Remember when I reviewed Hitman: GO! and I loved it? Well, in this new series of “game-a-day” reviews (you can read the previous entries here and here) I’m reviewing its spiritual successor: Lara Croft GO. This is another game developed by Square Enix Montreal (I love you guys) initially for the mobile market, which made the jump to the Vita.
What did I think of it? Let my tweets be your lesson (that’s from an Alison Krauss song, by the way):
I’m back with the “game-a-day” feature! Today’s game is Lara Croft: GO. I loved Hitman: GO so I have high hopes! – @MarcosCodas

Already a very different approach to presenting the game from Hitman: GO. I thought it’d be copy/paste. Not the case! – @MarcosCodas

Incredible how different the game is to its predecessor. Aesthetics, presentation, totally different – @MarcosCodas

First few puzzles coming, and again, they’re very different to the ones in Hitman: GO. Really liking the game as a whole – @MarcosCodas

Loading times aren’t optimal, I have to admit. I wish it was faster. But the game runs great! – @MarcosCodas

There’s no counting of the steps (at least so far). I like that. Counting makes me nervous, haha. – @marcosCodas

Environmental stuff starting to play a bigger role. This is cool! – @MarcosCodas

OH, the way they deal with defeating enemies is very, very smart. Nice. – @MarcosCodas

Different enemies, different ways of defeating them. Similar mechanic to Hitman: GO. But very nicely done – @MarcosCodas

That was an awesome time with Lara Croft: GO. Puzzles get hard quick, but never unfair. Lovely art, runs smooth. – @MarcosCodas

Stays truthful to the GO sub-brand without becoming repetitive or imitative. Love me some @SqureEnixMTL. – @MarcosCodas
