Bugs

Bugs are usually program errors, which will keep the game from working correctly. There are a lot of those in the Tomb Raider Games. Some can be quite useful, others might make the game difficult or impossible.

The serious bugs will hinder the gamer to continue as planned.

• Invisible Walls

This bug appears in Tomb Raider III, especially in the 3rd London level Lud's Gate. It will cause Invisible Walls to appear.

This bug appears in Tomb Raider Chronicles, especially in the last level Red Alert. The player has to be very careful where he saves the game, otherwise things might not be working correctly.

• Falling though the Floor

The Angel of Darkness is filled with annoying bugs. While some cause the game to crash, others cause Lara to walk through the wall, to fall through the floor into the next level, or to shimmy in thin air. See Bugs in The Angel of Darkness for more information.
