The game presents a world in 3D, a series of tombs, and other locations, through which the player must guide Lara, killing dangerous animals and other creatures, while collecting objects and solving puzzles along the way. In later games, Lara's targets become predominantly human, which sparked some criticism from gamers who felt the games were becoming too violent.
