Plan your next Life Goes On: Done to Death session

Our guide breaks down the quirky death‑driven puzzles of Life Goes On: Done to Death, offering observations that help you see patterns without promising hidden shortcuts. By comparing each mechanic, you can develop a personal strategy that fits the game’s morbid humor.

01 / THE GUIDE

Analyzing Death Types

Record which trap you use first in a level and the resulting effect. Comparing spike, sawblade, and electric deaths reveals which yields the most versatile body placement.

  • Observe how each trap converts a corpse before committing to a kill.
  • Try different death types in the same area to discover hidden routes.

02 / THE GUIDE

World Theme Mapping

Create a quick sketch of each world’s dominant element. Matching the element to its common traps (lava‑heat, ice‑freeze) speeds up puzzle recognition.

  • Take note of visual cues that hint at the world’s dominant element.
  • Use the challenge levels to practice advanced death techniques.

03 / THE GUIDE

Hat and Weapon Cataloguing

List every hat and weapon you unlock. Noting them can add a fun layer of personal achievement.

  • Collect hats early to see the full range of silliness.
  • Experiment with different weapon skins for fun visual variety.

04 / THE GUIDE

Performance Tracking

After each level, write down the number of knights used and completion time. Over several runs you’ll spot opportunities to cut down both metrics.

  • Plan a minimal‑knight route before attempting a low‑knight run.
  • Time your runs to identify sections where you can shave seconds.

05 / THE GUIDE

Boss Preparation Review

Before the final fight, reread the map‑integrated storyline notes. Understanding the narrative context can hint at the boss’s likely attack patterns.

  • Review the map storyline to anticipate the boss’s mechanics.
  • Use the armoury to recall which hat or weapon you enjoyed most.
