after plenty of online searching i have managed to get it to work on win11. Process Lasso doesnt work it will work manually if you set the process affinity 7FFFF you can launch the game from a command prompt inside the game folder with the command start /affinity 7FFFF lcgol.exe if your steam library is on C change it to that below. copy this into a .txt file then rename it to .bat and then you just need to double click it to launch lara croft cd /d R:\SteamLibrary\steamapps\common\Lara Croft and the Guardian of Light && start /affinity 7FFFFF lcgol.exe

A game where instead of raiding tombs, you just guard lights.

Jan. 2025

Lara Croft and the Guardian of Light is an isometric action-adventure game that still holds up surprisingly well. The gameplay is fun, with a mix of puzzles, combat, and exploration that feels rewarding. The graphics, while dated, remain visually appealing for an older title. The story is decent but more of a backdrop for the enjoyable co-op experience. Definitely one of those classics you can still have fun with in 2025. 8/10.

Nov. 2024

Well done co-op game. Has a lot of puzzles centered around unique interactions of Lara and Totec. The puzzles get very clever near the end of the game, without relying on introducing new mechanics. The combat was pretty fun too, works well as a couch co-op game. Would not recommend as a single player experience.

Oct. 2024

It's a fun top down action game featuring Lara. It even has a Couch Coop and is not too complicated or too hard - so I can play with wife and kids, too :D
