A remake of Tomb Raider
Tomb Raider: Anniversary is a remake of the original Tomb Raider with a technically more advanced graphics engine. It has the same basic storyline, though some cutscenes and much of the dialogue within have been expanded or modified in other ways. Locations correspond to those of the original version and are accessed in the same order, but have been re-designed with different layouts and mostly completely different puzzles which allow implementation of new moves: swinging on ropes and using a grappling hook at specific points.

Tomb Raider: Anniversary is a solid remake that takes the classic adventure and gives it a modern coat of paint. The puzzles are still fun, Lara feels smooth to control, and it's got that nostalgic charm. But, it also feels like it plays things a bit too safe – some of the clunky charm of the original is gone, and it doesn't really add anything new to the formula. Still, if you're a Tomb Raider fan and never played the first game, this is totally worth checking out.
