A masterpiece... I loved every single minute of it and I'm off to start again to find all of the secrets.

An enthralling giant of a game, packed with countless delights (not forgetting the superb dramatic music) and a mammoth challenge to keep you playing for weeks on end, at the least.

Tweaks to gameplay, visuals, and controls make this action-packed sequel a winner. [Jan 2004, p.189]

A definate favourite of mine in the adventure genre for games. The introduction of vehicles, hidden artefacts, and a larger arsenal of weapons improved the raiding experience greatly. Instead of just caves and tombs, there is a wider range of locations, including Italy and China. One of Lara Croft's best adventures hands-down. 5/5 stars.

They Knew what they were doing tbh this generally is alright but controls are still ass.
Also like part of the game it was to much for a Playstation that ment if your were lucky you could have gotten 3 frames IF YOU WERE LUCKY

best Tomb Raider game ever it's not too lonely full of puzzles like part 1 and also not impossible difficulty like part 3 and not repetitive levels like part 4 and super dark like part 5, it just so balanced puzzles gameplay graphic not best Story but good enough and enjoyable.

Even at its most frustrating lower points, Tomb Raider 2 satisfies, and when at it's peak of effectiveness, the game is a soaring masterpiece. [Score = 98]

Best Tomb Raider game ever **** is the best game in the **** introduced new moves like climbing walls,use of vehicles, many weapons and **** the levels are good and **** has better graphics compared to the 1st game.Levels are large but not so difficult like Tomb Raider 3(1998).I also like Lara's iconic long **** game is very interesting and fun to play.Best levels designed.This game is a masterpiece.Best game of all time️️️.

It offers loads of action, miles of ground to explore, great locales, an interesting story (that develops as you play with cut-scenes and is not just hastily thrown in to flesh out the manual), wonderful control and a lot of bang for your buck.

Takes everything that was good about the original game and adds a better variety of levels, vehicles, new weapons, and better graphics.

Definitely a great game, but it was just so tough in spots. I fear that many gamers will tire of getting stuck all the time and not want to continue.

Everything a fan of the original could hope for. Just don't expect to feel you're playing a whole new game.

Most of Tomb Raider II's improvements are cosmetic, and even those aren't really anything special.

Easily the best game ever made! Well, if you like the classic Tomb Raider concept, of course. Within the TR & speedrun community - e. g. see twitch - most agree that this was the best, better than the first technically and in level design, better than all relaunches and best over all. The remake of TR 1 to 3 which is expected for early 2024 is expected to change graphics only, not gameplay and is therefore highly anticipated. This is a must-play, a milestone and still brilliant fun if you like exploring ancient tombs.

This game is my childhood. Brings so many memories. Was difficult but somehow menagable. Despite the pixelated graphics places in the game was amazing.

Es un juego con bases sólidas, pero deja de ser un plataformero exigente para entregar más puzzles, la aproximación al combate con armas sigue siendo escueto y más constante que en la entrega pasada y las locaciones están bien diseñadas pero ni cerca de alcanzar las notas de epicidad del anterior.
