The Lost Artifact note (or The Lost Artefact in International English) is an expansion to Tomb Raider III, included as a standalone, additional chapter in re-releases of the main game.Having defeated the horribly-mutated Dr. Willard, Lara discovers his wallet, which contains a message about a fifth meteorite artifact. Lara sets off to retrieve it, eventually resulting in a reunion with an old foe.The game was released in 2000, for PC only, and then later for Mac. Unlike the expansions for the previous games (Unfinished Business and Golden Mask respectively), this one was not made available as a free download to owners of the main game.Although all the classic Tomb Raider games have now been re-released via various digital distribution sources, this expansion wasn't until the announcement of the upcoming remasters of Tomb Raider 1-3, which released in 2024. |

Sidequest: In all five full-size levels, one of the secrets is a large side area, each containing unique sights and enemies, and several pickups. Another secret in the third level contains George Stephenson's "Rocket" locomotive, along with a rocket launcher. |

Bland-Name Product: The company overseeing the construction of the Channel Tunnel is called "Eurochunnel", with a similar logo to that of the real one. Truth in Television as "Chunnel" was already widely used as a contraction of "Channel Tunnel". The newspaper reporting the disastrous events in the Tunnel is called "UK Today". |

Terror-dactyl: The third level has Pteranodon in a secret area. Though this trope is downplayed in that the Pteranodon behave more like the bird enemies from previous games, pecking at Lara and scratching her with their feet. |

Harmful to Touch |
| | Tomb Raider III: The Lost Artifact (Video Game) / int_ab194660 |
comment |
Harmful to Touch: The Hand of Rathmore seems particularly dangerous, and more immediately so than the other artifacts, leaving, as it does, a trail of toxic mutagen wherever it goes (and, in the third level, major destruction - quite why is unexplained). How Lara manages to carry it around safely is a mystery. |

Jump Scare: A particularly jarring one is in "It's a Madhouse" when, once Lara reaches a certain spot in the level, it abruptly jump cuts to a series of floating mutants with a shock sting. |

Shout-Out |
| | Tomb Raider III: The Lost Artifact (Video Game) / int_c75df49a |
comment |
Shout-Out: Some of the level names are references to other things: The "Highland Fling" is a solo dance from the Scottish Highlands. Additionally, a "fling" is "a brief period of indulging one's impulses" - cleanly in this case (Lara loves clambering over ancient ruins). "Shakespeare Cliff" is a real-world location beneath which the Channel Tunnel enters/leaves the UK, and where, in the 1870s, the first attempt to dig a tunnel was attempted. "Sleeping with the Fishes" is a phrase from The Godfather, and is associated with gangster culture in general. "It's a Madhouse!" is a quote from Planet of the Apes (the level features a zoo with monkeys). |
