Lara Croft GO |OT| Rise of the (touchscreen) Tomb Raider

Picked it up last night and it plays great on my Surface Pro 3. Really love the graphics and the game is fun so far.

How does crossbuy with Windows Phone work? When I go to the Window Phone store it still asks me to pay 4.99 for it.
 
Just finished it, got everything but some of the vases were tricky to find. Not really sure what the point of the final costume is since everything needs to be done to acquire it.

Great game, though, will need to go back to Hitman as I never quite got into that one.
 
I completely forgot that they could use the Thief franchise for this format. Wonder if that would be a better one than Deus Ex in this series.
 
So who do I have to bribe to get more levels for this game? Just finished it, loved it.

Hitman Go was released in April 2014. The first free content pack was added in July 2014, and the second free content pack was added in October 2014. If they plan on doing the same thing for Lara Croft Go, we might hear something by the end of next month maybe?
 
Didn't enjoy Hitman GO. Loved this!

Up there with Monument Valley as some of the best mobile gaming has to offer. Well worth the full price.
 
Getting a big update tomorrow, with 26 new levels

I've been playing this tonight while watching Jessica Jones.

This game is amazing. It's so delightful. The graphics are killer. The touchscreen controls work well and are another prime example of how touchscreen games can be great when the gameplay is built for the medium and not forced to adapt to it.

Once the snakes and staffs got into play, things heated up. Really enjoying this. Playing on my Surface Pro 3. This game deserves a lot more love on GAF. It's a nice thinker with some nice implementations of classic Lara, like her flips and gun action.
 
I really like the new content so far. Only a couple of stages in, but I really appreciate how the difficulty is appropriate for those who have already cleared the base game. Much more challenging and very fun.
 
I just picked this up from Google Play for £2.40, and I'm nearly finished after maybe 90 minutes so far. It's really great; I haven't played Hitman GO, but it's so clever how they've basically made a board game based around simple and logical rules and made it so compelling, with surprisingly decent puzzles. I'll probably have it finished tonight, but so far this has been really great.
 
I was surprised how tough the DLC was. I think I was on level 8 and I just had to quit the other day as it had me so stumped. Came back tonight and was able to get it and finished the game. A really nice piece of DLC for a wonderful game.
 
I really liked the challenge. Played a bit of it at a time. For the base game I was only stumped for maybe 1-2 stages in total, while for the DLC there was a part of almost every stage which required more complex logic, which was great. This is definitely what I wanted from more stages in the game. Brings the challenge up to a Hitman Go level imo. The two bonus costumes they added for the DLC are really nice too.
 
The game is on-sale for $1.99 again on iOS right now. I picked it up after really enjoying Hitman GO when I grabbed it for 10 cents on the Windows 10 store awhile ago. This game is pretty damn legit and one of the best mobile games I've played since Monument Valley.

It's also on sale for around the same amount on both Google Play and the Windows Store. The Windows Store version runs on Windows 10 as well.
Edit: Actually, the Play Store price might be 1$. My store uses a different currency.
 
This game won't open on my iPhone 6? I don't know what's happening, it just keeps crashing even before title screen shows up...tried deleting and re downloading...has this happened to anyone else?

Did you by any chance turn on cloud saves and are you trying to start the game when you have no connection or aren't logged in to your google account? I had that problem on android before where it just wouldn't start properly because of that.

Hmmmm. Not sure what else could be wrong. Hope you get it fixed though. Phone compatibility can be really annoying sometimes, but with an iPhone I would think that shouldn't be an issue... :/
 
This made my top 10 of the year, honestly. Such a great experience from beginning to end, in that nicely sized "short story" way. Didn't try to overreach, didn't have any padding, didn't burn my time.
 
I got it on my Surface 3 and Lumia 930(crossbuy) for 1.99$, great game really, only thing i don't like is the lacking of Xbox achievements, Hitman Go had those, and especially since Microsoft had an agreement with Square-Enix for ROTTR i thought this would have had Xbox achievements too...
 
So I finally started this after having it for like 4 months. I am in an area in the maze of snakes and I think I am missing something obvious. It looks like I need to jump to a vine but am not sure how. I can not figure it out. I feel so dumb lol.

EDIT: Never mind I got it.
 
Literally pissed off that new expansion is exclusive to Sony for 3 months. I am sick of this. It's a fuckinng mobile game! I guess this is "thank you" to us who supported and bought this day 1.
 
As a huge Hitman Go fan for my Vita this was a D1 purchase for me. Played the first two dungeons and had a blast with it. I'm sucker for these games.

The Vita port isn't that great sadly. Framerate can drop hard on some levels, controls feels slugish sometimes and the whole UI is a bit slow. Nothing to worry about for this type of game though. The loading times however can be annoying. Much longer than Hitman Go if you fail or want to restart a level.

Still totally worth it.
 
OK this is actually really good. Between this and Guardian of Light/Temple of Osiris I seem to enjoy Tomb Raider spin-offs more than the main series.
 
I played through the new PS4 chapter tonight and it was really cool. I didn't realize it was in Croft Manor which was neat. Got a double dose of that between this and Rise this year. Neat new mechanics and I like how it worked in a doppelganger into the mix. Going to clean up the remaining vases for the platinum tomorrow hopefully.
