Yes the Japanese version of the game is called Tomb RaiderS with a "s" for whatever reason lol. It's a hard game to love - the graphics have not aged well and the controls feel quite heavy and sluggish. There's also a lot of moments when you get insta-killed if you don't know what's coming next, like disguised spike traps or stealth boulders. Having said that it will always hold a special place in my heart. The level design is excellent, the controls - while stiff - are accurate and the soundtrack (when it has one..) is top-tier. It's probably a lot more fun on a second playthrough since you're not spending so much time wandering around lost lol.
