The catalog in 3D
The same catalog has a room you can walk around in. The cat behind the counter is the AI Catbot, and they pick real games from it when you tell them what you feel like playing. Nothing is for sale, here or in there. Go in from here and this game is already out on the counter, with more like it waiting on the shelf next to it.
How it feels
A moody, nostalgic recount of past adventures with a classic third-person action-puzzle feel.

What players say
Players say Chronicles feels like a collection of deleted scenes from earlier Tomb Raiders, framed as flashbacks after Lara's death. It is short (4–6 hours) and offers more classic gameplay, but runs poorly on modern PCs without manual fixes.
