A game title first released in 2010, Lara Croft: Guardian of Light is actually one of the spin-offs from the main franchise of Tomb Raider. The game continues with what originally made it popular like the twin-stick shooting mechanics, and like always, you get to explore the ancient archaeological sites that have made the series famous. The game, like many of the other Tomb Raider games, has some action within it, but there is an intense focus on puzzles. You can now play Lara Croft: Guardian of Light on both the mobile and the PC.

Guardian of Light has fast-action controls that have started a faster pace than what you might be used to with some of the other Tomb Raider games. It has more of an arcade-like feel to it. When the enemies come at you, they will swarm and overwhelm you, so you have to take action and kill them fast. Stealth and clever action in the game has taken the driver's seat. To help you in the game, you have the Mayan leader Totec, who was known for being the leader for the Guardians of Light, which is the reason for the name. The game first starts the plot more than 2,000 years before in Central America. You have the Guardians and Totec in combat

Not only does Xolotl escape his dungeon, giant spiders, trolls and demonic monsters all escape to create a new worldly dynamic. Totec does more than serve as a plot device. It allows for multiplayer action, and actually, Totec can fulfill both of these roles. You have to work with Totec to use the various skills each of them have if you will solve the environmental puzzles. Sometimes both Totec and Lara Croft have to push boulder while there are other times where Totec will need to throw spears that she will use as a platform to jump
