克劳馥庄园位于英国东南部萨里郡，它与劳拉·克劳馥的双枪一样，是古墓丽影系列不可或缺的一部分。它为首次接触游戏的玩家提供了一个实用的训练场，并随着劳拉的成长而不断演变。
Nestled in Surrey in the southeast of England, Croft Manor is as much a part of the Tomb Raider legacy as Lara Croft’s dual pistols. Providing a practical training ground for first-time players, Croft Manor has evolved alongside Lara.
今天，我们将探索克劳馥庄园健身房和《古墓丽影I-III复刻版》中障碍训练场的演变。
Today, we’ll explore the evolution of the Croft Manor gym and the assault course in Tomb Raider I-III Remastered: Starring Lara Croft.
《古墓丽影》（1996年）
Tomb Raider (1996)
在最初《古墓丽影》游戏中，劳拉的移动系统由基于网格的关卡设计决定。得益于这种设计，劳拉的跳跃可以通过最初开发的坦克控制进行精确计算。整个系统都是围绕方块构建的。劳拉身高为方块高度的四分之三，可以直接跳跃并抓住一个半方块的距离。她可以执行跨越四个方块距离的跑动抓取跳跃，如果跳跃到的方块比她所在的方块低四分之一，她还可以以一定角度完成这一动作。这在理论上听起来可能很复杂，但这正是克劳馥庄园发挥作用的地方。
In the original Tomb Raider games, Lara’s movement system was dictated by grid-based level design. Thanks to that design, Lara's jumps could be precisely calculated using the originally developed tank controls. The entire system was based around blocks. Lara was three-quarters of a block high and could directly jump up and grab hold of a block and a half. She could perform a run-and-grab jump over a distance of four blocks, and she could also do this at an angle if the block she was jumping to was a quarter of a block lower. This might sound complicated in theory, but that’s where Croft Manor came into play.

克劳馥庄园为玩家提供了一个机会，让他们在主游戏开始之前学习如何控制劳拉，这对于这样一个新颖的控制系统至关重要。在最初的克劳馥庄园中，劳拉不能探索室外区域，因此教程从她宽敞的图房开始。劳拉赤脚穿着休闲运动服，打破了第四面墙，指导玩家如何控制她，在音乐室教授翻滚的基础知识。深入庄园后，劳拉解释了她是如何将舞厅改造成个人健身房的。正是在这里，劳拉向玩家传授了基本的跳跃控制。
Croft Manor served as the grounds where players had the opportunity to learn how to control Lara before jumping into the main game, which was essential for such a novel control system. Lara couldn’t explore outside in the original Croft Manor, and as such the tutorial began in her sizable library. Barefoot and in casual gym garb, Lara broke the fourth wall by instructing players on how to control her, teaching tumbling basics in the music room. Further into the Manor, Lara explained how she converted the ballroom into her personal gym. This was where Lara instructed players on the basic jump controls.

在《古墓丽影2》中，克劳馥庄园的舞厅被清空。不过，室外区域已经可以游玩，并包括了一个障碍训练场，玩家可以在那里测试自己的技能并计时跑步。新克劳馥庄园的起始位置位于障碍训练场的起点，确保玩家不会错过它。劳拉解释说，在“去年那场艰苦的冒险”之后，她决定建造一个障碍训练场来进一步磨练自己的技能。这个障碍训练场比原来的健身房课程更加复杂，包括不同种类的平台跳跃障碍，最后以滑索滑行结束。然而，在这里，劳拉只有在玩家跳跃失败时才会打破第四面墙，指导他们如何正确完成。
In Tomb Raider II, Croft Manor's ballroom was emptied out. However, the outdoor area became playable and included an assault course where players could test their skills and time their runs. The starting position of the new Croft Manor was at the beginning of the assault course, ensuring that players didn't miss it. Lara explained that after 'the gruelling business last year,' she decided to build an assault course to further hone her skills. The assault course was more elaborate than the original gym course and included different kinds of platforming obstacles, finishing with a zipline ride. Here, however, Lara only broke the fourth wall when players missed a jump, instructing them on how to perform it correctly.

值得注意的是，还增加了一个迷宫。迷宫中有一个计时开关，如果玩家足够敏捷，就可以进入门厅旁边的一个地下室。里面藏着劳拉上次冒险中的宝藏。
The addition of a hedge maze was also noteworthy. The maze housed a timed switch, which, if the player were fleet-footed enough, allowed access to a cellar just off the foyer. Inside were treasures from Lara’s last adventure.
《古墓丽影3》
Tomb Raider III: Adventures of Lara Croft
《古墓丽影3》中的克劳馥庄园结合了前两款游戏的元素，因为劳拉现在可以进入她的室内健身房和室外障碍训练场。室内健身房得到了显著升级，以适应劳拉的新动作组合，如冲刺和攀爬。劳拉指导玩家的功能也重新引入。
Tomb Raider III's Croft Manor combined elements from the previous two games, as Lara now had access to both her indoor gym and the exterior assault course. The indoor gym received a notable upgrade to accommodate Lara's new move set, such as sprinting and monkey barring. Lara giving instructions was also reintroduced.

新的障碍训练场允许劳拉首次在克劳馥庄园内使用她信赖的双枪，为温斯顿提供了一个测试他子弹闪避技巧的机会。希望他能得到适当的补偿。
The new assault course allowed Lara to use her trusty dual pistols for the first time within the Croft Manor premises, giving Winston an opportunity to test his bullet-deflecting tray skills. Hopefully, he’s being compensated properly.

但升级并未止步于此。在解决了一些庄园谜题后，劳拉可以跳上四轮摩托车，在赛道上驰骋，让玩家感受到车辆控制的同时，也预示着劳拉第三次冒险中将面临的挑战。
But the upgrades didn't stop there. After a bit of Manor puzzle solving, Lara could hop on a quad bike and drive through the racetrack, giving players a sense of the vehicle controls as well as insight into what awaited them in Lara’s third adventure.
虽然克劳馥庄园最初只是一个实用的功能，但它已成为古墓丽影系列中持久且令人喜爱的部分。
Although it began as a primarily utilitarian feature, Croft Manor became an enduring and endearing part of the Tomb Raider legacy.
