So let’s take a look at some of the specific elements of Shadow of the Tomb Raider that feel really good. It’s worth noting that the lackluster story, while disappointing, doesn’t spoil an otherwise entertaining action-adventure. It’s still a fun game, with lots to enjoy. Like many other reviewers, I’m unimpressed with the way Lara Croft’s motives are portrayed in this final game of her modern trilogy.

I completed the game a few days ago, and spent some time this week critiquing the story. Shadow of the Tomb Raider arrives today, meaning that hordes of Lara Croft fans will be exploring rainforests, tangling with wildlife, burrowing through tunnels and swinging on an ice pick.
