Tomb Raider was originally released in 1996 for MS-DOS, PlayStation, and Sega Saturn. The game follows the exploits of Lara Croft, a British female archaeologist in search of ancient treasures à la Indiana Jones. The game was critically acclaimed and widely influential. The concept for Tomb Raider began in 1993 and the person most involved in that creation was Toby Gard who worked for Core Design. The original concept included the main character originally envisioned as a man, but the company co-founder was concerned that the character would be too closely compared to Indiana Jones, so the gender was changed.
