Note: This is a Walkthrough. This is not a simple 'FAQ'. I only create a FAQ
for a game that I truly love. So if you see a guide written by me on a specific
game, then you know that I have put my heart and soul into the guide because I
basically got hooked on the game and it has a special place next to my heart.
So every guide that I produce WILL get to v1.00 without fail, unless a car hits
me and I die of course...

OK well welcome to my third FAQ so far! Hope you enjoy the game as much as I
have. I started this just after someone requested a guide on
www.tombraiderchronicles.com. So here is my guide. Whether it is good or not is
not up to me to decide - but you. I make this with every effort that I have. If
I come up short then there is nothing I can do! Anyway, onward and upward!

Well the reason I am writing this (and yes I am still writing this even as you
read it - believe me I am a perfectionist) and any other FAQs that I have
created, is because I get a good old buzz when someone benefits from something
that I have written.
Mission statement: To make my FAQ/Guide/Walkthrough as good, as in-depth and as
thorough as the first FAQ that I ever read. The Unofficial C&C Strategy FAQ
written by the great Roger Wong.

0.10 010406     - First version. Bare bones!
- Creation of Walkthrough.
- Basics are added and the guide is formatted to fit the game.

- Added some extra areas that have no real purpose (I imagine
that these areas contain secrets in the full game)
- Added Moves list. Almost complete.

extremely long wait.

I will not be adding things to this section that you need to play the game
anyway - jump run vault and climb etc. Note with combos: Most of the combos can
have different elements of the other combo moves intermixed near the end. In
fact you can do this simply to keep the combo going indefinitely. Although who
would be stupid enough to try that.
A big thanks goes out to "Lynne M" for providing me with correct terminology
for the moves that Lara performs. I will provide both my interpretations (for
those like me who have no idea about anything gymnastics and for those who are
smarter than I am :] )
The more difficult and less known ones I shall be providing a video link so
that players may see what the move actually looks like.
#JUMP-FLIP WITH LEGS TUCKED# - Front Tuck.
Double tap the jump key. Increases jump length slightly.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
COMBO +JUMP-FLIP WITH LEGS TUCKED-FLIP WITH NO ARMS+
Tap the jump key 4 times. Looks cool.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
COMBO +JUMP-FLIP WITH LEGS TUCKED-FLIP WITH NO ARMS X2+ - Front Tuck with Front
Layout.
Tap the jump key 6 times. Looks even cooler.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
COMBO +JUMP-FLIP WITH LEGS TUCKED-FLIP WITH NO ARMS X2-SPINNING SOMERSAULT+ -
Front Tuck - Front Layout - Front Twisting Layout.
Tap the jump key repeatedly. Looks wicked.
Video Link:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mz0uECneocI
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
#ROLL#
Hit the roll button whilst running forward. Useful for when you need to gain a
metre or two very quickly.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
COMBO +ROLL-HANDSPRING+
Tap roll button 3 times in quick succession whilst running forward. Useful for
gaining more than a metre or two fast.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
COMBO +ROLL-HANDSPRING-CARTWHEEL+
Lara wilL perform a roll, then a handspring and finally a cartwheel to be
facing the other direction. Whilst running, tap the roll key twice, then whilst
in the handspring press backwards and roll.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
COMBO +ROLL-HANDSPRING-CARTWHEEL-HANDSTAND SOMERSAULT X2-SPINNING SOMERSAULT+
Do the same as above but will perform 2 handstand somersaults and a spinning
somersault to finish facing the other direction.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
COMBO +ROLL-HANDSPRING-SLOW SPINNING somersault+
Tap roll whilst moving to start the roll, then roll again to do a handspring,
then in the middle of the handspring press backwards and jump. Lara will do a
roll, handspring then a spinning somersault similar to others but only spins
once around so that she ends up facing the other direction.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
COMBO +ROLL-HANDSPRING-SLOW SPINNING somersault-BACKWARDS somersault
X2-SPINNING somersault+
Same as above but keep pressing jump after the last one. Lara will do two
backwards somersaults then a full spinning somersault all backwards. NICE!!!
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
COMBO +ROLL-HANDSPRING-HANDSTAND somersault+
Tap roll button 6 times in quick succession whilst running forward. Useful for
gaining a fair few metres fast.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
COMBO +ROLL-HANDSPRING-HANDSTAND somersault X3-SPINNING somersault+
Tap roll button 12 times in quick succession whilst running forward. No more
moves can be added to this. Also note that because no moves can be added to the
end of this, just tap the roll button quickly until she performs it. Useful for
moving a great distance fast.... and for entertaining the folks back home.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
#SWAN DIVE#
Tap the jump key then the roll button in quick succession whilst running. Do
this like a 1-2 punch in boxing. NOTE: Don’t attempt this outside of these two
scenarios - diving into water or diving to a level the same height of TWO
levels below. Doing so will kill poor Lara. Do this before the previous one for
a wicked combo move!
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
COMBO +SWAN DIVE-ROLL-HANDSPRING-HANDSTAND somersault X3-SPINNING somersault+
Tap the roll key repeatedly. This is the best combo in the game.
Video Link:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yKNM-fT3nsA
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
COMBO +SWAN DIVE-ROLL-HANDSPRING-CARTWHEEL+
Lara will perform a swan dive, then a roll, then a handspring, then finally
perform a cartwheel and be facing the other direction. Do this, while running
forward, press jump, then immediately roll, then whilst in the roll press roll
again. Whilst in the handspring press roll again at the same time as you press
backwards. Lara will be facing the other direction.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
#BACKFLIP#
Whilst guns are out, hold the backwards key and hit the jump key. NOTE: Lara
can only do this with guns out! Yes I know I hate that too.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
#SIDEFLIP# (Both directions)
Whilst guns are out, hold down either side key and hit the jump key. NOTE: Lara
can only do this with guns out!
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
#FORWARD FLIP#
Whilst guns are out, hold down the forward key and hit the jump key. NOTE: Lara
can only do this with guns out!
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
#FAST HAND OVER HAND SHIMMY#
Whilst hanging from her fingertips and your looking at her back, hold down one
of the side keys and press the interact or E key in time with Lara’s movements.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
#BACKWARDS VAULT-HANDSPRING#
Whilst guns are out, hit the back key and tap the roll button. NOTE: This can
only be performed when guns are out.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
#SIDEWAYS VAULT-ROLL#
Whilst guns are out, hold one of the side keys, then tap the roll button. NOTE:
This can only be performed when guns are out.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
#SLOW MOTION POUNCE AND GUN#
This one is hard to use but comes in handy. If you cant get it first go, give
up! You expend too much health otherwise from weapon hits. When Lara is within
jumping range of an enemy that is right in front of Lara, jump and as Lara is
about to land on them, jump again and Lara will enter slow motion, tomb raider
style. You will have locked Lara’s guns on them so just fire Lara’s guns to
waste em. Lara will perform a roll when Lara hit the ground. Its pretty cool
and very useful at times when you need to take them down fast. I do believe you
are able to kill them faster and with less rounds than normal because of where
Lara’s hitting them.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
#SLOW MOTION DIVING POUNCE AND GUN#
Just as above but instead of pressing jump, you press the crouch or roll key
and Lara will dive through the air and give Lara a shot at their back.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
#SLOW MOTION GROUND SLIDING TRIP AND GUN#
This one is a little more useful. Whilst guns are out, run at Lara’s opponent
and as you get within jumping range, press roll and Lara will slide underneath
and trip the enemy soldier. Pretty impressive.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
#SLOW MOTION ENEMY VAULT AND GUN#
This move need to be performed right next to an enemy for it to work. First be
right next to an enemy and face them. Have Lara’s guns out and then press jump
key. Then whilst Lara is in the air, fire Lara’s weapon for an easy slow motion
kill.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
#TURN AROUND ON BAR#
Whilst at the top of the swing on a bar, press and hold the other direction.
Simple.
Video Link:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=82OW-QmXOCk
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
#TKATCHEV MOVE# - The Tkatchev move is named after Alexander Vasilyevich
Tkachev as he created the move and used it during the Olympic Games and
thereafter has been used heavily ever since.
When at the top of the swing on a bar, hold down the E key and press the
opposite direction. This will cause Lara to turn mid flight, then do some weird
looking maneuver where she disconnects, splits her legs then connects again,
whilst swinging the other direction. Very weird. I guess the idea behind this
is a speedy turn around maybe?
Video Link:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wPUNQrfwXKE
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
#FREESTYLE#
While at the surface of water, hold down forward and hit the interact or E key
repeatedly. Cool! She can even swim real fast.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
#UNDERWATER BREASTSTROKE#
While underwater, hold down forward and press the interact or E key repeatedly.
This makes swimming much faster.

This section will contain a detailed run down of all the weapons featured in
Tomb Raider Legend.
TBC
NOTE: These are only my interpretations of the various weapons. I have no real
idea what the weapons are. Maybe someone in the know can point out to me what
the weapons are exactly. I would be very greatful for any input towards this
endeavour. The following four weapons descriptions have been submitted from
"Sam Vere", obviously a well learned person when it comes to guns.
#Pistols#
Heckler & Koch USP Match (compare in-game name - RGB Mach 5) - the
large counterweights/compensators are distinctive. Normally available in 9mm
(15 round magazine) or .45 (12 round magazine). Since they are listed as having
'extended' mags that could mean they are .45s - unless they are referring to
after the upgrade...
#SMG#
One of the H&K MP5/MP10/MP40 family (9mm, 10mm & .40 S&W respectively)
(there are so many varients it isn't funny - laregly because it is a modular
design)
#Rifle#
M16/M4 carbine. Probably the latter simply because that seems to be the
most popular in games nowadays.)
#Shotgun#
Anyone's guess. Definitely not a SPAS-12 (Very distinctive) or SPAS-15
(Magazine-fed semi-auto shotgun that looks worryingly like an oversized M16/M4)
#Fixed Machine Gun Emplacement#
#RPG# - Removed from game.
#Grenade Launcher#
#Grenades#
#Excalibur#
#Soul Reaver# (This is from Crystal Dynamics' other game series - Legacy of
Kain - Soul Reaver)

NOTE: This level will contain the rewards but the rewards are not available in
the demo. One other thing, there is two leopards that are not in the demo but
is in the full. You will be noted about them.
[INTRODUCTION]
We start off on the side of a mountain, climbing the way up to the ruins. After
a short passage where she climbs, talks, climbs some more and finally jumps
onto a ledge. We are standing in front of the ruins of some place.
[LEVEL BEGINS]
OK First up, go up the ramp right in front of Lara and jump to the other side.
/%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%\
Just before you cross the broken bridge, go left of the pillar in front of
Lara, and you will find the first bronze reward. NICE!
\%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%/
-{Bronze 1/10}-
/%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%\
Look to Lara’s right and you will notice in the cave there, is the second
bronze reward. Grab it.
\%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%/
-{Bronze 2/10}-
Turn left and notice a pool with a waterfall. Do a perfect swan dive into the
pool (well you don’t have to if you don’t want to!) and turn to Lara’s left.
There should be a ledge, climb up onto it. "Ahh that was lovely!" she will say.
A short cinematic where Lara looks at her PDA.
[FIRST BOULDER]
Immediately in front of Lara is another ledge. Climb it too. Notice that there
is a big ass boulder in Lara’s way? Grab it and move it forward. Now back up
and jump onto the outcropping. Turn right and you will see two vines, one right
in front of Lara. Climb that one and get to the correct height and jump across
to the other vine and finally onto the next outcropping. Now in front of Lara
is a rope dangling from a tree. Perform a running jump and Lara will grab onto
it.
/#############################################################################\
When Lara are on the rope, turn to Lara’s left and notice another cave. Swing
into it and continue down the cave which turns to Lara’s right. Soon enough,
you will see the first silver reward, sitting just before a drop, which will
place Lara on the path described below.
\#############################################################################/
-{Silver 1/5}-
Swing from the rope a few times and jump through the waterfall.
[BEHIND THE WATERFALL]
Turn Lara’s light on so you can see and start walking into the cave. Go around
the U bend and come to a small jump. Take a running jump and arrive at the
ledge. Lara will now look at the small ledge that stretches out across the side
of the mountain. Jump onto this and move along it until you get to a small gap
where an outcropping awaits. Jump onto it and remember this spot.
[STREAM]
Now start up the stream and once you get close to the boulder in front of Lara,
it will start to roll back with an intention of crushing Lara. Go back to the
place you remembered and watch as the boulder flies off the ledge and into the
pool below. Run up this stream again and you will notice a branch across the
path. Just before the branch is a small ramp on the right. Go up the ramp and
jump onto the branch. Swing and jump onto the next branch then onto the ledge,
then move right and jump to the next ledge.
[FIRST MERCENARY]
A short cinematic will show where Lara is shocked to find someone is after her
but cannot find her. He will wander off up the stream and Lara can then get up
from the ledge. Get out Lara’s trusty guns and go waste some fool. Continue up
the way and you will come to a fallen tree. Go back a bit and see a bright
white ledge that you can grab onto. It is on two sides of a cliff. Jump on this
and move around the side and then vault up onto the outcropping. Ahh another
boulder to push you say! Yup! Push the boulder onto the fallen tree below and
watch as a branch is brought into the air, perfect height for swinging! Jump
down from the ledge.
/%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%\
Just to Lara’s left is the third bronze reward.
\%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%/
-{Bronze 3/10}-
Jump onto that branch you just propped up. Swing a bit and launch onto the
rocks on top of the waterfall.
[SECOND WATERFALL]
You will see a shiny metal circular door. Grapple it and give it a yank. It
will come down and shatter. Walk into the door and a cinematic will play
showing two guys musing over a cigarette smoking monkey. Lara will sneak into
the area and get prepared for an attack. Whip out Lara’s guns and blast em. If
you don’t want to be hurt unnecessarily, jump and dodge and move about. Once
they are sucking in water, heal Lara and grab the medic kits.
[THIRD WATERFALL]
OK now jump onto the rock just in front of the next waterfall, and grab the
ledge there. Either race to the left of the ledge or simple let it crumble and
cause Lara to fall, then get back on it. It don’t matter. Jump to the left hand
side of the ledge and then backwards jump onto the horizontal pole. Swing and
then launch onto the ledge. Climb around the side and then jump onto the next
ledge and vault Lara up onto the platform. Turn left and go round the bend and
notice the handy dandy rope ready for you to swing from. Use it to swing to the
slight right of the waterfall and onto the ledge behind it.
/%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%\
Just to the left, behind the waterfall, and slightly to the left is a small
cave, with the fourth bronze reward in it. Nab it and then drop back down a
level and move across and back to the right of the waterfall as you are looking
at it.
\%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%/
-{Bronze 4/10}-
Turn around and see two horizontal poles sticking out from the wall.
[HORIZONTAL POLES X2]
Jump and swing onto those and onto the far ledge. Get Lara’s guns out and waste
the guy around the corner. Now notice the silver shiny disc above the stream?
To grapple that jump twice whilst moving toward it. Swing a bit and then jump
onto the far ledge (well if you were moving fast enough then you don’t have to
swing at all). Continue down the corridor and around the bend to the right,
then left and find an open area.
/%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%\
Just as you loose Lara from the grapple swing, you will turn right down the
corridor. Just on the bend, if you look up you will see the fifth bronze
reward, but no way to get it! Ahh that’s what the mighty grapple is for! Move
back a little from it and chuck Lara’s grapple at it. Give it a yank and hey
presto!
\%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%/
-{Bronze 5/10}-
Once you enter the vale, a cinematic will play with Lara being coy about the
ruins. Then the "bloody tourists" arrive and spoil it. Ok time for some
payback.
[BLOODY TOURISTS]
See the rocks immediately in front of Lara? Hit the E or interact key to bring
out Lara’s guns and shoot at the rocks aka environmental hazards to cause them
to roll down the hill and crush the two guys walking down below. Time it well
and the rocks will kill both, time it poorly and you will have to waste the
second or both of them with Lara’s guns when you get down there. Now, once
they are taken care of, slide down the hill and grab the medic kits from the
dead guys if you need em. You only need to walk over the top of them to pick
them up. You wont pick up more than you can carry so if you walk over them and
they still sit there, then you have the maximum.
/%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%\
Just as you get down from the slide, if you look to Lara’s forward right, you
will see a small alcove in the rock. Go in there and just behind a rock is the
sixth bronze reward. Saweet!
\%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%/
-{Bronze 6/10}-
Ok now you have two choices - Go around to the right of the pillar on the left,
waste a guy and jump up to the ledge on Lara’s left or you could go up the ramp
to the left of the pillar and waste the guy standing there and then the guy
down below. I find going up the ramp much easier and faster. You can pick up
the submachine gun if you want - its not bad but horribly inaccurate.
/%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%\
Just before you jump onto the rope, jump down and go to Lara’s right. You will
see a small corridor with a bridge above. Continue down this little corridor
and what do ya know? The seventh bronze reward!! OMFG! What a find! Once you
are done, go back up to the ledge you were on.
\%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%/
-{Bronze 7/10}-
Now looking over the edge of the ledge you see the obvious rope that will lead
you to the obvious ledge you need to swing to. Do this now but climb up a bit
to ensure you are high enough to land on the opposing ledge. Once onto the next
platform you will confronted with another slide down to the lower level. Be
ready to whip out Lara’s guns and dispose of a fair few baddies, so get out
Lara’s newly acquired submachine gun.
[THIRD MERCENARY GROUP]
As soon as you are down, turn right and start wasting guys left and right with
Lara’s submachine gun. A cool trick is the pillar on Lara’s right, as you are
crossing the small bridge. Hit that with the E or interact key and bingo! A ton
of rock lands on the mercenaries heads, killing one or two instantly. Whilst
doing this, keep trying to make Lara as hard to hit as possible by doing jumps
and such whilst shooting. When you run out of ammo, you will auto switch to
Lara’s hand guns. Keep it up past the car until all are disposed of. Grab
either the submachine gun ammo from the dropped guns or pick up the assault
rifle. I like the power of the assault rifle.
[STAIRS BESIDE CAR]
Option 1: Go up the stairs and a short cinematic will play with two guys firing
a round at you, barely missing you, Lara pulls her guns out to fire back but
the two "amateurs" run off into the tunnel only to be sliced and diced
"that
sounded permanent". Ok, now note that slicing sound whilst you watch the
cinematic. This gives a hint as to what lays ahead.
Option 2: Instead of the stairs, look to the right for a small platform leading
to a series of platforms that you can jump onto. Jump all the way up and then
go into the corridor. This only bypasses the cinematic but hey it don’t matter
in the end.
/#############################################################################\
As you are looking at the stairs, take a look on the left side and you will
just see a couple levels of big steps. Just up two steps and have a look at the
brick wall to Lara’s left. Look beyond it and you will see a little speck of
silver. Could it be? Yes it is! The second silver reward!!
\#############################################################################/
-{Silver 2/5}-
[SPINNING SPIKES PUZZLE]
As you walk up the stairs and into the corridor, the floor will slide off the
sides and the spinning spikes will reveal a gruesome death to all who would
like to try them out. Now remember the double jump grapple that you performed
earlier? Do this on the very edge and before you start swinging, hold down the
E or interact key to gain some height if necessary. Make sure you give Lara the
best possible swing before launching off and attempting to land onto the solid
floor in the distance. I missed once and I don’t like hearing the horrible
slicing when your character is the one being diced. Once you have made it past
the death pit, continue onwards down the corridor and turn right.
/%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%\
Just at the end of the corridor past the gruesome death pit, if you look to
Lara’s left, you will notice a small hole in the wall. Go through this and
yeehaw! The eighth bronze reward!
\%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%/
-{Bronze 8/10}-
[CHAINS]
Anyway once you have entered into the room with the unusual things on chains
you will get in information cinematic showing you where you need to go. Either
walk to jump onto the bare chain and start climbing quickly. Look around whilst
climbing for the closest available bare chain, and look at it. Then hit the
jump key to jump to it and then continue climbing. Jump back to the original
chain once it is free again, then onto the ledge that is now at the right
height. Go down the small area and find a lower room with a single chain. To
save health, jump onto it and simply slide all the way down.
[SINGLE CHAIN ROOM]
Turn right around and notice the opening in the side of the wall behind you. Go
through this and turn right to find a nice little pool of water to do another
perfect swan dive! Once in the water turn right and swim through to the opening
in the surface and go up to catch a breath.
/%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%\
Get out of the water, and behind a small little wall will be the ninth bronze
reward. Cool, brilliant, wonderful...
\%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%/
-{Bronze 9/10}-
Turn around in the water and notice the bright sand on the bottom right - we
want to go that way. Duck under and swim down that underwater passage and turn
right. Come up and out of the water onto the stone floor. Go down this passage,
turn right. Stop before you get to the left turn. Whip out Lara’s guns and get
ready to waste a leopard. NOTE: This animal is not in the demo. Once the animal
is removed from the level, proceed left and slow down to see the two side walls
coming together to smash against each other.
[FIRST CLOSING WALLS]
When they are together race up to them and when you come to a stop, stop! As
soon as they open again race forward and roll when you are near the end so that
you get out in time. Aha! You say! I see a cage! Haha! That is the key to the
puzzle to Lara’s left! Grab it and move it to the crashing walls and when they
open, push it into the gap and continue moving it into the gap until you get to
the second set of crashing walls.
[SECOND CLOSING WALLS]
Now a trick - when the second one opens, only push the cage just far enough to
stop both walls from crashing together. Once the first wall retracts, push the
cage further into the second set of walls and continue on. When you get to the
end of it, do the same with the second as you did the first. Wait till it
closes and smashes onto the cage then push forward and out. Dump the cage and
race up the stairs to the right (well you don’t have to race if you don’t want
to...) and into the brand new room. Ahh the master puzzle of the demo level!
[MASTER PUZZLE]
/%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%\
Just to Lara’s right and onto the level just to the right of the chain that you
face, is the tenth and final bronze reward! WICKED!
\%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%/
-{Bronze 10/10}-
Oh dam the door just closed behind Lara and she is now locked in the tomb. A
cinematic will play showing the door closing and Lara looking up at the
contents of the new room. "patience and persistence" is required for this
puzzle. Turn right and find the cage on the current deck level. Now grab out
Lara’s handy dandy new binocs, turn on RAD, and have a look at the three square
pads on the floor, the bright white door at the far end of the room and the
three cages - one to Lara’s immediate right, one underneath what looks like a
seesaw to Lara’s forward left and another to Lara’s far forward right. First
off, grab the cage on Lara’s right, and move it onto any one of the three pads.
If you step on a pad Lara will look at what happens to learn what each pad
does. Once the first cage is on a pad, walk to the middle where the middle pad
is and right on the end, on the lower level is a leopard! Waste it from where
you are so that it cant harm you. Now jump down to the lower level and grab the
cage from underneath the seesaw and then place it on top of it on the same end
as it was. Jump up to the upper decking and then run to the ledge to the right
of the seesaw. Now turn left and jump onto the end of the seesaw to launch the
cage up and onto the decking. If you just ran onto the end of the seesaw the
cage will simply roll off it. You need to jump onto it. Repeat the process with
the other cage, until all three are on the top deck. Move each cage to an empty
pad and watch as the door opens. Hoorah! Now you can do two of one solution,
which really, is a simple mirror of the other. Either left side or right side.
It don’t matter. Jump up onto the ledge on the wall next to the door you used
to enter the room and next to the chain with the thingy on it. From there, jump
onto the chain above the thingy and then onto the thin ledge and start moving
hand over hand around the bend. Jump up a level and up onto the deck there.
Above Lara’s head is a chain that you can use to climb across the small chasm.
Once on the other side of the chain, you will see a horizontal pole sticking
out from the wall. Funny how these things are obviously put so that you can
get from point A to point B! Jump onto it and swing and launch Lara onto the
platform where the door opened.
/#############################################################################\
Well this isn’t hard but its time consuming. Once you are at the top, right in
front of the door, look to the other side of the room if you took the left path
on the left side of the room. From where you are at the door, jump onto the
ledge and around the bend. Continue along and then vault up to the next ledge
up, and then vault onto the ledge where the chain is. Cross the chain to the
other side of it and let go. Whoopee! The third silver reward!!
\#############################################################################/
-{Silver 3/5}-
/$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$\
OK now this can be a bit tricky to accomplish. Once you have all three cages on
the pads, go to the middle one and grab it. Push the cage towards the white
door so as to get a good view of it. The door should shut. OK, now pull it back
