TOMB RAIDER VIDEO GAME SKIN
She can even rub mud on her face, which not only opens her pores and keeps her skin looking youthful, but it also helps her stay unnoticed.įurther expanding the stealth action aspects of Shadow Of The Tomb Raider, Lara can now climb up onto the branch of some trees and use her bow & arrow to nail enemies and pull them up like she’s Spider-Man. Except that Lara can use the bushes to, well, ambush the bad guys, something she doesn’t do to the fish. But the jungles of Peru do give her one advantage against her enemies: they have a lot of dense shrubbery, which Lara can hide in like the reeds underwater. It is here that she sometimes runs into Trinity. When not shopping, or shoplifting, Lara explores the jungles of Peru. While here, Lara can trade with merchants, engage in side quests - some of which are rather elaborate - and, oddly, steal supplies from the locals.
The same is also true for the caves she spelunks.Īlso expands the geography of the game by giving you some villages to explore, one of which is rather large. While they’re still largely linear, they often have out of the way areas where Lara can find treasures and supplies. Of course, this puts herself at of drowning or being eaten by piranha, though both are somewhat mitigated by the underwater caves of Peru having lots of air pockets and tall weeds in which to hide, respectfully.Īll of these expanded exploration abilities in Shadow Of The Tomb Raider come in handy given that the tombs this time around are larger and more elaborate. Lara also seems to have taken swimming lessons, and spends as much time underwater as she did in Tomb Raider: Underworld.
This let’s her lower herself into chasms, do some swinging, and perform wall runs, all in the name of getting from point A to point B without having to hope that nature will provide a conveniently-located vine. For starters, her pickaxe now has a rappelling attachment. All of which comes courtesy of an exciting, epic, and cinematically-presented story that takes inspiration from the Indiana Jones movies and similarly pulpy adventure stories.īut Shadow Of The Tomb Raider also builds upon everything that Rise Of The Tomb Raider added to the template established by Tomb Raider. The controls are the same, and still silky smooth, and you once again use them to do a bunch of rock climbing, exploring, shooting, and puzzle solving so you can open up new areas to climb, explore, and so on. After a rather disastrous beginning, they make their way to the jungles of Peru, where they’re hoping to locate an ancient artifact before Trinity can use it to start the apocalypse.įor the most part, Shadow Of The Tomb Raider plays like the other games. Lara and her BFF Jonah are in the midst of tracking Trinity, the shadowy organization that’s been dogging them since this saga began. But while this third-person action-packed adventure is as effortlessly fun as the other two, this isn’t just the same game in a new outfit. Having learned survival skills in 2013’s Tomb Raider, and honed them in 2015’s Rise Of The Tomb Raider, Lara Croft is putting them to the test in Shadow Of The Tomb Raider ( Xbox One, PlayStation 4, PC), the final game in this prequel trilogy.
