    Best game of the series

    I have found this game to not only be beautiful but also it’s the best game of the series since reboot. The puzzles are surprisingly challenging and the leveling system works very well. I would agree that in some portions of the game it almost seems like a horror game as they have captured some eerie environments very well. The sound design is exceptional and if you have surround this game takes excellent advantage of the surrounding ambient noises. Controls are pretty tight with some awkward camera goofiness on occasion, but nothing game breaking. The underwater environments are also some of the best of the series and again I can’t get over how gorgeous they look! If you have 4K and HDR with a PS4 Pro or an Xbox One S/X you are in for a treat. Definitely 4.5/5 stars!

    So far, it is a great game. I love the exploration part and stealth. The puzzles are easy yet challenging at parts (I'm just stupid sometimes lol) and the story, I'm liking so far. The graphics are improving so much every game and I can't wait to see what the future holds. Out of the 3 games that came out from 2013 to 2018, I can't choose which ones my favorite, they're all very fun to play. Keep in mind, I'm easily pleased, so don't think it's a perfect game, in fact there isn't any perfect game. Tomb raider just stands out to me because it appeals to my interests, and it might not to others. Other than all of what I said, I highly recommend playing all the 3 games

    Amazing graphics that will make you jump out of your seat at times. The puzzles and challenges are tough and the story is interesting. I'm really enjoying the game. My biggest complaint is that I have responsibilities that keep me from playing all the time.

    This installment of the Tomb Raider franchise is just awesome. The story is wonderful, the visuals are stunning, and the dialogue is great. The game starts off a little slow and the action is a tad clunky, but it's easily ignored as the game ramps up rather quickly and the action is only clunky in very rare parts in certain spots.

    Always liked the tomb raider series and this one is equally impressive as the rest. Has all the characteristics you look for in an action/adventure game, storyline, action and graphics. A good buy for gamers of that genre.

    One of the better games I have played. Good graphics, good story line and fun puzzles. Takes about 12 hours to beat. But there are plenty of side missions that you can play after you beat the game.

    This game emphasis more on exploration and puzzle solving, and less action that the previous 2 entries which may put off some people. The graphics are the best in the series by far. Not as good as the previous two entries, but its still enjoyable.

    Shadow of the Tomb Raider steps forward in hopes of duplicating on the previous Rise of the Tomb Raiders quality and capabilities! It doesn't disappoint! While I feel their are less fire fights then the previous game, this game has added many new and intriguing Tomb Raiding challenging puzzles and quests! The graphics and frame rate run smoother on the PS4 version then the Xbox One X so I picked it up for the PS4. Don't hesitate and pick it up!

    I really like the new and darker direction that the tomb raider series has taken with these PS4 games. Great story with more exploration and puzzles than the previous games.

    A decent conclusion to Lara's origin story

    With every installment of this Tomb Raider reboot, I've been eager to see Lara become more of the confident and experienced adventurer we're familiar with from her earlier games. I can't say this end to her reboot trilogy pushes her to that goal in a satisfying way, but at the very least the game itself is a (mostly) satisfying experience. Shadow of the Tomb Raider can best be described as Rise plus some. There are a few new movesets to use, but on a graphical and mechanical level, this game is highly reminiscent of its predecessors. I do want to at least give props to the developers for including an interesting way to customize difficulty. Being able to explore without the handholding of white paint markers made it much more rewarding. Ultimately would recommend to anyone who's a fan of the more exploration/puzzle-solving elements.

    Shadow of the Tomb Raider is a phenomenal game. The ending of Lara Croft’s retelling of a origin story. The main thing I love about this game is the stealth. I’m a killer for stealth! The graphics are beautiful, the skins, story, characters all good. I’ve enjoyed this game a lot. If you grew up on original TR games there is one skin that irks me. Angel of darkness skin the mouth doesn’t move. I love the way it looks but in Rise of The Tomb Raider they did the animations. Other than that I’m interested in future Tomb Raider games.

    I liked the exploration, the crafting, the story. This reboot gave me hours of entertainment. I really hope they change their minds and make more. The reboot is fantastic. I wish they had some DLC stories to add to the game.
