[Mobile] Lara Croft Go

Out today, £3.99 on the Android Store, plus on iOS and Windows Phone, would you believe it.

Was a big fan of the surprisingly good mobile game Hitman Go but was wary about Lara Croft Go just being a reskin. Been playing for half an hour or so and love the improved controls, beautiful graphics and decent gameplay.

Worried I could burn through it in an afternoon though.

Hitman Go was great so this looks like a winner too.

My only issue was that there wasn't a way to sync progress of Hitman across devices. Is there a way for this?

Both have the option of cloud saves - it's restored my progress after a wipe but no idea if the saves are specific for a device?

Looks superb

really good so far (other than the time it takes to load after you've died), not sure on the games length though

yeah, when you start the game it asks you to create a password to play across different devices. Played about twenty mins on the phone, then started the game on windows and my save file was there.

The puzzles are getting more difficult but not maddeningly so, plus the in level saves are generous so you can make mistakes while learning the level's layout. Enjoying this a lot.

Oooh I didn't think about the game being available on the Microsoft Store on Windows PC. Just downloaded Hitman Go for 79p. Very much doubt it will sync with my Android cloud saves though

Bought this last night and even after only 10 minutes its pretty good. Exactly the type of game that works well on mobiles, like Monument Valley.
