Successive levels introduce new game mechanics and enemy types.[3] Enemies take the form of deadly creatures such as snakes, lizards, and giant spiders. Each enemy type has a specific movement pattern. Single-use items, such as spears, can be collected on levels and then used to dispatch enemies from a distance.[3][4] Other mechanics include obstacles such as boulders, saw blades, and traps to avoid.[3] The player can activate levers, which shift walls and platforms to open paths through the level.[4] Lara Croft Go also features optional in-app purchases, which provide hints to the puzzles.[3]
