

The only way to restore her health is for Jack to [[TakingTheBullet shield her with his own body]]...which effectively means Jack Slate can heal people by basically ''hugging'' them.
* An Inquisitor who romanced Solas in ''VideoGame/DragonAgeInquisition'' will [[spoiler:have the Anchor removed with a kiss]] at the end of ''Trespasser'', instead of HealingHands like everyone else.

* Kay and Yu from ''VideoGame/Haven2020'' can share a kiss when left idle for long enough which restores the health of the more injured one to the same amount as the other.

* Used a lot in various ''Franchise/{{Kirby}}'' games that give you allies - after consuming a healing food item you can kiss (or hug, in some games) your teammates to heal them.

* ''VideoGame/PerfectWorld'' has an interesting take, probably based on the Daoist belief described above in the Mythology folder. Apart from health and mana, characters also have a meter for Chi, which basic attacks and some skills generate, while other skills consume it. Use of the game's "Embrace" function, which may be performed by any two opposite-sex player characters in any overworld area and in instanced dungeons that allow it, results in mutual Chi gain over time for the characters. This function is represented on-screen by the man involved holding the woman in a BridalCarry.
