question for fellow tomb raiders: Is the 'Lost artefact' worth buying alone?

[Seth Koopa]

I own all Tomb raider games apart from the "Lost artifact". I got TR3 when it first came out, and where I live (in Iceland, Europe), the "Lost artifact" only comes with TR3, so when TR3 + LA came out, I didn't want to buy the whole game again just for the added levels. I know you can buy "Lost artifact" seperately from America, but I just want to know, from those who have played that game, whether you think it's worth it. I'm just interested in hearing your praise and criticism on the game; that might help me make my mind up whether I'd want to buy it some day.

There is a Lost Artefact demo if you want to try it.

Its the #8, the last on the list. Personally I have never played it.

[CatSuit&Ponytail]

It's a beautiful game. I really like it. I'd buy it again.

It wasn't bad, but when you think how many custom levels there are out there that are better, then you know what my answer is.

[GeorgeMaciver]

The Lost Artefact is fabulous, one of my favourite TR adventures. And if this copy ever gets broken, I'll buy it again.

[maniac44]

I'd buy it, but I'm a little bias.

[Rose662]

Yes, definitely!

The Lost Artifact was the first TR game I ever played and it got me hooked to TR.

Thanks for the link to the demo, Trinity! I am playing it now but I have yet to make my mind up.

EDIT:

Man that demo is short! I had found the lack of available options to me suspiciously limited, but when I inserted that stone into the socket, I was not expecting the demo to end! I think the gate's the way down into Willard's lair, but I may be thirsty for more. Possibly enough for a Christmas present.

In the full game, the first level is longer. You'll be able to find some secrets that will open other areas in the first level.

I'm sure Lost Artefact is fairly cheap now so I'm sure its worth the money.

Lost Artefact is well worth the money indeed in my opinion, I love the demo and have always wanted to buy it after playing that but it seemed to have been rare around these parts back in the day but now that I can get it from ebay I have no computer of my own to play it on, sux.

EDIT: I love the lockness monster in the demo, made me want to goto scotland and search for it.
