Fun Action-Platformer, Dull Tomb Raiding
I was never really a fan of the original game back in the 90’s because the controls were atrocious. So, when a friend of mine was raving about this one, I was hesitant to try it out. This 2013 reboot is a great entry-point for those like me who want to give the franchise a chance without having to go through the obsolete game mechanics of the original. Besides that there’s some great third-person shooter gameplay here too. I didn’t expect it to be immersive but I did find myself becoming invested in the events of the story and the environment. Tomb Raider offers some exhilarating platforming that puts me at the edge of my seat with its ziplines, mountain climbing, and river slides among other features. Some light puzzles are thrown in the mix as well. Having said all of these, the treasure hunting (or, tomb raiding) didn’t interest me. As much as I wanted to know what was happening in the story, the game failed to compel me to dig deeper and unearth more about the secrets of the main plot. There were times that I stumbled upon an optional tomb, that I ended up finishing because I unintentionally started it. Furthermore, the weapon upgrades are quite underwhelming, where you can make do most of the time with the necessary enhancements. What I’m trying to say is, the general treasure hunting aspect seeks to offer replayability but it doesn’t do it for me. Tomb Raider offers variety, but only to a certain extent. After that, that’s pretty much it. Still, the game is fun and its plot is interesting enough for you to stick it out to the end.
