My game review:
Finally there is an action adventure game where you can take credit from playing in shadow mode (stealth mode). New arts of killing enemies from underwater, tree top, mud-wall and bush-wall camouflage are now official in tomb raider. In this third part of TR “Bone Chilling Tracks” of the higher mountains will put you in continuous puzzles with serious Hights and sloppy situation. There is nothing like tomb raider in the history of gaming. And the graphics is keep getting more realistic with very serious details. You can see elasticity of the human skin with very realistic sheds. Super realistic underwater diving experience.
Logic of combat also improved with realistic camouflage and “sign of awareness of enemies” that we saw in Mifia III. good thing is this part gives you petrol bomb from the very beginning. One wrong shot or attack will bring a whole army against you straight away if you are playing HARDCORE. So be careful with the strategy of each checkpoint after initial assessment.
FULL STORY OF THE GAME :
Story starts with a plane crash in Peru as always the Croft needs excuse to enter old ruins then the background info reveled on next scene that was gathered from Mexico two days back. Lara and Jonah found clue about Pink fish, Silver crowned mountain in a temple in Mexico two days back. Then Lara discovered the truth that they should be in Peru. Dr. Dominguez the archaeologist expert in precolonial ruins seemed to be controlling an army name trinity were looking for them in the wrong location in Brazil. But Lara doesn’t know what Trinity looking for in the hidden cities in Mexico.
Trinity become aware about arrival of Croft in Mexico and the story put them face to face over and over. Lara followed Dominguez to a Dig site in Mexico then rescued an archaeologist on the way and got the information that today Trinity found entrance to a temple after looking for so many years.
Temple of moon goddess: Lara headed toward that entrance of the temple of Moon Goddess IX CHEL AND CHAK CHEL through the mountains and caves under water. She reached to the underground pyramid like temple and climbed on top of it. She found some Clues in a Mural like the Silver box of Ix CHEL in the hidden city and the box will summon the god KulKulkan then tsunami, storm, earth quick and volcano. Lara understood what Trinity was after. In maya belief god Kulkulkan is god of creation and distraction who's heart was stored in a dagger inside that temple in mexico. Lara picked up the dagger and caused a serious tsunami after trinity captured her and took away the dagger.
Lara misunderstood the mural which actually says that silver box was to stop tsunami and the dagger will start the series of epocolips that Deminguez was telling. But Lara knows the real aim of Trinity was to get the dagger and the box to remake the whole world. They are after that power and will go to the hidden city of Peru in the silver mountain for silver box now.
Kuwaq Yaku in Peru: Lara knows what she has woke up taking the dagger and must go after the box to stop the series of catastrophes. Story comes back to the first scene of plane crash in Peru Amzon forest then attack of jaguars straight away. The pilot was eaten already but Jonah was found alive in the crash site. In a flash back it shows story of Lara how her father was killed. In this part of TR Lara actually coming after killer of her father trinity. As usual trinity was here in the silver mountain before them. Lara started talking with locals and started exploring all known ruins for a clue to the silver box. As it was known that Inka civilization was in Peru where Lara was looking for clue for Maya in Peru. “Ix Chel and Chak Chel.. The Twins come together” is a clue they found in the first ruin in the peru village appears to mean Life & Death. Lara sees the “Temple of Life” now and start exploring “PATH OF THE LIVING”.
Temple of life: Lara follows the PATH OF LIVING and reach to the Temple of Life then opens a puzzle of a gate using some numbers of twins Xshal and Xi chal. Inside temple she finds a Mural with clues of a journey enters through Jaguar Mouth follows a serpent toward silver eye. On the way spider, eagle. The local woman Abby points the location of jaguar mouth, so lara headed back to Kuwaq Yaku village through “PATH OF THE DEAD” escaping flood ruins underwater. As usual every step of the way trinity was attacking her. Some sort of creature was eating trinity in the jungle.
Hidden city Paititi: Abby shows her the entrance to Jaguar mouth which is a path to the hidden city. Trial of the Eagle is a puzzle based on wind that she crossed and reached to the hidden city (is Paititi village) to find “serpent with the silver eye”. Lara rescued son (Etzli) of queen in the Paititi village and met the queen. Lara and the queen (UNURATU) shared their stories centering the silver box and moon goddess then Lara said her father was killed by trinity.

Dr Dominguez is Amaru who was born in the village claiming him as god Kukulkan who will sacrifice his life to stop the catastrophe and save everyone. Rightful queen Unuratu and her people seemed to rabel against him and trinity. Amaru is brother of Unuratu’s dead husband Sayri and after his death Amaru joined trinity.
Serpent with silver eyes: Extreme looking tracks through the mountain Lara crossed “Belly of the serpent” and came to know trinity was looking for someone name Lopez (archaeologist) in here. Jonah was looking for clue to silver box as well and was telling the tattoos of Unuratu might have link. Lara crossed “Head of the serpent” braking the puzzle of blood and fire. As soon as she came back to the village she saw Etzli was captured by trinity in an attack. Unuratu told Lara that the Key she found in the head of serpent belongs to mountain temple (Eye of the serpent) would be her next mission where Etzli is kept now. Lara took the back way through salt mine to enter the stronghold and open the gate for rebels to rescue Etzli but unfortunately Unuratu was captured freeing Etzil.
Eye of the serpent: Lara now goes after silver box of xi chal in the eyes of the serpent in Cenot vista. She enters the temple which is crawling with ferocious kind of humans. The story finally enters into hardcore fighting. Eye of the serpent seemed to be a Puzzle of hydraulic wheels to open a gate. No silver box was discovered other than ferocious people of xi chal who are the rightful owner of the box. Lara said it was a trap only. Finally the hydraulic door was opened when everyone was gathered to takeaway life of Lara then she saved her life with a death run and returned to Paititi empty handed as there was no silver box.
