Walkthrough by Harry Laudie

 

 

[Note] If you press UP ARROW and CTRL at the same time, Lara does a forward hand stand roll. It looks neat but I did not find a use for it. [End note].

 

You start with a long flyby of an outside snowy area. Or you can load the author's save game and skip the flyby. Go west to find the house. You can walk on the surface of the pool. Go west and pass a window in the house. Continue to the back of the house and slide down a hill. Go south and shoot the trashcan. Pick up the blue key from the snow. Continue south up the snowy hill. Shoot the window in the house. Stand jump into the open window to enter the house.

 

You are in a room with two levels ands short steps joining them. Go north on the upper level and open the door. Enter the next room and search the table by the north wall window to get a large medipack. You can also shoot the window behind the table. Go south and use the blue key in the key lock to open the large door. Enter and go up the large steps and open a door. Search the small cabinet at the east wall and get flares. Hop onto the ledge in the corner and pull down a ceiling trap door. Pull up into a dark south tunnel. Go forward and drop into the water. Pull down the underwater lever on the east wall. Get out of the water and return down the steps again.

 

Loop around to the right and around a floor lamp. In the south wall alcove, you will find the door that opened. Climb down a wall ladder into the basement. Follow the short tunnel to a room. You can press the pushbutton in the west wall alcove. This opens a door to the outside area. Pull up the floor trap door in the corner. Drop into the hole with the water. Crawl south through the partially flooded crawl space and pick up a red bucket. Crawl back and exit the hole. Notice a receptacle on the east wall. Exit this room and climb the wall ladder.

 

Open the south door and go back into the room where you started. The small door in the east wall leads to an empty washroom. Enter the east wall alcove and press the pushbutton to open the door to the outside. Go outside and go south to find a snowman. Stand in front of the snowman and use CTRL to place the bucket on his head. You get a cut scene of a picture opening. Shoot the window in the house wall to the north and enter the room. This is the room you entered at the start. Loop around to the right and hop up into the open alcove.

 

Press the pushbutton on the wall and get a cut scene of a door opening. Exit the alcove and go north. Climb down the wall ladder again. Enter the room with the receptacle again. Go into the dark north corner and find the open door. Enter the room and pick up the flares from the floor. Search the small cabinet at the back wall and get the crowbar. Exit and climb the wall ladder again. Go to the right and up the steps again to the room with the ceiling trap door. Go to the platform with the plants again. Use the crowbar to open the wall section between the ledge and the window.

 

Enter the room and pick up a note off the floor. The note states:

 

If anyone finds me and this letter.

I was left here to starve to death.

My husband was murdered and thrown to the sewers.

Also, his heart was torn off from his chest.

Please find his heart so he can rest in peace.

Written by Mrs. Forest.

 

Press the pushbutton on the wall behind the skeleton. You get a cut scene of a large door opening. Exit the room and go down the steps. Loop around to the right and enter the starting room again. Go south to find the large open door. Enter the alcove and pull down the jump switch on the north wall. You get a cut scene of an underwater trap door opening. Exit this room and go back up the steps again. Enter the room and hop onto the ledge again. Pull up through the ceiling trap door. Get into the water and swim to the far corner for the open trap door.

 

Swim down and south to surface in a dark hole. Pull up again into a dark room. Pick up flares and shoot a ninja mummy. Go south into a dark tunnel and pick up someone’s heart from the floor. I found nothing else. Exit the room back to the water. I had to crouch and back up to get back into the water tunnel. Swim back through the trap door and exit the water. Return to the room and go down the steps again. Loop around to the right and climb down the wall ladder back to the basement. Place the heart in the receptacle and the trapdoor opens beneath you.

 

You drop into a hole. Run north and the lever ends.
