Yup, she's back. Again (go ahead, pretend like you don't care). Lara's latest adventure sees her travelling all over the globe, from Area 51 to Antarctica, in search of a number of artifacts crafted from an ancient meteorite. The game includes a number of gameplay enhancements and new moves (crawling and the monkey swing), and this book explains them all. For newcomers, the book also explains each of the basic moves so that you can get up to speed in a hurry. You'll also get a detailed description of each location in the game, as well as an explanation of each puzzle you'll have to solve. Each level walk-through points out the best path as well as any secrets you might find. This is a thorough and well-written strategy guide for the biggest and best Tomb Raider yet. And, oh yeah, there are plenty of nice pictures of Lara--for those of you who are into that sort of thing.

Not a helpful guide, at all!, December 21, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: Tomb Raider III: Prima's Official Strategy Guide (Paperback)
This guide was not helpful. The instructions that tell you where to go are definatly... NOT CLEAR! An example, "Jump down and grab the ledge" When you actually have to: Shimmy left, Jump down, turn right, THEN grab the ledge. I actually give this guide 0 stars, but I couldn't do that... Don't waist your money on THIS book, it's useless! Just try to find a walkthrough on the net. It would be 100% better than the Prima(r) Strategy guide.

For the most part Prima guide books are very helpful, however (and that's a big however), this guide book falls short. There are many omissions (for example, a very important secret is nowhere to be found) and the narration and screen shots jump around and are not easy to follow. I do not recommend this book at all. Save your money and go online if you want more a comprehensive walkthrough.

The extremly hard content and often mixed up pictures makes this a hard to follow book for beginners. Unless you have already played and have advanced to other levels, I suggest not going to the book right away. Or at least read the book a few times before proceding.
