In a short so good you wish you were playing it, In Vaulted Halls Entombed feels like a series of cut scenes from a AAA game.

Review
Highlights
Wishing This Was A Game
What separates shorts, or what could be considered self-contained episodes in Love Death + Robots case, is that wanting more isn’t bad. With a movie, or a series, being left wanting more is a flaw in a multitude of ways. But in the case of In Vaulted Halls Entombed, that isn’t the case. You want to learn more about Sgt Coulthard’s team, what happened to his team member Harper after seeing what looked like Satan. Never mind, who or what put all of those spider-like monsters in the tunnel? Oh, and who did that statue represent before members of Sgt Coulthard’s team go to the tomb?
Add this to the list of entries that hopefully get expanded on.
Overall
Our Rating: Positive (Worth Seeing)
In Vaulted Halls Entombed may seem like another military shoot ’em up, but with a potential religious figure and there potentially being more to offer here than a guns blazing display, this stands above some of the other gun-toting shorts of Volume III.
Who Is This For?
Those who want a mix of military guns-blazing action, sci-fi, and maybe a couple of drips of religion in there to make the perfect cocktail.
