Translation NES / Famicom

Tomb Raider (Famicom) English translation

古墓丽影 · Gu Mu Li Ying

pacnsacdave's full English translation of an unlicensed Chinese action RPG that casts Lara Croft as the heroine of a Famicom adventure.

What it is

An odd piece of Famicom history: a Chinese-made, unofficial Tomb Raider built as a top-down action RPG. The story follows Lara as she looks into an expedition whose leader died and whose ancient map went missing, meeting the expedition's backer, a historian and a local guide along the way.

What's translated

The whole game, from the dialogue to the menus, is in English, and the release is listed as fully playable. The translation was made at a fan's request.

Playing it
