History VideoGame / TombRaiderIII

* YanktheDogsChain: [[spoiler: Get the embalming fluid for the Damned... and shoot them right after that]].

* JungleDrums: As Lara is talking with the captured soldiers, natives start to play and chant in the village. [[TheNativesAreRestless She instantly switches the subject of their conversation to escape plan]].

[[quoteright:240:http://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/screen_shot_2014-06-02_at_4_17_22_pm_3934.png]]

** It doesn't take much effort to sneak up behind security guards. Even at a short distance away, Lara can run around without issues; when she's right behind them, she can walk around (making noise on the ground) and even draw her weapons without the guard noticing.

* AwesomeButImpractical: Grenade launcher packs a punch and ammo is plentiful for it's power, but the way the grenades are delivered means they hardly hit anything moving faster than crawl. The same goes for the rocket laundher.

* UsefulNotes/CharlesDarwin: Sailors from his ''Beagle'' expedition stole the meteorite artifacts and then scatter them around the globe.

* ConspicuouslyLightPatch: ''Some'' of the moveable blocks will be a bit more defined than the surrounding ones. Unfortunately, this isn't the case in India...

* DownTheDrain: London features some predominantly-underwater levels like Lud's Gate. They are [[{{Understatement}} quite frustrating]].

** In London it's entirely possible to [[spoiler: ditch the Damned and their embalming fluid]]. However only by helping them Lara gains access to secrets from Lud's Gate.

* InevitableWaterfall: If Lara falls off the platforms in Nevada Desert during the canyon climbing section, the current will sweep her over the waterfall to the very bottom and she will have to climb all the way back up.

* MysteriousAntarctica: The final act of the game takes place in the Antarctica. Ill-fated hunt from 19th century, armed to the teeth miners, horrible mutations caused by a meteore, ancient ruins of long-gone civilization, {{Eldritch Abomination}}s guarding those ruins... There are many {{Shout Out}}s toward [[Franchise/CthulhuMythos Lovecraft]] and [[Film/TheThing1982 The Thing]].

** Explosives-based weapons take one hit to blow anything short from Tinnos monsters into pieces.

* Speedrun: Just remember that "fast" is not the same as "got all the usefull pickups"

* SpoilerOpening: The loading screen for South Pacific decipes a raptor, lone soldier and Lara in kayak. Neither of which shows up till second level of this section. Made even more egregious as the first raptor that shows is treated as a big surprise intended to shock players. [[ZigZagged On the other hand]] [[spoiler: the loading screen doesn't mention existence of hostile native population]].

''3'' built on the advanced graphics engine from ''VideoGame/TombRaiderII'', adding multicolored lighting effects, environmental rain, fog, and wind direction. Lara herself gained the ability to crouch and crawl on the ground, monkey-swing over chasms, and sprint to gain short bursts of extra speed. The game is probably most infamous for its [[NintendoHard ridiculous difficulty level]]; playing the first two games in the series is probably a prerequisite to even attempting the first level of this one, and even then you're going to have a tough time.

* AbandonedArea: Aldwych station in London is a more recent example, while the temple from India and city of Tinnos were abandoned long time before the events of the game.
* AdvancedAncientAcropolis: The city of Tinnos in it's heyday was this, albeit the technology was considered advanced for the ancient Polynesians, [[InvertedTrope not by modern standards]]. Now it's all a ruin under the ice of Antarctica.
* AdvancingWallOfDoom: India ''loves'' this trope a little too hard.

* AncientConspiracy: Lara finds [[spoiler: a masonic lodge]] around closed [[UsefulNotes/TheLondonUnderground Aldwych station]].

* {{Area 51}}: Nevada section of the game takes place in the surroundings and inside the base. Which also shows off many of the tropes associated with that place.

** The game graphics, textures and models are ''much'' better than in previous two games.

* ArtificialStupidity: Even if improved, the AI still has its moments. Most notable are melee fights between convicts and guards, where both parties will circle around, chasing each other at hand's reach. Some enemies have visible range limit, so you can stand just behind it and they won't come any closer to retaliate.

* AwesomeButImpractical: Grenade launcher packs a punch and ammo is plentiful for it's power, but the way the grenades are delivered means they hardly hit anything moving faster than crawl.

* BlockPuzzle: A few, par course for the series, but most notable examples are in India and London.

* BodyHorror: the most extensive examples come from this game.

* ConspicuouslyLightPatch: ''Some'' of the moveable blocks will be a bit more defined than the surrounding ones.

** Caves of Kaliya is a sizable labirynth full of death traps... and no indication where to go or what to do. Many routes deliberately return to the starting point and thanks to the textures it's easy to miss and keep on circling ''for hours''. The level can be traversed under 7 minutes when the road is known.

* HellIsThatNoise: Buzzsaw traps from Coastal Village sound more like screams of animals gutted alive. It's ''really'' unnerving, since you can hear them for almost a quarter of the whole level.
* HungryJungle: Invoked

* JumpScare: Used very often and yet they retain full potential for the whole game, keeping players on their toes.

** At one point of R/X Tech Mine Lara is forced to crawl, while from the opposite side a mutant is slowly getting closer to her. He's only visible thanks to the camera screw, turning a guaranteed JumpScare into "just" a tense moment.

* DifficultButAwesome: Kayak might look frustrating at first, but after mastering it's controls, Mabudu Gorge turns into one of the most enjoyable in the whole game.

** If you decide to help Lara's allies during fights, they will survive much longer (or even make it to the end), being helpful in future fights
** In London it's entirely possible to [[spoiler: ditch the Damned and their embalming fluid]]. However only by helping them Lara gains access to secrets from Lud's Gate

* InfinityMinusOneSword: The humble shotgun will carry you throught most of the game and becomes obsolete just right before getting your hands on [[InfinityPlusOneSword Desert Eagle]]. It's obtainable before Lara meets her first enemy.

** If there is more than a single way to get somewhere, the shortest way is always the one without secrets.

** In-game, the Infada Stone was held briefly by Infada tribe from India, but it originates from Polynesian culture.
* NoobBridge: Better learn how to sprint and crouch, and fast. In Nevada Desert, should Lara fall into the canyon pool, she can only get out by jumping across a bunch of rocks. One jump appears to require her to do the run+jump+grab combo, but pressing grab actually lowers her arc slightly; she'll bounce off the rock if she tries to grab it, and will just make it if she doesn't.

* OlderThanTheyLook: Sophia Leigh looks to be in her "late twenties; early thirties", but one of her henchmen tells Lara that his father and grandfather both worked for her. She is in fact immortal.
* OneHitKill: [[spoiler: Dr. Willard's]] spider form fires homing energy projectiles that cannot be defended against and are one-hit kills.

* SpoilerOpening: The loading screen for South Pacific decipes a raptor, lone soldier and Lara in kayak. Neither of which shows up till second level of this section. Made even more egregious as the first raptor that shows is treated as big surprise intended to shock players. [[ZigZagged On the other hand]] [[spoiler: the loading screen doesn't mention existence of hostile native population]].

* TooAwesomeToUse: Rocket launcher, as there are about 15 rockets in the whole game. And the enemies you finally want to use it against [[MadeOfIron can easly soak them]].

* NauseaFuel: The Damned not only have their skin melted away and rotting flesh. They use embalming fluid to preserve their bodies.

* TheyChangedItNowItSucks: Hardly a [=YMMV=], as the grenade launcher is useless when compared with it's [=TR2=] incarnation.

* {{Foreshadowing}}: First time Lara encounters a statue in India, it looks like nothing more than an impressive model. Next room? Similar statue comes to life and it's trying to kill Miss Croft.

* SuspiciousVideogameGenerosity: Unlike [[VideoGame/TombRaiderII TR2]], flares are everywhere and there is no real point to keep on saving them.

* YouNoTakeCandle: The cannibal with whom Lara has a conversation after Crash Site speaks this way.

* ArtisticLicenseAstronomy: Upon impact, asteroids and meteors that aren't going to cause EarthShatteringKaboom simply plow through the surface of the Earth, leaving trail of the destruction behind. They don't simply bury deep in the ground.

* AdvancedAncientAcropolis: The city of Tinnos in it's heyday was this, albeit the technology was considered advanced for the ancient Polynesians, [[InvertedTrope not by modern standards]]. Now it's all a ruin under the frozen tundras of Antarctica.

* [[HeKnowsAboutTimedHits SheKnowsAboutTimedHits]]: As before, Lara will teach you how to move around in her mansion. Many of her lines are actually recycled from the first game, but re-recorded by Judith Gibbons.

* GoddamnBats:
** Snakes. They can't move, so it's extremely easy to avoid their attacks, but they usually are placed in the most inconvinient spot, requiring from player to kill them at absurdly close range.
** Anything that can poison Lara. The poison will slowly deplete health and can be only stopped by applying a medpack.
* GoodBadBug:
** The very first level can be finished in 36 seconds with few well-placed jumps. Regular version takes around 20 minutes to finish. Keep in mind that taking the shortcut means almost no pick-ups from the level.
** One of the secrets wasn't fully removed from beta version of the game, so it can be used to cover potential loss of single secret during gameplay ''or'' provide extra secret when all the rest was also picked.
** As mentioned below, you can combine firepower and fire rate of any two two-handed weapons thanks to the bug.

** Inverted with Dr. Willard. When he's first introduced, it's an FMV cutscene- he's never seen again until the end. When he shows up at the end, his cut-scenes are made using the game engine. A sizable chunk of players didn't even realise who is this guy eating soup.

* ThatOneLevel:
** Temple Ruins, the ''second level of the game''.
** The Lost City of Tinnos is equally loathed by players.
** Whole London is usually That One Section.

* BlockPuzzle: A few, par course for the series. While present here and there, they seem to infest London.

** In-story, the Polynesians living in the Antarctica suffered horrible mutations - one of their rulers was born without face. Thus they moved to the South Pacific.

* Cutscene: They became much more widespread compared to the previous two games, allowing more complex storytelling. Every area has multiple cutscenes and almost all levels end with one (highlights including Lara meeting Sophia Leigh and the wounded soldier in the jungle).

* DistantPrologue: The opening cutscene starts in times of dinosaurs, with a meteorite entering Earth's atmosphere. Then it cuts to present times, where two researchers in Antarctica have found it.

* ExcusePlot: PlayedWith. This game's plot is much more loose compared to the rest, and mostly serves as an excuse to get Lara traveling around the globe.

* HarpoonGun: Useful mostly in London. Almost completely useless on the dry land.
* HeKnowsAboutTimedHits: As before, Lara will teach you how to move around in her mansion. Many of her lines are actually recycled from the first game, but re-recorded by Judith Gibbons.
* LavaAddsAwesome: Large lava pools exists in the final levels of Antarctica. The final level starts in the sanctuary floating on lava.

* MagicMeteor: The meteor laying under the Antarctica has some very, very powerful properties.

** The Lost City of Tinnos takes it UpToEleven, being final "full" level of the game (the next one is a [[spoiler: boss fight with short escape afterward)]]. By the time players are expecting they've reached the final chamber, they are not even in the middle.

* MysteriousAntarctica: The final act of the game takes place in the Antarctica. Armed to teeth miners, horrible mutations caused by a meteore, ancient ruins of long-gone civilization, EldritchAbomination guards of those ruins... There are many {{Shout Out}}s toward [[Franchise/CthulhuMythos Lovecraft]] and [[Film/TheThing1982 The Thing]].

* NonIndicativeName: Only India even comes close to being a tomb-like setting. South Pacific is more about TempleOfDoom, London takes place in urban setting and Nevada is all about {{Area 51}}.

* StupidityIsTheOnlyOption: [[spoiler: Subverted]]. After encountering animated statues few times, you collect their scimitars and have to put them in hands of non-moving statue. [[spoiler: It only opens the door and the statue remains in place]].

* VideogameFlamethrowersSuck: No, they don't. The flamethrower is the most powerful weapon in the game, dropping down mutants like flies. Too bad Lara can't use one. (The soldiers who fight alongside her use these.)

->'''Lara:''' Your perception of good timing is...bad!\\

It built on the advanced graphics engine from ''VideoGame/TombRaiderII'', adding multicolored lighting effects, environmental rain, fog, and wind direction.

The game is probably most infamous for its [[NintendoHard ridiculous difficulty level]]; playing the first two games in the series is probably a prerequisite to even attempting the first level of this one, and even then you're going to have a tough time.

* AdvancedAncientAcropolis: The city of Tinnos in it's haydays was this, albeit the technology was advanced for Polynesians, [[InvertedTrope not overally]]. Now it's all a ruin under the ice of Antarctica.
* AdvancingWallOfDoom: India ''loves'' this trope.

** Inverted with Dr. Willard. When he's first introducted, it's an FMV cutscene. When he shows up later, the cut-scene is made using the game engine. Sizable chunk of players didn't even realise who is this guy eating soup.

* BiggerOnTheInside: The UFO in Area 51 somehow manages to be this to a ridiculous degree, possibly due to how the game engine handles rooms. Or because [[RuleOfCool it's the UFO]].

* BodyHorror:

** In-story, the Polynesians living in the Antarctica suffered horrible mutations - one of their rulers was born without face.

-->''Lara:'' Ripe flesh can be a bit of a delicacy around here.

* Cutscene: They became much more widespread compared to the previous two games, allowing more complex storytelling. Every area has multiple cutscenes and almost all levels end with one (highlights including Lara meeting Sophia Leigh and the wounded soldier in the jungle).

* EverythingsBetterWithMonkeys: Not really, no. In the first level, where monkeys won't harm Lara unless she shoots them, but will make off with useful items like medipacks and even a key. In the second level onwards, they're aggressive by default.

* HandCannon: The Desert Eagle is overally the most effective weapon, but almost all ammunition comes from secrets.

* LivingStatue: The statues for Temple Ruins.

* {{No-Gear Level}}: The most brutal version in the whole franchise. In all other incarnations, Lara is stripped of her guns at some point. Here her whole ammo reserve and medpacks (except for a single small one) are gone too.

* PetTheDog: After [[DesignatedHero mercilessly going through]] the Polynesians and their village, Lara reaches a shack containing a captured soldier with missing leg. First thing she does is offering him escape. Of course, this privided even more UnfortunateImplications.

* SceneryPorn: This game expanded on its predecessors with a range of environmental effects and lush textures, especially in India, where there are few places purpousefully created to marvel the sights. It was probably the first ''Tomb Raider'' game to look really, really good.

* SoftWater: Constantly present, but with an egregious case in in Nevada Desert level. Early on, Lara has to take a jump into a well shaft, which is about fifty meters deep. She splashes into the water unharmed.
* SpyCatsuit: Lara wears a short-sleeved one in London

* ThereIsNoKillLikeOverkill: See above. [=MP5=]+rockets.

* VideogameFlamethrowersSuck: No, they don't. The flamethrower is the most powerful weapon in the game, dropping down mutants like flies. Too bad Lara can't use one.

'''''Tomb Raider III''''' is the third game in the ''Franchise/TombRaider'' series, developed by Core Design and released for the PlayStation and PC. It is the sequel to ''VideoGame/TombRaiderII'' and was released in 1998.

** The Lost City of Tinnos.

* NonindicativeName: Only India even comes close to being a tomb-like setting. South Pacific is more about TempleOfDoom, London takes place in urban setting and Nevada is all about Area 51}}.

* MagicMeteor: The meteor laying under the Antarctica has some very, very bad properties.

** Most of London
** The Lost City of Tinnos

* MultiArmedAndDangerous: The [[LivingStatue living statues]] from Temple Ruins have six arms, carrying a scimitar in each. Not only their attacks are powerful, but they can soak bullets without a fuss and even ''block'' them with their blades.

* NintendoHard: Everyone marvels at the bloody spikes in the Great Wall, but in this one, you can break Lara's neck just by performing a swan dive from the starting position. The first level is probably more difficult than [=TR2=]'s.

* MysteriousAntarctica: The final act of the game takes place in the Antarctica. Horrible mutations caused by a meteore, ancient ruins of long-gone civilization, EldritchAbomination guards of those ruins... There are many {{Shout Out}}s toward Lovecraft and The Thing.
* NintendoHard: Everyone marvels at the bloody spikes in the Great Wall, but in this one, you can break Lara's neck just by performing a swan dive from the starting position. The first level is probably more difficult than TR2's.

* ThereIsNoKillLikeOverkill: See above. MP5+rockets.
* TrophyRoom: Like in ''II'', Lara's mansion contains a secret treasure room housing the artifacts she's collected over the years. Getting there isn't as obscure as it was in ''TRII''. Lara shows off [[VideoGame/TombRaider the remaining bits of the Scion]], [[VideoGame/TombRaiderII the Dagger of Xian]], an golden skull from the first ''Indiana Jones'' film, and even [[VideoGame/TombRaiderLastRevelation the Iris [[VideoGame/TombRaiderChronicles artifact]], at this point unnamed and its significance unknown. There's also a T-rex head mounted on the wall.

* ArbitraryGunPower: MP5 is portrayed almost as an assault rifle, taking down anything on it's way, while [[GunsAkimbo two mini Uzis]] hardly scratch your enemies. Both guns use exactly the same [=9mm=] Parabellum bullets.

* {{One-Hit Kill}}: [[spoiler: Dr. Willard's]] spider form fires homing energy projectiles that cannot be defended against and are one-hit kills.

* ArbitraryGunPower: Desert Eagle is portrayed as an ultimate killing weapon,

* BodyHorror: The mutants featured in the Antarctica levels, and of course, Dr. Willard's true form.

* ImAHumanitarian: The Polynesian tribe in the South Pacific levels.
-->''Lara:'' Ripe flesh can be a bit of a delicacy around here.

** Lost City of Tinnos

* VideoGameCrueltyPotential: Locking Winston in the freezer wasn't cruel enough? Who cares, if he wears an uniform with a bullseye on his chest and you can shoot at him.

* {{Area 51}}: that's the name of a level set in Nevada, which also shows off many of the tropes associated with that place.
* ArtificialBrilliance: Enemy AI is much improved over the previous games, especially with human enemies. Enemies will actively target Lara and evade her shots, and will sometimes even fire a last desperate shot at her after she guns them down.
* BiggerOnTheInside: The UFO in Area 51 somehow manages to be this to a ridiculous degree, possibly due to how the game engine handles rooms.
* BlockPuzzle: a few, par course for the series. Most of them are in India.
* BodyHorror: the mutants featured in the Antarctica levels, and of course, Dr. Willard's true form.
* ClippedWingAngel: Dr. Willard.
* ConvectionSchmonvection: a bit of this in the final levels in Antarctica, which have lava pools sitting right next to piles of snow.
* Cutscene: expanded use of these compared to the previous 2 games. Every area has multiple cutscenes, highlights including Lara meeting Sophia Leigh and the wounded soldier in the jungle.

* DeadGuyOnDisplay: poor Randy and Rory. Lara finds one of them suspended in mid-air, in a crucified position with a huge hole bored through his chest, and the other one on a nearby pedestal with a huge slash through his stomach.
* DeadMansTriggerFinger: Happens in this game with the Nevada MP's. Stay out of the way of the guys with laser sights.

* DeathIsASlapOnTheWrist: Yes if you're playing on PC with the luxury of saving anywhere. NOT so on the PS1 version...
* DirectContinuousLevels: Occurs within regions. Often there's a wall or boulder of some sort blocking the way back to previous levels (one interesting example is the beginning of Crash Site; trying to back to the Coastal Village triggers a mysterious earthquake to dump rocks all over poor Lara).
* DismantledMacguffin: the 4 meteorite artifacts (although they don't have to be physically combined, they must all be present in order to summon the meteorite). There's actually a 5th one, the Hand of Rathmore, that appears in the game's add-on for PC (''TheLostArtifact'').
* DistantPrologue
* DownTheDrain: London features some predominantly-underwater levels like Lud's Gate. They are quite frustrating.

* ExcusePlot: This game's plot is very loose compared to the other ones, and mostly serves as an excuse to get Lara traveling around the globe.
* EverythingsBetterWithDinosaurs: The T-rex makes its third appearance (this time with updated graphics), and the velociraptors from the first game make a combat. Now they're bullet sponges that take far more firepower to kill than before.
* EverythingsBetterWithMonkeys: Not really, no. Subverted somewhat in the first level, where monkeys won't harm Lara unless she shoots them, but will make off with useful items like medipacks and even a key. In the second level onwards, they're aggressive by default.
* EvilPlan: Willard makes his rather subversive.
* HandCannon: The Desert Eagle is very effective against enemies, so ammo for it is rare.

* LavaAddsAwesome: some lava exists in the final boss room for no reason other than to look cool. Of course you can still be killed by it.
* ImAHumanitarian: the Polynesian tribe in the South Pacific levels. Lara comes across one of their victims.

* IndyEscape: to a ridiculous degree starting from the ''first level''. Those spiked walls have a mind of their own.
* LivingMotionDetector: The T-Rex can not see Lara if she doesn't move (a direct Shout-Out to Jurassic Park) - but it can harm her, as it will stomp around very close to her even if she stays completely still.
* LostForever: Decided to simply slide down the slope at the beginning of India without exploring whatsoever? You just missed 3 secrets. Many more examples in this particular game of course.
** A more serious example: Lara's weapons all get confiscated in Nevada, and depending on the order that you've played the levels, she won't get some of them back, ever.
* LostWorld: the tribal village in the South Pacific and the area beyond the swamp.
* MacGuffinDeliveryService: Willard knows just what to tell Lara.
* MalevolentArchitecture: everywhere, especially the Indian temples, which seem to have been designed to kill anyone who dares venture inside.
* MarathonLevel: Most of London, but more infamously, the 2nd level of the game.
* MemeticMutation
-->''Lara:'' Your perception of good timing is...bad!
* MindOverMatter: After Tony impales himself with the Infada stone, he causes the temple to collapse around Lara just by gesticulating towards it.
* MisplacedWildlife: Are those baboons and piranhas in India? What about the dinosaurs in Polynesia?
* MoreDakka: Lara's range of weapons probably reached its height in this game. A particularly useful GoodBadBug allows Lara to combine the firing rate of any two-handed weapon with the ammo of any other gun. Yes, if you want, [[VideoGameCrueltyPotential you can kill a monkey using an MP5 equipped with rockets]].

* {{No-Gear Level}}: the most brutal version yet. And unlike before, all of Lara's reserve ammo and medipacks (except for a single small one) are also gone.
* NonindicativeName: Only India even comes close to being a tomblike setting. On the other hand, this game introduced urban settings to the series.

* NothingIsScarier: happens quite often in dark locations, like Temple Ruins.
* OlderThanTheyLook: Sophia Leigh looks to be in her "late twenties; early thirties", but one of her henchmen tells Lara that his father and grandfather both worked for her. She is in fact immortal, similar to Natla.
* {{One-Hit Kill}}: Dr. Willard's spider form fires energy projectiles that cannot be defended against and are one-hit kills.

* SaveToken: PS1 version had "Save Crystals", which were collectible in various levels and were the only way to save mid-level. The PC version (thankfully) replaced them with a save-anywhere feature, and the crystals themselves turned green and now restored Lara's health.
* SceneryPorn: This game expanded on its predecessors with a range of environmental effects and lush textures, especially in India. It was probably the first ''Tomb Raider'' game to look really, really good.
* SequelDifficultySpike: For various reasons, described above. This led to the game getting a "love or hate" reception, and [[VideoGame/TombRaiderLastRevelation the next game]] went back to a more sane difficulty curve.
* SinisterSubway: Aldwych station is one of the London levels. The trains still run, though...
* SoftWater: invoked in several levels, when Lara has to drop a huge distance just to land in water.
* SpyCatsuit: in London, Lara wears one.

* TrophyRoom: Like in ''II'', Lara's mansion contains a secret treasure room housing the artifacts she's collected over the years. Getting there isn't as obscure as it was in ''TRII'' (simply flip a switch behind the pool, run to the main hall to the now-open door, flip the switch there, and run across the room). Lara shows off [[VideoGame/TombRaider the remaining bits of the Scion]], [[VideoGame/TombRaiderII the Dagger of Xian]], an golden skull from the first ''Indiana Jones'' film, and even [[VideoGame/TombRaiderChronicles the Iris artifact]], at this point unnamed and its significance unknown. There's also a T-rex head mounted on the wall.
* VideoGameCrueltyPotential: You can still lock Winston in the freezer (and this time, take your pistols and shoot at him).

* RunningGag: One village hut has a large medipack sitting at the back. The catch: the entire room is filled with deadly quicksand. It's impossible to get this medipack at all, even if Lara stands right on top of it, and there's no escaping the sand.

* I'mAHumanitarian: the Polynesian tribe in the South Pacific levels. Lara comes across one of their victims.

* NintendoHard: Everyone marvels at the bloody spikes in the Great Wall, but in this one, you can break Lara's neck just by performing a swan dive from the starting position. The first level probably more difficult than TR2's.
