So far playing Netflix on iPad has been a terrible experience. The game can only be played on portrait mode, the resolution feels off and the game only supports touchscreen all the way to the bottom. That might work when your phone is so small and you can easily use your hands. It’s more clumsy when done on a big screen. Also it would have benefited greatly if it had controller support. As for the game itself, I’m surprised it’s on Netflix. It has all your typical mobile bullshit such as too many currencies, timers, deadlines with rewards and the challenge quickly increasing after the first 2 chapters. This version doesn’t let you use micro transactions and it gives some things for free apparently. So it’s supposed to be a better experience but it still feels bad. I’m a fairly big Tomb Raider fan and had no idea what to expect from this when I saw it on Netflix. Don’t do it as a fan or when you know you don’t like those type of games. I’ve made it to chapter 4 (out of 9) and don’t feel like grinding to get further. Even though it has some fun elements, it’s really not worth it.
