Story
★★★★★
"Masterful"
Few handheld games brush so close to big-screen cinema: lush jungles, vegetation-choked ruins and warm light compose frames worthy of a blockbuster. The care for detail and the fluidity of the animation reinforce the adventurous immersion. This visual ambition remains a show of force.
Blending an adventurous orchestra and ethnic accents, the music raises Nathan Drake's journeys to the scale of a great action film. The unforgettable "Nate's Theme" and epic flights accompany every stunt with flair. This cinematic breadth, generous and exhilarating, is the whole sweep of the saga.
On the trail of a lost city, a charismatic treasure hunter outwits betrayals and mercenaries in the jungles of Central America. A flamboyant old-school adventure, the tale combines humour, action and friendship with an unstoppable sense of pace. This handheld prequel rediscovers all the cinematic panache of the saga.
Complete: box, manual and disc/cart very clean. Lightly handled.
