Challenge Tombs

Challenge Tombs are unique locations in Tomb Raider, Rise of the Tomb Raider, and Shadow of the Tomb Raider. Each Tomb offers a reward for completion.

Overview
Tombs can be found in the hub areas, and are commonly found with markings leading to their entrance.

Objective
Tombs feature various types of puzzles that must be solved in order to reach the end. Types of puzzles include:
 * Physics Puzzles
 * Elemental Puzzles
 * Navigation Puzzles

Accessibility
Some tombs are easily accessible, and merely need to be found to gain access, whereas others will require specific gear in order to gain access such as to clear an obstruction in the path.

In Rise of the Tomb Raider, some tombs will require dealing with a hostile animal (usually a bear) to gain entrance.

Tomb Raider
Lara can explore the resting places of Yamatai's nobility, as well as ruins of Army Bases which now house the deceased soldiers who never escaped the island.

Completing a tomb will award the player with a map of collectibles or weapon parts and will mark collectibles on the map if the map has not yet been found. Completing the tomb also awards 1250 XP.

Rise of the Tomb Raider
In Rise of the Tomb Raider, Tombs comprise of the ancient structures of Kitezh, collapsed mines built by the Soviets during the 1960s and 1970s and even a ship stuck in a glacier.

As well as Tombs, there are multiple crypts, which are the final resting places of the devout followers of Prophet of Constantinople who helped with the construction of Kitezh. Crypts do not require a puzzle to be solved, however they should be explored carefully as they are full of booby traps.

Tombs will reward players with a codex, granting Lara specialized skills which cannot be purchased. Crypts will yield bow parts and a quiver.

Trivia

 * The tombs in Tomb Raider offering parts for modern weapons as a reward became a joke amongst fans, given that the newest tomb in game would not have technology newer than 1945 at best, yet some of the weapon parts are for weapons from the 1970s onwards.
