Home > Blossary: Tomb Raider (2013)
Vulnerability and survival are the watchwords for this reinvention of the Tomb Raider series, an action-adventure video game by Square Enix. In this episode, the young and unworldly Lara Croft got shipwrecked on an island - a far cry from the backflipping, dual-wielding daredevil treasure-seeker who murdered her way through polygonal archeological hoards during the mid-nineties. Crystal Dynamics are certainly brave in taking this iconic character in such a dark, mature direction - but will the cost to our heroine’s empowerment prove too great a price to pay?
