Tomb Raider: The Last Revelation is the fourth instalment in the Tomb
Raider video game series. It was developed by Core Design and
published by Eidos Interactive. It was released on PlayStation,
Microsoft Windows and on the Dreamcast with graphical and sound
enhancements. The game was a commercial success, selling 5 million
copies worldwide.The Last Revelation features many new moves. Lara can
grab hold of ropes dangling from the ceiling and swing from them.
These can be used to cross large gaps. She can climb up and down ropes
and poles also. She can shimmy around corners unlike in previous
titles. Lara herself in this instalment has a smoother, more refined
appearance. This is due to moving and flexible joints between meshes,
creating a more realistic approach to the heroine. Lara has the
ability to return to previous levels, with some levels taking place in
a non-linear order. She has the option of taking different routes
through some of the levels, each with their own set of challenges.
Instead of the previously used "item ring", the inventory screen
places the items into a line. There is also a compass in the lower
left hand corner of the inventory screen, but it is only important to
activate cheats or to help solve a puzzle in the Citadel level. Also,
when in the inventory, some items will have the word "combine" in its
menu. Selecting it will cause a second item line to appear. The player
can select an item to combine with it to form a new item. A new
weapon, a large revolver, appears late in the game and is very
powerful and effective at stopping enemies. When combined with the
laser sight, which lights a red dot at the point where the bullet will
strike, the player can use it to shoot specific small targets. The
player can attach the laser sight to a crossbow.The story opens in
Angkor Wat in 1984, when Lara Croft is 16. She and her mentor, Werner
Von Croy, are exploring ancient ruins, searching for an ancient
artefact called the Iris. They find it, but Lara finds inscriptions
that warn of terrible retribution for any who disturb the artefact.
Von Croy ignores the warnings and the temple begins to close. Lara is
forced to run, leaving him trapped inside.
