[How To is a recurring feature in which we demonstrate techniques designed to improve your game, and make your skill set more than a little bit awesome. This time out, we’ll help you kill Limbo's spider boss.]

Without question, Limbo‘s most frightening section is its opener, a forest where hidden, dark things seek to slaughter our young protagonist. Limbo‘s tree spider boss is the most fearsome of the all the woods’ evils, which we recently detailed how to defeat. That was only round one, however; the huge spider returns in a more aggressive fashion. Here’s how to kill the beast.

1. Push the log into the pool of water. Hop on top and sail across.

2. Once on land, you’ll see another log lying diagonally across a rock. It’s there for a reason; it acts as a see-saw that will help you continue to move forward. Here you have to go against instinct; stand on the far right edge of the log and let the spider approach. When he steps down on the left side of the log, your side will eleveate, letting you leap across a short chasm and continue running.

3. Pushover the dead tree stump, run across it, and leap across a gap. The spider will continue in persuit, and fall into the gap. It’s not over.

4. Make your way up the hill. You’ll discover a boulder held in place by a wood plank. Jump on the plank to break it and cause the boulder to roll down hill.

5. The spider will crawl out of the hole it fell into a short time ago as the boulder rolls toward you from the right. Once again, face your fear by running toward the spider.

6. Notice a small ledge. Jump onto it, and play the wall.

7. The spider will be crushed by the boulder–victoly once again! Well, only partially. There’s one other step to go, but it’s so simple, and satisfyingly gruesome that it’s better to discover it yourself.
