magazine have been given opportunity to paw over
the latest Lara
Croft adventure, Tomb
Raider Anniversary, courtesy of publisher
Eidos plc
and an article in this month's issue offers a
first taste of what fans can expect from a special
game to mark the tenth anniversary of subterranean
explorations.
"Tomb
Raider Anniversary is inspired by Lara's inaugural
adventure, but all new assets have been tapped
to create a game that is as new as it is faithful.
Some of the larger set pieces that worked like
a charm are being embellished for much grander
scope and scale.
"New
paths are being added to open the world up, providing
a denser, more challenging mode of adventure.
Puzzles you remember, like the simple cog in the
wheel, are being turned into tasks that require
more steps and points of logical approach.
Play
also comment on the Tomb
Raider Legend engine being mobilised for Anniversary.
"Thanks to the Tomb Raider Legend engine, this
game looks incredible, with the sense of isolation
that dominated the original experience being keyed
in on."
The full
article - along with three brand new screenshots
- can be collected in Play (U.S.) magazine, pinned
on all good newspaper stands now.
