For better or worse, she cautiously enters the temple determined to find the truth behind Illiat's disappearance and to ensure The Nightmare Stone remains safe and sound. After examining the surrounding rocks near the temple, she manages to pull on the right combination to trigger an opening. What had happened to Illiat? Is The Nightmare Stone in danger of being captured?Įver the intrepid explorer, Lara takes matters into her own lovely hands. As Lara makes her way to Peru and then the mysterious temple, she runs across something disturbing: the broken glasses of a certain curator in an abandoned camp near the temple. This forces Lara on a journey to Peru to meet up with Professor Bowmane's friend and fellow curator, Illiat, in front of the sacred temple where the relic exists.

Now it seems certain parties are interested in the manuscript detailing the story behind the artifact, which is definitely cause for alarm. Things were quiet for some time as the stone was kept safely from harm's way. The last known location of this stone was inside an obelisk deep within a temple.

Legend has it that an evil deity called Quaxet was bound to the stone after the Aztecs, Incas, and Mayans worked together to rid themselves of his terrible power. Lara gets involved in yet another perilous adventure after speaking with her friend, Professor Igor Bowmane, who summons her from the University of Moscow to investigate a strange item known as The Nightmare Stone.

Lara also stands taller than most action heroes on the Game Boy Color - literally - as she has been made into a sprite that's nearly twice the size of the average character (48 pixels to be exact). In order to make Lara Croft's particular assets shine on the small screen, the developers have included approximately 2,000 individual animations. This title is also the first Tomb Raider game to feature a 2D side-scrolling viewpoint.

The flickering torches, precarious ledges, crushing walls, and one tough-as-nails heroine are back in a new adventure for the popular Tomb Raider franchise, the first to appear on a Nintendo platform.
