To continue in these 20 years of Tomb Raider series we offer you a retrospective of the best easter eggs in the Tomb Raider games. Enjoy! EDIT: A bit more that were found at a later date were added to the list. ;) The Ark of the Covenant (Tomb Raider) The Ark of the Covenant from the Indiana Jones movies can be found in Lara's home. It's located in the main hall. (Image credit : tombraider.wikia.com)

A wink from the Sphinx (Tomb Raider Unfinished Business) In Return to Egypt you're revisiting the same area from the main game excepted that this time the Sphinx's regular face has been replaced by a wink and a little smile. (Image credit : Katie's Tomb Raider site)

Lara as a hieroglyph (Tomb Raider Unfinished Business) In Temple of the Cat a hieroglyph of Lara can be seen on a wall. (Image credit : @VampiraJen on Twitter for the first one, myself for the second)

The T-Rex secret area (Tomb Raider II) The first level of Tomb Raider II contains a hidden section where two T-Rex can be found with a secret to collect. It's a nod to one of the most memorable moments of Tomb Raider when you encounter the T-Rex in the Lost Valley. (Image credit : otakusphere.com)

The Gold Idol & the Iris (Tomb Raider III) In the treasure room in Lara's Home several artefacts and trophies can be seen. One of them is the Gold Idol from the Indiana Jones movies with Mike Schmitt's face on it (Richard Morton confirmed it in an interview) and the other is the Iris seen later in Tomb Raider The Last Revelation and Tomb Raider Chronicles.

Mike Schmitt (Tomb Raider III The Lost Artefact demo) In the demo of Highland Fling (Tomb Raider III The Lost Artefact) this hilarious picture of Mike Schmitt can be seen on the side of a tower. It's nicely hidden and to access it you have to make complicated jumps to reach the right location. It was removed from the final version of the game. (Image credit : myself ;) )

??? (Core-Design.com) A nicely hidden easter egg can be found on our website since Day 1. Not sure how many of you managed to find it yet as it is very hard to locate but if you find it let us know and you'll officially become our very first easter egg hunter. ;) Update : It appears that some of you are trying to find it so here are a couple of tips to make your search easier : it's not located in the About section and you can also skip the whole Goodies and Community sections as they weren't open yet when the website launched. Keep having fun searching it ! ;) Update #2 : Someone managed to find it.
