What Tomb Raider: Underworld is

Tomb Raider: Underworld was developed by Distinctive Developments and released in 2008. It was published by Eidos Interactive. It is available on Legacy Mobile Device only.

The premise, in the publisher's words

Tomb Raider: Underworld is one of two mobile games that are based on the PC/console game with the same name. Both games feature the same plot. It starts in Baldr's tomb where Lara's task is to find Thor's helve. The player has to explore the tomb and find a key to the crypt. By following the trail of Thor's artifacts Lara hopes to be able to get to Avalon where she thinks her mother might be. This version of the game uses polygonal 3D graphics and for the most of the time the player sees the action from a behind-the-shoulder third-person perspective.
