Lost Ark is most similar to the original Ark: Lost in Time, a popular point-and-click adventure game released in 1989. It also has similarities to the game Lara Croft and the Guardian of Light, which came out in 2001. In the game, you have to collect artifacts and weapons as you traverse the dangerous environment. This game has been compared to the original Tomb Raider because of the similar gameplay, but Lost Ark is more challenging and has more features than Tomb Raider.
