The joy of going for a swim in Tomb Raider

Core Design managed the same thing with the originalTomb Raiderback in 1996, too. Nobody really talks about it now, while the Mario story endures. Both games were are still, after a quarter of a century the Platonic ideal of their characters. And they had bloody good swimming sections.

Out There's sequel isn't a roguelike anymore, but it's "much more approachable"
