"I didn’t realise there was 2 levels in 1 with this download as we get a small home level as well, but unfortunately the
house section was disappointing as there isn’t much substantial to do apart from wandering around to open up new
areas or rooms and there isn’t even a finish trigger I could find either but at least the opening vocal lines were amusing I
guess. The main level is a TR2 style Venice level with the obvious textures and visuals including fun speedboat rides
and of course the smashing and jumping through windows and over canals etc I love it. Other tasks include platforming,
shooting bells and looking for items etc but the challenge element was clearly the tricky but enjoyable timed runs
across ledges, one is optional for a secret, another is outside across rooftops and there’s a third harder one with inside
with blade traps! Enemies unfortunately only included men and dogs but there is plenty of other threats and dangers
with broken glass, swinging sacks and boxes, underwater blades/fans and collapsing floor tiles. Strange choice with
helmet but I did like the overall style and music choices here." - John (04-May-2025) |

"Bugs/Functional Issues
- As noted in the readme, Lara can almost get stuck by staying on top of a moving elevator. I say almost, because one of the floor tiles is not solid and Lara can drop through it to avoid a softlock.
- The double doors with the office keyholes opened on their own when I approached them. This lead to some confusion as I ran out of ways to proceed - turns out the keys must still be used in order to spawn the enemies needed to complete the adventure.
What I Disliked
- I wasn't sure if I was imagining things or if Lara's jumps were weaker. The readme has a note about long jumps, but I also had trouble with certain height-based acrobatics like jumping forward onto a 4-click slope, which made the level a little harder to play than it might have been otherwise.
What I Liked
- This short level is a nice test of dexterity, with several timed runs to challenge the player, and many of those contain several traps.
- The level is also punctuated with combat against a good variety of enemies. Lara doesn't have her pistols, but the automatic weapons she starts with were enough to get the job done, and I wasn't left wanting for ammo.
- The visuals are a good remix of the Venitian asthetics from TR2 and BTB venice.

| "I somehow spent 2 hours in this 15-min level and tbh I don't know why, it's not really difficult or confusing except from a part when I stopped the underwater fan then I realized I skipped about 1/5 of the game. The only bad thing was a gauntlet to a sudden keyhole therefore a likely repeat (then the same [but not as painful] with the circuit). You can softlock with falling blocks but not so likely. Secrets are nicely ported from 3D but I don't get the bonus weapon, as it's worse than the basic one. Curiously, the map looks better in game than in trview (not seeing this often). The manor prelude is also good albeit unfinished, I liked the colors a lot, however an NPC is likely to miss and I couldn't understand what the gladiator was saying through the helmet. All in all a better creation by Shadoofus, recommended." - DJ Full (13-Mar-2025) |

| "Do you know, I actually rather enjoyed
myself here. The moonlit, slightly eerie
Venetian atmosphere is nicely executed and
the setting is pleasant to look at and
explore. The gameplay difficulty ramps up
nicely throughout, including a couple of
tricky timed sequences that spice
proceedings up (maybe a couple of the blades
in the trapdoor run could have been removed
to make it a little fairer) and a nice
little boat ride. Enemies are somewhat
sporadically placed, so the focus is mainly
on exploration, but it does end rather
nicely with a brief boss battle. I liked it." - Ryan (13-Mar-2025) |
