I would really love them to do something in the Half-Life / Portal universe. But the expectations are so high that it's almost impossible to live up to. So I do get why they may not want to touch that...

Quoting: RedfaceLara Croft GO
and
Hitman GO: Definitive Edition
I found Hitman GO to be kind of meh. Decent puzzle game, but got old quite fast. So I did not bother unlocking the extra levels. Hitman theme is just a layer of paint thick, so don't get it for the Hitman experience.

Lara Croft GO on the other hand I enjoyed quite a lot. The puzzles are varied, so are obstacles, and enemies. Felt almost like an action game at times, and definitely has a Tomb Raider feel to it. Classics, not the remake.

My biggest gripe with both games is the control scheme. It's touchscreen-based, and feels so clumsy with a mouse. Works very well with a controller thought, so use it if you have one. It will make the games way more enjoyable. Keyboard cannot be used.
