It's common for video games to prevent players from attacking and killing minors, and the new Lego Star Wars is no different. But complaining about minifigs can be useful for more than just venting your frustrations.
Lego Star Wars: The Skywalker Saga released this week, and of course players are testing the limits of what they can do within the confines of the game. Slaughter everyone and everything is just one of many things to cross off the list. .
Developers cannot win when it comes to sacrificing totally unreal virtual children. Either it's novelty when you can, or hilarious consequences when you can't. But these little Legos prove to be incredibly useful in their indestructibility, as a group of gamers discovered on Twitter.

The OP adds (opens in a new tab) that this strategy can be used to "go anywhere", especially when used with different character abilities.
So have them! Getting jolted at the end of a lightsaber is something kids in the Star Wars universe are more familiar with than they are now. At least this time they can dust themselves off once you've had your fun.
