Shes back with a game that looks beautiful. The environments are huge and the puzzles, while they're not as difficult as past Tomb Raider games, are positively massive. All of the enemy bodies stay where they fall (no fading corpses!), this way you know where youve been. The combat element has been reduced dramatically making the games main focus exploration. There is not a single boss fight, something I consider a wise decision. The only problem with the game, as with most platformers, is the camera. It will zoom in a lara making it hard to navigate or get lost behind objects. The later happened very few times but its worth metioning. You discover more about lara's family which helps link the game to past titles. I do have to say- this is not an action title- It's exploration based gameplay.
