Join me as we go back to 1996 and replay the first legendary outing of socialite treasure hunter Lara Croft, in Tomb Raider 1.

Released for the Playstation 1, PC and Sega Saturn, the fantastical platformer set the foundation for one of the most successful video game franchises of all time.

Why was the square grid layout so great?
Why didn't you see environments moving?
What even is the plot?

Feel like the reason no one remembers all the crazy horror aspect is because none of us got that far 😂 this game was SO HARD. This video was fantastic. Thank you so much for taking me down memory lane! Loved it

One of my fondest memories is me and my siblings huddled around the television while my mom read the strategy guide and my dad played. I miss those nights so much.

This game was very special to me. When i was a kid we were skint and my mum was on her own caring for me but one christmas i opened a present and it was a ps1 and tomb raider.... Even then i knew she couldn't have afforded that but it meant so much. We'd sit on the couch together and play it, she'd help with some of the puzzles because they were too difficult for me to figure out. Aaaah memories

I was 42 years old playing this game when it came out recovering from a hernia operation and divorce. It is the only game I have ever completed. It was immersive and amazing. It took lots of retries and needed a save. I sold the PS1 to buy an IBM PCand had hundreds of calls for weeks after sale. The internet was tiny then .

I’ll never forget my dad waking me up in the middle of the night to excitedly share that he had beat natla.. we had been stuck at that point for some time, and my dad who normally never played video games had taken tomb raider as a personal challenge. It’s one of my favorite memories as a child. Just bonding playing this game with him.

I remember playing this with my daughter (4year old)back in the day when I still had hair. She spectated and directed me obviously. One night after she had gone to bed I fought my way down a waterfall then climbed a wall and found the valley of the dinosaurs. I was so excited about it I got her up out of bed ( it was around midnight) just so she could see a T-Rex chase after her dad. She is now grown up and we both look back on Tomb Raider with great fondness. I played every game of TR and loved them all until the open world ones which never did anything for me. Long live Lara.

I was born 1996. My dad played all the Tomb Raider games - and I remember almost all of them. Not the crazy stuff - but the T-Rex for example. And I LOVED the Midas death! I still remember that! My dad told me a little about it and went out of his way to show me the sequence of Lara turning into gold. I really got into mythology later :'D

There's something so funny to me about Lara getting obliterated by the giant hammer trap. Like some ancient architect predicted that grave robbers would be too preoccupied wondering about what this strange pressure plate does to notice the colossal mallet looming above them.

Oh my god. I remember playing this on PS1 and I was so hyped. I remember my dad coming to my room and watching me play. He even went to the store late in the evening to buy me a memory card cause I didn't have one so I could save my progress. Amazing

For anyone who saw Oppenheimer this year, the explosion from the intro at 3:00 is actually the very same bomb test at Los Alamos from the film. Tomb Raider plotlines have been driven by real world events a few times but in very background sort of ways, like the shipwreck of the Maria Doria in Tomb Raider 2 imagined as a sister ship to the real world SS Andrea Doria, which also sank.

My older brother and I were stuck on the Midas puzzle for like 2 months when we were kids. I bought a PC magazine "Svet Kompjutera" where the "Tips & Tricks" section gave the solution, making us the envy of our peer circle (this was in 1998, before widespread internet connections or wikis for every game).

It wasn't just good, it pretty much defined an entire Genre of games. A milestone in video game history.

I’m old enough to remember playing this when it first came out and being blown away by the graphics. How times have changed 😂

hitting the r1 and l1 at the exact right time when climbing up resulted in a really elegant animation of Lara getting up. also hitting the same buttons while jumping of a cliff resulted in a cool head dive. funnier when you knew there was a solid ground below :D

That game was hardcore to try to complete. I remember getting stuck on nearly every level. They was exciting times for the gaming world. Playstations 3D graphics was mindblowing. Everybody wanted a playstation once you seen a snipit of a game in action.

The soundtrack didn't kick in much during gameplay anyway. That's what makes the game so atmospheric. You genuinely feel like you're alone in these places. Great game that brings back so many amazing memories.

It blows my mind to see that her weapons were shown on her body back then when more than 20 years later most games still lack that detail

I remember when I first saw a demo of this game. I was blown away when Lara climbed a ledge, then looked around and the camera zoomed all around where she looked. I'd never seen anything like that before. Mind-blowing stuff. ❤🤯

I never played the first Tomb Raider, so this was a hyper condensed Lets Play that finally let me get to see it all. I know that's not the intent behind the structure but it sure was fulfilling in that regard. Keep em coming please!
