Features & Gameplay

Lara Croft GO is centred around solving puzzles. The levels consist of a playing field of dots connected by lines. Lara can move along those lines from dot to dot by swiping. To continue to the next level Lara has to reach the exit. On her path she has to avoid various traps - like crumbling floors or walls - overcome enemies, and solve puzzles.[3]
