According to GamesIndustry.biz, Eidos is considering weather to take legal action against Ozura Mobile for breach of copyright. The reason being Lava Kroft, a mobile game developed by Ozura. The game features “a new age woman who has an exceptional thirst for discovering some of the most intriguing and mystical treasures in the world“. Yep, that sounds like Lara Croft all right!

The gameplay is of course not nearly identical, Lava Kroft’s gameplay is based on controlling and guiding flows of lava, like so:

While that seems slightly fun we don’t think it will ever compete with our beloved dead-and-reborn Ms. Croft. Still, the ripoff is blatant!
