When people recall their favorite Tomb Raider games, it’s often focused on which was their first. For me, that was Tomb Raider II, and as such, it remains very special. For others, it’s the wonderful opener to Crystal Dynamics’ era of the franchise, Tomb Raider Legends. And for many more, it’ll be one of the more recent entries, like 2018’s Shadow of the Tomb Raider. But for all the reminiscing and celebrating, there’s one entry that seems to get little love, despite being one of my absolute favorites at the time, and to replay today: Tomb Raider: Chronicles. It turns 25 years old today.
