Lara Croft and the Guardian of Light is a platform action video game developed by Crystal Dynamics and published by Square Enix for Microsoft Windows, PlayStation 3, Xbox 360 and iOS as part of the Tomb Raider series through digital distribution. Unlike previous games in the series, the game does not carry the Tomb Raider brand and has a heavy emphasis on cooperative gameplay. In multiplayer, players take the role as either Lara Croft or a 2,000-year-old Mayan warrior named Totec. They must work together in order to stop the evil spirit Xolotl and retrieve the Mirror of Smoke. A single-player campaign mode is available that does not include the non-playable character AI following or helping Lara.

Ein gutes Koop-Spiel mit tollen Rätselpassagen und Schusseinlagen, was mir im Team einige Stunden Spaß beschert hat. Ich finde es ist ein super Couch Koop Spiel.

A Refreshing Adventure: Unveiling the Magic of Lara Croft and the Guardian of Light Rating: ★★★★☆ (4/5) Lara Croft and the Guardian of Light offers a departure from the traditional Tomb Raider formula, delivering an engaging and innovative co-op experience that combines action, puzzle-solving, and exploration. This is a game that successfully revitalizes the Lara Croft franchise by embracing new gameplay mechanics and emphasizing cooperative play. Set in an isometric perspective, the game follows the iconic archaeologist Lara Croft and her newfound companion Totec as they navigate treacherous tombs and ancient ruins in search of powerful artifacts. The departure from the third-person view may have been met with skepticism, but it's a move that pays off, offering a fresh perspective on the adventure. The game's visuals are well-crafted, creating an atmospheric and immersive environment within the confines of the isometric presentation. The detailed tombs, intricate puzzles, and traps are all brought to life with impressive attention to detail, and the lighting effects contribute to the overall atmosphere. Lara Croft and the Guardian of Light excels in its gameplay mechanics, emphasizing teamwork and cooperation. The addition of Totec as a second playable character introduces new dynamics to the series, encouraging players to work together to solve puzzles, overcome obstacles, and engage in tactical combat. The puzzles themselves are cleverly designed, requiring critical thinking and coordination between players. The game doesn't shy away from action either. Combat is dynamic and satisfying, blending shooting mechanics with the use of various weapons and abilities. The assortment of weapons and artifacts at your disposal adds variety to the gameplay, ensuring that encounters remain engaging throughout the adventure. Despite its strengths, the shift to a co-op focus might alienate some fans of the traditional Tomb Raider experience. While the single-player mode does exist, some elements of the game are clearly optimized for cooperative play, and the absence of a fully fleshed-out solo experience might disappoint those looking for a more solitary adventure. Additionally, the game's storyline, while serviceable, takes a back seat to the gameplay mechanics. If you're seeking a narrative-driven experience with deep character development, you might find the plot lacking in comparison to other entries in the Tomb Raider series. In conclusion, Lara Croft and the Guardian of Light is a commendable departure from the norm, presenting a refreshing and engaging co-op experience that successfully revitalizes the iconic franchise. Its inventive gameplay mechanics, polished visuals, and dynamic combat make for an enjoyable adventure that encourages teamwork and problem-solving. While it might not satisfy fans seeking a traditional single-player Tomb Raider journey, those who are open to a different kind of Lara Croft adventure will find a rewarding and memorable journey in the Guardian of Light.

Pretty dope! Doesn't out stay its welcome. Really cool game mechanics which reminded me of a less in-depth Tunic (which I will get back to eventually, I promise 😬 ) Who knows, maybe I'll go back and 100% it some day. I look forward to seeing what they improved (if anything) on the next game: Lara Croft and the Temple of Osiris, soon!
