It’s Zombies man!
Please note that this Review may contain spoilers from the Base game
Some key points that this game add on has to offer:
- New game play mode
- New enemy types
- New area
Replayability:
Just like Endurance Mode, Cold Darkness Awakened offers a new type of Expedition for us to experience. It can be replayed just like any other Expeditions; however, it lacks content that makes it replayable.
MGR Gaming’s Conclusions:
Cold Darkness Awakened introduces a Zombie Type enemy into the game. Lara explores an avoided installation where terrible experiments were performed. These experiments transform men into these mindless Zombies. Trinity got into the facility and managed to get it up and running again, however things went awry and they have all been transformed into these monsters.
This DLC also takes place in a brand new map that you get to explore. With it comes a new outfit, a new weapon and card pack.
Although this DLC is fun to play, it certainly is overpriced for what it offers. The entire goal of this expedition is to stop and perhaps reverse the process of this experiment. There is not a lot to explore or enjoy. The game’s map is rather small and simply lacks fun and enjoyment. The night mode does add to the ‘jump scare’ atmosphere which is a plus.
Unfortunately, the DLC lacks actual content that makes it fun to experience, there are but three puzzles involved and nothing else. You do start with nothing and have to loot and craft your way to better gear, but that hardly makes it more fun.
Grab it when it goes on sale or perhaps in a bundle.
