7. Tomb Raider
Tomb Raider is the latest game in the Tomb Raider franchise, but unlike the sequels of yesteryear, it’s set to reboot the entire series with a new, grittier storyline and a more human Lara Croft as its main character.
Far from being the jewel thief/dinosaur hunter/world adventurer of the previous games, Lara Croft is instead cast as a young woman who survives a plane wreck on a remote and uncharted island somewhere in the Pacific. She faces personal horrors unlike anything she’s ever had to deal with and is thrust into the role of a survivor as she takes the life of a man for the very first time, in self defense.
Armed with a bow, Lara Croft must venture across the island, investigate the excavated ancient ruins, and deal with a group of mercenaries who have enslaved other survivors of the plane crash she was on.
