The Torch is a helpful tool found in many Tomb Raider and Lara Croft Games.
Torches can be found in unlit (Classic Games) or lit (Reboot) state. A burning torch is usually used to light up other things like ropes or candles, to burn through a wooden floor or even to scare off enemies.

Occurrence
Tomb Raider IV: The Last Revelation
The torch has its first appearance in Tomb Raider IV: The Last Revelation.
When found the Torch is unlit. Lara has to find spot where she can light it. This might be a simple camp fire, a lit wall Torch, a burning barrel etc.
A torch is also used in the Elemental Scale puzzle.
Tomb Raider Chronicles
It makes its return in Tomb Raider Chronicles. In the Ireland levels a burning torch can be used to fend off Little Demons.
Custom Levels
It also appears in many Custom Levels.
Tomb Raider (2013)
In the 2013 reboot Torches reprise their role as a puzzle element. They can be used as a light source and a way to set fire to other objects. Later throughout the game Lara finds first a Fire Striker and later a Lighter which she can use to light up a torch she then permanently has with her, making it unnecessary to find other sources of fire.
The first occurrence is in the first level, inside the Scavenger's Den. Lara finds a burning torch in a wall sconce. She can use it to light up Flammable Barriers and other cloths. The torch is extinguished when it comes into contact with water. It can be re-lit at braziers.
Lara Croft and the Temple of Osiris
In Lara Croft and the Temple of Osiris Lara can light up Braziers and Gas Vents (ToO) with her torch.
