Introduction

Welcome to Lara's newest adventure. If you thought her previous adventures were
exciting, wait until you see what she has planned for you this time. There are
19 massive levels spread out across 5 exotic locations, 59 Secrets, a Secret
Bonus Level, new moves, new enemies and new vehicles to ride.

As always, Sinjin will reveal everything you need to know to win this game and
get a perfect score. You must find all 59 Secrets to unlock the Bonus Level.

Tomb Raider 3 is non-linear and so is this solve. You can play the middle three
levels in any order you wish so this Online Walkthrough is organized 
differently from previous solves. To navigate the various levels in this 
walkthrough all you have to do is pick the Location you need help with from 
the choices in the top window.

This will open a side menu along the left which has each area within that 
location. Clicking on any of these menu items will take you to the text which
describes that area.

New Moves

Lara adds a few new moves to her physical abilities. Now she can Sprint, Crawl,
and Monkey Swing. Naturally, there will be plenty of opportunities (and
puzzles) which require these new abilities to complete successfully.

New Vehicles

Lara gets to drive/ride five new vehicles in her third adventure. These include
a boat, Kayak, Mine Cart, Quad Bike (ATV), and an Underwater Propulsion Unit
(UPU).

Combat Tips

Combat hasn't changed much. One of the key things to remember when fighting
multiple targets is to LET OFF the fire key after you drop an enemy. This way 
you can acquire a new target and not waste ammo on a corpse. Lara can aim very
accurately while jumping around, so try to keep moving to minimize enemy 
damage.

Hardware List

Stopwatch
Lara still has her trusty stopwatch. This allows you to check your level 
completion time and find out if you've missed any secrets. It also makes it
impossible for me to use directions like N,S,E, & W in this solve.

Flares
You can't do any damage with these handy items, but they will be invaluable as
they illuminate your surrounding area, revealing traps, switches and Core's
new dynamic lighting engine. There are LOTS more dark areas in this adventure 
so make sure to
keep a good reserve of flares handy and don't waste them.  Remember, the muzzle

flash of your pistols will also light up a dark area - just not as long.

Pistols
These are Lara's trusty sidearms she brought with her from the first game. Use
them "John Woo-style" to take out your basic baddies. They will auto-aim each
time you press the fire button.

Shotgun
This old favorite is back. Use it on groups of enemies for wide spread damage o
r
when at close range to inflict serious damage on a single opponent.

Desert Eagle
More powerful than the pistols; this powerful handgun is Tomb Raider 3's
equivalent of the Magnums from the earlier games. These are great for close-ran
ge
combat where you need heavy firepower while you dodge.

Harpoon Gun
The reload time on this weapon makes it good for usually a single shot. Use it
to
stall your enemy so you can swim to the safety of dry land. Ammo is also hard t
o
find so conserve every harpoon you find until you absolutely need it.

Uzi's
Another favorite from the first two games; this weapon is very powerful and
should be saved for the bigger enemies and later levels.

Grenade Launcher
This weapon provides some serious destruction. Grenades will explode only after
they are armed and they must travel about 50 feet before they arm. This makes
this weapon a long-range weapon which is good because you don't want to get
caught in your own blast. Do not fire then run forward until after the explosio
n
and resulting deaths.

Rocket Launcher
What more can I say. This weapon will wreck destruction on whatever it hits. Us
e
wisely as ammo is VERY limited.

MP5
Lara trades in her M-16 from the last game for this new military issue Automati
c
Assault Rifle. This weapon is ideal for long-range sniping. You cannot be runni
ng
or jumping while firing this weapon.

Weapons and Ammunition
Ammo is scattered all over the various levels. It is always a good policy to sa
ve
your bigger and better weapons for the bigger and badder enemies. Sometimes I
will give you a recommendation for which weapons to use, but feel free to use
your weapons of choice. There will also be times when I might say "you will fin
d a
certain weapon in a certain location" and all you find is ammo for that weapon.
This is not a bug or error in my solve, but rather part of the game design. Wea
pons
appear in certain locations, but if you ALREADY have that weapon from an earlie
r
"pick-up point" then you will find ammo for the weapon that would otherwise be
there.

Once again you can explore Lara's mansion before starting the REAL game. There
are lots of new things to learn and do. She has expanded the gym and there is a
shooting range where you even get to take shots at that pesky butler. Don't mis
s
the Race Key that unlocks the Quad Bike so you can race around the mansion.

We join our adventure, already in progress. Lara is currently in India, searchi
ng
for the legendary Infada artifact. So if we are finished with all the prelimina
ry
info; let's get on with the game....


LARA'S HOME - Learning the Ropes


I didn't cover any of the details of Lara's Mansion in the last solve because t
here
just wasn't that much to do. This time however, her mansion is almost a mini-le
vel in
itself with lots to do and many small puzzles to solve. The house has been
remodeled a bit so some areas will look different than before. Lara has also
modified her indoor and outdoor assault courses to include her new abilities.

You start off in the bedroom and the weapons closet is unlocked this time. Open
 it up
and grab the box of Flares then head to the main stairs. At the far corner of t
he
landing is another door that leads to the attic (same as last game). Go into th
e dark
attic and light a flare to find a box which you can push twice.  Now go back do
wn to
the library - the room just off the room with the piano and TV.

As you enter the library, turn right and find the book sticking out from the sh
elf.
Push it to turn off the fireplace making it safe to get inside and climb up. At
 the
top, move the boxes and get more Flares. You should now see a hall. Flip the sw
itch
to open a door on a very SHORT timer.

The door you opened is downstairs in the hall leading to the indoor training ro
om.
You will have to use all the shortcuts and fast moves you can find to get there
 in
time. Here is my fastest route:

After flipping the switch, run down the hall back to the attic and down the sta
irs
to the 2nd floor landing. As you exit the attic door, jump over the banister an
d
continue running down the stairs and angle right to clear the railing. Roll and
 start
running toward the gym using the sprint to gain extra speed. Enter the door jus
t
before it closes.

As long as you use the sprint move (only when running in a straight line) you s
hould
have no trouble making it down to the basement. You should find a moveable box
that you can move under the hole in the ceiling and pull up into the hall above
.
Follow the passage to the Aquarium. Take a swim with your fish to find and get
the
coveted RACETRACK KEY! This key opens the hedge maze which has since been
converted into a racetrack for Lara's Quad Bike. Time to set a new record!

Before leaving the house you may want to visit the other secret room. Go to the

swimming pool and press the button on the back of the diving platform. This ope
ns
a door back in the main foyer revealing a switch. Pulling this switch opens a d
oor
directly behind you for a very SHORT time. You will need to sprint and do the d
iving
roll maneuver to get under the door before it shuts. Nice trophy over the firep
lace!

Outside, there are a few new things to do. The assault course has been modified
 to
include training for Lara's new abilities. There is a target range that feature
s
Jeeves running around in a Kevlar vest, combat helmet and tea tray.  You can pu
t him
down, but you can't kill him.

That's about it (or at least as much as I found to do).  Explore the mansion an
d
grounds as much as you want and when you are ready to play the REAL game, go to
 the
main gate and hit the button and exit.


INDIA - The Jungle

Before you start to slide down the first hill, jump over the slope to your righ
t and
slide down to the flat ledge. Jump over to the yellow rock and crouch to find
Secret #1; the Shotgun. Now start sliding down the long ramp and jump up to gra
b
the log. Kill the monkey then jump down so you slide onto a flat section betwee
n
the spikes. Now angle left and jump and slide down to the flat ledge with the
Medkit. You may or may not trigger a rolling boulder trap at this point. If you
 hear
a rumbling, jump or step back to avoid the rock.

Jump to the area behind the tree to get the Save Gem and Secret #2; Shells.
Finish your slide to the bottom and head through the arch to the left. Collect
another Save Gem then climb up the pillar just past the gem.

Grab the ammo on the left then return to the wall for Secret #3. Shell are in t
he
opening to the left of the waterfall and some more ammo is in the third opening
.
Now head to the right through the arch into the large area. A small monkey is o
ff
to the left. He isn't much of a threat, but kill him just the same. You should
be able
to find a small bush with a passage behind it that leads to a switch. Flip the
switch
and head back to the gate that you just opened.

Go through the gate and drop down to the dark hall. A switch is on your right a
nd a
deadly spike trap is on your left. Flip the switch then quickly climb into the
alcove
to avoid the moving wall of death. When it has passed you can go to the other e
nd
of the hall and climb up to the opening. Go through and find the cable-slide an
d
ride it down to the base of a square block. Climb onto this block then doing a
short
running jump into the passage and drop into the next area. If you fall in the r
iver,
do not fight the current. Just let it take you to a tunnel which leads to a sma
ll pool
where you can exit. Watch out for Piranha!

A beautiful but deadly tiger will attack as you enter so warm up those pistols.
 Find
the hollow tree and flip the switch inside to open a gate and also send a bould
er
rolling your way. Dodge the deadly rock then follow its path of origin to anoth
er
switch which opens a gate around the corner. Head into this next room and kill
the
attacking tiger. Head to the right through some thick plants and find the Shell
s on
a small ledge to the left.

Continue into the next area where another tiger will offer itself for target
practice. Keep going until you see some mist rising out of a dark patch in the
middle of the room. This is a deadly spiked pit so stay away from it. Circle ar
ound
to the right and claim the ammo in the trees then crawl under the fallen tree a
nd
kill another tiger before collecting the Save Gem.

Standing at the end of the tree, you should be able to jump and grab and climb
into the tree. This area is Secret #4, but the real trick is getting back out..
..alive!
Hang and drop into a spiked pit with slopes that you can jump back and forth. K
eep
moving to one side and you will soon escape the spikes. Grab the ammo near the
rocks then drop into the tunnel and walk through the spikes. Pull yourself out
of
this area and return to the end of the tree where you started all this.

Follow the hallway to a spiked ledge and kill the monkey before walking through
the spikes. Do a running jump and grab to the outside corner of the hall then j
ump
to the slope above the hall and slide down. Grab the edge as you fall and shimm
y to
the right until you can pull up and get the Save Gem.

Climb up and shimmy over to the dark passage, and use a flare to spot and kill
the
monkey and locate the switch at the other end which opens a gate down below. It
also triggers a boulder trap, so do a roll and run back out of the passage. Whe
n
the threat is over, go back inside and find the hidden ledge above the switch.
Jump and climb up to find Secret #5; ammo then do a safety drop off the ledge t
o
the area below.

Back down in the jungle you should spot a monkey who will lead you into a bould
er trap.
As you run across this area, several boulders will start to roll down at you.
After
the third and final boulder has come to a stop you can head up the slope toward
 the
bushes. Keep to the right as you climb the hill and you should soon discover a
hole
behind the bushes. Grab the Medkit then drop into the pit, quickly grabbing the
 next
ledge to avoid the spikes below. Pull up and enter the passage to find Secret #
6; some
Flares and a Save Gem.

Turn and jump across to the next ledge then reverse and do another jump and gra
b
to climb out of the pit. Return to the area with the three boulders and go past
 them
until you reach a river. Dive in and swim to the right to find some ammo on the
shore. Jump to the small island then jump and pull up to the ledge above where
you
will find a switch to pull that opens a door off in the distance.

Do a running jump and grab from the island to the ledge just next to the pillar
 then
ride the cable-slide to the bottom and take the hall to the left. A Save Gem is
accessible from the top of the pillar and you can also kill a pair of tigers fr
om the
safety of this high perch.

Your next objective is getting inside that opening to the right of the waterfal
l. To
do this you must flood this chamber so head to the left into the dark passage.
Cross the pool and get some valuable Flares from the middle ledge before headin
g
right until you reach a dead end. Pull the block until the nearby gate opens th
en
enter and flip the switch there to open another gate in the floor behind the st
one
you just pulled. Jump in and return to the previous room and climb out onto the
narrow bridge where you can flip the switches at either end to open yet another
gate in the other room.

Head back to that room and enter this gate to find an flip another switch which
floods an upcoming room. One more swim takes you back to the previous room
where you can go through the door between the torches and into the room you jus
t
flooded only moments ago. Swim over to the far waterfall and get out of the
water. Find the passage behind the falls and follow it to the ladder and climb
up.
Walk through the waterfall and climb up the other waterfall before doing a
running jump back to the previous waterfall. You should find a switch at the to
p of
the falls that opens an underwater gate.

Jump (or dive) into the water below and look for some green stone steps. Exit a
nd
climb onto the high ledge then do a running leap to the next ledge where you ca
n
claim a Save Gem. Jump back into the water and go through that gate you just
opened. After a short swim you will reach the next room which has ammo and
Shells all being guarded by a tiger. When you have taken the objects and killed
 the
striped menace, climb that ladder.

Go around the corner and kill the monkey who just ran off with the Indra Key. G
et
the key then look down and spot the tiger lurking below. Kill him from your saf
e
location then drop down. Make sure to avoid the pulsating brown quicksand as yo
u
make your way to the ledge where you can use the Indra Key to open the gate.
More ammo is in a small niche to the left of the door. Enter the gate and exit
the
level.


INDIA - Temple Ruins

Head up the path past the tree and kill the snakes. If you get bit by a snake y
ou
MUST use a medkit otherwise the poison will slowly drain your health until you
die. You may want to wait until all snakes in an area are dead before healing
yourself, otherwise you could waste valuable medkits if you keep getting bit.

A switch over by one of the snakes opens a gate in the floor nearby. Drop throu
gh
the gate and light a flare so you can explore this passage. Get the Medkit and
kill
the snake that guards it before exiting the passage. This next area has some wa
ter
infested with deadly piranha, and you might find some things of interest over b
y
the stairs.

It may sound crazy but dive into the water and swim QUICKLY to the ledge which
is covered by a few inches of water. Get out of the water while you still have
some
meat on your bones and head up the path and flip the switch to open an
underwater gate between a pair of submerged ledges. Dive back into the water
and swim through the gate. Exit on the other side with piranha nipping at your
boots.

A huge mound of dirt lies ahead. As you approach you should be able to just mak
e
out a flat ledge in the pile which is within jumping distance. Make this jump t
hen
walk around to the ledge on the left then jump over to the stone ledge. Walk
around this ledge until you reach an opening by the second waterfall. Enter and
collect the Save Gem then do a running leap out onto the tree.

Explore the branches for ammo and Flares then head back to the main branch and
do another running jump to the left to grab and pull up onto the ledge. Another
running leap takes you to the waterfall where you can make your way up to the
second waterfall. Here you can drop and shimmy to the right to find some Shells
hidden in a niche. Keep crawling until you are able to stand then do a safety d
rop
to the next area.

Over to the left is a ledge you need to jump, grab and pull up onto. Now crawl
into
the cave and watch out for a pair of snakes who block your exit down the ramp.
The
next area has an impressive statue and a stone block to the right that you can
pull
out. Some Shells are behind it, so get them then enter the opening behind the b
lock.
As you exit, another statue comes to life, so run to safety. The mound of dirt
takes
you to a stone ledge with a Save Gem on it. Keep circling the room and use your

Shotgun to take out this giant menace.

After the battle is over, look for a hole in the floor and drop in, where you w
ill
find a switch that opens a gate. Finally, move the block by the switch and ente
r the
next area. The air is alive with poison darts, but this is Tomb Raider 3 and La
ra
can CRAWL in this game. Quickly drop into the nearby hole to get Secret #1;
another Medkit, then get out fast before the rolling boulder crushes you.

Keep crawling past the flying darts and collect the Shells, Medkit and Flares
before returning to the statue room. Enter the gate then carefully make your wa
y
across the sludge. Always keep moving so you don't sink. Head up the slope on t
he
other side then do a running leap to grab the next ledge. Go down the passage t
o
find and flip a switch which opens the nearby gate.

Enter into the next room and quickly jump the swinging blade then sprint to avo
id
the spikes moving in for the kill. Up the stairs you will find a cage with a sw
itch
next to it that opens a gate above. DON'T FLIP THE SWITCH YET! First pull out
the block from the wall then push it over to the left then climb onto it and ju
mp,
grab and pull up onto the ledge. Around the corner is a ladder. Jump and climb
up
the ladder to find Secret #2; a room full of assorted items. Flip the switch th
en
climb back down to the main floor.

Now you can flip that switch by the cage then push the block over so you can cl
imb
onto it and jump over to the ledge. Go through the gate and dive into the water
. Pull
the lever to open the next gate and swim through. Above you is a closed gate so
keep swimming until you reach a pair of levers. Pull both of them to open the g
ate
in the ceiling the swim up to get some much needed air.

Jump into the pool and pull the pair of levers that are opposite each other to
activate the statues that will breath fire. The remaining lever opens a timed d
oor
where you can claim several items also known as Secret #3. if you look closely
you
will notice hidden platforms that are floating above. The fire should make them
visible enough to jump and grab onto the first, then over to the next and final
ly to
the ledge where you can flip the switch. Drop down and get the Save Gem before
running through the door on the left. The gate is on a timer so be fast or you
will
have to repeat the last part.

This long hall has cages at each end and the one right next to you has spikes.
Flip
the nearby switch to open the cage at the far end of the hall and start the cag
e
next to you moving towards you. Sprint down the hall past the open cage and gra
b
the Key of Ganesha. Go through the gate and wait for the spikes to go past. Whe
n
it is safe, return to the hall and get the ammo and Medkit by the switch.

Head back to the previous room with the pool which is now replaced with sludge.
Climb the sludge and enter the passage on the right. You should find some Flare
s
nearby which you really will be needing. Climb the stairs then retreat when the
boulder comes rolling at you and duck into the alcove to the left. Start back u
p the
stairs until you reach a pair of gates and a hole in the floor. The path branch
es
right and left at this point. We will explore both but since the left has an
immediate trap, we'll explore the right first.

Going right trips the boulder trap on the left passage, so flip the switch and
enter
the gate. Ignore the temptation of exploring that hole in the wall unless you h
ave
saved recently and want to see a cool death. Head up the passage until you reac
h a
large room with statues, a Save Gem, and floor grates. Continue down the hall a
nd
kill that pesky monkey who is running off with your Medkit. Finally, drop off a
nd
hang, then climb down the wall to the floor below.

You should now find yourself back in the room with the dead statue from earlier
in the level. Head up the mound and over to the ledge where you should find a p
air
of switches which will open a gate below. Return to the floor and go through th
e
gate into the next room. Go past the pit and into the next door where you will
need
to swim across to flip the switch. Avoid the deadly fire of the statues and if
you
get torched, just jump into the water to put out the flames. When you finally f
lip
the switch you will open a gate underwater which you can swim through while
making sure to avoid the poison darts which shoot from the far wall.

Grab the Medkit from the shore then head to the other grassy ledge where you wi
ll
find a ladder that leads up to a ledge behind you. When you get above the ledge
,
do a backward flip onto it. Then do a running leap to the next ledge in front o
f
you. Jump to the next ledge then turn and climb the wall. Turn again and jump o
nto
the next ledge then turn to see a ledge with a snake ready to strike. Kill the
snake
from your current position then jump over to his ledge. Another jump will put y
ou in
a room with a rolling boulder. Dodge it by heading up the left past the poison
dart
traps. Crawl under the darts and other assorted traps and get the Medkit on the
left before doing a running leap and grab to claim the Save Gem in the alcove.

Return to the pit and jump down onto any of the corners. Walk through the blade
s
and then crouch and crawl through the tunnel to reach a small room with Secret
#4; some ammo guarded by a snake. Drop to the water below and make your way
back to the area where you got the last Save Gem. A moveable block in the corne
r
can be pushed to reveal a second block which can be pushed several times. You
should soon discover a hidden switch that will flood the pit with water. Keep g
oing
into the next room.

A pair of boulders will start rolling towards you as you enter. Sprint out of h
arms
way and head off to the left where you will have to jump across a pit full of
spikes. Look down into the hole and note the spikes on one side and water on th
e
other. Naturally you will want to drop into the water and swim into the next ro
om
with more statues breathing fire at you. You should now be at the pit you just
flooded so dive in and flip the switch to open the gate. Swim down the passage
to
get the second Key of Ganesha, then return to the surface and exit this area.

The next room has a pair of locked gates with a pair of keyhole and you happen
to have
a pair of keys. Enter the now-open gates and note the spiked ceiling dropping t
owards
you. Run to the wall and climb up the ladder where you will find your next Save
 Gem.
The block over in the right corner is moveable and needs to be pulled out so yo
u can
climb on and do a running jump to the ledge and the switch above. Turn and do a
 running
leap to the next ledge to find and flip a second switch which opens the gates.
It also
causes a pair of boulders to come rolling into the room which you can easily av
oid by
jumping to either side.

Through the gates is a room with two paths, each guarded by flaming statues. Yo
u
can dodge the flames with careful timing and use of the sprint run. Wait for th
e
flames to start to die out then sprint towards them and turn at the last minute
before they flare up again. You should now be in the next room with another
statue who comes to life as you enter. Kill this one just like the last and whe
n he is
dead, take his sword.

Climb onto the ledge with a multi-armed statue and the second statue will come
to
life below. Kill him and take his sword then return to the other statue and put
 the
pair of swords in his empty hands. This opens the exit from this room. Enter th
e
next room and take your pick of holes to crawl through. In the next room, drop
to
the floor and go through this room to the next where another statue will come t
o
life as your approach the center platform.

When he is dead you can get the Key of Ganesha from the middle of the room then
head over to the gate which will open for you. Light up the place with a flare
and
sprint into the room and flip the switch at the other end. The spiked ceiling w
ill
start to descend, so quickly flip the second switch to open the floor grate and
drop in. Below is the second Key of Ganesha and a gate which will open as soon
as
you take the key. You can now return to the room where you got the first key.

Head into the next room with the Save Gem floating in the air and the pit fille
d
with water. A very strong current will try to pull you into some spikes on eith
er
side of this room, so quickly swim to the left or right and flip the switch nex
t to
the spikes. Swim back to the front of this room then over to the other switch a
nd
flip it to deactivate the strong currents in this area. You can now pick up the
 third
Key of Ganesha before swim up and climb out of the pit.

Now you can head over to the wall with the three locks and use your hard-earned
keys to open the gate at the top of the stairs. Climb the stairs and go through
 the
gate to end this challenging level.


INDIA - Ganges River

That Quad Bike tempts you right away as you begin this new level, but don't get
 on
it quite yet. Go up to the ramp and drop off the side and hang, then climb down
 the
ladders which take you to the left. Next is a difficult series of running jumps
.
Watch your timing as you make the jump as well as your headroom throughout the
arc of the leap. Backflip from the low area after the small gap then do one mor
e
running jump to access Secret #1.

Once you are in the secret room, face the first slope and jump to it, then jump
 3
more time and grab the edge to reach the flat area and some Shells. Now you get
to make your way all the way back to the Quad Bike. Get up to full speed and ma
ke
the jump over the ramp and keep going along the wall and give the ATV extra gas
when you get near a drop-off.

When you reach a small pit you should be able to find a ladder nearby. It leads
down to Secret #2. Get back on your ATV and circle around to the ledge to make
a big jump. Back up against the wall for extra speed and to make sure you are
lined up squarely for the jump. After the jump you will arrive at a gold door a
nd
will be forced to leave your bike behind for now.

Take a look at the wall near the ramp you just jumped then run and jump into th
e
passage. Crawl along the passage until you can stand, then kill the two snakes
hiding in the shadows as you continue through the passage. You should come to a
hole which you can jump across before arriving at a switch guarded by some
monkeys. Flip the switch to open the gold door then make your way back to the
ATV. Drive until you reach the Save Gem.

At this point you need to stay on the main path. You could take the path to the
 right
which is a major shortcut to the end of the level, but in doing so you would mi
ss
several secrets and ruin any chance of playing the Secret Bonus Level. If you
insist on taking the shortcut; here is a quick narrative of what to expect.

SHORTCUT: Take the ATV down a bumpy slope and jump over the river. You'll end u
p in
a tunnel where a monkey will soon arrive with a Medkit. Kill the monkey and any
 of
his friends then continue down the passage until you reach a green cliff with t
wo
openings. Explore both areas and watch out for the snake who is waiting to atta
ck.

The upper entrance leads to a small room that you can crawl to and get the firs
t
Gate Key. Follow the crawlspace along the green passage that leads to hallway w
ith
more monkeys and the Gate Key Locks. You need to jump and grab the ledge at the
 end
of the hall to get outside where you can spot the gate and some deadly quicksan
d
nearby. Take the Save Gem then find the steep slope and do a backflip onto it.
Grab
on as you start to slide.

Jump off the slope to reach the pillar which you can grab onto and pull up. Jum
p
over to the branches and into the opening in the wall where you will find branc
hes
and a ledge. Kill any monkeys that get in your way then jump a few times to the
 left
to get some ammo from another ledge. Over to the right is a building with the
second Gate Key and more monkeys. Keep an eye on that flaming statue as you hea
d
downstairs then flip the switch to open the gate outside. More monkeys will arr
ive
on the scene, but they shouldn't be too much of a problem.

Return to the hall with the ledge and the Gate Key Locks and open the gate. Ret
urn
to the ATV and ride it up and make a daring jump over the quicksand. Go around
the building where you obtained the second key and head into the jungle by the
river. You will make one final jump across the river to get back on the main pa
th; a
little bit faster but lacking several secrets.

Head along the right side of the slope and make a huge jump. Force your ATV int
o
the wall to slow it down after you land or you will probably have a fatal accid
ent.
Continue up the slope and then turn right. You should now be in a large room wi
th a
large hole in the floor. Head around the hole and up the ramp outside. Stay to
the
right and stop when you reach the top and exit your bike. Walk out onto the ram
p
and you should be able to spot the next secret.

You should be able to find some ammo on the ledge, then jump and pull up to the
crawlspace for Secret #3; Harpoons and a Save Gem. Return to your bike and
follow the ramp until you reach the hall that splits off in two directions. Bot
h
passage lead to the same open area with a Save Gem high above and another ramp
to jump your ATV across. You will have to follow the ramp up as it twists aroun
d
several sharp corners until you reach the actual jump. Naturally there is a big
 hole
in the middle of the ramp, but you should be able to get over it with lots of s
peed.

Ditch the bike and get the Save Gem then get ready to go for the next secret.
Climb down the nearby ladder and from the top of the cliff you should see the
Secret along the ledge on the left. Follow the top ledge and do a running leap
across the chasm to the next ledge. You may need to take care of a vulture abou
t
now. Do a running jump to the next slope followed by another jump and a grab so
you can pull yourself up and crawl in to claim Secret #4. To exit, simply jump
back to the slope and jump once more to get back across.

From the ledge above the falls you should be able to see a small ledge below an
d
to the right. Jump down to the ledge and quickly turn to kill the three vulture
s who
attack. Some ammo is on the ledge and you should also spot a crack which leads
to
Secret #5. Do a running leap and a grab to cling to the ledge and shimmy right.
Continue to the water and walk through the falls and climb the rocks to exit th
is
level.


INDIA - Caves of Kaliya

This level is basically just a big maze so I will try to be specific with my
directions. There are lots more passages available to explore than I am mention
ing
in this solve. I am only outlining the areas useful in completing this level.

At the first intersection, head left to get the Flares. The next intersection h
as a
crawlspace to the left and a pair of dead ends to the right. A hall continues o
n to
the left of the crawlspace, so follow it around until you reach a hole in the f
loor.
Drop into the hole to get some more Flares then climb out and return to the
beginning of the level and take the right path.

After a short crawl you will be running down a ramp being chased by a boulder.
You will probably have to sprint to keep ahead of the boulder but be ready to
make a sharp turn at the bottom of the ramp to get out of the rock's way. Now
head off to the left and explore the passage. You will notice a small alcove to
 the
right which you are about to use. You may want to light this area with a flare
before you proceed. Continue down the hall and when you hear the boulder coming
at you; roll and run back to the alcove to avoid the boulder.

Now continue down the hall and jump and grab onto the ledge and crawl into the
next
series of passages. Watch out for snakes as you explore the area around the lef
t
corner. Return to the crawlspace and continue down the right passage as it wind
s
around to the left ending in a dead end with some Shells. Return to the 3-way
intersection and take the path opposite the crawlspace (or turn right). Follow
the
hall until you notice a raised section of floor. Looking left you should notice
 a
block that you can push out past the raised floor revealing a passage to the ri
ght.
Continue down that hall and turn right at the next intersection. Make a left at
 the
next intersection and finally another right and you should work your way around
 to a
dead end with a hole in the floor.

Drop into the hole and follow this new hall that leads to another crawlspace. G
o
through to arrive at another intersection. Head down the hall until you reach a
room with Flares, a hole and a Save Gem. Jump over the hole to get the gem then
 do
a safety drop into the hole.

YIKES! Surrounded by no less than four snakes. You will be safe as long as you
are standing on the plant in the center of the room. More snakes are waiting by
 the
pair of ramps at the other end of the room and a rolling boulder adds to the
excitement. It's best to dodge the boulder then kill the snakes. If you try to
do
both at once you will certainly get bit. When you have killed the remaining six
snakes, follow the hall where the boulder rolled into and get the Medkit and th
e
Save Gem.

Slide down the ramp and meet the BOSS. Head to the left of the landing and get
ready to do lots of jumping and firing. Keep your back against the wall and alw
ays
keep moving and jumping to avoid his homing missiles. When he is dead you can
collect the Grenade Launcher and grenades from the ledges. Don't bother getting
these first. I learned the hard way that this guy is immune to grenades. Finall
y
move to the center platform and take the Infada Artifact to end your adventures
in India.


LONDON - Thames Wharf

As you begin your adventures in London, check out the slope wall to the right
where you will find the first secret. Do a running jump over the wall and get t
he
ammo and Save Gem before using the box to get over the wall. Drop down and jump
to the crane then drop to the counterweight and finally jump and grab onto the
ladder. Avoid the barbwire and make your way down the sloped roof. Finally walk
through the remaining barbwire and kill the rats and claim Secret #1.

Return to the crane then make your way back to the beginning of the level. Now
hang from the walkway until you can spot a ramp and a switch below you. Drop
onto the slope then jump and grab the ledge and pull up to flip the switch. Do
a
running jump and grab to the next ledge and get the Medkit then slide down to t
he
green door that opened when you flipped that last switch.

The second part of the platform in this dark area will collapse as you walk ont
o it
so do a sprint/roll to get across it and onto the next stable section. Do a run
ning
leap and grab from this section and pull up onto the next ledge and kill the gu
y so
you can take his Flue Room Key. Return to the ledge and drop and grab the ledge
below. Push the button to open the exit then shimmy right to leave.

Return to the green trapdoor and flip the switch to the right before doing a sa
fety
drop to the level below. You should spot a ledge above the green door about the
same time you are attacked by a crow. When the threat is eliminated, shimmy alo
ng
the ledge and find a pair of crawlspaces. The second space is Secret #2. Now
return to the ledge with the green door and climb into the dark crawlspace and
continue to the right.

Push the next button and return through the crawlspace to find another button
that moves the scaffold. Go to the end of the ledge and do a safety drop to the
slope below and make your way to the ground floor. Kill the sniper before getti
ng
more Flares and a Save Gem then climb the stack of boxes to return to the upper
ledges. Find and use the ladders to return to the beginning of this level.

Flip the switch then jump back over the ledge above the green door. Shimmy alon
g the
crack to the right and follow the path until the paths split.  Take the lower p
assage
and you should spot the scaffold down below. To the right is the button you saw

arlier. Push the button to raise the scaffold so you can access the Flue Room d
oor.
Do a running jump to the scaffold and grab in midair so you don't hit your head
 on
the awning.  A crow will show up about now, so when he is dead you can enter th
e
Flue Room.

Grab the Save Gem and push the button that will cause flame jets to shoot into
the
room. Time your run through the flames to exit. Do a safety drop from the scaff
old
to get back to the main path, then return to the split and take the upper passa
ge
this time. You should spot a hole that is now open thanks to that button you pr
essed
back in the Flue Room.

Before you drop into the hole, get some ammo that is on the ledge above. Jump a
nd
grab and pull up to get it then look to the left. Slide down the slope and drop
 to
the ledge. Drop down to get Secret #3; a Rocket, before climbing back up and
dropping into the hole.

Follow the passage and do a jump and grab to pull up to the ledge with the Save
Gem then continue down the sloping passage. Grab the Medkit before sliding down
and dropping into the next room where a guard requires your swift attention. Yo
u
are now in the Water Control Room (in case you were wondering) and there is a
pretty good puzzle to solve.

There are two tanks in this room; one is full and the other is empty. There is
also a
hallway to the left that you can't get to just quite yet. Flip the switch to fl
ood the
empty tank then jump in and swim down to get some items and flip a second switc
h
that opens a door in the full tank. Return topside and flip the switch again to
 lower
the water level in the tank with the door you just opened. Dive in and swim pas
t the
dangerous blades which should slow down as you get near allowing you to pass.
Continue along the passage past the fans and look for a crawlspace when the mai
n
hall comes to a dead end. Drop down to the passage below and enter the dark
room.

Pull the mesh box out then push it along the walkway so the generator smashes t
he
wall panel. Be careful and always back away after each movement of the box just
in case... You should also find a Save Gem over by the light switch. After you
have
shorted out the appropriate systems, the glass panel back in the Water Control
Room will have lifted and you can access the button.

You should now have access to the glowing red hall to the left. Follow the hall
 and
swim over to kill another guard and press the button to raise the second glass
shield. Return to Water Control Room and use the monkey swing to get across the
now-dry tank. After you press the second button, return to the tank you just di
d
the monkey swing on and swim down following the underwater tunnel where you
can find some Harpoons. When you come to the open area, grab the items and exit
into the hallway.

Follow this passage through some barbwire and jump to the crane platform and do
another jump to the wall. Watch out for a sniper in the cathedral dome who is
protecting this levels final two secretes. Find and push the moveable block so
you
can use it to climb to the ledge above. You should get a Medkit; Secret #4, and
 a
running jump over to the far slope will get you the Cathedral Key (which is use
d in
the Secret Bonus Level).

Before leaving, check out the fence to the left and notice the break. Climb dow
n
the ladder and follow the path down to Secret #5; a Medkit before climb up and
exiting the dome and this level.


LONDON - Aldwych

As the level begins grab onto the ledge and get the Shotgun Shells, before you
drop into the subway. Blast open the grating in the first hall and climb into t
he
upper area where you can find several items. Kill anything sneaking up on you -
rats are abundant in this level. Walk around and pull out the box with the
climbable surface then drop into the ticket booth area. Kill some more rats the
n
climb up the opening above the ticket booth where you will find the Maintenance
Room Key. Leave through the door and take the escalator on the right. Jump the
pit
then head through the door.

A button in the room turns on the lights which should let you spot an Old Penny
lying next to the tracks. Drop down onto the lower tracks then sprint and dodge
 to
the right to avoid the oncoming train. You should now be in a red room which yo
u
will see many more times during this level. Get all the items then climb up the
ladder and backflip to the ledge. Monkey swing across the ceiling then turn rig
ht
and drop at the wall.

Do a safety drop into the drill room the jump sideways to the left as the floor
 falls
out beneath you. Slide then jump and grab to hang onto the ledge and shimmy rig
ht
as a blade comes down. When you get to the right, drop and grab the edge of the
slope and pull up and do a backflip with a twist to face and grab the opposite
ledge. One more safety drop to the next ledge gets you Secret #1.

Back in the upper chamber, climb to the ledges and sidestep to the right then g
et on
the block when the flames die down. Climb up and flip the switch to open a door
 back
in the red room and activate another trap. Climb up into the chamber above the
train
platform and kill some rodents and gather up the items before dropping down to
the
platform. Return to the red room using the lower tracks and climb up to the tra
p door.

In this room you will need to kill a guy then find the area to drop down and pu
ll out
the box so you can enter the next hall.  Continue down this hall until you reac
h a
green colored area with a pair of buttons. Press the left button then sprint to
 the
middle and far right rooms to get the first Solomon Key. On your return trip th
rough
the red room do the monkey swing into the drill room to get the second Solomon
Key
in the hall above the drill.

Head back to the ticket booth and use that Penny to buy a Ticket. Investigate t
he
other escalator and kill anything that gets in your way. When you spot the muds
lide
you should also see a grating you can blast open. Drop inside to find Secret #2
,
then head down the tracks and shoot the guard on the right. Shoot him fast
otherwise he will escape and have you run over by a train.

In the small room, find and push the button to enter the next puzzle room. A sm
all
alcove should also open back on the track allowing you to get a Save Gem which
you should get (and use) before tackling this next puzzle. This next room is to
ugh.
Press the button on the right just inside the hall then head down the long hall
around a left turn to press the next button. A room should open, so enter and p
ress
the button on the left, then return to the hall and go around the turn to find
a
button on the right. Push it, then head back to the very first button and push
it
before heading all the way back down the long hall and pressing that button aga
in.
You should now have access to the Mason's room. If not - then be glad you saved
your game.

The first thing you want from the Mason's room, besides that Save Gem, are the
Uzi's. There are some nasty floor panels that will collapse so watch out for th
ose.
The Ornate Star is behind the curtain. You can run to get it but you will have
to
jump back as the floor will have collapse behind you. Use that pair of Solomon
Keys to get the Masonic Mallet. Watch out for attack dogs when you take this it
em.

You should find a second door in the Mason's room where you can swim to a new
area. Run, jump and grab the crack in the wall and shimmy right. Jump to the
ceiling panel and then drop down to the crawlspace and continue until you reach
the barrier. That Ticket will come in handy about now and so will you guns agai
nst
the attacking rats. Use the Ornate Star in front of the door to trigger Secret
#3.
Get ready for some fast combat action before following the upper hall to the
escalator.

Continue until you reach the locked door then use the Masonic Mallet to open th
e
door and follow the hall until you arrive at the train. Kill the guard then exp
lore
the darkness for more useful items and Secret #4. Enter the train and press the
button then follow the passages leading to the end of this level but don't leav
e just
yet.

You should spot a guy with a torch running off down a hall. Follow him, but DON
'T
SHOOT. He is your ticket to the final secret in the game. As you go around the
corner you will get attacked by two guys. Kill them both then press both of the
switches in the small room to open the final secret back in the red room. Retra
ce
your path back through the train and across an overpass and through a trapdoor.
Back in the red room you should now see a new open door with lots of items and
even some target practice to the left of the intersection. This is Secret #5, a
nd
once you have it you can exit the level via either ramp back by the room with t
he
two buttons that opened this secret.


LONDON - Lud's Gate

The important thing to remember now is that the Immortals are now "friends",
much like the Monks from Tomb Raider 2. As long as you leave them alone, they w
ill
leave you alone.

Take a left at the room with two pools and slide down to the room below. Pull u
p onto
the right ledge then drop down to the crack then finally the ground where you c
an walk
through some barbwire. Pull up where the crack widens to find a dark area also
known
as Secret #1. Exit via the hole in the ceiling then jump around the corner to g
rab the
edge of the slope to get back up above the barbwire.

Press the button to open the trapdoor then climb to the passage and get the Med
kit
before jumping and climbing up the mesh.  When you get above the green gate do
a
backwards jump with a twist to land on the ledge behind you. Backflip and twist
 to
reach the ladder behind you and climb up and drop then grab so you are hanging
from
the ledge. Now pull up onto the ledge to trigger Secret #2.

Climb the mesh and crawl to the end of the passage where some ammo is stashed.
Then
crawl back until you can stand and drop down to the room where you can find a m
oveable
block. Kill the guard then move the block to the other side of the track so you
 can
enter the next area.

You should now be in an Egyptian area and a ladder is nearby. Climb up and go
through the opening. Follow the passage and move the box so you can climb up to
put you within jumping and grabbing reach of the exit. Now use the pillar to re
ach
the upper ledge to the left. Slide down the red sloped hall to the room with th
e
block and move it over to the middle then return to the Egyptian room. Climb th
e
pillar and find the switch on the wall to the left of the ladder. Do a running
jump
and grab to lower your arc and land on the ledge. Flip the switch to close the
ladder door.

Use the monkey swing to access a pair of alcoves where you can claim a Save Gem
and find a switch that opens the a door above you. Climb to the top of this roo
m
using the ladder and various ledges on the left. You should find some items alo
ng
the way. At the top of the slope you will want to slide and jump then grab the
walkway. Slide again and jump as the floor gives way beneath you. You should no
w
be able to get the Embalming Fluid before going on.

Kill the guard up ahead then enter the crawlspace leading to the next room. As
you
exit into this next room you will be taking hits already from a gunman. Stand a
nd
kill him quickly then get the Rocket from behind the door before heading to the
Sphinx room. Monkey swing across to the ledge and get the Save Gem then drop to
the head of the Sphinx.

Head to the left-rear corner and do a standing jump to a small ledge with a
Medkit. Jump to the nearby pillar then do a running jump and grab the edge of t
he
slope. Pull up and slide then jump to the ledge where you can see another Save
Gem
and register Secret #3.

Once you reach the bottom, kill any enemies then move the boxes around. Stand o
n
the first ledge and climb one of the boxes to access the upper passage where
Secret #4 will chime. Jump and grab and then drop from the blue ledge to get
back down. Move the other box to return to the beginning of this level where yo
u
can use the Embalming Fluid at the ceremonial altar to open the next passage.

Dive in and locate the UPV. Head to the right to find the opening and enter the
 hole
beneath the box as a croc closes in. Once inside, spin around and shoot the cro
c as
he swims toward you.  Collect all the items from the surrounding area and don't
 forget
to catch your breath every now and then. A strong current will suck you into a
new area
over to the right.  Follow this passage and spot the next secret through the wi
ndow.
Pull the lever to the right and push the button above to open the next passage
further
down this one.

Continue along the passage and head to the right when you enter the large area.
 Air is
above around a second right turn and down below is a room with a switch. Down n
ext to
this room is a small alcove in the wall with some items that make up Secret #5.

Return to the large underwater area and head down the narrow hall. Climb out on
 the
ledge to the right and stay low. Your final Secret #6 is underwater and to the
right,
but you must kill the frogman quickly or he will close it off and you won't be
able to
get it (without restoring your game). Take the underwater tunnel to the large a
rea where
there are lots of items to collect, switches to flip and doors to explore. Air
is
available in the upper-left corner and you will need to breath before each dive
.

When you flip the final switch the exit will open back to the left of the air p
ocket.
A small army of frogmen will also swarm the area. Get out of this area as quick
ly
as possible. Once you make it to the water passage, drop down beneath the flami
ng
ledges and pull the lever to turn off the fire. Dodge the pistons and use the
monkey swing to get to the opening in the waterfall. Use the Boiler Room Key to
open the door back through the underwater chamber.

Follow the machinery to the left and kill some guards. The trail should come to
 a
dead end but a crawlspace is nearby which leads to the next area. Do a running
jump and grab onto the ledge. When you reach the purple ledge it's time for the
next level and the next BOSS!


LONDON - The City

This entire level is pretty much one big fight with Sophia. Try to keep under c
over
except for those brief moments when she has to recharge her deadly energy bolts
.

You start in the office and the battle begins when you near the end of the hall
.
Run for the ramp then pull up and turn. Ignore the monkey swing and just do a
running jump and grab to clear the gap. Pull up onto the pillar then pull up ab
ove
the monkey swing.

If you look away from Sophia you should spot a metal box and if you look over t
he
edge you should spot this level's only secret. Back off and hang from the wall
then
drop and grab onto the next ledge and pull up into the alcove to claim the item
s
and register Secret #1. When you are ready to get back into battle, hang and dr
op
off to the floor below.

Climb back to the ledge with the metal box and find the catwalk leading away
from the secret area. Follow it to a button and press it. Do a roll and run bac
k
quickly to avoid incoming fire from above. You should now find an open door to
the
ledge above. Pull yourself up to the ledge and head along the catwalk to the
ladder. Wait at the bottom of the ladder for the sound of Sophia recharging her
energy before trying to climb the ladder. At the top, climb into the space to t
he
right and get the Medkit if it's safe. Crawl out then get on top of the crawlsp
ace.

Run along this upper catwalk and do a running jump to grab the far ledge. Climb
 up
and move forward to the fuse box on the wall. Put a few bullets into the box to

finish off Sophia once and for all. One of the four relics is visible across th
e way,
but your immediate path is pulsing with electricity. Return across the upper ca
twalk
to the crawlspace and make the small jump across the street. Watch out for elec
trified
areas and pull up onto the tall wooden box then over to the next box. Climb ove
r the
box to the right of the relic to find the main power switch. Push it to kill th
e power
then safely claim your artifact. That's it - I hope you enjoyed your stay in Lo
ndon.


NEVADA - Nevada Desert

Vultures above and snakes below will be your main threats in the desert. A snak
e
to the right of your starting location guards a Rocket. Wade across the water a
nd
enter the passage to find a block you can push. Grab the ammo and head up the
trail. A pair of running jumps should land you on the middle ledge where you ca
n
do a safety drop to the area below. Snakes guard Secret #1. Don't let them back
you into the barbwire behind you before you kill them and get the items.

To exit this area you need to push that block you moved earlier then jump down
to
the platform below and do a running jump and grab to get off this ledge. Contin
ue
until you see a metal chute then head right and jump up to the ledge nearby. Ki
ll
the snake hiding in the bushes then run and jump to the next ledge. Run right o
ff
the end of this ledge to drop to the next one below and continue along until yo
u
can drop down and get a Medkit.

Climb back up and continue to the rocks where you can run, jump and grab to
reach the rocks where you can deal with another snake as you make your way to
the top of the chute. Drop into the chute and fall into the water. Swim until y
ou
can surface for air and climb out. Look around and find the trail leading away
from the waterfalls.

Head down the path and defend yourself against the vulture attack. You will be
taking this same path two more times so get used to the jumping and climbing yo
u
are doing this first trip. Continue until you reach the high ledge at the same
level
as the cool rock formation.

Do a running jump across the canyon and climb down to locate the next secret.
Climb down the ladder and stay to the right. Drop from the ladder and grab righ
t
away to cling to the crack and shimmy right until you can climb onto the ledge
and
get Secret #2. Jump into the water below and get all the items that are stashed
underwater as well as several alcoves near the waterfall.

Exit the water by climbing up the red rock near the falls. At the top, do a run
ning
jump to the slope across from you then head down that path again for your secon
d
of three trips along this trail. Take the upper route this time and kill anothe
r snake
hiding in the bushes. Jump past the rock and avoid the hole on the ledge. Do a
drop
and a grab to the crack below and shimmy left until you can climb up to the led
ge.
Jump and cling to the rock face above and monkey swing to the face of the cliff
,
then climb up the cliff to the left.

Take the Save Gem then find the Flares and TNT on the ledge below. Looks like y
ou
need a Detonator Key, so move on for now. Head to the waterfall and jump over t
o
the slop and grab on as you slide off. Climb down to the ledge below and contin
ue
along the cliff until you can jump over to the rocky surface and climb to the t
op.
Do a daring backflip over to the flat rock then jump and grab the slope between
 the
pair of waterfalls. As you pull up you will start to slide toward the ledge whi
ch
you will need to jump and grab to reach. Grab the ammo before jumping to the cr
ack
and shimmy right. When you get the wide angle camera view, drop and jump to do
another
backflip across the water.

Keep jumping along the platforms as you make your way upstream. You should come
across a large cave with a waterwheel. A boulder on the left shore is the hidin
g
place of another snake. Crawl under the opposite rock and go up the ladder to g
et
Secret #3. Climb to the left and drop down to the floor and kill the snake. Ret
urn
to the shore and investigate further.

To the left of the waterwheel is a small room with an elevator. Here you will f
ind
the Detonator Key and a guy guarding it. Kill him then climb up the waterwheel
and
follow the channel to an open area. Watch out for more vultures at this point.
Dive
into the water and swim down to the right where you will find a switch that ope
n a
door leading to a room with some ammo. Flip the next switch to open the
underwater passage and enter to find another switch hidden along the dark wall
above. Pull it then swim back through the passage pulling another switch as you
make your way back to the hall above.

Find the final switch and pull it to start the waterwheel. Head back that direc
tion
and get the items from dry river bed as you do. Use the upper ledge then jump
down to the river bed. You should find a block down here that will let you get
behind the falls. After you have gotten everything you want, return to the elev
ator
by the waterwheel.

Kill the guard and take the Detonator he was protecting then make the long trip
back to the ledge with the TNT. You have the necessary items to do a little
blasting but watch out for that boulder that's just waiting to crush you. Jump
to
the left to avoid getting crushed after you blast the TNT. Explore the demolish
ed
area and climb up the new ledges to reach the next area.

Head around the fence to the left and climb into the dark passage. Continue unt
il
the path splits and pull up to the upper ledge. Jump into the water and swim ar
ound
to find a pair of switches hidden in the tunnel and behind the pillar. Flip the
m both
then return to the outside area by the fence. Head down the large cave and kill
 the
snakes before flipping the next switch inside the building.

Make another trip down that dark passage and this time take the low path. Kill
some guards, then jump across the fence to the box and put some distance betwee
n
you and the hum of the electric fence as more guard move in for combat. Explore
the nearby building to find some guards watching over a Quad Bike and a lock. A
few bullets should get you the necessary permission to take the bike for a spin
.

Use the box and the grating to climb onto the roof of the next building to get
the
Generator Access Pass. You could also ride and jump the ATV onto the roof. but
it
is quite dangerous and you will probably die a few times in the attempt. Return
 to
the lock with the Access Pass and open the door. Do an immediate backflip and k
ill
the power to the electric fence. Push the button next to the main gate and get
on
your ATV and ride out of this area. Head down the cave and jump the fence to ex
it
the desert.


NEVADA - High Security Compound

You start this level relieved of all your possessions (except for Save Gems). Y
ou
have more allies in this level as long as you don't mess with the prisoners. Th
ey will
help you dispatch the numerous guards on this level, so just bait the guards an
d
lead them back to the inmates who will properly thrash them.

Jump into the window to get the attention of the nearby guard. When he gets
close, sprint past him and jump the railing outside. When he comes after you, r
un
back upstairs toward your cell and flip the switch nearby to release your
"neighbor" who will fight the guard for you. Now it's time to start a prison ri
ot, so
open all the remaining doors to release the rest of the inmates. Make a careful
note of the cell door that was already open and head there after the prisoners
are
free.

This room has a box which is the beginning of a complicated sequence of events
to
get the first secret. Push this box to find a crawlspace. Crawl in and push the
 next
box which let you push the previous box back down the passage so you can now
see the crawlspace to your right. Pull the second box two times then crawl back
through to get the Medkit which is also Secret #1.

Take the passage out of this cell and jump and grab onto the walkway above. Do
a
running leap over the barbwire and keep going. You will need to walk through so
me
barbwire to reach the next switch then use the ledge nearby to reach the trapdo
or.
You should spot a ledge about halfway down to the left. Head down the dark pass
age
and jump over the first trapdoor then enter a small room and drop through the t
rapdoor
to enter the Control Center. Press the button here and watch a small inmate vs.
 guard
battle which will get you a Security Pass when it's all over.

Find the dining room and take the door to the left to find some large boxes. Fi
nd and
push the moveable box under the hole in the ceiling then climb up and jump over
 the
pipe to find and flip the switch. You can now swim into the room with the boxes
 and
swim into another hole in the ceiling to arrive at the kitchen. Make your way t
o the
room with the red floor and continue down the walkway avoiding the barbwire pit
s until
you reach a pair of doors.

The yellow room has a switch to turn off the fire in the kitchen. Return and dr
op
into the kitchen and open the door at the other end. Go around the corner and o
pen
the door on the right then sprint back to the kitchen and head right then left
into
the hall. Run all the way back to where the prisoners are so they can take care
 of
the guard chasing you. When all is safe; return to the door where the guard cam
e
from and explore that room.

You should find a switch that opens the vent above the grill. Jump to the crack
 so
you can shimmy left and jump from the slope to the ledge across the pit. Pull u
p
into the crawlspace. Follow the corridor until you spot an inmate in the hall.
Continue on to the green passage and let the guard go by. When he moves to the
left you can sprint to the right and get out of sight before he turns. Head rig
ht
and dodge the next guard as you cross the open area and make your way to the
lower prison area.

Open the cell to free another prisoner and he will take off down the hall. Foll
ow
him as he proceeds to beat on a guard allowing you to get a Security Pass which
opens the nearby door. Continue down the large passage and when the guard spots
you, lead him on a chase down the left hall. Open the cell in the passage and g
et
the key after the beating is over. This key is a perfect match for the lock bac
k in
the open area.

When you come across the guard below you need to duck and enter the crawlspace
and head toward the switch. Wait for the guard to go left then flip the switch
and
jump over the red laser to get into the hall before the guard shoots you. Conti
nue
down this hall to the next room. From the walkway, do a safety drop from the
lowest support beam to the ground. Go climb the ladder to enter the corridor wi
th
the guard on duty. He is guarding the level's final secret so you will have to
return
when you have some weapons.

Sneak past the guard and return to the red passage and use the Security Pass in
the lock and climb up the ladder. Push the button to open the small door. There
 is
also a switch nearby that will close this door. Under NO circumstance should yo
u
press this switch, otherwise you will never get that final secret. Instead, jus
t dive
in the water and get the Save Gem.

Swim through the long passage until you can climb out and jump the lasers to re
ach
the ledge. You should now be in the cargo area where you can climb some boxes t
o
the left to find your Pistols and Desert Eagle in a small room. Watch out for a
 very
deadly gun turret as you leave this room. Hang a right and sprint to safety unt
il the
gun shuts down. Then you can climb up the boxes and make your way to the final
secret.

Head through that door you hopefully left open and make your way to the main
floor by the big dish. Then go to the hall with the guard you sneaked by earlie
r
and finish him off. Take his Security Pass and open the door at the end of the
hall.
The short passage beyond is home to Secret #2; a Grenade Launcher!

Return to the cargo room and this time go up the slope and take out the guards
with
your favorite weapon. When the passage is clear, climb the ladder to find a but
ton
to the right. Pushing the left button will bring in more guards which probably
isn't
a good thing since you are trying to save ammo. Climb onto the box so you can
reach the upper ledge in the cargo area then monkey swing across to the next
ledge. Kill the next guard and take his Security Pass to open the locked gate.
Kill
the small army of guards and finally climb into the truck to leave this level a
nd
head for Area 51.


NEVADA - Area 51

The key to this level is to kill your enemy fast. They will usually not attack
you, but
rather make a dash for the nearest alarm switch to call in for reinforcements.
Use
your Desert Eagle and you should be able to kill these guys quickly and accurat
ely
from a distance.

When you arrive, get out of the truck and get the items from the nearby crates.
 Chase
down the guard and kill him before he hits the alarm switch. Get the MP5 and us
e the
button (not the alarm switch) to open the grate which lets you crawl in to get
a Medkit.

The next area has laser traps (get used to them as they are everywhere). Enter
the
crawlspace and crawl to the left to get another Medkit. Go back to the tunnel a
s the
lasers move away. Wait until they move above you then run to the ledge and grab
 and
pull up get out of the path of the returning lasers. When the guard moves off t
o the
right, crawl out of the passage and quickly kill the guard before he hits the a
larm.

You will soon arrive at a laser-trigger turret which can easily be avoided by s
imply
crawling through the hole in the wall. Continue along the passage and kill anot
her
guard and continue until you find the switch above the trapdoor. Flip the switc
h
and fall below, turning left and heading to the right of the pillar when you la
nd. A
guard is already running for an alarm to your left. Kill him fast or lose acces
s to
the first secret.

Gather up the Grenades then drop to the mesh floor and flip the switch to open
the
trapdoor which drops you down once again. Kill the next guard and go through th
e
open gate leading to the crawlspace which is also considered Secret #1. Collect
the ammo and drop through the trapdoor to the hall below. Another guard needs
your swift attention before you move off to explore around the corner.

Flip the switch to open a cell releasing a prisoner. He will move off to fight
a
guard while you can duck inside to get the Medkit. Back in the long passage you
will need to use the crawlspace to avoid the numerous laser traps and get anoth
er
Medkit and Shotgun in the process. Kill the guard next to the buttons which
monitor the upcoming trap.

As you approach the door, guards will move in from both sides. When they are
dead you can find a switch in one of their hiding places that opens the crawlsp
ace
in the other. Continue up the corridor and trip the green laser to activate the
 alarm
and kill the guard who arrives on the scene. When you have to choose your next
path, head to the right and use the wall for protection from the sniper over by
 the
missile. Once he is dead, get the Code Clearance Disk and head back down the ha
ll
and take the left passage.

Jump over the lasers to reach the console and use the disk to get that missile
out
of the way. Now you can get the ammo from the ledge and prepare to get the next
secret.

Do a running jump to the ladder between the missiles and climb up. Backflip fro
m
the top and kill the sniper lurking in the corner. Jump over to his location th
rough
the gap in the beams and get the Hangar Access Key. At the other end of his led
ge
is a platform you can drop onto. A weird grating on the wall can be blasted and
you can crawl into the tunnel to claim Secret #2; a much needed Save Gem. Retur
n
to the missile bay and find the passage on the ground floor.

Avoid the hole in the floor that leads to the launch control area. Use the Hang
ar
Key when you find the lock and enter. Kill the guard on the train platform befo
re
dropping down near the deadly electric rail. Climb up the mesh and push the but
ton
to call the train. Jump from the ledge to the train then jump to the hall above
 to
monkey swing over the gratings that open up as you pass by. Keep an eye on the
lasers and wait for them to move away before dropping down just as they reverse
and come back at you.

Another guard is running off for help. Kill him before he gets it then continue
 up
the hall into the next area. Go around the UFO and watch out for those green
electic eyes that will activate those deadly gun turrets. When you reach the bo
xes,
climb up to the opposite passage and kill the guard up ahead. He is headed for
an
alarm down the hall to the left and you better not let him reach it.

The room with the pair of buttons is tricky and dangerous. A guard will arrive
when you press the buttons the first time. When they are dead you can finish th
e
puzzle in comfort. Push the left button then quickly press the button on the ri
ght
by jumping right and rolling then use the white top of the console to get to th
e
other walkway and drop to the floor and run out the door.

Kill the next guard and study all those switches. Flip the two switches on the
right
then the second switch from the left to access the UFO. Return to the UFO and
push the button before climbing the ladder. Backflip from the ladder to the
rafters then do a running jump across the rafters until you reach the catwalk
above the UFO. Get the Launch Code and return to that hole in the floor I
mentioned earlier that leads to Launch Control.

Use the code to access the button and as soon as you push it, jump to the left
and
roll and keep running. Use the sprint for extra speed to escape the fireball. R
eturn
back to the area where the missile used to be and kill the guard who arrived to
check out all the noise. Open the passage and enter as the door seals behind yo
u -
gulp! Continue past the laser trap and kill the sniper and anybody else who get
s in
your way. Get the key to the UFO and finally flip the switch below to open the
trapdoor.

Return to the area with the UFO and gather up the items lying about before
climbing back into the rafters. Head past the walkway leading to the UFO and do
 a
running jump and grab to the open door leading to the aquarium. Inside is Secre
t
#3; another Save Gem.

Finally the moment you've been waiting for; use the UFO Key to get inside the s
hip
where more guards are waiting to give you a hard time. There's no going back as
the door seals shut behind you. When everyone is dead (except for you hopefully
),
get the relic from the upper area and you can leave Nevada.


SOUTH PACIFIC ISLANDS - Coastal Village


This level features two unique paths to get to the village and each path shares
 a
common pair of secrets while having it's own unique third secret. If you know t
he
secret path you can also claim the third unique secret from the other path and
actually get four out of a possible three secrets for this level. I'll tell you
 how to
do it if you want to make the trip. You will get no extra prizes or bonuses; on
ly the
admiration of Lara and myself for being so diligent. On a final note - you don'
t get
to find or fire that cool gun in the following picture. I just included it beca
use it
looked cool and it was in a jungle setting. Sorry if you got all excited...

Begin the level by heading right and swim into the lagoon. Below is a block and
 a
Smuggler's Key (crucial for finding that forth secret). Swim out onto the beach
 and
get the Medkit then investigate those cliffs. Do a running jump over to the slo
pe and
grab on to shimmy right until you can get up on the flat surface. Jump over the
 next
flat area then do a running leap to grab and pull up onto the ledge with Secret
 #1;
MP5 ammo.

Now the paths diverge. One route leads down behind the yellow colored slope. Th
e
other starts inside the hut where you can use the Smugglers Key to open the
trapdoor. This route is the ONLY way to get all four secrets on the island. Sin
ce
the trapdoor route requires some backtracking along the OTHER route I will
explain it first. If you choose the trapdoor route I will tell you when it's ti
me to
backtrack.

Slide down the slope behind the yellow ridge. You cannot get back up this slope
 so
the trapdoor (and forth secret) is forever out of reach unless you restore. Hea
d
into the thick bushes where a native is hiding. Do a running jump and grab to t
he
ledge above the swamp. You will trigger a dart trap but as long as you don't mo
ve
they won't hit you. Run and jump out of here when the darts have past.

You will pass under a rope bridge and continue to the opening where more native
s
await. Climb up the roots of the large tree then pull up onto the ledge. Some S
hells
are a few ledges (and jumps) away in the opposite direction of the swamp. Find
and follow the branch that runs along the rope bridge. Do a running jump to gra
b
the branch and take it to the other side where you can find Serpent Stone #1. A
concealed ledge is above you and has Secret #2; ammo on it. Slide down to the
ground and head over to the waterfall.

Drop down and get the Save Gem then follow the path until you can jump behind
the waterfall into a dark area. You should find Serpent Stone #2 in this room.
Now return to the exit and jump to the slope and walk down it so you don't fall
off. Make your way to the platform in the middle of the falls and climb the lad
der.
Follow the passage and keep climbing to reach the upper level. Kill the native
waiting on the ledge then do a running leap and grab to the next ledge.

From this ledge you should be able to jump to the next ledge near the final sto
ne.
Jump around the corner next to the torch and get Serpent Stone #3. You now can
just slide down from the ledge and find the passage with the slots for the thre
e
stones. Put each stone in its resting place and the entrance to the village wil
l open.

Enter the village and kill the native on the ledge above. More natives move in
from
the left. You should get a Medkit and a Rocket is in one of the huts. Another n
ative
over to the left is shooting poison darts. Dodge them and kill him quickly. Fol
low
the path to the left and kill another native on the ledge before turning the wh
eel
which opens the path back to the right. Return to the village and kill more att
acking
natives who try to stop you. Head into the new open area along the right path.

Natives are waiting between the huts to surprise you. There are also some Shell
s
on the ledge nearby. Between the huts is a dark path. If you light a flare you
should spot a secret cave. Keep an eye out for attacking natives as you get Sec
ret
#3 from inside the cave.

Now head to the treehouse and climb the ledge to search the huts above. Watch
out for more native snipers with dart shooters. Remember that poison will slowl
y
eat away at your health, even after the initial hit. Turn the wheel in the hut
to open
a door below the treehouse. This will also summon a native who needs to learn
about the proper use of gun powder.

Jump out of the window in the treehouse and over to the sloped roof. Jump again
as soon as you land then grab to cling to the ledge. Climb into the passage and
 kill
the guy in there before proceeding down the hall. Watch out for the hole in the
floor as you make your way to the top of the hut where you can reach the vines
above. Grab them and monkey swing to the other end, then turn to the right and
head to the intersection and keep left.

In the next hut you will find a button which raises a grating allowing you to g
et by
the deadly fire. This trap is quite deadly so do it fast and do it right. After
 you
push the first button, turn and kill the native, then sprint past the spinning
blades
and turn the wheel. Now slide backwards and hang before dropping to the slope
below.

A giant crocodile is lurking about the water in this area so you may want to ge
t to
the safety of shore quickly so you have the advantage. Follow the tunnel to the
 end
of this level.

ALTERNATE ROUTE: Go through the trapdoor in the hut and the run and jump
from the upper section to dodge the trap. Climb up to the torch in the next cav
e
and kill the native shooting darts at you. Do a monkey swing from the nearby le
dge
until you can drop down and climb to the green rocks to the right. Climb up to
the
corner above the entrance then monkey swing over towards the gem. Watch out for
the crocs in the water below.

Jump onto the slope and slide down, then jump the gap at the bottom to reach th
e
opposite ledge. Another sniper is lurking in the tall grass above. Do a running
 jump
and grab the ladder and climb up to the Medkit. Hang onto the ledge and shimmy
left to
get the Save Gem before running off this ledge toward the big wall.

You should now be on the rope bridge (the one that would be above you if you to
ok the
other route). Continue to the large room but stay out of the light. Find and fl
ip the
switch to turn off the dart trap and allow access to the chute leading to the v
illage.
Claim Secret #4.

If you don't plan on backtracking, and choose instead to take the chute to the
village, then the last secret will be #2 and the secret in the village with be
#3.

Now that you have the extra secret from the Smuggler's Key Route you can now
decide if you want to take the chute directly to the village or return to the b
ridge
and collect the 3 Serpent Stones and finish the level the original way. If you
choose the chute you will end up in the village and can proceed from there.

If you choose to get the 3 Serpent Stones and all 4 secrets in this level then
return to the rope bridge and jump out to the pillar on the right then over to
the
ledge with Serpent Stone #1 and pull up onto the concealed ledge with the ammo
and the next secret. Continue your adventure from this point.


SOUTH PACIFIC ISLANDS - Crash Site

You will need to use the map to get across the swamp alive. Make sure to do
running jumps to clear all the danger zones. Just before you make the final jum
p
out of the swamp, turn left and jump and pull up into the small area to get Sec
ret
#1. Do a running jump from the lower corner to get back to the previous area
where you can make that final running jump out of the swamp. Make sure to grab
or you will come up short.

The fog up ahead hides some rocks and a deadly raptor. Kill the raptor before
climbing the rocks to the next area where another raptor attacks from the left.
When he is dead, take the right path until you reach the large tree. A dark pas
sage
is behind the tree and leads to more raptors and quite a few items. Flip the pa
ir of
switches to open the door and exit.

The next open area is infested with more raptors. Take the passage to the right
 of
the waterfall and follow it around to the right. Climb the ladder and backflip
to the
slope then jump to the branch and whip out those guns and shoot the raptor whic
h falls
into the water below - a tasty treat for the piranha. Jump up and grab the high
 branch
and carefully walk out onto the limb to get Secret #2. Now you can jump into th
e water
below and flip the switch. Don't worry about the piranha - they are still eatin
g that
raptor you fed them earlier.

Raptors are everywhere in the next passage. Kill them all as you make your way
to the
dark room with the box and many switches in it. Each time you flip the switch,
raptors
will rush into the room. Climb the box to kill them (or chase them off) from sa
fety
before flipping the next switch. After you have flipped all three switches, jum
p from
the box to the upper ledge where you can get Lt. Tuckerman's Key and kill more
raptors
waiting to ambush you.

Take the path back near the plane crash. Any raptors you didn't kill earlier wi
ll
now be attacking. Use grenades to kill multiple raptors if you can get them
bunched up in the hall. Find the small corridor by the plane and follow it to a
lookout over an open area. Some ammo is nearby so get it then head toward the
soldier. Soldiers are friendly UNLESS you fire on them first, so don't make any
more enemies than you already have.

As you near the soldier, a pair of raptors attack, so make your way back to the
ledge. Both the raptors and the soldier will assist you in the upcoming battle
with
the T-Rex (if you let them live). Plan your strategy then drop down and head fo
r
the T-Rex nest. Taking Commander Bishop's Key from the nest will trigger the
arrival of momma T-Rex.

You can try to fight this monster if you want or let the raptors and the soldie
r
distract her while you get those doors open. Either way, sprint towards the tor
ch
at the other end of this area and flip the switch to get you access to the seco
nd
switch. Run over and flip that switch to open the exit which lets you leave and
 also
lets any surviving raptors from the first part of this level IN! This isn't a b
ad thing
since they will more than likely attack the T-Rex instead of you. Even if you k
illed
everything prior to this area, one more raptor will join the fight.

Before leaving this battle zone, find the branch and jump and grab onto it from
the ledge below. Pull up and get Secret #3; Medkit, then jump over to the tree
and
jump to the landing to get some Flares before heading all the way back to the
plane wreck.

Locate the pillar in the dark area and jump and grab to the top of it where you
 can
then climb up the tree and monkey swing over to the trunk. Keep on swinging out
onto the long limb and drop off when the camera moves out for the big picture.
Climb down the wall and shimmy to the left and pull up into the crawlspace.

Now climb down the rock face into the small alcove then monkey swing to the doo
r
that overlooks the large room. A ledge below has a switch you need to flip to
access the second switch. Climb around and drop and grab and climb some more
until you can pull up onto the ledge with the second switch. Flip it, then retu
rn to
the first switch and flip that one again to access the third and final switch.

Now you need to monkey swing over to the wall near the dead end. Turn around
and climb down the wall to the bottom so Lara is hanging only by her hands. The
n
climb up her feet get on the ladder then backflip to the hidden ledge where the
third switch is. Flip the switch then jump back to the ladder and climb up to t
he
ledge on the right. Do a running jump to the slope near the middle of the large
 room
and grab the edge as you slide and shimmy right until you can backflip to the
central column. Then jump up to the monkey swing and exit into the new area wit
h
the plane.

Do a running jump to grab onto the limb then another running leap will put you
on
the plane. Go inside and kill the raptor and use the keys in the cockpit to tur
n on
the power. Now head further down into the plane and flip the switch to extend t
he
big gun and fire on the raptors who are doing battle with soldiers outside the
plane. The gun will also blast holes into the walls in the building across the
river.
When everything is safe, you can exit this level through the hole in the wall.


SOUTH PACIFIC ISLANDS - Madubu Gorge

Get ready to "shoot the rapids" in this exciting (and dangerous) level. Paddlin
g the
Kayak isn't too difficult once you figure out the moves. Make sure to practice
in
the calm water before hitting the rapids. Also remember that your back-paddle i
s
much more effective than any other move while in the boat. It will slow you dow
n
and help your turn sharper.

First check out the starting location and clean up the resident bats and the dr
agon
living in the tree. Another dragon is under the ledge in the gorge, so don't le
t him
surprise you. Climb down the pillars then jump over to the large block in the c
enter.
You can now jump over to the rocks and grab on. Shimmy over to the right and fl
ip
the switch to open a door back at the beginning of this level. You can now shim
my
to the left and continue, or if you want to get some extra ammo, do a daring
backflip from the slope back to the block in the middle of the river and return
 to
the start.

If you returned to the start, then look under the overhang and get the ammo.
Ignore the Kayak or you will miss out on the level's first pair of secrets. Ret
urn to
the middle rock and jump back to the cliff and shimmy left. Hang and drop and
grab on to the lower ledge. The monkey swing above will take you to the other s
ide
of the gorge, but you need to be following the trail along the shore. Jump over
 the
sloped area and land on the flat ledge near the opening in the rocks.

Head past the sealed door and do a safety drop to the ledge. Jump and do a
backflip over the razor grass and crawl into the dark crawlspace. A dragon
attacks with his poison breath as you continue to claim the Save Gem from the e
nd
of the passage. Watch for another spitting dragon on your way out.

Head to the stair and take care of any resistance you encounter. Push the butto
n
to open that sealed door then go check out the passage beyond the door to find
a
waterfall to the left. Behind the falls you will find some ammo and trigger Sec
ret
#1. A monkey swing provides access to the ledge above the slope.

Slide down the slope then jump and grab the pillar. Then run and jump to the
middle pillar and get the Save Gem before continuing in that same direction. Le
ave
this area and do a running leap and grab onto the face of the cliff. Hang on an
d
climb to the top and head right.

Backflip from the ledge to the slope and grab the edge as you fall off. Shimmy
to
the right and drop down to the platform to search the shack for Secret #2. Do a
running jump from the platform back to the main path. Grab while in midair so y
ou
duck and won't hit your pretty head on the rocks. Return to the trail you were
on
before you went after this last secret.

You should arrive at another Kayak behind a closed gate. The switch to open the
gate is under the water along with some nasty crocodiles. Kill the crocs then d
ive
in and flip the switch to open the gate then climb aboard for some whitewater
Kayaking!

Head through the gate after you have practiced all your moves. Back-paddle to s
low
yourself through the first stretch of whitewater and steer toward the pool to t
he
right. This small lagoon has a strong current of its own, but you should be abl
e to
fight it long enough to steer into the alcove and get the Save Gem.

Back on the river, head over the first falls and
keep to the right to miss a big rock and a trip line. Continue around the bend
and
start back-paddling when the current pulls you to the right. Trip the line to t
urn
off the deadly blades then cruise over the next waterfall. Watch the big rock t
o
the left and back-paddle to keep your speed from getting out of control.

Keep back-paddling as you steer towards the dark cave and follow it around to t
he
right. Avoid the trip lines and keep back-paddling to steer and monitor your sp
eed.
When you cross the final line, back-paddle and turn to make a sharp turn around
the corner. Now paddle forward and head through the narrow gap. Dodge the
patches of razor grass keeping to the left as you start the final run, then let
 the
current take you. You should end up in a large cavern.

Head to the cavern with a white waterfall and paddle behind the falls to find a
Save Gem and some other items on the shore you can get later. You should have
also just triggered Secret #3 so you don't have to worry about any more secrets
on this level. You can also get the Secret Chime by jumping over the falls to g
et
those items on shore later, but I assumed you wanted the Save Gem.

Now paddle down the green passage and put some distance between you and the
hungry crocodile so you can exit the Kayak and get to shore before he bites you
 in
half. Kill him from the safety of dry land then swing out over the cavern. Time
 your
monkey swing so you don't get torched by those flaming faces then jump to the
ledge and get the Rocket Launcher.

Go up the rock and follow the passage back to the cavern with the white waterfa
ll.
Do a running jump over the falls to get the ammo, then head back down the shore
and climb up onto the left ledge. Jump and grab onto the monkey swing and climb
out to the middle until you hear some bats. Turn left and drop down at the wall
 and
get the ammo from the shore on the left. Monkey swing back across the stream an
d
jump around the corner to the slope. Jump to the ledge then jump back and grab
the wall and climb up.

When you get outside, look to the right for a tunnel and enter. Dodge the rolli
ng
boulder by ducking and letting them roll overhead. When you enter the room with
the walkway, walk out a short distance then back off the walkway and shimmy
over the fire and pull up at the opposite end to avoid triggering the boulder.
Jump
over the flames in the hall and avoid the boulder that drops down rather quickl
y.

Back at the river you can run and jump to the ledge on the right and climb into
 the
crawlspace. Once you are through this tight squeeze you can stand and jump over
to the middle platform and do a running jump to the far ledge. Find and ride th
e
cable-slide down to the lower ledge and jump off to land on the ledge without
taking any damage.

Climb the textured wall surface and watch for a dragon to attack from the right
as you reach the top. Enter the hallway and flip the switch to pull the plug an
d
light a torch which also summons another dragon. Return all the way back to you
r
Kayak and head down the whirlpool. Try to stay to the edges, otherwise you will
drop to the bottom and probably die.

When you finally reach the lower area you will find an underwater switch that
opens the exit and dumps a pair of angry crocs into the water with you. Get out
 of
the water fast and kill them if you wish before leaving this level.


SOUTH PACIFIC ISLANDS - Temple of Puna


Our visit to the South Pacific Isles concludes with a small adventure into the
Temple of Puna. You will start this level already under attack by hostile nativ
es.
Kill them quickly to avoid their poison darts. If you do get hit, try to kill a
s many
other natives as you can before using that medkit. Head to the lower area and
check out the gate that leads to the final boss. Ignore it for now and make you
r
way into the larger room with the boulder on the ramp.

More natives attack as you make your way up the stairs.  Kill them all then whe
n you
reach the top, duck down and crawl into the next deadly room. Rolling blades cr
oss the
room making things rather difficult. Jump from the upper ledge and sprint as th
e blades
go by over to the right corner. Turn so your back is to the corner and you are
looking
out into the room. When the blades go by, move over to hit the switch and retur
n to the
safety of your corner before the blades return.

Now you need to make a mad dash for the opposite end of the room. Line up with
the axle
on the blades and jump the gap between a set of blades and then sprint to the n
ext corner.
Repeat this process to flip all four switches. You may find it easier to backfl
ip out of
the corner so you are already facing the switch. This will save your precious s
econds in
lining up your approach to the switch and getting back to the safety of the cor
ner.

The door will open after the forth button is pressed. Head to the safety of the
door and then time your run back into the room to get the Save Gem as the blade
s
roll off to the left. Roll as soon as your grab it and sprint back to the door.

Slide down the slope and into the next room where a spiked ceiling threatens ou
r
heroine. Three switches will stop the ceiling if you flip them fast enough, but
pulling out the box will do the same thing and with a lot less to panic about.
Now
that the ceilng is stopped, flip the switches at your leisure to open the door.
 Do a
safety drop down the hole and into the large chamber with the boulder trap.

Flip the switch to turn on the lights and seal the door. Sprint down the passag
e as
the boulder is released and rumbles toward you. Sprint through the door and tur
n
right making your way toward the Save Gem. Keep to the center otherwise the
floor will collapse and you should finally reach safety between the two ramps.
If
you missed the Save Gem you can crawl back and get it now.

Back in the hall you will be attacked by a native on the right and two more on
the
left. Start up the stairs and when it reverses direction you should be able to
spot
an opening high above in the darkness. Jump from the steps over to the wall and
shimmy to the left and into the opening to get Secret #1.

Finally, go through the gate and slide down the slope to enter the boss's chamb
er.
Puna will turn as you approach. When combat begins, KEEP MOVING. He can only
hit you if you are standing still. One hit and you are dead, so just keep jumpi
ng
around and you will be fine. Puna never gets out of his chair, making him an ea
sy
target. Every so often he will summon some of his friends to assist him. Always
 kill
them first before worrying about the boss. He will leave you alone as long as h
is
help is still fighting for him. When Puna is no more, grab the Medkit from the
ledge
and get the relic.

If you have been playing the game in the same order as I wrote this solve then
you
should have all four relics at this time. Pack your bags and get ready for a tr
ip to
Antarctica. Brrrrrrrr........


ANTARCTICA - Antarctica

A brisk swim starts off the final part of your adventure. Don't stay in the wat
er
for long periods of time or hypothermia will set in. A new meter will show you
how
long you can stay in the icy water. Ammo is nearby if you want to take a dive t
o get
it. Exit onto the shore and follow the coast past the locked hut. The level's f
inal
secret is in that hut, but you will need to get a key first.

Jump over the water near the ship then take a quick swim and pull up to the icy
ledge. Another swim puts you back on land near the front of the ship where you
can climb the cliff to find the monkey swing above. Cross over then drop to the
ledge and look for a hole in the ship's deck to get inside. Once inside you wil
l have
to battle some angry sailors as you make your way to the mechanical room.

A switch on the wall to the left of the machine will open a trapdoor. Drop thro
ugh
and continue down the corridors killing the attacking sailors. When you reach t
he
next junction you should spot a hole in the ceiling to the left which leads out
 of
the ship. Remember it, but continue toward the orange pipe and kill another sai
lor
before dropping through the trapdoor. Continue fighting off all these sailors a
s
you head to the window where you should be able to spot a Zodiac (small
motorboat) outside. Push the button to drop it into the water.

Now return to the hole in the ceiling and climb up and head to the rear of the
ship.
Head right when you reach the deck and follow the cliff. You should spot an
opening in the cliff you can jump into to get Secret #1. Then make your way to
the
rear of the ship and jump into the Zodiac. This boat is even nicer than your
speedboat from Venice. Maneuver the craft around the ship, past the cliff and
down the channel past the hut then get out when you reach the ledge inside the
tunnel.

Light a flare and then slide, jump and grab onto the ledge to check out the
crawlspace. Head to the right to get Secret #2; a Medkit then follow the
crawlspace back and drop into the water. While you are wet you may as well get
the ammo beneath you before climbing back into the boat.

Pilot the Zodiac deeper into the tunnel until it opens up and you arrive at a g
ate.
Exit to the short and take care of the resistance you encounter. Monkey swing a
cross
the bars and head right at the junction before dropping down when the path ends
.
Continue down the passage killing the guards and guard dogs until you reach a b
uilding
with an opening in the side. Press the button on the wall before moving off to
the left
and circle around the building.

Around the corner is a hole that you need to drop down into. Swim to the left a
nd
get out quickly near the fuel valves. Wade through the water (you won't take
damage) over to the ladder and climb up to the generator room. The room is lock
ed
up so head outside and follow the path around to the left. Continue past the
kennels and follow the path where you will meet a small army of goons and some
annoying pit traps. Grab the ammo under the bridge by climbing down and
exchanging a bit of gunfire. Then head back to the hole you originally dropped
down to reach the fuel valves.

Enter the nearby cave and kill more guards as you make your way to the doors
which will slam shut and try to kill you. Do a quick roll to get through the do
ors and
continue killing the bad buys as you head upstairs to get the Crowbar. Return t
o
the area with the hole leading to the valves and backtrack down the dark passag
e.
Climb up into the raised building and flip the switch then pry open the door wi
th
the crowbar. Drop down and check out the map which shows which valves need to
be adjusted to continue.

Return to the Generator Room and flip the switch to start the machines, then re
turn
to the kennels and take care of the dogs before entering the building. Press al
l
three buttons and get the Gate Key from the desk then return all the way back t
o
the monkey swing where you parked the Zodiac. Go to the building you opened wit
h
the crowbar and use the Gate Key and press the button. More guards will arrive
as
you leave the building, so be ready for them.

Get back in the boat and continue down the passage. You should spot a landing t
o the
left.  Park the boat and look for a hidden alcove below and to the right that c
ontains
the Hut Key.  Hop back in the Zodiac and retrace your route all the way back to
 the
beginning of the level where the hut is. Use the key to get Secret #3; Flares a
nd a
Save Gem.

Now head all the way back through the waterway, through the gate, and exit to
shore when you spot the cabin. Fight the guards as you make your way to the top
.
When you reach the cabin door you will exit this level.


ANTARCTICA - RX-Tech Mines

Proceed down the hall and go right running through each of the gates until you
hear a second clicking noise. Turn around to find an open passage and head out
to
meet your first flamethrower guy. They aren't openly hostile unless you attack
first, so don't fire on them unless they fire on you FIRST.

Head to the first room where three mine carts and turn on the lights in the con
trol
room. Kill the mutant and watch out for their poison even after their death. Cl
imb
to the top of the control room and drop off the back to shimmy over to the ladd
er.
Climb down the ladder so your feet are on the bottom rung and backflip with a
twist to grab on behind you. Enter the small room to get Secret #1.

Head back to the previous room and get in the middle mine cart and take your fi
rst
spin around the tracks. Try to keep your speed up for the approaching jump by
leaning into the turns and keeping off the brake. Hit the track switch as you g
o by
and exit the cart when it finally stops.

Crawl under the drills and search the crack over in the left wall then head out
 and
around to the left. Kill a new species of mutant then drop down to the walkway
before doing another safety drop to the next lower ledge. Shimmy along each of
the cracks as far as you can go before dropping to the next one and reversing
direction. When you reach the left side of the lowest crack you can pull up int
o a
passage and move forward. More enemies await in the passage to be careful as yo
u
make your way to the large open area.

A new Crowbar rests on the metal ledge and more mutants are lurking about this
area. Find the crawlspace in the wall near the mutants and investigate. Go to t
he
rocks on the right, then jump over to the cliff and shimmy over to the crawlspa
ce
and flip the switch inside. This opens up the door to the next secret that you
can
get in a few minutes.

Now proceed up the snowy slopes, finding all the flat areas so you can make you
r way
out of this area. Enter the passage and duck to avoid the obstacles and machine
s, then
head up the slope and kill the mutant waiting for you at the top.  Return to th
e mine
cart and flip the track switch so you can return to the main room with the othe
r carts.
Use the crowbar to open the stuck door and get the Lead Acid Battery.

Make a quick side-trip back to the area where you got the first secret. A new d
oor
is now open in that same area and leads to Secret #2. Return to the main room a
nd
get ready for your next ride.

Get on the lower mine cart and head left building up lots of speed for the big
jump
coming up. Make sure duck under the various obstacles that threaten to decapita
te
our heroine. When the cart comes to a halt, you can hop out and head down the
passage to the lower hall. Kill all the attacking mutants before continuing and
 make
sure to search the crawlspace under the walkway with the steam. Crawl through
and kill the mutant and search the pool by the crane. The Winch Starter is on t
he
bottom and you need to swim fast to survive the freezing water.

Return to the central mine cart room and take the final ride on the top mine ca
rt.
When the ride is over you should be at a crane that is holding a mini-sub. Stic
k the
battery in the appropriate slot and use the Winch Starter on the controls to lo
wer
the sub into the water. Dive in and get into the sub. You need to reach the sur
face
of the next safe area and continue down between the lights and around to the
right. Use Medkits when needed as your health will certainly be affected before
you reach dry land.

Do not attack the flamethrower guy. Ignore him and drop to the ledge below the
bridge and watch for mutants who are sneaking up behind you. In the chasm, keep
jumping back between the ledges until you reach the corner of the lower ledge
which also triggers Secret #3. Retrace your steps back to the bridge and jump u
p
and grab and pull up to enter the small building and end this level.


ANTARCTICA - Lost City of Tinnos

Explore the Lost City when you first arrive then head to the upper level via th
e
nearby ladder. Flip the switch to open the door below then jump to the central
column to get the Save Gem. Drop down and enter the door and get the Uli key
from the niche off the short hall. Use this key near the black grate in the
courtyard to open the next area.

The ledge near the first switch you flipped has a second switch. Flip it then c
limb
up and back into the building and cross over to the sloped hall and head down t
o
find and flip another switch. You should now have access to a row of five switc
hes
(Midas Flashback!) so hit the proper combo (1-2-5) to access the next area near
the broken bridge. Another Save Gem awaits as well as giant wasps.

Climb the ledges by the Save Gem then jump over to the bridge and find the
invisible ledges that lead to the wasps' nest. Do a running jump to get inside
the
nest and claim Secret #1 while trying not to fall in the hole. Return to the br
idge
and jump over the break and follow the passage out and to the right. Don't forg
et
to grab that medkit on the left as you leave.

Enter the green passage and kill everything that moves before arriving at the n
ext
tricky sequence. Swinging pots of fiery coals sway back and forth. Run past the
m
making sure not to get burned. Enter the next area and head over to the ledge o
n
the left to kill more wasps then continue in that direction. Further down the h
all is
another switch which summons three new monsters. When they are dead, proceed
down to the next switch which opens a crawlspace outside. Use the pillar to acc
ess
this new area while dodging a few traps along the way.

This next area has a multitude of switches that raise and lower various platfor
ms,
plus one of the switches is timed and leads to the next secret. Drop to the wal
kway
and find the switch on the left wall. This is the switch to access the secret A
FTER
you get the door open.

Flip the switch on the ground floor then climb to the ledge that raises up. Fli
p that
switch and move on to the next ledge until you can spot the platform under the
walkway near the entrance. Make your way to this platform then jump up and
monkey swing using the bottom of the walkway. Head over and flip the switch her
e
to open the exit. Now return to the walkway and flip the secret switch.

Immediately after flipping this switch, run back down the hall and drop off the
walkway to the ledge on the left. Do a safety drop to the floor then move down
the
hall to flip the next switch (which starts a timed door leading to the next sec
ret).
Run towards the column of light and head up the stairs to the right of the brig
ht
light and follow the passage down and to the left. Return past those swinging c
oals
and head across the bridge. Jump off to the right and slide down the cliff to t
he
bottom and get inside the door before it shuts. Inside is Secret #2; a Save Gem
.
Flip the switch a couple times to get back out, then return to the room with th
e
column of light.

The light marks the center to the next four rooms. Each room contains a puzzle
dealing with one of the four elements and when solved, will reward you with a
mask. Get all four masks and use them on the statues below to open the way to t
he
boss. The Earth room is the easiest of the four and contains this level's final
secret so we'll do that one first.

Keep to the right as you enter the Earth room which is full of quicksand. Get o
ut
onto solid ground after you pass the markings on the right wall. Take the first
Oceanic Mask and watch as the ceiling starts to crumble. Getting back is a bit
more difficult as the floor isn't as easy to navigate. Hop along the ledges on
the
wall and flip the switch to access the final secret (after you leave) then make
 one
more leap around the corner to the sloped ledge and exit this room.

Return to the hall with the swinging coals and you should now see a block you c
an
run and climb onto to get the FINAL SECRET in Tomb Raider 3; Secret #3. Now
return to the column of light and finish the remaining three rooms.

Let's do the Water room next. Start swimming and try to swim past the blades in
the direction they are moving to minimize the damage. Swim down through the fir
st
of the blades to reach the clock and head to the left alcove to catch your brea
th
and flip a switch. Head back to the clock and go through the hole to the right
and
up into a new area. Get more air and flip the next switch to open another door
revealing the Oceanic Mask for this area. Get the mask and flip the next switch
before returning to the clock. Fill up your lungs once more in the left alcove
before going through the hole at the bottom of the clock. The current will pull
 you
along into a shallow tunnel of water and eventually the exit.

The Wind room is just an annoying maze. Take the first right then go left, then
right and take the next left to the intersection. Head down the angled passage
to
the right but take the first left until you reach the crystal on the right. Tak
e a left
at the crystal and follow the hall to the next junction and turn right into the
 wider
hall. Head up the ramp to the left and start jumping back and forth between the
ledges to trigger the log trap. Make your way to the other end to claim the Oce
anic
Mask for this area.

The Fire room will bring back nightmares from the Midas level of the original
Tomb Raider game, but never fear - this puzzle is much easier. Check out the ma
p
above your head which shows you the layout of this place then get ready to hop
some blocks. There are also some invisible ledges which are made partially visi
ble
with the flaming dragon heads. Your goal is the ledge with the switch which wil
l
allow you to obtain the final Oceanic Mask (assuming you did the rooms in their
written order). If things get too hot, remember you can hang from the ledges to
regain your composure, but getting up and onto the next ledge in time is very
difficult.

Return to the lower room and place the four masks on the statues then claim the
final Uli Key from the pool room and use it to open the nearby hall which leads
 to
the Meteorite Cavern.


ANTARCTICA - Meteorite Cavern

Fighting the final boss isn't too bad when you know his secret. His most powerf
ul
weapon is his Death Ray which will "Kill You - No Questions Asked - Immediately
!".
He also never misses, so the trick is to never let him fire it, and he won't as
 long as
you keep the meteor between you and him. So keep your distance and circle to st
ay
on the opposite side as the spidery boss and keep firing.

To kill this monster you will have to collect the four meteor fragments from ar
ound
this room.  You will have to stun the Spider-monster long enough to take each p
iece.
Do this by firing on him until he freezes then get a piece and repeat.  Always
go for
the nearest piece and one that is in a direction AWAY from the boss, AND opposi
te the
meteor. This means you may have to do some preliminary maneuvering to get him i
n the
proper location before you stun him.

The boss moves in a counter-clockwise direction around this room (usually), so
after you retrieve a fragment, make sure to head right when exiting the alcoves
.
When you have all four pieces the meteor will drop into the pool and you can no
w
actually do DAMAGE to the boss. Finish him off!

Now that things are a bit more quiet, climb the ladder to the top. Go past the
carved face then drop down and backflip to the hand of the statue. Jump over to
the middle ledge and follow the passage to the left. You arrive high above the
cavern and can monkey swing over to the next ledge. From there, jump to the roc
ky
ledge and climb up and outside. Slide down the snowy slope and turn right.

Kill any resistance that is still hanging around before pushing the button on t
he
wall. Head through the gate to spot an approaching helicopter. Approach the
helicopter to end the level and Lara's main adventure in Tomb Raider 3.


BONUS LEVEL - All Hallows

It all boils down to this - the BONUS LEVEL - accessible only if you got all 59
secrets (or used the Cheat Code). Save your game after the final level then loa
d up
this final test of your endurance. Keep in mind - you start this level with no
inventory and you MUST be at FULL HEALTH later on in the level, so be careful.

Start by climbing the metal ledges and make your way to the center structure. D
o a
running jump to the slope and get the Flares then jump to the center platform a
nd
monkey swing out over the cathedral ceiling and drop. CRASH! I told you you
needed to be 100% healthy. Limp over to the Medkit on the landing and fix
yourself up. Get the next batch of Flares from the purple platform then move to
the walkway above the bookshelf.

A switch is in the alcove above the bookcase. Flip it then drop down to the flo
or
and climb up and jump to the central structure then do a running jump and grab
to
the ledge and shimmy left to flip the next switch in the upper alcove. A hall s
hould
now be open back on the floor level.

Head down this hall and run across the floor as it falls out beneath/behind you
and flip the switch at the end. Return to the main room via the monkey swing wh
ich
takes you over the spikes below. Return to the bookcase and get on the ledge so
you can monkey swing to the left. Drop and immediately grab so you can pull up
to
the small area at the other end of the monkey swing and climb above the
cable-slide.

Get the Vault Key then take a ride down the slide. Make sure to drop off just a
s
you slide into the light to land safely. Pull up onto the area above the pillar

then drop and hang off the other side to spot an open door. Take the monkey swi
ng
across as you catch on fire then drop into the water ahead to put out the flame
s.
Swim past the piston and push the button then grab the Medkit from the ledge to

the right.

Above the ladder, do a quick roll and grab the edge to trigger (but not fall th
rough)
the trap door. Jump across the hole and head to the vault. Use the key to open
it up
and shoot out the grates before dropping into the water. When you finally surfa
ce
you will find a guard dog and his master. Kill them and explore the final area.
Head towards the items to end this secret level.
