“absolute cinema1!! holds up really well despite its age and the gameplay was fun. shame there's no steam achievements though, i would've 100% in a heartbeat.”
“In my mind this is the best Tomb Raider game. (though I haven't tried the more recent remake) The first series of six games is too clunky to play these days. The later games switched format to care more about scripted…”

“Loved playing this on the console (Xbox 360) and thought I would replay it on here to get ready for the upcoming remake—but the PC port of this is literally unplayable. The camera tracks and follows your every movement…”

“I am really enjoying this game, I played the original TR when it first came out and the updated graphics make it even better. I love the puzzles, so infuriating but not hard enough to make me cheat. The music and the…”

“could not be bothered with this game because it shows keyboard and mouse icons when playing on controller and there is no menu to see controller layout”
“You would need to be utterly deranged to sit through this whole game. The camera and platforming controls are just way too poor, there really is no nice things I can say about it. This is without addressing how Lara…”
“Unreliable controls tied to a camera that swings wildly and unpredictably around Lara just when you need it to stay still. Absurd level design choices that have no relation to the original TR series. Mostly playable,…”

I beat Legend and now I just beat Anniversary. First thing i'm going to say is if you loved the remastered collections, than this game…”
— a player, Steam review · 14 hrs played“One of those games where I would give a "neutral" rating. I had fond memories of this game as it was one of the first steam games I ever got, and it was my introduction to Tomb Raider. However, I could never finish the game. Now in late 2025 and early 2026, I am trying to play…”
