Is it still worth playing?

An action adventure game developed by Core Design and published by Eidos Interactive in 1998 for the PlayStation and Windows, the third in the Tomb Raider series. Lara Croft travels the world to recover four pieces of a meteorite, through India, the South Pacific, London, Nevada and Antarctica. After India, you can play the next three locations in any order. Each location has enclosed levels with puzzles, jumps and enemies, and Lara can run, sprint, climb, crawl, swim and dive. Her weapons include dual pistols with infinite ammunition, Uzis, a shotgun, a rocket launcher and a harpoon gun for underwater use. At one point she loses all her weapons and must use stealth. It was built on an upgraded engine with colored lighting, and was designed to return to the puzzle solving of the first game. A world tour with a free choice of order still gives it room to explore.
