I have been a fan of the Tomb Raider games specifically because of the reboot survivor games. As a kid I owned a PS1 but never got to play the originals. I always meant to play them but never got around to it.

I'm so glad this game exists. TR 1 is everything I've wanted in a modern game. I love the puzzles. The combat in some cases actually scares me. The Tombs feel isolating and mysterious. I never know what to expect around any corner.

I could go in depth but I think the above with fewer words encompass what I love. The only other thing I need to shout out is being able to swap between modern and classic graphics. As someone who owned a PS1 and never played these games, I'm so happy to be able to compare and even play something close to the original at the press of a button. Games that do this always make me so happy, and in this case I think it adds to the experience in a way past games haven't considering the atmosphere.

I'm still going through TR1, but its shaping up to be one of my favourite games ever. Do yourself a favor and get used to the classic controls. If you care about classic games at all, play this game. Even if you don't I find it still holds up incredibly well.

Played originally on PS4, and while playable, the dropped frames and sometimes terrible textures were a distraction. So far on PC with a 1660 ti, I've had absolutely no issues. Currently the game is on sale, and I've been meaning to get the DLC. For an extra $7, it was very much worth getting the game here.

I've never been great at writing reviews, but the game has an amazing atmosphere, fun gameplay, and intriguing story. The story and world building mostly comes in the form of notes you pickup, and I am more than happy to read through every single one, but I also know people who aren't. You're doing yourself a great disservice by not reading everything you come across, but even if you can't be bothered to pick up and read the notes, the gameplay stands alone well enough. It's fun and engaging, and you continue to pick up new abilities that really keep things interesting.

I highly recommend giving the game a go. I'm not too picky, so I really can't find much fault with the game. I'll leave the criticisms to people much more qualified than me. Don't rely on this review. Do some research, and find out if this is the game for you. If you're like me though, and just want a cool atmosphere and fun gameplay with some interesting world building, and tense moments, this is the game for you.

Start for the game play stay for the story. I won't spoil anything, but what I will say is while the gameplay is completely engaging and fun, the story is one of the best out there. Just remember, if you think the game is over, it isn't. Keep playing all the way until route C. Its more than worth it. I couldn't recommend this game enough. Route A and B made this my favourite game. Route C made it my favourite piece of media.

Amazing game, you will waste hours apon hours playing it. Assuming you like First person Shooters of course. If you dont Id probably pass. If you do, its well worth the money, especially if you have friends to play with!
