    I have fond memories of the latest rendez-vous with Miss Croft in the Temple of Osiris and I wish you the same. [02/2015, p.50]

    Last year’s Guardian of Light was quite the surprise hit for me: the mixture of arcade-shooting and interesting puzzle-segments was a lot of fun – especially in coop. With Lara Croft and the Temple of Osiris, Crystal Dynamics didn’t focus on anything innovative but rather on delivering good gameplay, beautifully designed levels and cool coop-puzzles (this time you can even play in a team of four). So if you don’t expect Lara Croft and the Temple of Osiris to add mind blowing new elements and are satisfied with “only” a solid sequel, I can only recommend it.

    Lara Croft and the Temple of Osiris offers a short but a really fun experience, and gamers who enjoy a good action/puzzle game surely will be pleased.

    Lara Croft and the Temple of Osiris is a fun experience that shines when played alone but also with a few friends. Bear in mind that cooperation is key and you might need some time before you get accustomed to the problematic controls.

    Temple of Osiris is an awesome cooperative game; it offers great synergy and difficulty between characters, which results in amusing and engaging gameplay. It’s best played with friends.

    My main complaint is that there isn't enough of it—clever puzzles, shooting, and platforming have zero fat, and make its four hours fly by.

    Instead of building upon Guardian of Light’s ideas, Square Enix produced a rushed rehash, turning Aztec pyramids into Egyptian ones. Those who played the original game won’t find anything new here, save for some puzzles with mirrors. [Feb 2015]

    Playing the game solo is just too easy and too short (in fact its easier and shorter than guardians of light). For a furthermore challengePlaying the game solo is just too easy and too short (in fact its easier and shorter than guardians of light). For a furthermore challenge and true enjoyment the game should technically be played with 2 or more players. The use of gems to open up treasure chests is a nice new feature but the actual loot itself is just not varied or powerful enough to warrant replayability. Further cons including lack of 21:9 support, sometimes buggy, laggy and poor co-op connection. Overall, an enjoyable experience none the less but the game has so much potential which wasn't explored fully enough.… Full Review »

It had someJust finished it and I must say that it's a pretty smart made game with lots of nice puzzles, weapons, upgrades and secrets. It had some issues with the performance (it really needs a lot) and the controls but once I got used to it everything was fine. Of course it has to have some degree of error since it's a challenging game and some things must be done after a few tries. It was rather easy, I managed to find all the Red Skulls and an overall great experience, especially with friends.… Full Review »
