Gameplay
Players who bring up Gameplay mostly praise it.
94 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
For about 90% of the game, the game has great puzzles and crisp auto-grab and ledge jump controls, but a few later pieces of the game are a frustrating chore to get the mechanics of grapple jumping, and Adrenaline Dodges.
Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.
72 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
It is completely rebuilt with better graphics, more fluid controls, new combat, and changed level design.
Story
Players who bring up Story mostly praise it.
61 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
The story, a retelling within the LAU continuity of Lara Croft's first adventure to find the Scion of Atlantis, is genuinely engaging.
Difficulty
Players who bring up Difficulty mostly praise it.
26 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
The series best(from the OG 6), no jank, no weird difficulty spike, just purely creatively and challenging without feeling tedious.
Audio
Players who bring up Audio mostly praise it.
21 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Audio: 7.5/10 - From what I read, the soundtrack from the 1996 version was replaced with a full score for this release.
