Remember Lara’s foray to find Atlantis in the first game, and more recently, in Anniversary? Well, Lara’s up to her old tricks again in the latest episode in GameTap’s Tomb Raider: Re\Visioned series, Raising Thaumopolis. Trying to find the (new) Lost City, Lara is contacted by a mysterious man, Anton Cooper, who provides Lara with all that she needs to find and recover the powerful arsenal of the Thaumopolians, before her itchy trigger-finger gun-nuts can. Facing off against the leader of the gun-wackos in the dream realm (where they are informed by the Thaumopolian leader that death in the dream world will mean death in the real one, just like good ol’ Matrix mindfuck) Lara must successfully complete three ancient challenges to secure her prize.

Written by Michael A. Stackpole and designed by Louie Del Carmen, Raising Thaumopolis, for the first time, actually seems like an animated fly-through of a Tomb Raider game, complete with the sophisticated yet funny remarks by the Countess of Abbingdon and all the puzzle solving elements that are the hallmark of the franchise, making this, practically the best (and truest) adaptation of the games in the animated series. Keep checking back for the last episode in the first season of the Re\Visioned series, A Complicated Woman, where three fortune hunters tell the tale of how each of them killed Lara Croft as they try to recover the ancient Treasure of Perseus. Obviously, Lara is going to crash on their little party and walk away with the Treasure, as you will see later in the episode when it releases. How do I know? Well, let’s just say I am a psychic.
