Lara Croft and the Guardian of Light

released on Aug 18, 2010

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.

muuuito divertido, mas tem alguns bugs, nada que te impeça de se divertir

I am going to be honest: This game is only good with a friend. Playing this alone turns out to be a bit boring, in my opinion. It has a few bugs just like its sequel, but it is still playable. In co-op mode, you can play as Totec or Lara Croft.

Une tentative honorable sur deux jeux de faire autre chose de Lara Croft en twin stick shooter, dans un esprit encore plus pulp rappelant les comics de la série. Il n’en ressort malheureusement pas de grande fulgurance ni de scène clé. Des jeux largement oubliables

It's a fun co-op game, but I wouldn't recommend playing single player.
Not required material for anyone trying to catch up on the Tomb Raider franchise.

A delightful little hybrid of twin-stick shooting with platforming and physics-based puzzle mechanics. Moderate replayability, too, thanks to the varied challenge objectives accompanying each level. Until roughly halfway through, I would have docked some points for the interminable stuttering (a serious problem for a game where timing is important) but I resolved the issue by changing Anisotropic Filtering - a low-impact option in any other game - to a lower setting.
