Over the last few years, I’ve been playing quite a few RPG games. These games have been so much fun to play. One of my top games that I loved playing was the 2013 edition of Tomb Raider. I was originally recommended this game by Little Jackalope at Her Interactive while they were live streaming one of their Nancy Drew games. She raved about how good it was and so I decided to try the game. I bought a copy during the summer sale back in 2016 for $4.99 dollars and just recently bought it for the PS4. So let's get started!
Tomb Raider: Top of Cell Tower |
Game Description
The game focuses on the storyline of Laura Croft and her first expedition aboard the Endurance looking for the lost kingdom of Yamatai. Her team adventures into the Dragon’s Triangle where the ship is struck by a violent storm causing their boat to be destroyed. The survivors are now stranded on an isolated island surrounded by deranged savages from other ship wreaks. Laura’s friend, Sam, is later captured by the leader of these deranged men, Father Mathias, where he plans to use her as a sacrifice. It’s up to Laura to save Sam and find a way for her and her friends aboard the Endurance to escape the island.

Graphics
The graphics for this game were amazing. At the time of me playing this game my had a slightly older computer which made it difficult to play on higher graphics settings. Still with the low graphics the game look so clear and sharp. Everything also look so realistic to the point of where some of the more gross areas of the game made me cringe.

Storyline
I love learning about Laura’s in the game. In the beginning we see Laura as a helpless/confused girl that just wants everything to be ok. She wants to follow in her father footsteps while also making a name for herself. Throughout the game, we watch her grow from this confused and scared girl, into the bravest person in the group. Laura's taking charge and doing what need to get done to get herself and her friends off the island as safety as possible. Throughout this game, we can really see how Laura has grown and changed as she begins to follow her own path and destiny.
Gameplay
When it came to the game play, everything was super clear to follow. There were a few times where I got a little stuck on certain aspect of the map, however, other than that, this game is super easy to figure out. However, there were a few times in the game where the big bosses, or story challenges were extremely difficult to beat, but I really enjoyed trying to solve the best ways I could beat the bosses or solve the puzzles in the tombs.
Thank you everyone for reading! I really enjoyed playing Tomb Raider and I can wait to play more of the story. If you want to play the game for yourself then you can get the game on Steam, PS4, and Xbox One. So have you played Tomb Raider? I would love to know down in the comments below.
Until next time,
