Recycled levels

Video game concept

Despite there being multiple levels or equivalent, they're more or less identical with possible thematic switches.

Alternate names: Identical levels
Name variations: recycled maps, identical maps

Commonly the monsters and some objects change between levels, but the position of elevators, ladders, floors, walls, etc. remain unchanged.

Thematic switching includes palette, texture, tile, etc. changes.

Possible reasons for this to happen are:
* Resource limited platform
* Lazy developer
* The levels are supposed to be similar/same
