Product Description
Lara Croft returns once again in the fourth instalment of the popular Tomb Raider series. The newest effort brings Internet pinup Lara back to the Egyptian tombs that she roamed in the series opener (the now classic Tomb Raider). Our heroine must seek out Horus, an Egyptian god that has the ability to capture the evil soul Set. With a combination of puzzle-solving and sharp-gaming skills, Lara will navigate through numerous Egyptian locations, including Cairo, Karnak, Giza, Valley of the Kings and Alexandria.
This game promises to unveil vital background information on Lara Croft, who has emerged as an Internet cult icon since the release of the original Tomb Raider in the mid-1990s. At one point in the game, you will flash back to Lara at age 16 to see the origin of her adventurous spirit that precedes her fully fledged career as a tomb raider.
While gameplay remains faithful to the preceding titles in the series, there are also several new gameplay elements to explore, including a new inventory system, new weapons, and new moves.
Review
Eidos serves up more of the same in the fourth instalment of the adventures of Lara Croft. Tomb Raider: The Last Revelation is sure to please rabid fans of the busty heroine, but it may give indigestion to series veterans looking for something new or improved. If you're one of the latter, your suffering will begin from the start as the game opens with a prologue/training level that requires you to go through the motions before proceeding the actual game. And you probably won't give a hoot about the "play as young Lara" gimmick.
However, those willing to play through the flashback will be pleased to discover that Tomb Raider: The Last Revelation recaptures much of the spirit of the original. Unlike the previous two sequels, the 3-D environments here are closed in, the puzzles are less vague, and the enemies are mostly non-human. While the controls can still be awkward at times and the graphics are largely unchanged, the Indiana-Jones-style gameplay is just as entertainingly addictive as it was the first time around. --Joe Hon
