Shadow of the Tomb Raider

This was an amazing game which lives up to its hype with great action,graphics,plot and more and this is caked with over the top enjoyable beautiful puzzles and story. I loved it so much that's all I got to say

Shadow of the Tomb Raider is a great ending to Lara Croft's rebooted, mature origin story. Once again the visuals are absolutely stunning, and the voice acting is top notch. I never play games until 100% completion, but I had to for this game. My only gripe with the game is the controls. More than once I had issues where I would press a button and it wouldn't register, or Lara would jump in a different direction than I intended. Also, the combat is pretty straight forward: hide, use killer instinct to see if enemies are not being watched, then stealth kill (or go guns blazing, but it's not as fun). The game has many side missions, tombs, crypts, and other collectibles to find and beat so there is more of an incentive to jump back in after the main campaign (or dive into new game +). Excellent game that I couldn't put down. If you're not a fan of the series, this won't change your mind, but damn is it fun.

I was excited to play Shaddow of the Tomb Raider because the last two games were amazing. The game got off to a decent start, but once Lara gets to the village the story drags and becomes ridiculous ( even for a Tomb Raider game). The gameplay was basically the same as the previous two games, but didn't feel quite as polished. This game also has more free roaming with side missions, which works for a lot of games but not this one. Overall it's an okay game, it just doesn't measure up to the previous two.

This is one of the best Tomb Raider games ever if you ask me. It is exciting, scary, moving and it is full of breathtaking environments. The puzzles are more difficult, challenging and bigger then ever before. The story is great and the graphics make it super realistic. I'm looking forward to the next Tomb Raider adventure!

I love how committed these Tomb Raider games are to being what they are, and how they don't shy away from going in a less grounded path.

8/10.
