The Room 3 vs Tomb Raider: Underworld
The Room 3
The Room 3 is the second highly acclaimed sequel to an highly acclaimed puzzle adventure game series. This time around, the game sets you in a remote island that is filled with trials devised by the sadistic and mysterious figure known as "The Craftsman". Like the previous games, you'll need to figure out how to solve the game's many puzzles by examining and fixing various artifacts and devices. The game now has better hints, cloud saving and alternate endings. You are given an eyepiece to magnify the smaller parts of the puzzle as well.The Room 3 is perhaps the best game in the series yet and if the developers are working on another sequel, they have an incredibly high bar to reach. That said, it's best if you start with the first two games first, especially if you actually care about the storyline.
Tomb Raider: Underworld
Tomb Raider: Underworld is a rather unique iteration of the age-old favorite action-adventure series featuring the fearless adventurer, Lara Croft. The game retained the franchise's love for intriguing puzzles and yet, it provided a ton of improvements in terms of adding in a dual-target system, non-linear puzzles (puzzles with multiple solutions), new abilities and tools, as well as a cool all-terrain hybrid motorbike.At the time of writing, Tomb Raider: Underworld would be celebrating its 10th anniversary next year, and as such, the game's graphics isn't exactly up to today's standards. The gameplay may feel rather clunky to some as well. However, if you really want to experience a more recent Tomb Raider that stayed true to the old puzzle-heavy format, this is the game to play.
