Lara starts with dual-wielding pistols and can find a shotgun, 50-caliber pistols and a Mini-SMG along the way. She’ll be lead to a series of ruins around the world including locations in Peru, Greece, Egypt and Atlantis. Lara is searching for a mystical artifact known as the Scion. It follows almost all of the same story although some parts have been reimagined. Otherwise, there are simply too many flaws, so I sadly cannot recommend it.Tomb Raider: Anniversary was released just over a decade after the original. If you like difficult platforming and old-school boss fights, you may like this game. While the experience was too frustrating for me, this is quite a good game within its specific genre. Dare I say it, but this game may be too "hardcore" for me (even though I usually don't like it when games are dumbed down).
Also, you have to manually "save" the checkpoint, otherwise, if you quit/reload, you lose all progress since the beginning of the game. It is also a pity there is no manual save system, and that the save checkpoints are not very forgiving - they were often far away from the part I struggled with, meaning I had to redo a lot after failing a sequence. I'm not a noob, but better hints and tutorials would have been helpful for me. I got stuck on some of the platforming and boss fights, so I had to look up the solutions online. I found the keyboard/mouse controls difficult and at times inconsistent and unresponsive - Maybe it plays better on a console. My playthrough broke down to frustrating trial and error at times. 95% of the game is pure puzzle platforming (so you should only play this if you really like that sort of gameplay). After a while the puzzles feel repetitive (but this is largely a question of personal taste). It started off OK, but as the puzzles and boss fights got harder, they got more tedious, and the controls got more frustrating. In some ways it is a decent game, but as I progressed, it became unplayable for me.
