In 1996, two things helped the original Tomb Raider game stand out in a growingly competitive market: obvious sex appeal, and a trapezoidal gaming box, amidst a sea of uniform squares. A low angle portrait of a defiant and mysterious adventuress was emphasized by the forced perspective of the trapezoidal shape, giving the viewer the idea of Lara Croft perched atop an ancient ruin, looking down with disdain at whoever thought to interrupt her raiding. With this enigmatic character deigning to tell you of her globe trotting adventures, the Tomb Raider phenomenon had begun. Many more Tomb Raider games were packaged in trapezoidal boxes, and for those yearning for the nostalgia of those first adventures, a collection was born.
