Extension Levels

Tomb Raider 1 Expansion

This expansion includes 4 levels for PC only. (Tomb Raider Gold for the Macintosh includes these levels, so there's no need to download them. Tomb Raider Gold is the only version of TR1 for Mac). The two mini storylines are called "Unfinished Business" and "Shadow of the Cat". You must have the original Tomb Raider CD in order to play.

If you're having any difficulty running the Unfinished Business bonus levels under 3dfx, I encourage you to visit Dracman's Shotgun City site. Tomb Raider 1 for Mac is the "Gold" version, which includes the four bonus levels.

Tomb Raider 2 Expansion

This expansion includes 5 levels for PC and Macintosh entitled "The Golden Mask". For the full 5-level expansion, you must have the original Tomb Raider 2 CD in order to play.

Tomb Raider 4 expansion - London Times exclusive level

PC only. (32.9 MB) A stand-alone playable level using the TRLR engine. The Times has apparently taken down their Lara Microsite, but you can still download the level from the sites below.
