This is primarily for cases where the mixing isn't very smooth (natural).

Such as visiting a starship, circus and a medieval castle all in one game, or rather, having levels themed after these.

Notes:
* Some older games called each thematic section a "world".
* Time travel can cause this if done poorly.
* Some thematic transitions may be smooth but appear very out of place.
