the Scion.
Normal Difficulty Version.
There are two
versions of this game - Normal and Hard Difficulty. The main differences
between the two versions are that in the Hard version some of the enemies are
harder to battle, timed runs are tighter, a few less camera clues, and there is
less inventory (medipacks/flares/ammo) given.

Introduction
– FMV
Some time ago.....Lara Croft, renowned archaeologist and
adventurer embarked on a search for the three parts of the Scion - A set of
artefacts forged by the three rulers of Atlantis, and said to harness great
power when all three pieces were combined. Previously, in Tomb Raider 1, we
saw, how Lara followed the trail of the scion pieces through the ancient tombs
of Qualopec and Tihocan, and
finally to re-discover the Lost City of Atlantis, where she defeated Natla and
her ‘new breed’. We saw the pyramid of Atlantis destroyed and presumably
along with it the scion. In this installment, we
explore a ‘what if’ scenario. What if all three rulers of Atlantis were
immortals, and the other two rulers - Tihocan
and Qualopec, like Natla, had survived
the destruction of Atlantis and were able to take on modern day identities just
as Natla did? What if Lara acquired the three scion pieces before the
destruction of Atlantis? We commence by rewinding the clock and picking up the
story prior to the end of Tomb Raider 1....
1 -Beyond
the Scion - Natla rising-
3 secrets.
Lost City of Atlantis
Go
to the E wall and use the lever there. Turn around, hold “duck” and use the
sprint key to roll underneath the darts to the W wall where you can get Revolver
ammo. Then head into the opening N, follow through and find more deadly
darts and a clanking door. Here you’ll get an update in the diary, read it.
There are 3 diary entries that provide a handy reference for all of Lara’s new
moves.
Breeding
Chambers.
Pick
up some more Revolver ammo in the next corner and save before you enter
the next room. Sprint to the SE corner, two of the cocoons on the wall burst
open and 2 creatures are released. You can choose to battle these two enemies
in the open space of the hall, or by continuing as follows - use the Timed
lever on the S wall, roll and sprint straight N into another room. If you are
lucky none of the enemies followed you in here for now, but they can still
reach you. In case a Winged Mutant comes in, stand in a corner and shoot
it or do side flips while shooting to avoid its fatal attacks. In the lower
left hand corner of your screen you can see how many hits the creature needs to
die and also how many times you still have to hit it. If you wait a bit a Crawler
Mutant may appear too, you best deal with him by getting up close, duck and
shoot it.
The
Atlantean Disk.
In
this side room you have to step on the tile in the brightly lit alcove NW, the
gate in the SW alcove opens up. Get in and grab the small medipack. Go back a bit and into the opening N. In
this room you can take either left or right and do a far running jump to the
slope in the back and back flip on a safe block behind the wall. Pick up the Atlantean Disk and another curved running jump
back to the ledge S.
The
Laser Sight.
Go
out and to the doors S, they open when you approach, pick up the Revolver
ammo to the left. Go to the opening E and watch the flyby of the large
Breeding Chamber, another Winged Mutant will be set free. Pick up the Large Medipack after dealing with it. Go back to the first
chamber and place the Disk on the receptacle next to the door in the NW corner.
A door opens and inside you can get the Laser Sight from a pedestal. The
trapdoor on top of the ladder opens.
First
Floor, shoot the Gems.
When
you enter the upper chamber, two more Winged Mutants appear. Deal with mutants;
then go to the S side and push the block onto the marked tile a bit further.
This opens a door SW, go there to get Flares. Go up the stairs and Lara
will show an interest in an object on the N wall. Shoot the gem-like plug in
that artefact on the N wall from standing on the ramp or by standing up close
to the object and shoot whilst jumping (no need to check out the passage beyond
the burner). Once you have shattered the object, steam will be emitted from the
wall and you will get a camera view of a door that is as yet unopened. When you
go back outside, a metallic boulder will chase Lara down the stairs. On the
other side of the hall NE is Revolver Ammo, grab it then go to another
push block along the N wall.
The
Revolver.
Pull
the block in front of another push block (up in the wall), stand on the first
block and push the other block inside as far as it will go. At the E wall is
another artefact to shoot, it will again release steam when shattered and
you’ll get another camera shot of that door, in which you will now see it
opening up (you have to jump up and down a bit in front of the artefact to be
able to shoot it). When you leave this room head for the opened SE door.
Go
in and get the Revolver from the pedestal in the corner. Go out N and
come to the large Breeding Chamber. (another diary
entry warns you to be careful with the Revolver ammo)
The
Large Breeding Chamber.
You
are one floor up in the Cocoon Hall, shoot the Winged Mutant. Go E, jump to
that rim on the pillar and shimmy left. Once in the middle of the pillar, use
Ctrl/up/down keys to back-flip/roll and use the poles
(Ctrl) to get to the other side (you might have to
steer Lara to the middle of the next pole after a jump). There is a small
medipack one ledge down, drop down to get it. Take a
running jump W to the platform and grab the Revolver ammo.
Face
W and take a running jump with a slight left curve so Lara jumps forward from
the slanted pillar and grabs the pole, swing and steer left to land on the left
side of a TIMED platform. Face the wall left of the platform and jump to the
crack, shimmy left avoiding the emitter. Go around the corner there and jump up
(Ctrl/Alt) to grab a crack even higher.
Then
use Ctrl/up/down keys to grab a save plateau. Best use the Revolver here as two
more Winged Mutants need to be shot. As a reward you can pick up a Large Medipack. Jump to the corner for Revolver ammo,
jump back, combine the Revolver and Lasersight and
shoot the two gems in the artefacts on the E wall to trigger 3 swing poles to be extended out.
Timed
Platforms.
Back
to the corner and jump to the poles that appeared. Climb up the ladder and a
couple of timed ledges appear W, stand jump onto
the first platform. Then stand jump onto the next holding the
forward key and take a running jump to grab the last platform (Release Ctrl for a bit while holding the up key, Lara will
start to climb up faster that way) and run forward a bit, immediately
hit Shift to stop Lara from running off the edge. Now stand jump with grab to
the pillar in the corner (a running jump won’t work here) (Video
platforms).
Then
take a running jump S to the platform and get ready to battle another two
Winged Mutants. Grab the small medipack.
Grab the crack in the pillar S and shimmy around it, then again pole jumping
but also a nasty emitter to avoid, you probably go high over the emitter
without harm. You might have to adjust Lara’s aiming again.
Jump
to the plateau and onwards to the crevice in the pillar N to get that small medipack. Standjump/grab
back to the plateau and jump to the ladder again, this time climbing up to get 2x
Revolver ammo on top. Face SW and look up, take the Revolver and Sight and
shoot two small contraptions on the ceiling, two ropes appear. Aim a bit left
and run-jump to the rope, swing to the ledge on the other rope and to the S
side plateau, get the Large Medipack
on the pillar in the corner.
Stand
facing S and drop/grab backwards to a jump switch. Land on a platform and jump
forward as it is a timed one. Back to the ladder and up, use the ropes to get
to the other side again and into the now open doors. Watch out, clanking doors
around the corner. More traps ahead (“duck/sprint”), and slide down at the end.
Room
with the Bridges.
As
you enter the area, a Crawler Mutant and Winged Mutant hatch out. Battle the
enemies and at the S wall (right of the slope) is a small medipack.
Timed
Platforms, lower the Cage.
Go
stand on that metal terrace structure in the middle that is surrounded by
Mutant Lara clones and both sliding platforms on top of the ladders E and W
disappear. Sprint to the W ladder and climb up on the left or right hand side
of the ladder to just under the emitter. Wait and drop onto the expanded
platform to jump to the bridge. Use the Timed lever at the E end to lower a
block on the other bridge, get to the ground, stand on the central metal plate
again and now use the E ladder. First use the lever before the block goes up
again and watch the flyby to see the caged Lara mutant lowered into a Lava pit,
then pick up a small medipack near the W wall. Back
to the ground floor, stand on the central metal plate once more and up the
ladder W again, over the bridge into the opening E.
Lava
Room, Moving Traps.
Go
right and to the moving blocks, there are sliding platforms below them. Face N,
hop back and take another step back. Run-jump to the first platform when it is out of the wall and jump to the next
platform, then jump to the floor ahead (savegame 8).
Left around the corner is a lever, a Winged Mutant will appear. Kill the Mutant
and operate the wall lever (this is Part 1 of a two–part mechanism so nothing
will appear to have happened). Jump back over the platforms and go to the W
side of the room. Pass through the blocks (savegame 9)
and throw the second lever; you’ll now see a bridge span the lava pit. Get back
through the blocks and cross the bridge to the N side.
Approach the Scion from the E side and watch the cutscene.
Natla: Back again?
Lara: And you. For a grand re-opening, I
assume.
Natla: Evolution’s in a rut. Natural
selection at an all time low. Shipping out fresh meat will incite territorial
rages again…will strengthen and advance us. Even create new breeds.
Lara: A kind of evolution on
steroids then.
Natla: A kick in the pants. Those runts Qualopec and Tihocan had no
idea. The cataclysm of Atlantis struck a race of langering
wimps; plummeted them to the very basics of survival again. It shouldn’t happen
like that.
Lara: Or like this.
Computer Voice: Hatching
commences in fifteen seconds.
Natla: Too late for abortions now.
Lara: Not without the heart of
the operation.
Natla: No! Arrggghhhhhhh......
Computer Voice: Ten...five...four..three...two....one.
2 -Beyond the Scion - Natla rising-
Part 2-
Lost
City of Atlantis
Lara gets transported down (N) and that huge
cocoon hatches. Pick up 2x Revolver ammo W before/after shooting the Torso
Guy. Go E to get the small medipack
and Revolver ammo. The door N opens (savegame 11).
Go into the passage and pick up Revolver
ammo and Flares.
****A Secret Hunt, Boulders and
Burners.
Get onto the block right of the
Flares and climb up into the crawlspace W. Go W down the steps and left into
the room for a small medipack, then go to the room W.
There’s a crack in the left hand wall, it starts just beyond the ledge you’re
on, so jump and grab the wall and shimmy to the ledge with Secret #1, the Silver Artefact.
Stand in the middle of the ledge
and back flip onto the slanted pillar below, slide/jump over the pillars and
grab the crack in the wall, go right around and drop. Save in front of the
passage with the collapsible ledges and the boulders. run-jump
in and run into the opening to the right, stop there. Now sprint down the
sloped passage and right around the corner, slide as far as possible and jump
onto the black rock ahead; go forward (or roll) so the boulder won’t crush you.
Go down NE and sprint through the lava chamber.
Open the gate with the lever and
jump out left. Save again and sprint to a pit, release sprint and do a roll
just before the pit to grab the edge of the pit when Lara falls in. Hang left
or right against the wall and pull up, turn around and standjump
to grab the other side of the pit. Follow through to come to a lava chamber
with burners. Use the corners of the burner blocks to do stand jumps to the
other side and go S.
Follow through up the passage,
left up a block and you’ll get back through a gate to the room where the Secret
hunt started, go S and back through the crawlspace.
****
Go N and start jumping the ledges in the lava
pool and then to the ones with the pillars E.
Timed Platforms and Poles.
Then look E and shoot that gem-plug in the
artefact, a platform goes up. Jump over to the black rock and slide to jump to
that platform. Now a jump to a pillar N and the Timed lever there will present
you with platforms and poles, so you can get to the N side. Of course there is
a Winged Mutant flying around, so be careful, you may have the chance to shoot
it before using the lever. Hop back turning right, turn right till you can hop
to the left hand side of the platform and turn right again, jump to the pole
and swing to the plateau N. Run-jump into the passage (Video
plat-pole).
The Centaur.
Follow through and around the first corner
you’ll see an opening up in the E wall. For the next Secret later. Proceed and
the door at the end opens when you approach, a Centaur waits inside. Shoot him
while keeping an eye on the health bar. Use the lever NE and enter the opening
W.
Timed Target Shoot.
Shoot
the Crawler Mutant, go W and use the Timed jump lever left of the opening W, so
you can shoot the gem-plug next to it before the cover lowers again. This opens
the first large round underwater door. Another Winged Mutant will be in your
way though (this species has only mastered partial flight). On the other side
is another timed jump lever that lets you shoot another gem-plug way up high
NW. This opens door # 3, underwater. Go W and pick up the Revolver ammo and
a Large Medipack.
Go
back and jump in the water and swim SE and there is Timed underwater lever.
Roll, swim out and get out at the pillar SE, go to that brown ledge SE and jump
up to the sliding platform and hop into the opening. Jump on the ledge below
and use the jump lever to lower a block nearby, jump up E and you are back at
the Centaur room. There is a push block SW you can now reach, get it out. Push
the block all the way to the E wall (SE corner). Climb it and go up the rocks
to the left. Standing on a trigger tile there expands a sliding platform. Jump
SW and use the lever, this opens the door below (to get a Secret later) and
also a gate up NW.
Go
stand on that platform facing the slots in the wall that house the Flame
Emitters. Jump and grab the first slot, and then shimmy across all the way to
the left avoiding the flames. Back flip with a roll (Ctrl/up/down) to the first
of the platforms. Duck and crawl under the flames and jump to the second
platform. Again avoid the flames there, and then do a running jump over the
lava pit and down into the opening in the wall. Grab the Large Medipack and follow through the small corridor, hop
down and face the jump lever E, back-flip onto
the slanted rock and jump from this rock to the jump lever to open underwater
door (#2). Go NW to get out over the rock outcrop.
****Secret Hunt.
Go back E into the Centaur room, move the push block all the way
into the S passage, under the opening in the E wall and climb up to get Secret
#2, the Bronze
Artefact. Get out and go to the Centaur room, then W to the room with the
pool.
****
Lava
Chamber with Ladders.
Dive
into the pool, swim through the opening where the three doors opened and at the
end get out and go around the corner. Jump to the ladder on the right, watch
out for the flame emitter, quickly shimmy left around the corner, back
flip/roll and grab another ladder behind, shimmy right around and drop on the
block. Turn NE and look down, if possible shoot that Winged Mutant (out of Revolver ammo? Zoom in, hold that view and hit the
#1 key, Lara switches to pistol ammo). Now take a running jump with Ctrl
to end up on the ledge in the pillar N. Jump N again, passing the burner and
pull up. Jump E and grab the ladder.
****Secret Hunt.
Climb up to the grey section and release Ctrl for a bit so Lara
will hang by her hands, go left around the corner to a crack, tap ALT and get
one crack up, shimmy back to the ladder and back flip/roll to grab another
ladder. Shimmy right and you are safe again. Take a curved running jump N and
get a Secret #3, the
Gold Artefact. Jump back to that triangle, climb the
ladder, left around and back flip/roll to the ladder E.
****
Climb
down to just under the grey section and back flip to the slanted ledge W. Jump
back S passing the burner, jump to the ladder E and go down and left around to
drop to the safe ledge.
Sinking
Blocks.
Look
down N as that is the place you have to go, turn around facing S and back flip,
slide and turn right a bit. Try to side flip to the N side of the block in the
lava, take a running jump to the next, side flip left and another side flip
left into the opening there. (Video lavablock)
Use
the jump lever at the end, a camera view shows a gate opening in the other end
of the lava room. Run out on the left side of the opening, landing on the block
and hop back. Hop forward to the next block and make a right curved running
jump to the next block, hop to the next and do a running jump right a bit to
the last. Then maybe wait for the burner and jump into the opening E. Go in and
climb up around the corner, use the lever to expand a bridge-like mechanism
across the lava pit. Climb up once more and jump to grab the underside of the
overhead bridge to use as a monkey-climb.
The
Atlantis Trophy.
Use
the monkey-climb that appeared and let go almost at the end to drop to the
sinking block, hop to the ladder and you are safe again. Straight in front of
you is an open gate, opened because you got all three Secrets. Pick up the Revolver
ammo to the left.
Go
in and collect Flares, Revolver ammo, a Large Medipack, Shotgun ammo and last but not least
the Atlantis Trophy. Go out of the room and straight to the edge of the
lava pit, stand left and look SE, shoot the gem-plug in the artefact. Turn
around and go into the opening NW where a door has opened.
Natla,
we meet again.
Go
in to the pyramidal shaped Hall and your goal is to use the four levers in the
corners avoiding the electric bolts that Natla throws at Lara, as well as the
nasty darts that are everywhere. You can try to kill Natla with the Revolver,
but it will be to no avail, she will promptly recover laughing manically. Best
is to hold the “duck key” and use “sprint” to roll to the levers and pickups.
You’ll have to stand up every now and then to aim Lara to the next goal. (If
you dare, you also can pick up some goodies, because when one has used all 4
levers, you cannot pick them up anymore). After using the 4 levers, Natla dies
an explosive death from the unleashed forces of the pyramid, her mutant gun
arm, the only trace left of her after the explosion and Lara goes to the next
level.
(After leaving
the level the Secret artefacts will be removed from the inventory, but
cumulative secret count remains. The Trophy is retained in the inventory)
Cutscene
Croft
Manor - Lara reads a letter out aloud
Dear
Ms Croft
I
have been watching your work from afar. You have done extremely well to obtain
all three parts of the scion. By now I am sure you are feeling the weight and
burden of the powers of the scion. We were careless
to let Natla get as far as she did with her misguided plan. The power of the
scion is too great for any single person to bear, but it seems that the
responsibility now falls on the shoulders of a mere mortal - your shoulders Ms
Croft, to separate the scion pieces again and place them somewhere safe.
You
have stopped Natla for now, but an immortal is hard to stop for ever. You do
not have much time. Although Natla secretly set about forming a new army of Atlanteans, our
suspicions had long been aroused, that we could not trust
her. With immortality comes great
responsibility. Natla abused that power. Unknown to her, I commissioned the
construction of three secret safe vaults, to hide each of the three scion
pieces for eternity. The temples that house these vaults are scattered across
the world. I dare not reveal the locations in this letter; for fear that it
falls into the wrong hands.
Long
ago, I met with a trustworthy Aboriginal elder living in the remote north-west
Pilbara region of the Australian outback. I told him the whole story and asked
him to record the secret locations in a dreamtime cave drawing.
You
must find this cave, and discover the three secret locations. Locate a young
man - William of the Dual Canines.
He
is a descendant of the elder I met with, and may be able to help you. I hope
that the story of the caves has been passed on in their tribal dreamtime story
telling, and he can help you to find the cave.
Yours
truly

“Lara in the shop talking to Nellie”
Lara: Hi there. I’m looking for a cave of some sort, but I’m not
exactly sure where to find it. I believe it could be located somewhere in the
gorge. Do you know anyone that might be able to help me?
Shopkeeper: Hmmmmm…. You need an aboriginal
tracker miss. Sounds like you need some fella
that knows every nook and cranny of the gorge. There’s a few good fellas who know the gorge, but most of them have gone
walkabout.. No work in town…. But there is one fella
who might be willing to help you out.
Lara: And might I ask that gentleman’s name?
Shopkeeper: He he… He be a ‘gentle’ man alright.
Always minds his manners, he does. He be called Billy Two-Dogs. I dunno for sure, but you might find him out by the gorge
tomorrow. You tell him Nellie Bates sent you, and he show you around the place.
Lara: Thank you Nellie you’ve been most helpful.
Lara (thinking): Aha… William of the Dual Canines…. William ……
Billy…. Dual …..Two…….canines….. dogs…..Billy Two-Dogs. I think I might have
found my man.

Lara
begins the level sliding down a steep slope into a cave. Move forward and
receive a Diary Update with your location and level objectives. Follow through
the cave and shoot the Wombat. Go S and then right (W), pick up Flares and
return to the passage to head S again. At the spikes look N and jump into the
niche turn around (S) and jump up S over the spikes into the opening. Turn
around and jump over the spikes into an opening NW, get the Large Medipack there. Drop down and jump over the spikes
again and climb higher. Follow through and when a boulder starts to roll down
the tunnel go back all the way, jumping over the spiked pit. Once the boulder
is safely in the spiked pit, make your way up again, follow through until you
get outside.
Billy
Two-Dogs.
Go
E to a small hut with a jeep parked there.
Lara meets Bill Two Dogs -
Billy: G’day miss, you been havin’ fun playing in the wombat burrows?
Lara: Yes, it’s quite a labyrinth down there isn’t it?
I’m looking for some one called Billy Two-dogs. Would that be you by any
chance?
Billy: Yes ma’am, that’d be me – good ol’
Billy Two Dogs – at your service.
Lara: Nice to meet you Billy. My name is Lara, Lara
Croft.
Go
to Billy Two Dogs.
Billy: That’s not a bad set of wheels you got there miss.
Lara: Thank you - it gets me from point A to Point B.
Billy: So what’s a pretty lady like you doin’ ‘round these parts?
Lara: I was told by Nellie that you might be able to help
me find my way down into the gorge. I’m looking for some sort of hidden cave,
which may contain some important information.
While
you are looking around some kangaroos will bother Lara. In the small hut is a small
medipack and Shotgun ammo. You may also spot
some koalas feeding high up in the gum trees, but they are harmless so leave
them alone.
Billy: Yeah no worries, for a nice looking lady like you – I’d
be glad to help. The entrance to the gorge, yeah she’s out to the east there.
We’d better head out there now before it gets too dark.
Going
E shoot some Dingos, stay on the right hand side
rock ledge and find Shotgun ammo under a small tree (SE). Go to the
gates at the end of the path and Billy Two Dogs will come down there. He opens
the door there.
Billy: And what do you know about this cave, Miss Croft?
Lara: A university professor pointed me in this
direction.
Enter
and Billy will follow and lights a Wall Torch.
Billy:
Nah, no professor type come out here. But a fella, he come here a long time ago. I only know of him
through our dreamtime stories. He get my father’s father’s
father’s father to paint a story on the walls of the
cave. But it didn’t make no sense to no-one. Billy remember that story’ cos that fella’s name
always make me laugh. Tea-O-Can – what a fella
wanna drink tea from a can for? He should be drinkin’ it from the cup.
Lara: Tihocan …….. We have a lot more in
common than you might think, Billy.
Go
E and through another door that Billy will open.
Billy: You might wanna head down
into the chasm miss. We’ll need to work together to get across here.
Lara: I’m sure I can find something to keep me amused
down there.
Climb
down the ladder (face E) shoot the Razorback. Go N and right and follow through
for some Revolver ammo. Turn around and keep going right to come to a
wheel switch. Use the wheel switch to raise platforms and watch Billy do a
timed run across to the other side of the chasm. Now go back to the cave where
Billy is waiting up above.
Billy:I’ve
thrown some flares down in the corner. You wanna
grab them and I’ll get this other platform working for you.
Go
NW to get the Flares. Billy operates a wheel switch above to raise
another platform for Lara to use.
Billy: I’m gonna head down to the main gorge.
Start making your way down there too. I’ll be along shortly to help you get
down further.
Go
to the SE wall and climb up some rocks to get back onto the ladder and climb
up. Jump to the pillar N and again N to a ledge and from there to the platform
to get to the wall W (Billy used that wheel already). Follow through to the top
of the gorge and get that small medipack
SW.
Go
back E a bit and stand on the small triangular ledge over the gorge, run in
facing NE with a grab and land on a lower ledge. Approach that gate N and Billy
will come to open it, in the NW corner of this cave is a small medipack.
Lara: So…. how did you get the name Billy Two-Dogs?
Billy: He he……Never mind,
miss. It’s not a story Billy can tell to a fine lady like you.
Follow
Billy down the tunnel and he will open the next door.
Billy: Be careful , Miss. It’s a long way down there, but I
reckon you can get down to the next rock shelf by yourself.
Go
get the Shotgun ammo E and hop backwards grabbing the edge of the
plateau, top up your health and safety drop down (you'll
loose quite a lot of health) and go get the Revolver and a small
medipack NW, then go over to the SE for a Large Medipack. NE is a tunnel, go in and follow through.
Shoot the Wombat and come to a wheel switch, shoot another Wombat and turn the
wheel switch to let Billy in. Follow him back down the tunnel where he will
light a torch and raise two platforms deeper in the gorge below.
Billy: Nearly there now. With a bit of care you should be
able to get down to the bottom. Hehe...Watch
out for the crocs though.
Bottom
of the Gorge.
Get
onto that platform E in the pit, then face S and top up your health, run down
from the platform and land on a slope and onto the second platform. Safety drop
down from this platform into the shallow water and follow the cave. Duck next
to the Boars Head spikes on the right to get the small medipack.
Shoot the croc in the big cave and go for the small medipack
S; Billy is on his way over.
To
the Dreamtime Cave, Boulder Swim.
Go
N to the hole in the bottom of the shallow pool, prepare for a challenge, swim
straight N and left into the alcove, roll and wait. Time the boulder and swim
into the tunnel, left again and up against the ceiling, go on when the boulder
passed underneath and quickly go left and up out of the water. Shoot the croc
and go into the cave with the Aboriginal art murals. On the floor you will find
two painted hands (SE and N). At the E wall is a push block, move it onto the
SE hand. There’s another block in the E wall, move that onto the hand N and the
door opens so Billy can enter. He will light the torch at the dreamtime
painting, which is actually your Map to the next locations.
Billy: Geez, this is a very unusual dreamtime painting. I
dunno what all these different lands are, and this big
green snake, maybe he wanna eat them four cherries there.
What do ya reckon, miss?
Lara: This is a map of the world, Billy. The green line
shows that I must travel to the places marked with the red spots. The spot on
the right is where we are here. The other three……. Well, I have something
important to take to each one of those places. I should start on my journey
immediately. Thank you Billy for showing me this special place. If anyone else
comes looking for this cave, I suggest you pretend to know nothing about it, as
it could be very dangerous.
Billy: No worries, I’ll just tell them to go to buggery.
Lara: I like your attitude Billy.
Secrets 0
Hop
back twice and look up for the jump lever, follow the tunnel to where you just
opened the door. Follow through and receive a Diary Update with your location
and level objectives. Note that Lara is now carrying Scion Piece 1 in her
inventory. Enter the temple and come to a Blade, side flip over the blade along

mercenary and climb up onto the bank SE, next to the statue. Make your way to
the SW corner behind that plant/tree to use a well-hidden lever.
Another
Large Medipack is on the banks NE, you
can reach it with a jump from the banana tree SE over to the N side. Back to
the kayak and through the open gate E. Somewhere along the way through this
small canal is one Uzi ammo pick up on the left. Go further in the kayak
and get sucked down into a canal below, follow the canal, passing through some
Blades. Stop at the first corner and get out of the kayak for two small medipacks on the right hand side,
go further in the kayak, get out at a gate and use the lever on the E wall.
Paddle until you are out in the open, get out, shoot the mercenary on guard at
the edge of the lake.
Mushroom
Rock Lake.
Dive
into the lake and swim to the far NW corner, just around the corner is an
underwater lever to open a gate in the W wall, a bit back under the waterfall.
Swim in through the open gate and stay well clear of the spike traps, go left
(S) and up, follow through to where you can climb out. Follow the passage
through to where you see daylight again and to the right is a lever, throw it
to raise a platform in the lake (a camera view will show you where it is).
Slide down the slope at the end of the passageway and jump out of the opening
onto the large Mushroom rock over the lake. Shoot the macaw and look down NE
where you can see another mercenary on a ledge. Shoot him from here (pistols)
and go to the W side of the ledge, just run off and grab the edge of the rock
below, shimmy right to where you can pull up NW.
You could have used that raised platform in the W side of the
lake, but this was shorter. Jump up NW to the rock ledge. From here
jump N and with a left curve onto the waterfall. Pick up a Gate Key.
Shortcut
Up.
(This
avoids using the spike-ridden water path back up to the top). Hop backwards
from the waterfall and swim to that raised platform S, go jump up NW again and
now you can use the slanted rock W to side flip on it and jump/grab the top of
the Mushroom rock (Video short).
The
Spike Trap Tool.
Jump
NW to a path along the cliff and left into the NW corner is a gate you can open
up using the Key you just acquired, follow in and face SE at the pit. Jump onto
the slanted ledge and get down the ladder, don’t go too close to the spikes and
do a back flip. Use the jump lever W to
open a gate behind the window and get back onto the ladder with a stand jump. Back flip/roll
off and grab the edge, shimmy right and climb up. Back to the lake and swim NW,
this time all the way in and pull out of the water on the wooden platform that
has also now been raised. Jump SE onto the terrace and get the Spike Trap

Back
into the water and climb onto the same platform, jump NE to grab the
monkey-climb and follow into a cave to get 2x Uzi ammo and Flares.
Make your way back out to the lake and up to the Mushroom rock (S side platform
shortcut). Jump NW to the path again. Now follow around to the N side, go E and
use the Spike Trap Tool there.
Hop
onto the block where the spikes have been safely activated and walk to the SE
corner. Jump SE onto the big rock and pick up a small medipack
and Uzi ammo, go to the N side and look down, a jump lever. Top up your
health, hop back and just run down from the edge, slide and back flip
into an alcove. You can also grab the far rock wall ledge and safety drop to
the slope from there. Now you can jump to the jump lever, raising a platform on
the ledge E in the lake. Back up the shortcut to the Mushroom rock again and
over to the rock E again where you used the jump lever. This time hang from the
S end and use the jump lever below. Swim to the ledge with the now open door
(where you shot the last mercenary, right behind you), climb up on the platform
S of the ledge.
To
the Sun Disc.
Go
into the passage where the roller door opened and shoot the two Panthers.
Follow through and at the T-junction face S, slide and jump onto the ledge
ahead, do a roll to get further away from the boulder. Go up where the boulder
came from and get the Large Medipack.
Back down and through the passage S, turn around at the gate and open the gate
with that jump lever high above. Jump out to the left and grab the edge of the
rock, shimmy right around the corners until you can’t go any further. back-flip with roll and grab the ladder, go left into the
opening (or climb up and hold Ctrl+up
to get on the monkey-climb). Follow through
and jump to the block W and left, hang a bit away from the wall and pull up
over. Slide and jump left into a passage.
Throw
the lever W and go into the room, in the SW corner is a push block, pull it out
and climb up to use the lever. A bell-like object is lifted from the Sun
Disc, go and get it. A gate opened SE, go through to the open door E. In
the far corner SE is a small medipack,
go and get that first. Then go to the lever under the spiked ceiling and pull
it, roll and sprint out avoiding all spike traps. Go up W and the exit door N
is open again.
Go
back to the lake and go back up to the Mushroom rock. Place the Disc on the
pedestal in the SE corner (face N to place it). Watch the flyby and then shoot
all the renegades. They leave behind 2x Shotgun ammo. Dive in the
water NE and swim into the corner there, through the open door to the next
level.

The
Keystone.
Go
behind the pedestal and a block lowers, follow through, kill the snake. Save in
front of the slope W, jump up the slope and run with a left curve to jump left
(SW) and grab the crawl space. Crawl through and out at end, hang on the ladder
under the crawlspace, against the right hand wall and back-flip/roll/grab
to the ladder behind Lara, go up a bit and traverse around and back flip to the
ledge. Push that round block (E) in as far as it goes and climb up onto the
block. Jump into the opening N, follow through and go down the ladder a bit
further on. Get the Keystone down there and go back up, to the room with
the push block. Push the block all the way out W.
****Secret Hunt
Go back inside and climb up NW. Hop backwards onto the Timed
Pressure Pad there and run out, run to the push block and jump on, turn left
and jump to grab the ladder on the pillar, go left around one corner and back-flip into the gate opened with the Timed Pad. Pick
up Secret #1, the Bronze

****
Jump
from the block to the ladder and traverse around to back flip to the other
side. Up the ladder and get through the crawlspace to drop out the other side.
Jump over the small fire pit to a ledge with a small medipack
N. Now jump up SE and get through the spike trap, back E to the cave. Go W and
place the Keystone in the doorframe there.
Hall
with the Crates.
Shoot
the crates for Flares. In the far away SW corner is a small medipack. Two of Natla’s
Mercenaries also run around. NE, just next to the entrance, is a column with a
crack, climb up and tap Alt to get higher. Jump and grab to a ledge S for a Large
Medipack. Jump back and go the N wall ledge, jump up
to grab a rim (crack) W and jump one more time up into a crawlspace. Down at
the other side again a grab at a rim; shimmy around to the other side. Grab up
to the pillar W, crawl up and lower again at the other side in a corner, watch
out for the burner. Face W, take a sidestep right and run-jump to the wall W to
grab the rim (Video rim or savegame 1),
traverse left till you can stand again on the middle ledge. That jump to the rim can be tricky. Spot the jump
lever on the pillar E.
****Secret Hunt.
Stand NE (or SE) and do a banana jump around the pillar E, grab up
to the block and jump NE to grab the monkey-climb. Follow around to the next
ledge and shoot the crate for Secret #2, the Silver
Artefact. To get back; you could use the monkey-climb again and from
the block a curved jump around the W pillar to the ledge W, but if you can’t
manage that you can also safety drop down somewhere and get back up to where
you left off, that burner will now be turned off.
****
Use
the Timed jump lever, roll and run with a wide curve to jump to the platform at
the W wall in such a way so you do a running jump over the platform to the
ledge S. Climb ladder W, back flip/roll and grab block, run-jump to grab the
rim and shimmy around, jump up to the top of the pillar, shimmy further, drop
down. Up over the block E is a Timed jump lever.
****Secret Hunt.
Do not use the jump lever yet but crawl over the block to the
door. Face W, jump up to grab the ladder and climb to the top and
onto the monkey-climb; turn around to get into an opening in the wall ahead. Go
in for Secret #3, the Gold Artefact.
Go back to that timed jump lever; you can just jump out left to the door.
****
Another
mercenary may snipe Lara from below, kill him and then use the timed lever,
climb onto the block and crawl forward, hit Alt and forward key to roll out of
the crack and get into open door.
Another
Gate Key.
Jump
over the deep pit, jump over a lava pit. In the next room you can shoot the
wall to reveal another hidden passage N near the closed door. Get the Gate
Key in the back and you hear a gate opening up. Go out and into that gate W
into the open courtyard.
Boulder
Room, open up the Temple.
In
this room is a boulder, way up E, you’ll have to get it down into that central
trench. Shoot two Jaguars while heading W to that ramp. Go up the ramp to drop
into the NW corner and use the Timed lever there. This raises a block E down
the ramp and left around the corner to get onto a ledge above. Go to the E wall
and jump to the steel rims there to get up into a crawlspace for a small medipack. Get out and traverse to the left, climb
onto the next (top) ledge. You have three jobs to do from here, so you will be
back up here in a moment. For now, just take note of two ropes dangling amongst
the vines out in the middle of the room. Jump to the crack in the green pillar
SW, traverse around and use the jump lever. A camera view shows the central
trench but nothing’s happening yet.
Back
to the timed lever to get back all the way onto the top ledge and jump to the
rope, swing to the other side and stand with your back to the edge, one step
away from that edge. Hop backwards and hit CTRL as soon as you passed the edge
to end up one floor down (you can also hop to that
pillar NW, turn around and standjump SE with a curve to land
under the upper ledge).
Boulder
and Spikes.
Push
the block S all the way on the tile in the NE corner. The door opens S, get in
and save, a boulder and spikes are hiding something… Go to the ladder E when
the boulder rolls away and jump up, grab the ladder and back-flip
to the floor above. In the NW corner alcove is a jump lever (turn around to
spot it), get down avoiding the boulder and go to the spikes S and then sprint
through the spikes and the now open gate W. Use the lever S and get another
camera shot – still no activity. Get back to the main room and go back out to
the room with the push block, out to the terrace and drop to the ground floor.
Once
again to that timed lever to get the block up so you can climb again to the top
and use the ropes to get to the other side on the top platform. Use the
monkey-climb SE to go NE. Let Lara climb all the way to the end and she will do
the movements there herself – as she operates a lever in the ceiling. Go to the
SE of this small roof and hop into the opening, go around to the back and look
up for a jump lever. Watch the flyby of the boulder finally falling. Get down
to the ground floor. Go up the ramp W, the way to the Temple opened up.
Into
the Temple.
Jump
to the side and then to the rope. Turn to the door and left a bit to swing/jump
to the jump lever there. You’ll land on a block in the pit, step back and
jump/grab to climb into the open gate.
As
you investigate the room Lara will show an interest in a Puzzle hole up on a
ledge. Go W and around the corner SW is a jump lever E, go around to the door
SE and jump up that steel rim (E) and shimmy right. Jump one higher into a
crack and hit the down key to back-flip to a ledge. Go into the
gate you opened and use the lever in there. Back to the ground floor through
the now open gate S. Up the ramp (Lara will update her diary with a note to
remember about the puzzle hole she had just being eyeing off); go right and
left and all the way down the chain. Use the Gate Key left of the gate W.
The
Cage Puzzle.
Climb
a block SE and turn around, jump NW to the ledge over the door and to the end,
a platform between the ledges goes down. Take a curved running jump to the E
wall rims and get up higher, shimmy left into the crawlspace. Go in and left
around the corner you can climb up W to use the lever there (a statue goes
partially up). Also take note of a Block at the end of this alcove that is
currently raised. The block you stand on is lowered, turn around after the
flyby and the door in the opposite S wall is open. There is a monkey-climb over
your head, use it to get there. In the corner is a lever, save before using the
lever, then use it and immediately hop back twice to avoid the fire pit trap.
Follow
through W and in the room with the Cage, jump up NW and use the lever, watch
out for the pit. Go back to the Cage room, up S and left over the pit with the
burner, use the monkey-climb again to the opening in the N wall. Go into the
back of the passage where a block lowered NE, use the lever and see the
platform going up.
Jump
back SW to the ledge next to the Cage and now push the Cage on the platform
outside to open the gate below. Pull it back inside and drop down from the
platform. Into the open gate W. Follow through, shooting some grey Scorpions,
down some stairs and jump the pit whilst avoiding the boulder trap. A door NW
opens up for you.
The
Blue Pit.
W
is a push block; pull/push it all the way S in front of the door so you can
climb the ladder there. Once on top you hang on a monkey-climb use it to get to
the other side, use the black part too. Lower yourself down E and get into
another crawlspace, hang, let go and grab again to get into another crawlspace.
Use the lever, crawl out backwards, and tap ALT to get back into the crawlspace
above. Go left and get up into the opening in the end. Now run-jump/grab to the
monkey-climb and a nasty Mercenary will start shooting you so be sure to have
enough health.
Drop
onto that slanted roof like structure so you can slide and grab the end and
pull the jump lever there. The pit will now be filled with water. Shoot the
mercenary to get a Large Medipack. Get into an underwater
opening S wall and swim to the ladder (S) and climb it (yes, possible). Back
flip to the other side, get onto the low block. Take a running jump and grab
the monkey-climb to get to the jump lever S. Swim back to the pit and climb out
E, head through the now open doors E.

jump straight up, pull up and jump to the big pillar E and again to grab a
crack in the next pillar E. Shimmy all away around and back flip (down key) to
the next big pillar.
Timed
Platform.
Look
down SE and spot the platform, there’s a rim on the pillar S. Go stand facing
the platform and hop back onto the Timed trigger tile N and the platform SE
goes up. Jump on the trapdoor, step back if needed and turn right to take a
running jump SW, to grab the iron rim on the pillar there. Shimmy around and
back flip to the big pillar. Climb up the block and grab the monkey-climb, go
to the end and into the crawlspace S. Step on the pressure pad, looking out the
window you see it raises a block on the big NW pillar and then get back to the
crawlspace. Get out and hang, back-flip to get to the structure
and slide off. If you wish to lose less health, hang from the crawlspace, press
Alt+Down to grab the monkey-climb and return to the top
of the pillar, then make your way back down to the ground.
The
Teardrop Gem.
Go
back to the NW corner and again climb up to that big pillar, climb the block
that appeared, and up the ceiling ladder N. Jump to the other side, stand on
the corner of that raised tile and grab the upper N ladder to get to the room
above. Here you’ll find the first Teardrop Gem. Get down the ladders,
make your way to the ground floor and run along the W wall to the S. On your
right a block has been raised, climb it and jump the iron rim SE and tap ALT to
get on top of the last big pillar. Stand on the S side, face N and drop/grab
from the edge to use the jump lever there.
Another
underwater gate opens in the Flooded Chamber.
Flooded
Chamber, Draining.
Leave
S, down to the water, swim S and up almost to the surface, you’ll find the
opened gate there. Swim over the statue in the opening and up, get out and use
the lever. Back into the water and swim to the opposite side of the Flooded
Chamber, also over the statue and up again. Get out and go E, stand on the
Pressure Pad. Watch out for the nasty darts as you go back to room with the
water hole and use a lever that appeared N. Watch the flyby and jump in the
water. Swim back to the Flooded Chamber, down at the bottom and pull the blue
plugs E and W, the chamber will be drained.
Drained
Chamber, a Gate Key and the Second Teardrop Gem.
Go
to the S wall and left of that small gate is a ladder, climb to the top and
shift right and instead of climbing up, drop down. Pull out the statue and a
door in an alcove NE opens up. Take a running jump into that opening there,
follow through, at the end down a ladder and get a Gate Key and the Second
Teardrop Gem. Go back the way you came and jump up onto the tiny ledge NW
then to the statue ledge W. Jump over to the S statue ledge and from there up
the ladder. Watch out; two of Natla’s Mercenaries are coming
through the open gate W. One leaves Shotgun ammo, the other a small medipack. Leave through the open gate and at the end
of this corridor go right to use the Key to enter the large temple.
The
Stone Disc Lock.
There
is a jaguar roaming around, go W and behind that statue is a jump lever to stop
the first burner E. Then go to the N side and to the left, there is a lever to
pull NW to stop the second burner. Go E and left and right, where some burners
were you can now safely place the two Teardrop Gems. After the flyby, grab the Shotgun
nearby, which may assist you in dealing with the two Stone Warriors. Make your
way to the N wall and jump up and into the new opening. Get the Stone Disc

and back E to the passage.
****
Go
N and climb up the ladder to the Temple Courtyard and on the W wall is a
keyhole to open the gate next to it and follow the passage down.
Buddha
Courtyard.
Two
Tigers roam around, take care of them. Go back into the entrance passage SE,
climb up N near the corner and shoot the grate there, crawl in and down at the
end. Use the jump lever behind the pole N to flood the pool outside, crawl out
and go find a small medipack at the N wall. Some Revolver
ammo is hidden SW behind a tree. Now go to the pool and jump in, find and
use the underwater ceiling lever E to open a gate in the tunnel below. Then go
up for air and swim through the opening in the floor. Watch out for the moving
barrel and the strong water current, and swim around the right side, straight
and up. Climb out and the doors N opens up when you approach.
The
Royal Horseman, a Gate Key and the Yin Piece.
Enter
the Pavilion courtyard and battle the Royal guard on the horse. Shoot him with
the revolver or pistols first till he drops from the horse and switch to
pistols hopping backwards. The Guard leaves behind a Gate Key (you might have to search for it a bit). Go to the W
and use the Key left, back flip on the slope inside and grab the edge, get the Yin
Piece and you hear a gate opening up S.
Go
in and shoot the lion statue to the left for a Large Medipack.
Go further and jump NE onto the roof, in the far away corner SE is a Large Medipack, Shoot the Leaf Monkey as you go, then head
NE to a jump lever and a door. Go in and around the corner get ready for a
sprint over a spike trap and next two nasty moving blades. Just after the spike
trap there is a ring-pull lever on the wall on the left (S) to open the door to
the courtyard at the far end of the passageway. Go and avoid the blades and
follow through and jump to the roof of the pavilion. Lower yourself to the
ground floor, go out S and in the water to swim back to the pool. There is a
very, very strong current, get out of the pool E or by using the ladder W.
Back
to the Temple Courtyard.
Go
SE and exit there, back up the steps to the Temple Courtyard. Go up the stairs
N and combine the Yin with the Yang and use the Yin Yang Symbol to the right of
the door. Enter and go N and lower yourself down NW into the room below, down
the stairs E or W and place the Prayer Wheel in the N side of the room. A stone
lowers to your right, go towards the circular knives that will come closer and
side flip through them. To the right, SW is a small medipack,
to the E is a wheel switch. Go back out, hop through the circular knives and
into the opening N.
Push
Puzzle, Flood the Room.
On
the ground floor E and W are pushable blocks. Push them on the
marked tiles N, they both open a door in the N wall, use the wheel switches
inside. Watch the flyby, an ancient machine comes to life and the room will be
transformed to a series of flowing water cascades. Go to the W where that block
went up to climb into the opening there, follow through and jump the pillars
with the emitters to the E side. In the corners you are quite safe. Avoid the
moving blades. The door opens up, go down to the next room. Up left and right
are 2 boulders, push them down. Notice the still closed Trophy room S when you
go get a small medipack next to where the S
side boulder ends up. Pushing the boulders lowered a wall E, so go in and some
steps will rise. Go up but wait, SAVE and have a look around before climbing
down into the Shiva Room. (As security, do not erase over this save until you
have defeated the Shiva's and picked up both Yin Yang
puzzle parts as there is a slim chance that the Shiva carrying one part might accidentally
drop it in a blade. In this case you would need to reload before the Shiva’s
death).
The
Shiva Room.
Jump
N to the green looking floor (the grated floor is deadly), get the Shotgun
ammo there, when you jump to the E, the two Golden Shiva’s will awake,
shoot them whilst avoiding the deadly rotating blades, one of them will drop a Yin
Yang Piece. I went to the E side of the room and backed up to the wall.
Sometimes the Shiva got stuck in the wall, making it easier to deal with (author note: You will also find that the Shiva's
have different AI and thus require slightly different strategies to defeat
them. One enemy tends to have an offensive attack whereas the other is
defensive). Get the Large Medipack in
the middle of the room, you cannot get the Yin and Yang piece yet as the floor
is deadly (depending on where they went down).
The
block with the Gold Statue at the N wall has a jump lever you cannot reach yet,
so go get more Shotgun ammo in the SE corner. Then turn around N and
spot another jump lever near that white lattice cage. A running jump (no CtrL) and use this lever first, then go N to the other
lever, jump up to grab the edge of the block and shimmy around, now pull the
lever, the floor is safe now and the blades have stopped. Get the two pieces
for the Yin Yang Symbol, one on the grated floor NE and one where the Shiva dropped,
Combine the pieces and use it in the central alcove E.
Easy way… Go pull the levers first then battle the Shiva’s
Place
the second Scion Piece, a block comes up so you can leave W.
****Secret Hunt
When you are back in the boulder room go to the gate S and stand
jump from the small ramp to the NE, grab the ledge to get Secret #3, the Gold
Artefact. Drop down and the gate S is now open, go get all the goodies and
finally the Sri Lanka Trophy. Go out to the boulder room.
****
When
you leave W you’ll get transported to the next level.

3 secrets
The
Machete.
Receive
a diary Update with your location and level objectives. Note that Lara is carrying
Scion Piece 3 in her inventory. Push the block on the right into the alcove S
and use the lever behind it. A ceiling grate NE opens, climb up and first jump
SE to crawl through for a Large Medipack.
Jump back and jump over the knife. Shoot two Forest Tribesmen (one way up N),
but stay clear of that plate in the middle of the room. Face N and then run
onto the Bounce pad in the middle (keep Alt +
forward key pressed), then release Alt and hit Ctrl to grab the ledge and get
the Machete (Crowbar).
A
Magnetic Winch.
Face
S and jump with Ctrl to the lower alcove and from there into the alcove NW. Use
your Machete here to cut the vines, and then operate the lever. The door on top
opens, so back to the floor and use the Bounce pad
again and jump to the wooden platforms in front of the doors S to enter. Shoot
the two Mandrills, go up and near a tree NE shoot two boxes for a Large Medipack and a Magnetic Winch.
The
High Tension Rope.
Stand
facing N and run onto the Bounce pad and end up on a wooden
platform. Jump up NW and a (pixel perfect) jump/grab E and then to the S and
climb up E, on the N side of this ledge is a small medipack.
Go E into the passage, left at the end is a TIMED lever. This lever raises a
block a bit back on the left. Sprint to the block and jump on top and jump
immediately up to grab the monkey-climb and shift to the wall to use the jump
lever there, a door opens NE of the timed lever. Go N and into the opening, hop
down and go left around the corner for some Revolver ammo. Go to the N
wall and shoot the crate, pick up the High Tension Rope. Combine it with
the Winch and you have the Loaded Magnetic Winch.
Use
the Winch, the Temple Door Key and a Torch.
Go
to the E side of the room and to the crate standing at the E wall, face it S
and use the Winch to pull a statue NE out of the wall. Go in behind it and go
behind the pedestal, use the Machete on the vines and go into the room and just
inside you can open the hatch in the ceiling (face S). Go up to get the Temple
Door Key from the pedestal SE, once down go W and up to get Shotgun ammo
and now go get the Torch from the pedestal. Go S and right, ignite the
Torch on the wall torch halfway down this passage. Go E again and hop down to
use the torch on the wall torches S, on the entrance ledge. A block NW lowers
so you can use the key there. As you exit this area dispose of your torch in
the shallow water pit in the alcove opposite the exit door. (author note: It is important that you do this as you may
otherwise encounter a flame bug caused by the torch).
Spiked
Pickup, another Temple Door Key.
Watch
out for darts go left into a crawlspace for a small medipack
and then jump over the next dart trap, follow through to a kind of hallway, go
up the steps to the E wall and in the middle is a push block. Push it 4 times
and then under the lever NE. Go in; for now you cannot get the pickups at the
top of the stairs! Go to the dark block SW, pull/push it under the cross sign
on the ceiling. Go to the SE corner into a crawlspace, grab the Temple Door
Key from the pedestal and get out. Go out S, left to the push block under
the lever and slide it back S where it came from as a new lever is exposed
around the corner to the right. The Spike in the previous room will be
de-activated. Go back and now you can get the other goodies, like a Large Medipack and more Uzi ammo. Go out S, through
the passage at the push block and to the stairs N. On the left before the
stairs is the keyhole. Go up the stairs and once outside, shoot a crate NE for Revolver
ammo and a Large Medipack.
Pool
with the Bridge, shoot the Grates.
Go
to the water along the right hand ledge, look down SW and spot the 2 wooden
grates, shoot them. Now go to the S side of the pool and jump up left (SE) and
up again and find Flares there, jump down once, go S and up left is some
Revolver ammo. Go to the bridge W and drop down the W side to a ledge
below, go to the utmost NW point of that ledge and look to the NW, shoot that
wooden grate underwater NW in the pool, turn NE and shoot another one under the
platform NE to the left of the steps in the water.
The
Two Chains.
Dive
into the pool, swim into one of the openings S, pick up the small medipack in that first room, then swim E, into a
small tunnel E. Go low under the first Blade and high over the next. In the
next room, left around the corner is a chain #1, pull it and swim back to the
pool. Now swim NW, in to the back to pull chain #2 in the far corner to open an
underwater gate for the secret area. Swim out, climb out at the stairs E and
shoot the Forest Tribesman.

Timed
Bridge Run.
Go
up onto the N side ledge. Look W and spot a
pole that appeared on the right (operated by the first pulley chain), hop to it
and swing to the other side (release Ctrl and curve left), to land next to the
pillar. Go NW, turn around and use the TIMED jump lever on that pillar (face E).
The bridge will close so side flip right, get back to the pole, swing over with
a right hand curve and get to the S side. Jump onto the ledge, onto the block
and onto the ledge at bridge level. Quickly sprint over the bridge (Video
bridge). Go into the passage ahead and on the left you can shoot the
ball in that crawlspace. This lowers a wall in that crawlspace, but also
further down in this passage. Proceed into this passage and shoot the crate NW
for a Shotgun and Shotgun ammo. Go W and shoot those wooden
fences on the right, grab the small medipack
and the Revolver ammo. Go back E in the passage and jump on the
windowsill S (opposite where you got the shotgun) and ease your way through the
window bars there (in the middle). On the N wall of that room is a jump lever.
The door behind you opens.
Traps
and a Push Block.
Go
out to the terrace and W into the opened door, go N to the traps and stand
facing NW, take a running jump onto the W ledge there over the W side knife.
Pull the block (N) out once, climb down E, line up so you can side jump over
the spike traps (screenshot spikes)
and then jump behind the block and push the block under that cross on the
ceiling. This lowers the block S near the door. Jump down E again and then SE (or run-jump SE from the ledge and over
the knife) and go to the lever in the corner near the door. Go outside
and right and use the jump lever beyond where the wooden gate opened S to get
out a pole up S near the start of the bridge. Go back up to the broken bridge
and use the pole W and curve hard left to grab a slanted block so you can
shimmy to a ledge (or get there in one go ;-)
Video polejump).
Go in, use the lever N, go further and kill the Forest Tribesman.
The
Wooden Cog.
Jump
on a block NW, SAVE and up the slope, use the monkey-climb to get into a
crawlspace to the E, there’s a knife trap however, you’ll have to stop it in an
open position to pass it. Use the down key while going forward and Lara will
turn around. You have to go back and fro on the monkey-climb to get that knife
in the “open” position. Get into the crawlspace E and get the Wooden Cog.
Get out of the crawlspace and go to the SE corner.
The
Wooden Hub.
Climb
up the blocks, get the Flares, crawl through to the end and crawl out
backwards, hang left and jump up to get to the monkey-climb (Ctrl + ALT), go
around the corner into a crawlspace left. Get the Wooden Hub and get
down. Go SE and Combine the Wooden Cog with the Wooden Hub and use the Wooden
Cog Switch on that receptacle.
****Secret Hunt
Immediately roll jump onto the raising platform and wait until
you can grab up W into the opening in the ceiling, get Secret
#2, the Bronze Artefact and get back out to the
ground floor.
****
Use
the ladder N to climb into the pit, shimmy left around and back flip to get the
goodies on that ledge, 2x Uzi ammo and a small medipack.
Back to the ladder and go one floor down. Stand on that ledge that is
protruding out, face ESE and just run off the corner with Ctrl to land into
that opening down E, use the lever. Back and take a running jump to the ladder;
go up and the door E is open. Go in, follow through and come to a room with
spikes.
Spike
Room.
On
the E wall are ladders, jump to the one E and traverse all the way to the
right, avoiding the rotating walls with spikes. At the end get down and use the
Timed jump lever up W. Turn a bit right as you land, back-flip
onto the raised block and turn a bit more to the right to do a jump and grab N
to the next block, use the lever there. You can go back via the ladders but if
you are quick enough, hop back turning left and run-jump back to the S side.
Use the jump lever again to get up to the open door S.
Mountain
Gorillas.
There
are two Mountain Gorillas and a Tribesman way up W, so get to it. SW is a
wooden crate with Bazooka ammo underneath. Also SW, on the ledge and
around to the right is a lever, this opens a door E. Save, as you have arrived
at the jump room.
The
Fire Gauntlet Room, the Temple Door Key.
As
you enter the area a flyby gives you an indication of the path that lies ahead.
Jump onto the slide E and jump to grab the ladder, shimmy left around the
corner back flip, jump forward and slide all the way down and jump on the next
slide. Then jump right onto the slanted block, grab the edge. This is a nice
place to save again. Pull up, back-flip/roll and Lara will bump
her head, landing on the slope below, jump to grab the ladder climb up and
shimmy right, over the flames. On the last ladder climb all the way up to grab
the monkey-climb. Go almost to the other end. Turn right, let go, slide and
jump to a ladder. Go left around the corner and up to the top, back flip onto a
block. You are safe here, look SE and spot the Secret up there. First jump to grab
that upper platform N to get the Large Medipack.
Run down onto the block again and jump to the walkway SW. Cut the vines with
the machete and go in. In that room you can get the Temple Door Key from
the pedestal.
****Secret Hunt
Save in front of the timed lever after you used it once and
watched the flyby. Use the timed lever to raise a platform in front of the
secret. A tight timed run - turning right out of the room around corner onto
wooden walkway then run left and jump to grab the intermediate block, then
run-jump to upper platform (where the Medipack
was). Run and curve right do run-jump to platform that was raised by the lever
and then onto Secret's platform. Get Secret #3,
the Gold Artefact (Video secret). Return with a running jump to
intermediate block NW, then back to wooden walkway.
****
Go
back on the wooden walkway. You’ll have to go back the hard way because the
door will not be open if you don’t. Grab up to the monkey-climb, go along the
right hand wall and stop where that wall ends (screenshot trigger)
the trigger for that exit door is now right below you on the slanted block
where the knife is moving. Go as far right as Lara will go (Shift+right
arrow) and let go when that swinging hammer is close to you, once touching the
silvery trigger tile, jump with a right curve and then jump with a left curve
and jump to grab the wooden walkway and you can go back to the outside yard.
Use
the Key SW and inside on the wall E you can use the machete on that small box
on the floor. This opens a door outside W. Shoot the crates for Bazooka ammo
and the Bazooka. Go into the open gate S (if
you found all three secrets) and pick up all the Goodies and the Congo
Trophy. Step back outside and into the open door on the ledge W.

Battle
Kong.
As
soon as you go in, a block will rise in the left corner, follow the passage and
save at the lever in the next room. Using this lever opens the door in the
passage but it is Timed. Once outside you’ll meet Kong and some tribesmen. Kong
will kill the Tribesmen so let him do his job and then kill him. Best is to let
him get close and shoot him from the front while you use a medipack
or two. It is a hard fight though, however he can be killed with pistols.
Alternatively, if this proves to be too hard, you may wish to make use of your
newly acquired bazooka. When he is dead the door N opens to Kong’s sleeping
pen. There are 3 Bazooka grenades lying around the main arena. In the
opened room in the back is a Large Medipack.
The
Carved Stone Piece.
Go
back again, but just before you go out of this room, there is a jump lever on
the right (W). Then kill a tribesman in the yard and the door S is open, up the
ramp and straight in an opening where the block now lowered. Jump down and at
the end go left and use the Machete on that Carved Stone Piece.
The
High Tension Rope, Magnetic Winch and a Stone Base Plate.
Turn
around and jump down, shoot the crates in this room to get the High Tension
Rope and the Magnetic Winch. Go W and follow through and go all the
way to the last room. Stand with your back to the pillar in the middle, face S
and look up, grab the ladder there and back flip onto the pillar. Get the Stone
Base Plate. Combine it with the Carved Stone Piece to create the Stone
Mechanism.
Disable
the Spikes, the Temple Door Key.
Go
back to the previous room and place this Stone Mechanism on the small hub on
that block in the middle (face N). The wall W opens, push that pushable on every silver tile (4) on the floor to disable
the rows of spikes.
Go
to the back of that box (face E) and use the Loaded Magnetic Winch.
Behind that large round object you pulled away from the wall is the Temple
Door Key. Leave and go N to the room with the high block and use the Key
there N. Get in, go left and shoot the tribesman, pick up a small medipack, Flares and Revolver ammo.
A
Clue.
Light
a Flare and read the wall inscription W.
2 balls go kaboom,
2 trees are good,
4 balls go kaboom,
Big kaboom.
Go
E and left to a room with a closed door, keep going N into the next room and
dive in the water. Swim N and find a ladder all the way in the back near the 4
skulls. Climb up, back flip onto the ledge behind you. Go S and jump over and
get that small medipack. On the W wall behind
the skulls you can find Revolver ammo.
Pushables Puzzle.
In
the SE corner is a TIMED trigger tile, this lowers a block on the far N ledge.
But first we’re going to prepare the way. If you look left a bit you can see
the push block on that central island. Push it E and then N 3 times. Your goal
is to get it to the E side and then on that silver tile N. Stay on the island
side and go to the N and then W on the corner is a jump lever, this lowers a
block in the water W, swim in and pull the chain. Swim out and back to the
ladder and back flip to the island. Go E and now you can push that pushable over the water and against the block N. Run to
the trigger tile and run back to quickly push the block to that silver tile.
The
Amber Jewel.
A
wall in the central structure lowers, go in to the NW corner hang and pull up
and back flip, grab the monkey-climb from the lower side of that pillar, go to
the other side, open the ceiling hatch SE and climb up from facing N. Crawl W
through the middle of the room, roll through the Spiked beams, grab the Amber
Jewel and make your way back down. Swim back under the gate, get out and go
S and place the Jewel next to the door W. In the passage, watch out for spikes
and jump up N between the spikes and push the button. Jump out towards the open
door to avoid the next set of spikes.
2
balls go kaboom.
There
is a ball SW and up, shoot it and a ball NW and down under the building, shoot
that as well. Four blocks in the passage behind you will go down.
2
trees are good.
Be
careful, you can ONLY push two of the buttons, the ones with a tree sign under
the button (NW and SE); use the side alcoves to jump over the spikes. A bridge
will be formed.
4
balls go kaboom.
Now
you can run to the suspended Temple. Go to the right (N) and right near the
bridge look down. There is a jump lever there, use it. You’ll be taken back up
on a moving platform, now go SW and now you can get onto on that wooden
platform high up in the SW corner, hang facing W and use ALT to get to the
monkey-climb and swing right around the corners to use the jump lever to
release four Cover Plates. Go to the SE edge of the floor and spot a new ball
(1), down below on that small island SE. From this same corner, look NE just
under the bridge and the building you came from, is the next ball (2).Go to the
N side, look E under the bridge again for the next ball (3). For the last one
(4) climb on the N side railing of the bridge and look NNW and the last ball
hangs way up on that tower.
After
shooting it watch the impressive flyby and climb up that structure to place the
last Scion on the pedestal facing S. Wait and the door W will open. Get the note
and read it:
If you are reading this note, then your quest is complete.

sure to top up your health, go down the ladder (next part is a bit hard as the
camera is fixed) and climb down till you see Lara hanging. Save and drop, jump
a spike pit, jump over the knife, again Lara drops down, slide and back flip
over a boulder pit, another two back flips over a couple of spike pits, then
grab where Lara goes out of sight (don’t climb down
but just hold Ctrl). Save and then drop onto another slide, when you are
about one square before the spike pit another jump so you will land on the
slide after that spike pit, almost immediately jump from the exact middle of
that slide and grab up to the monkey-climb (Video escape).
Immediately start to go forward before the boulder hits you. Follow the
monkey-climb and you’ve made your escape.
Sit back and relax as the End credits roll.
