The game's low-poly art is quite beautiful, adding an air of mystery to this ancient, crumblling ruins. Each temple holds its own secrets, including tests to ensure that you are worthy of the rare artifacts hidden within their chambers. Puzzles grow in complexity as you progress through the story, largely told through pages from your missing father's diary. There's a lot of interpreting of patterns, spinning dials, and undoing complex locks. You'll feel like a regular Lara Croft when you're through.
