The Retry Nodon is an Output Nodon that, when activated, restarts the current game, as if the standard retry function was used.

When unpausing from a long pause in Free Programming, it may say "Ugh... If you mess it up, you can always have another try... Lucky for you!". In the Nodopedia, its quote is "Ugh... I just wish I could redo this game from the start...".
