Tomb Raider Reloaded ١٢+

I’m an OG Tome Raider player. PS1 player from the day the series dropped and I never missed a game. This mobile game took the concept of “Archero” and applied it to the series first game story release and it works great! With similar power-ups and an upgrade system in place, anyone familiar with these types of games will feel at home and enjoy the experience. I know I have.

From the classic character appearance, dual guns and level upgrades specific weapons that you earned in the original game later anyways, and the familiar soundtrack of the original, players old and new to the series will find something to like playing this. I hope the devs are going to improve on the game further, I would love to see more levels or add-ons that involved the other games as well as costumes that she wore throughout.

I really enjoy the core gameplay loop of this game, but the prevalence and punishing nature of the glitches just makes this a nearly unplayable mess. Approximately 50% of the time I’ve spent playing this game has been completely negated by glitches. It’s incredibly frustrating to think you’re making progress for 2 hours and end up having nothing to show for it. The game doesn’t give you any rewards for a dungeon until the results screen successfully closes, but there’s no “press your luck” mechanic that would ever make it so you shouldn’t be able to claim those rewards, so not giving you the rewards immediately every time you complete a stage was simply a programming decision that saves overhead at the cost of frustrating the player base. Some of the runs are 50 stages, and I’ve completed 50 stages numerous times only to have it crap out on the results screen and not give me any of the things I collected throughout the run. If they changed it so that it added the money and items to your account as soon as you pick them up, I’d give it 4 stars, and if they fixed all the glitches, it’d definitely be a 5-star game, but as is it’s just a frustrating experience all around, and I can’t in good conscience recommend it to anyone.

Well, I was rather enjoying this game since it’s release date in February 2023, however nearly a year’s worth of progress will be gone since the game just randomly decided to stop loading and get stuck at 48%. No fix.
When you click on the support link in the Apple App Store you are taken to the developers webpage, which has absolutely no contact info. I tried to report a problem to apple directly and I can’t. It won’t let me select the game when I go to report an issue with apple. The only direct support is in the game and I can’t get to it because the game won’t open. How convenient for the developers.
I’ve also tried contacting the developers via their discord server, and there is no contact in there either, and no one in the server who is a so called moderator has a fix for iPhone users or contact info for developers. Only option is to delete and reinstall, which means I will lose all progress so I’m left with a dead game.
The developers need to take responsibility for their bugs! I can’t even contact them and I have heard that even if you can, you will need your tomb raider reloaded game ID. Do people actually have the time to write down a mobile game ID? Very poor on the part of the developers! So mad what a waste of months of gameplay.
