– Discover tombs and explore living breathing, lost ancient realms which hold clues to the secrets of Lara’s past.
– Travel the globe as Lara Croft, the critically-acclaimed dual-pistol wielding heroine, of the classic Tomb Raider series. Experience an adrenaline-fueled adventure in Tomb Raider: Legend! With guns blazing, Lara must use her athletic ability and intellectual wits to explore vast, treacherous tombs, riddled with challenging puzzles and deadly traps. From your shipwreck, there’s a nerdy guy who seems afraid of everything in the world around him, a spiritual dude that has some mystical explanation for everything and a tough black woman.Follow Lara Croft down a path of discovery as she travels the globe to remote, exotic locales in search of one of history’s greatest artifacts that unleashes unwelcome figures from Lara’s mysterious past. Tomb Raider has a generic cast of characters for you to meet and interact with. With this game, you can easily watch the story YouTube without feeling like you missed out on much. It feels like playing a movie, which is good depending on who you are, but a video game is supposed to be an experience for the player. Obvious item textures indicate your need for a zipline, others indicate a flammable area and yet, exploring other parts of an area just doesn’t provide enough surprises. In addition to the flaws of quicktime, regular interactions with the world aren’t much better with telling you what to do. These forced interactions don’t really offer that “Tomb Raider” experience the name suggests.
Instead, you are riddled with a series of quicktime events that feel like a scripted movie. The game doesn’t really encourage instinctive choices from the player. HandholdingĪfter you’ve survived the tumultuous opening hours of Tomb Raider, things just don’t feel intuitive anymore.
Once you begin to get the hang of it, that’s when the game begins to feel less immersive. You’ll have to craft items, weapons and upgrade your skills. The evolution of Lara Croft doesn’t suddenly happen like a gift from the gods. Freezing to death, stepping into traps, falling from heights and starving are a few other ways to see your journey cut short.Įventually though, the game begins to offer ways to fight back. Watching a wolf tear and claw through an innocent girl is not a nice sight to behold. However, if you fail at any point, Lara will go through some tough struggles for the sake of her own survival. If you do everything right, you get to watch Lara barely survive the ordeals she has to face on Yamatai. Unlike previous Tomb Raider games, you aren’t an untouchable badass at the start.
