Getting Useful Items

Don’t pick up the nearby green vase on the pedestal yet (if you do it, the level changes) but turn around, run up the stairs, go left/left to the end of the corridor and shoot the vase so you can press the button to lower the chandeliers. Take a running jump over the balustrade onto the first chandelier to hear the SECRET #1 sound: pick up 2 X shotgun shells, take a running jump to land onto the next chandelier, pick up a large medipack, jump to the nearby balcony, go right to get 3 X flares and go back down to pick up that green vase from the pedestal and jump to...

JUNGLE FEVER

Lake Area

Explore the lake to find the first Medicinal Plant (you can use this plants to restore the health when a native shoots you poison darts), get out of the water and go to the campfire; left of the tent there are a small medipack and shotgun shells. Now approach to the guy and talk with him; after the conversation, turn right, jump and climb the grassy ledge and take a running jump to the NW bank; from here take a running jump N-NW to grab the crack in the opposite side of the river, shimmy left, pull up and pull the switch to open a door somewhere. Go back to the grassy ledge you came from to find the open door; avoid the rolling boulder and go left to the place where it was to get flares, and if you climb higher (approach to the diagonal edge above you and jump repeatedly) you can find the SECRET #2: uzi ammo and the Revolver. Back to the corridor with the open door, take the other passage to get the second Medicinal Plant; a bit further you can find a dead end with what it seems to be a grate or a closed door, but it’s really a movable block, pull it out and aside to get flares. Retrace your steps and drop through the hole where the boulder fell to see that it broke the floor exposing the Jungle Relic Gear; use it in the nearby underwater receptacle to open a trapdoor in the area with the movable block, go back there, climb, shoot the leopard and advance to find yourself on a high ledge overlooking the lake (*).

Take a running jump to the W rock, climb up the ladder, shimmy right and pull up; take a running jump SE to the ledge with the monkey, another running jump to grab the S ledge with the roots (the one in the right side) and go around counterclockwise to get uzi clips. Go back a bit and look up to locate a ladder, climb up and jump back to land on a higher ledge with a serpent and the SECRET #3: pick up the revolver ammo. Now take a standing jump N onto the ledge with the reeds and another standing jump NE to the ledge with the third Medicinal Plant. To get extra pickups jump back to the previous ledge and take a standing jump to the rock with the large medipack and shotgun shells. From here you can jump into the lake below, get out of the water and give the medicinal herbs to Jon and he will give you a useless shotgun; also he says that you can repair it with a toolbox you can find near another waterfall.

Repairing the Shotgun – The Ancient Cog Key

Now go back to the cave with the movable block and up to the ledges overlooking the main area (*); this time take a running jump to the W rock an another one to the S rocks with the monkey, go through the opening, draw a weapon, take a running jump onto the S rocks and shoot the native (beware of the poisonous darts); take a running jump to grab the ledge where he was, pick up his small medipack, take a diagonal standing jump with grab SW, to the niche with the large medipack and go back to the rocks from where you shot the native. Now go W, climb the gray rock and use the jumpswitch to open the next door, slide, jump, grab the horizontal pole, swing, walk over the breakable tiles, slide and from the next breakable tile jump to your left onto the rock with the flares. Continue using the next breakable tiles, dropping E and left to an opening with uzi clips; shoot the rocks to clear the way, climb up the vines, jump and shoot the next rocks, continue climbing (triangular opening in the ceiling) to finally get the Ancient Cog Key. The nearby door opens, so drop down to the very bottom avoiding the rolling boulder and explore this small area to find shotgun shells in a niche and a medicinal plant behind the switch. Pull it to open the next door, shoot the leopard and exit; just in front of the exit you can pick up the Jon’s lost Toolbox he talked about, combine it with the useless shotgun to form the Shotgun and choose “Use” to load the gun. In the E side of the lake there’s a medicinal plant, and if you go to the other side of the canyon, shoot a serpent to find a small medipack behind the reeds. Anyway grab the crack in the SE corner of the lake and jump up, pull up and take a running jump to the N ledge with the grate; if you want you can get uzi clips inside the crack, but the important thing is to take a running jump W and use the key to open the door; advance and watch the flyby.

First Jungle Relic Gear

Jump over the fence and drop down into the lake; take the N passage and when you see a ramp to your left go up but beware of the rolling boulder, at the top of the ramp pick up the first Jungle Relic Gear (1 of 3). Go back down the ramp and always left until you find the N waterfall, jump into the water, swim under it and continue swimming always left through the underwater passage to find an underwater lever, pull it to open the nearby ceiling trapdoor and get out of the water.

First Shiva’s Forgotten Relic

Locate one of those grated movable blocks and push it once to reveal some Torches, pick up one of them, light it in the nearby campfire, go up S and burn the rope to release a boulder and destroy the statue revealing a passage. Go down, pull the movable block to place it in its original position and go through the passage blocked by the statue, walk over the spiked tile, pick up the shotgun shells and push the block outside; go around, grab the block and jump to grab the high ledge, pull up, shoot the grate in the NW corner and use the crack to get there. Continue through the next passage, shoot the small spiders, pick up the small medipack on the skeleton and climb the spiked ledge to pick up uzi clips and the first Shiva’s Forgotten Relic (1 of 2); go back down, shoot the small spiders, cross under the hanging trap and exit S; pull the switch to open the door and you’re back in the lake area.

The Lost Mechanism Cog Wheel

Turn left and cross to the E side of the lake bank to an area with serpents, shoot them, pick up the large medipack in the NE corner and pull the floor lever to raise a trapdoor at the other side of the lake; this also alert two giant mosquitoes. Cross the lake to the W side and from the corner near the last door you opened jump onto the raised trapdoor, from here take a running jump to grab the edge of the E sloped ledge, shimmy left and around the corner, pull up and pick up the Lost Mechanism Cog Wheel.

Second Jungle Relic Gear

Now jump into the water and go S to the central part of this huge area, to the island where you must place the gears later (beware of the piranhas in this part of the lake) and continue S, shoot a serpent and behind the last waterfall deal with a big spider and their sons. Climb the rocks (note that you can grab diagonal edges), jump to grab the N vines, climb up, shimmy right around the corner, jump back onto a flat rock and from here you can jump N over the fence to get a medicinal plant if you want; anyway, from the rock with the fence take a final standing jump to grab the edge of the high rock and get the second Jungle Relic Gear (2 of 3).

Second Shiva’s Forgotten Relic

From here take a running jump W hitting the ceiling to land onto a ledge with flares, drop down onto the ledge below, turn right, take a running jump to the rock with the palm tree and climb the short ladder so you can shoot the native in conditions (I used a medicinal plant). If you want you can take a detour to get some extra pickups: jump back down to the rock with the palm tree and take a running jump S-SE to a ledge with uzi clips and shotgun shells; now go S, climb from the right side and take a running jump to land onto the ledge where you got the flares, from here take a running jump NE to the ledge with the medicinal plant, jump back to the previous ledge and go back to the ledge with the dead native via the rock with the palm tree as you did before.

Go around over the breakable tiles and through the next opening, quickly (spiked trap) take a running jump over the spikes and take refuge in the left side to avoid the rolling boulder; advance from the right side, pull the switch to open one of the doors and go left to get shotgun shells (beware of another trap). Exit, go left to pull a jumpswitch, shoot a giant mosquito, jump over the fence in a NW direction to the area with the raised block, climb it, go through the triangular opening, shoot two giant mosquitoes, take a running jump over the spiked pit and go a bit N to get a medicinal plant. From the gray tile next to the spiked pit jump E-SE and cross the bridge to the very end to get the second Shiva’s Forgotten Relic (2 of 2). Roll and shoot another native coming from the bridge. Make your way to drop down to the lake.

Extra Pickups and Secrets

Optional to get extra pickups: in the area with the plinth shoot the small vases to get uzi clips, turn left and jump to the ledge with the palm trees to get more uzi clips and a medicinal plant; jump to grab the edge of the rock above and go to the S side to find a medicinal plant, further on, there is a cave with the SECRET #4: shoot the small spiders and pick up a medicinal plant, shotgun shells and uzi clips. Now go back to the N end of the waterfall and jump to the place where you climbed moments ago, explore this grassy area to find 2 X uzi clips; approach to the right side of the fence (NW) and take a long running jump to land onto the ledge with the big tree below near the waterfall, advance W, take a running jump to the next fenced ledge and finally climb up W to get the SECRET #5: shoot the leopard and the serpent first and explore this area to find the Uzis, 3 X uzi clips and a large medipack. Now go back down the way you came to the ledge with the big tree and drop down into the lake in the waterfall area.

Third Jungle Relic Gear

Advance S to the area with the rainbow and locate the block with the receptacle to use the lost mechanism cog wheel (just opposite the rainbow), this will open a trapdoor in the center of the lake (just to your right); swim there and follow the underwater passage picking up 3 X uzi clips and a small medipack until you find a room where you can surface. Explore this part of the jungle to find a small medipack, flares and the third Jungle Relic Gear (3 of 3). Exit W (shoot the serpent near the exit), go right and left to cross the wooden bridge, jump right to the island with the receptacles for the gears and place them to activate the raft and jump onto it to cross to the E side of the lake, go right to get flares between the bushes and use the Shiva’s relics in the receptacles with the candles to lower the wooden bars.

The Forgotten Key of the Sunlight Temple & The Swamp Key

In the next area beware of the falling rocks and shoot the debris to clear the way, shoot a leopard, advance, shoot the giant mosquitoes, cross the swamp and go left (N) towards the waterfall. Drop into the river and pick up the shotgun shells in the left side, now go E and open the floor underwater trapdoor (facing W) to get the Forgotten Key of the Sunlight Temple, quickly get out of the water and shoot the appearing crocs. If you go to the very E end of the river you’ll find a medicinal plant, and if you go S to the temple ruins you’ll find a native called Yamandú; talk with him and he will give you the Swamp Key and he will ask you to find 4 Buddha statues.

The Roaring Guardian Key

Go to the N bank of the river, shoot the serpent and continue W to the very end; climb up to the top of the waterfall, grab the N crack, jump up, shimmy right and pull up onto the very top of the waterfall; from here take a standing jump to land onto the SW ledge, continue through the W passage and use the forgotten key to open the next door. Slide, jump over the trap and shoot all the natives; shoot the vases next to the W wall to get uzi clips, explore the pit to get a small medipack, medicinal plants and several Torches. Pick up a torch, go up and light it in the E cauldron; now go W, throw the torch in a place where you can find it later and step onto the trigger tile in the right side (facing E) to raise a block so you can jump and reach the top of the high pillar in the SE corner with the dead native; turn left and take a running jump to grab the green vines in the N wall, shimmy right and around the corner, jump back and pick up the Roaring Guardian Key from the plinth.

The Lost Jungle Stone Tablet

Drop down to the floor and use this key in the keyhole located in the S wall, next to the entrance; go up and push the pedestal down and place it onto the N trigger tile to raise a block next to the N wall; now pick up the Torch, step onto the other trigger tile, run and jump onto the small raised block and to the top of the pillar with the dead native, take a running jump NW onto the raised block, a standing jump W and a final jump to the ledge where you can light the big cauldrons to lower a block in the E side of this room. Jump SE onto the ledge with the movable piece, push it N out of this ledge and drop down onto the floor below; move this piece onto the remaining trigger tile to raise the small block and you can use it to reach again the top of the pillar with the dead native and the high E opening with the lowered block. Enter the new room, shoot the leopard and shoot the debris in the NW corner to get flares; pick up the Lost Jungle Stone Tablet from the pedestal and exit S.

[Note:] If you want to get a secret later, before exiting, go back to the place where you threw the torch (or pick up another one in the pit and light it), pick it up, jump from block to block to bring it up to this room where you got the stone tablet, exit S with torch in hand and leave it in a place where you can find it later (In front of the Yamandú, for example). [End note]

To the Top of the Temple

Go back to the swamp area and look for a niche in the W side where you can use the swamp key to lower several blocks in the high ledges of this area, exit the niche and walk a bit S to find a crack you can use to jump and reach those high ledges; jump W and shoot the native on the higher branch, now jump to the N ledge, grab the crack and shimmy right and around the corner to the very end, go through the triangular crawlspace and climb the opening to your right; finally grab the monkeyswing and advance to reach the top of the temple (**).

The First Lost Buddha

Pull the floor lever to open a trapdoor as a shortcut so you don’t need to take the previous route again; to get the next secret, from the tile in the E side of the open trapdoor take a running jump E with a left curve and continue jumping counterclockwise to reach the N side of the temple roofs, locate the ladder and climb down to the crawlspace to get the SECRET #6: shotgun shells and a small medipack; drop down into the river below and use the shortcut to get back to the place with the floor lever. Now climb the tree branch and go W around the big tree, shoot the leopard and climb higher to an upper branch to find uzi clips. Back down in the area where the leopard was, drop down through the hole with the ladder, take a running jump to the tree with the dead native, go right, shoot another native and pull the switch to raise a block somewhere. Climb the nearby block if you want to get extra uzi clips, but from the place with the switch go SE and from the edge with the missing fence drop down twice, take a running jump to the top of the S ledge, shoot the debris in the opening to your right, jump there, shoot the vases to get uzi clips and pull the switch to open the trapdoor under your feet. Slide, run over the breakable tiles, slide again, quickly turn left, run and jump over the spiked pit, go right, slide, take a running jump to grab the ladder, climb up, jump back with twist onto the next breakable tiles and finally take a curved running jump to the safe ledge in the corner to your right. In the next room pick up the small medipack, sprint through the opening (falling debris), shoot the vases to get shotgun shells and beware of the spiked trap when you pick up the first Lost Buddha of Yamandú (1 of 4). To get out of here grab the crack next to the trap, jump back with twist to grab the edge of the high N opening and pull the switch to open the exit door.

The Second Lost Buddha

Back in the main temple area, explore the lake area to your left to find uzi clips and flares; in a water hole in the W side of the temple you can find more uzi clips too. Anyway go back to the top of the temple (**) using the shortcut (very difficult to grab that ladder in my game, if you got problems you can always take the longer route via the crack in the swamp), climb the tree branch again and from here take a tricky curved running jump to grab the ladder in the SE tree; climb up, shimmy around the corner, pick up the uzi clips and take a long running jump to land onto the lower E branch; climb the E watery ledge, drop into the hole in the corner to get a large medipack, get out and approach to the N edge. Shoot the native from here if you can, jump onto the slope to your left, slide and jump with a right curve to land onto the lower part of the ledge where the native was; climb and advance W, take a running jump to grab the next rock, another running jump (no grab) to the next one, shoot a giant mosquito, jump up to grab the edge of the upper ledge, take a running jump to the watery slope and immediately jump to grab the ledge with the second Lost Buddha of Yamandú (3 of 4). Shoot another giant mosquito, use the zip-line to go to the ledge with the native and make your way to safely drop to ground floor.

The Third Lost Buddha & The Mysterious Ball

Go back up to the top of the temple (**) using the shortcut one more time, climb the tree branch again and from here take a tricky curved running jump to grab the ladder in the SE tree; climb up, shimmy around the corner and take a long running jump to land onto the lower E branch as you did before; this time go right, jump to the next ledge and to the niche with the medicinal herbs if you want, jump back onto the rocky ledge and take a curved running jump SW around the structure with the dome, shoot the vases to get uzi clips, go W, climb the watery ledge with the medicinal herbs and to get the next secret face W and jump up to grab the branch above, take a standing jump to grab the higher branch to your right and take a final running jump to grab the W branch with the skeleton and the SECRET #7: another revolver, uzi clips and medicinal herbs; use the zip-line to go back to the watery ledge. Now drop down from the S side onto a sort of trapdoor, climb the ledge to your right, take a running jump E to grab the next trapdoor, another curved running jump around the corner of the building to land onto a last trapdoor and finally jump inside the building to get the third Lost Buddha of Yamandú (3 of 4). Pull the switch to lower nearby blocks at your back, exit N, shoot the vases in the corner to get flares and enter the N building to find a Mysterious Ball. Drop down and pull the jumpswitch in the W wall to lower a block creating a shortcut for when you need to come back here later (***).

Detour for a secret: if you brought a torch from the room where you got the Lost Jungle Stone Tablet time ago (read previous paragraphs of this walkthrough), go to the place where you left it, retrieve it and go back to this room, light the torch in the N wall to open the floor trapdoor in the center of the room and drop down to get the SECRET #8: the Uzis and 2 X uzi clips.

The Fourth Lost Buddha

Now go to the NW side of the temple (next to the river) and look for a pedestal where you can place the mysterious ball, a block raises, climb it and go through the hole in the ceiling to get the fourth Lost Buddha of Yamandú (4 of 4) plus uzi clips.

Talking with Yamandú

Give the statues to the native and he will give you the Stone Tablet from Yamandú, combine it with the lost jungle stone tablet to form the Combined Jungle Stone Tablet, go to the bottom of the building where you got the mysterious ball (***) and locate the receptacle to use this artifact (SE corner) and lower the nearby block and get access to the next part of the jungle.

The Crowbar

Take a running jump to the niche in the corner to get uzi clips, now slide down to the campfire, shoot the leopards, shoot the vases to get more uzi clips and take a running jump to land onto the far E slope, slide and in the ledge with the skeleton light a flare and pick up the Old Leg Bone (crowbar), quickly (rolling boulder) drop even lower and jump back to find the SECRET #9: shotgun shells, a large medipack and 2 X uzi clips. Climb back up to the campfire and go to the SE corner, draw pistols, jump and shoot the debris blocking the opening, climb and go right to find a crowbar door. Open it and in the next room shoot a giant spider, pick up shotgun shells and pull the switch to raise a trapdoor outside (and release a native).

Campfire Area

Go back down to the campfire, shoot the native and go through the opening in the NW corner, climb the rocks, pull the jumpswitch to lower the block, shoot a small spider and you are now back at the top of this area; jump to the ledge in the SW corner, take a running jump to the E one with the dead native and a last jump to the trapdoor you raised moments ago; now continue jumping all around counterclockwise onto the flatter ledges until you reach the big opening in the N wall. Advance dodging several rolling boulders and at the end of the path climb the flatter rock near the corner and facing S take a sidejump left onto the slope and jump to grab the high edge, pull up, shoot a giant mosquito, shoot the vases to get uzi ammo and in the swamp area pull the switch in the SE corner to lower wooden bars at your back.

The Bowl of Eternal Smoke

Shoot another giant mosquito and enter the room with the dart emitter; shoot the native and pull the jumpswitch high up in the W wall to lower a block in the NW corner, go there, pull the crowbar switch to lower the bars in the SW corner and exit to the swamp area; re-use the switch in the SE corner, go back to the previous room the way you came and note that more bars have lowered in the N and E walls; go through the opening in the NE corner (beware of the falling rocks) and push the movable block once, go back outside, grab the edge of the block and jump up to reach the upper ledge with the Bowl of Eternal Smoke.

The Sacrificial Bowl of Silence

Drop down and now visit the E room, being careful with the spike traps, pick up the flares, the large medipack and pull one of the skeletons to get the Key of the Fallen; go back to the previous room and locate the keyhole in the W wall, pull the switch to raise a pedestal in the room with the spike traps and go back there to get the Sacrificial Bowl of Silence; now place both artifacts in its receptacles (structures with the Buddha statues) to lower blocks in the pentagonal opening high up in the S wall, use the crack to climb there, shoot a giant mosquito, use the tight rope to cross to the S side of the pit, continue clockwise, take a running jump to grab the E lonely pillar and another running jump to the platform where the native awaits.

Surprising Ending

Talk with him and if you didn’t kill any monkey, the native will give you the SECRET #10: the Pendant of the Monkey Gods. Finally he will give you a reward: the amulet Echo of the Jungle. Continue talking to trigger the final flyby.
