Exploring Tomb Raider WIP Demo (July 1996)
In July 1996, Core Design published a self-running Work in Progress demo of Tomb Raider to showcase some gameplay footage. That demo was not playable and it didn't have any sounds at all.
Years ago, SquarePulse gave me this demo since nobody appeared to have it. Since then, the demo was spread over the Internet because it’s a rare and quite early version of the game. Note that this is not a leaked version or something, it has been officially distributed by PC gaming magazines at that time.
While doing some research, SquarePulse came across a patched version of it. We were already aware that people played around with it in order to figure out how to trigger certain stuff in the scripted gameplay. But someone actually managed to make the demo playable. That makes it really interesting, because now it’s possible to check out what is really in there. It’s still the same version that he once gave to me, just slightly patched to get control over the character.
We hope you enjoy it :)
