However, the game actually picks up a bit when Lara begins enters the submarine base in Russia. It's still pretty standard Tomb Raider stuff and it won't convince anyone that this game is something to get excited about. Some of the puzzles are somewhat illogical and frivolous, but don't get nearly as annoying as many in the previous Tomb Raider games because you're never forced to venture too far to find the key or required object.
The Rome level plays out like classic Tomb Raider, with your standard puzzles that have you flip switches and find specific items to progress through to the next part of the level. Since there are four different quests that take Lara to Rome, an abandoned submarine base in Russia, a haunted castle in Ireland, and a hi-tech office building, each with varied play mechanics, Tomb Raider Chronicles actually has the greatest amount of diversity in play style and atmosphere than you'll find in any of the previous games. The fact that the game has four different and completely unrelated adventures is actually one of its strongest points in its favor. Croft congregate after her funeral and begin reminiscing about her past adventures, and it's these past adventures, of which there are four in total, that the game is based upon. And so, this is where Tomb Raider Chronicles begins. Gameplay For those of you that played The Last Revelation but failed to finish it, the game ended with what appeared to be Lara's death. It might also be conceivable that gamers would even look at this game as a suitable sequel to the first game, because if you directly compare Chronicles to Lara's first adventure, you'll find that it has improvements in many key areas, including its use of cameras, the raw number of Lara's abilities and the basic look of the game.īut, that's not the way everything happened, and instead of taking some time to create a respectable sequel to what was considered the first true 3D adventure game, Eidos cranked out new Tomb Raider games on a yearly basis and have turned what could have been one of gaming's most cherished franchises into one of the most reviled. If this were what happened, the chances would be quite good that Tomb Raider Chronicles would be this year's biggest and most highly anticipated release for PlayStation.
