We tell you who should skip it, too.
Play it if you…

- Players who dislike restarting a level after a single mistake
Our take on Instant Death
The bounce point is the first death: no checkpoint preserves progress, so the current level starts over. Players who repeatedly fail near the end of a stage may hit this reset system often, particularly on levels described as almost impossible.
What is Instant Death?
Instant Death is a first-person reflex game where each level requires avoiding anything red.
Touching red kills the player, and death sends the attempt back to the beginning of the level. The game contains 20 levels, including some described as almost impossible, and none has checkpoints. The vendor advises players not to rush unless they are confident in their skill. Techno music accompanies the levels, with completing a level presented as the main reward.
