System friendly means it runs without destroying the OS, and actually uses it. In the ideal case, a game that can even multitask, which means you can use any amiga tool while the game is running.

Meynaf would better know but I think some games that are executable from WB (thus HD), WHDLoad games excepted, are not so system friendly and they, kind of "save" the system state before restoring it upon quitting. Am I correct ?
Mere fact of being able to execute from WB does indeed not mean system friendly. Note that whdload games are not really to be considered system friendly because whdload actually saves the system state and restores it upon quitting.
