The value story

The value story

It has never been cheaper than $0.99. That was July 2014. It has been discounted 20 times in the 13 years tracked here. The median cut across all of them is 50 percent, about 21 weeks apart.

It is cheaper than 72 percent of its genre, and less well reviewed than 93 percent. Tomb Raider IV-VI Remastered ($29.99, scores 71) outscores it, and so does Tomb Raider Game of the Year ($19.99, scores 79). Both sit among its closest neighbours.

What players say

This game is actually bad. Gameplay is finicky and the shooting is terrible. There are a lot of missed opportunities with this game, and the cliffhanger had to be the worst one I've ever had the displeasure to see. I actually finished the game in 1,8 hours and in one sitting, so if you want an extreme challenge, there you have it.
