Played this game in 2015 on PS4. Fond memories of walking and discovering of a story and the series of that occur to leave you alone. I see the biggest complaint is how slow the walk is. It was slow then too, pretty sure there was a discussion that led to holding down the R2 trigger to move a little faster. This a game you go into to take in the atmosphere, pick apart details, and trek a journey to the mysterious conclusion. This is a walking simulator game, but your eyes and ears the primary components for this. Very much enjoyed this game. 7 years later, I still recall empty houses, open fields, barren vacation spot, train tracks and that ending. I may need to revisit it soon.

Despite its age, it's a fun game! There is adventure to be had, a mystery to unravel, places in such variety to see, a slick soundtrack, good handling controls, and people to see and in numbers. Lara Croft returns in this 2006 adventure, voiced by the talented Keeley Hawes. The game is more on the linear side, but there is much to see and explore. My top favorites being Croft Manor, Bolivia, and Tokyo. The climbing mechanics work well. The camera varies, but for the most part, it works. Give this a run if don't mind the now outdated graphics. I still think Lara Croft's redesign is the best in the franchise. Have fun on the adventure!
