We will not mention every single enemy, to keep the element of
surprise….
Moves:
-Lara will pull up into the crawlspace without holding the "crawl" key,
getting out of the crawlspace; hold forward down and hit "Alt", Lara
will jump forwards out of the crawlspace.
-Shimmying goes way faster than in "normal" games.
Watch
the opening movie to get an idea of the course of events.
Pilot: Mayday, mayday.
Lara: What happened!?
The pilot: I have no ideaaaaaaH!
Lara: Where am I?
Level 1: Crashed!
No
Compass here! - conserve health as much as possible as you’ll need
medipacks later on.
The plane Lara was travelling with, crashed in the Himalayan Mountains,
crates and supplies scattered all over the place as you will soon find
out.
The
Pilot’s Key.
Go
into the cockpit, to the R is the Pilot’s Key on the floor,
electric cables fall into the exit, stand on the R hand side facing back
into the plane and stand-jump through as the red cable swings left and
go into the back of the plane. To the R is a toilet, open the door and
get the Bottle of Water, the opposite toilet holds a Medipack,
go out and right, then left of the closed door in the back of the plane
is a Keyhole, use the Pilot’s Key to open the door in the back, crates
of unused parachutes all over the place.
Lara’s
Notebook.
Look
for the trapdoor in the floor and go down into the lower section of the
plane. Go for that small book on the floor and recover Lara’s
Notebook (you can examine it as von Croy left some instructions on
surviving).
Lara: It sure is cold out here. I better find some survival gear fast.
Von Croy’s survival gear tips:
Firm boots
Suitable clothing
Compass
Weapons of some sorts
Food and water
"When in China, I found a mysterious artefact called the Ca'xia Stone.
Its literally means "The beautiful light and mist stone". I do not
recognise the material it is made of.
Gathering some Survival gear.
Go out
of the wrecked plane and left to the rock wall, there's an opening to a
cave, jump up there and go into the back. Up to the right you can climb
up into a crawlspace to another cave, get a Medipack there and
return to the valley. Head down the valley to a crate in the middle of
the valley and push it aside to get the Pistols from under it.
Notice the tail part of the plane across the Gorge, walk up to the left
side at the Gorge and look down to see something on the ledge below.
Slide there and pick up your Boots. Jump back up to the valley
(two stand-jumps) and go up the hill on the left side of the valley as
you are facing the Plane. There’s an entrance in the rocks, follow to a
big rock, push it to the end and go in R, follow to another rock ahead,
pull it once and go right around to get some Canned Food (small
medipack). Go back around the rock and straight at the crossing, go out
to that opening overlooking a Pit.
Drop
down, shoot the ice that is covering the crawlspace in the corner (under
the ledge you came down from) and crawl in. Follow to a deep canyon.
Stand left and save, run-jump/grab to the pillar ahead and hang one step
from the right hand side, pull up over the top and slide/jump and jump
again, curving left, slide/jump curving left again and slide/jump.
If you
fall down, no fear, there is a ladder in the back so you can climb back
up to start this slide/jump sequence again.
The
last pillar is a longer slide, try to keep your cool and jump/grab from
the end to a crack in the wall ahead, shimmy right and pull up in an icy
alcove to get Secret#1, the
Yeti Bone. Face the flat pillar, stand-jump onto that pillar and
stand left, pull up and do slide/jumps, curving left for the pillar left
and then you’ll jump back to the start ledge, crawl back to the pit.
Nothing more to do here right now, so head back to the passage with the
rocks and follow back to the Plane.
Into
the Gorge.
(general directions are the side where the
plane’s engine is and where the oil barrel is)
Go
right and stay on the somewhat higher slope, walk to the right hand side
of the Gorge (opposite the Plane's tail) and find a ledge below, drop to
that ledge, hop back and grab to climb the icy ladder down to another
ledge.
The
Backpack.
Once
down turn right and jump backwards, grab the edge and shimmy a bit to
the left. Let go and slide down, then jump to the other side and slide
down to the ground floor. In this corner of the Gorge is an Oil spill.
Turn around facing that burning crate and get onto the ladder left
(Remember this route). Jump towards
the block with the icicles, hoist up on a corner and a run-jump to the
next ledge. Take another run-jump to the ladder, shimmy around the
corner and let go, slide down and grab. Hoist up and jump/roll and grab
the opposite side, get up and get the Backpack.
Lara: "My backpack. Finally!
Well, that wasn't so bad."
Some
Clothes.
Walk
to the burning crate after the flyby and go around the snowy mound left,
you can jump up to the top of it and grab up to the ridge above, shimmy
right and pull up on the white snow, go get the Suitcase with Clothes.
Get
down from the ledge and go to the other end of the Gorge, where you saw
that Oil barrel spilling oil, turn around and facing the burning crate.
Go up that left hand ladder again and run-jump/grab ahead to the ledge
with the icicles, which will fall, so wait with pulling up and shimmy
right around the corner to the other side, pull up in the corner and
stand-jump to the snowy ledge, run-jump/grab to the ladder and climb
around right, go up to the top and look around the corner (to the engine
side). Save.
The
Compass.
Now
you have to do a run-jump around the left to a ledge, so stand in the
corner close to the ledge, face the Gorge and sidestep twice to the
right, then turn left diagonally and hop back once to do a banana jump
to that ledge. Climb up left and go up the ladder, turn right and see
the Compass across the Gorge, grab the edge of the ridge with the Snow
Leopards and shimmy right to that ledge, get the Compass (which
will be opened later) and a flyby will show the Pit filling with snow
after a Snowball fell above. Also that burning crate and the Oil barrel
are shown. Shimmy back across to the ladders and go all the way up and
out to that valley at the Plane, go up the other side again and into the
cave with the rocks.
The
Branch
(Torch).
Follow
to the Pit and go into the passage across, follow to a small yard with 4
trees, a small branch is sticking out of each tree. Break off a
Branch (Torch) and head back to the Plane’s crash site. Now you can
throw the Branch down into the Gorge and light it at the burning crate,
but I had a hard time finding the unlit Branch, so I went into the Plane
first and lit it there.
Either
way, go throw it down the Gorge from the ledge left, where you got the
Boots in the first place track it down to be able to find it again
(better save first) then to the Oil barrel side to climb down the
ladder. From the ledge under the ladder you can now take the fast way
down, that’s turning left from the ladder and jumping into the corner of
the Gorge, you’ll slide down some ledges and can safety drop down to the
bottom.
Under
the Ice.
(Not only do you have to watch the oxygen supply, but also the body
temperature, because the water is freezing cold)
Go get
the Branch and go to the burning crate and ignite it then throw it onto
that Oil-spill at the barrel. The fire will melt the ice. Dive in and
follow the only tunnel to the space under the ice of the Gorge, swim to
the engine side and Save in front of the tunnel to the right.
The
Cargo Space Key.
Follow
the tunnels to what seems a room with a dead end, but there’s air and a
flat ledge you can climb up on. Shoot
away the rock first and grab a crack in the wall to shimmy left to a
ledge on the corner, pull up on that corner and turn to spot a ladder
over Lara to the right (use look button). Turn left a bit and back flip
to a slanted piece of rock, jump and grab the ladder (maybe you have to
adjust the aiming a bit). Go up and on top start jumping on the sloped
ledges, aim right till you are on the ledge with the Cargo Space Key
and a Medipack on the other side.
"I've found all my belongings now, but the Cia'Xia Stone, the artefact I
found in China,
s still missing. It seems to have caused the plane to crash. Where did
it go?"
Go
down into the water and swim back all the way to the Oil barrel. And
while Lara is busy pulling up out of the water... Save because you now
only have 2 minutes to get back to the plane.
On
climbing out of the water Lara will say:
“I’d better get back to the plane within two minutes or I'll freeze to
death”.
Timed
Run to the Plane.
(Save)=this
will indicate good spots to save your game.
So (Save)
while Lara pulls up and run jump/grab up to that ladder left go up and
runjump/grab to the Icicle ledge pull up (Save)
run jump over the Icicles to the snowy ledge ahead and run to the end,
jump/grab to the right hand side of the ladder and before Lara puts her
legs up, shimmy around the corner right (hanging by hands she’ll climb
faster), to almost the right hand side of the ladder, go up and pull up
(Save), turn right and hop back, run
jump with a sharp left curve (banana jump) to the ledge around the
corner and climb or side jump (Save) up
left, go up the ladder and follow the route you did before to the top (Save),
in the lower passage you will slide, jump sharp right (Save)
from halfway down that slope and start running with jumps into the plane
to use the Key right of the door. If you’re in time at the first go,
Save at the lock before using the Key and wait till the 2 minutes are up
to see what happens if you shouldn't have made it.
Getting dressed up.
When
you made it in time, a cut scene will take over and Lara will leave the
plane in a spectacular way, fully dressed and ready for battle.
Lara: “Well? What are YOU waiting for? Let's go!”
Level 2: Icy Waters.
(the Compass is back, the red needle is the direction).
1st
Prayer Wheel.
Stand
on the NE corner of the ledge, aim NE and stand-jump to the snowy ledge
on the same level as you stand, go NE and stand-jump down NE to a ledge
with Secret#2, the 1st
Prayer Wheel. Turn S and run-jump down to the ledge under the plane
(have a look up, nice!) and run-jump/grab over to the E, walk up to the
snow less spot and wait for the Snowball to pass before you head
S, run-jump to the next ledge and walk slow till the Snowball
falls, then follow the ledges to the E wall and stand-jump/grab to a
crack right of the ledge, shimmy across to the right. Climb on the rock,
jump to the flat ledge up left and go W, around the frozen waterfall and
into the cave S with the 2 Snow Leopards, go in and get the
Canned Food.
Down the Gorge, 2nd Prayer Wheel.
Return
to the outside and go slide down from that nearby frozen waterfall to
the bottom of the Gorge, kill 3 more Snow Leopards, then go SE
and find the opening to a cave, grab up on the left side and shimmy
right a bit before you can pull up. Go into the SW corner and climb up W
into the crawlspace, follow to a room with
Secret#3, the 2nd Prayer Wheel. Go out NW
and get back to the Gorge.
3rd
Prayer Wheel.
Go NE
along the E side and into the opening to a deep cave. Stand on the left
side and drop to that ledge below. Turn around and face E and
run-jump/grab E, then turn S and run-jump over the abyss, run quickly to
the right side of the opening in the S wall and wait for the
Snowballs to pass. Enter and go left and into a crawlspace. Turn so
you face W with Lara’s head against the W wall and stay close to the S
wall. Save! Go crawl backwards onto the sloped part slowly by just
tapping the backwards arrow and the Snowball will just miss Lara,
because she will pull her legs underneath her. Go up the ladder to get
Secret#4, the 3rd
Prayer Wheel.
4th
Prayer Wheel.
Go
back out to the deep cave and turn right on the ledge (the passage W is
for later). Jump E and then NE to get under the monkey swing, grab up
and cross over to the passage N, follow through to the left (W) and come
to a deep pit. Stand on that little mound and face the passage you just
came from, back flip onto the slanted block, jump again and grab the
monkey swing, go over to the other side, but not quite to the end, just
onto the last square, drop and slide/jump/grab the ladder. Go down to
the bottom of the cave, turn right and go into the passage left (NE),
follow to a Leopards den and grab the Shotgun Ammo, return to the
cave and go into the SE passage heading E. Walk up to the hole in the
floor and stand-jump over, immediately back flip to get out of the way
and jump over again. Go up into the crawlspace up right and down the
other side, face the S wall and stand-jump/grab to a crack in that wall,
go right to the ladder. Let Lara get her feet up and back flip/roll,
slide and grab the edge, go left to the ledge with
Secret#5, the 4th
Prayer Wheel.
Side-jump back onto the slope, so you can jump/grab the ladder and get
to the crack to shimmy all the way back to the ledge left, climb back
out and go back to the cave W. Go to that frozen waterfall you came down
from and climb the left hand side to the top and back flip off to the
ledge behind. Run-jump to the ledge NE and go up to the highest walk
able point, stand with your back at the E wall and as far left as
possible, now you have to run down W with a right curve in the end, jump
and curve sharp right to get onto the walk able top of the waterfall NW.
Lake
Area. (No need to shoot the fish
Follow
to a lake and follow the right hand side to the very tip of the ledge,
look up right and spot the Soldier on the watchtower, maybe you
can shoot him from here before he even notices you. On the Watchtower is
a medipack. Climb the ridge to the E and go over to the house E
through the valley with the Snow bike and go up to the house, from there
NE along the front of the house and run-jump into a ledge in the E hill
with the Boulders, run-jump to the N and go up to the house.
The
Shotgun.
Go to
the front of the house, open the door (a flyby starts), a Guard will
come out while a Thug will start to attack you, shoot that Thug. Then
look for Shotgun Ammo under the crate SE, the Binoculars
and the Shotgun under the crates NE and Flares SW. By now
the Guard will be coming back into house, so wait up a bit and shoot
him; go out of the house and go N. Stand on that icy triangle and side
flip onto the roof. Go E and jump down on a crate to pick up the Uzi
ammo there. Side flip back onto the roof and now go down from the W
side, head W along the other house and to that sign that reads “Warning
trespassers will be shot”. Take a running jump W and jump up to
collect the Pistol ammo. Now jump SW to that flat piece in the
corner and another running jump in the same direction to the snowy ledge
on the right and get that Medipack.
Into
the water and swim up to dry land E (you could however decide to go back
the way you came, as the route over dry land won't cause you loss of
health). Go back over land to the big house S.
The
House Key,
Computer Disk and Automatic Pistol.
Shoot
the Guards, one leaves some canned food behind and then go into
the house, go right and open a door, go in for more food, then go
to the hall and open the opposite door, go left at the fireplace and
push a button, go to the other side, past the fire and climb backwards
down the opened trapdoor, shoot all the crates and get Shotgun
and Uzi Ammo and grab the House Key NW. Go back to the
trapdoor and climb back up, shoot the Guard to get his Medipack,
go to the hall and open the door S.
Go up
the stairs and shoot the Thug. Take the Computer Disk he
drops and go out the door W, follow the balcony to the right to get the
Automatic Pistol. Go back down to the lake and follow around the
E side to the houses N, go to the NW house and open the door with the
Key, go in and get a medipack in the corner to the right, more on
a crate and Flares on the low crate next to the PC. Wait
up...PC…? Put the Disk in the PC and Lara types in the code…
Lara:
“Hmm…A long lost monastery hidden in the
mountains…? Mysterious Artefact…? interesting…!”
The
Detonator Key and Gate Key.
The
door opens to your right, shoot the Guard get his Food and
enter. At the water is a crate to the left and on the crate is the
Detonator Key. Then dive into the water and swim up S, climb out to
get the Gate Key and some food and turn left to push the
button that will open the gate in the water. Be sure your health is
topped up, Save and dive in to follow the obvious route through the
tunnels, back to the lake, climb out on that icy island and take a
running jump (no grab) S. Go right and jump to a ledge around the corner
and jump back up towards the watchtower. Go to the snow bike, taking out
the resistance on your way over there. From the Bike to the S and find
the opening in the Icy wall SW, climb down all the way and open the gate
with the Key.
Familiar Territory.
Enter
and hop over the pit follow to the crossing and go straight. Use the
monkey swing to go over to the other (S) side, drop at the end and jump
W, go in to the cave left and into the passage right, follow to a hole
in the floor. Climb all the way down to a room overlooking a cave and a
wire is running along the floor, go into the SW corner and place the
Detonator key, go into the NW corner and detonate the crate with TNT.
Look for some Revolver ammo in the corner SE and go into the cave
S. A Guard may be hanging around. Jump over the ridge W,
and in the SE are some Flares, then head N and go to the
now open lake in the Gorge. Swim into the E tunnel and follow to the
Monastery.
Level 3: Denboche Monastery.
On the
bottom of the pool are Flares, then swim up and climb out.
Go
into the opening N and to the right, in an alcove in E wall is a big
Bell, stand under the Bell and draw pistols, back flip and jumping
forwards from the slope behind, you can shoot the Bell so it will sound.
Go back out to the pool and the door S has opened, go in and look up to
the left, just past the open door, go up into the crawlspace in E wall
and drop into a small passage, go S and in a windowsill is a button to
open the door in the previous room, so crawl back out and enter the W
door.
Stand
in the NW corner, your back to the wall and do two stand-jumps over the
Knives, into the next room. Go to the monk and listen carefully
Monk: “Greetings Lara.”
Lara: “Greetings. My apologies, I did not notice this monastery was
still inhabited.
I was only interested to see the architecture and the wonderful artwork
within.
But, there are some nasty men outside wanting to plunder this
monastery.”
Monk: “They must be after the Yavi'ny artefact then.
We knew this would happen some day.
We also knew you were coming.
Lara: “How? And how do you know my name?”
Monk: “Your arrival was foreseen by my father, during one of his
meditations.
It is your destiny to take the Yavi'ny artefact away from here to
unravel its mystery.”
Lara: : The Yavi'ny artefact? Never mind! There's no time for
explanation.
Those men can come in here any second now! Where can I find this
artefact?”
Monk: “It is on the other side of this sanctuary, down by the water.
You must prove yourself worthy of the task and conquer the traps and
puzzles within this monastery on your own. My brothers have been
informed about your arrival.
So please, make yourself at home.”
Lara: “ That sounds like fun to me. Consider it done.”
The Monks are friends, don't shoot them...
In the
fireplace you can see a Key and NW is a button on the wall, but it’s
timed and needs some preparations. It will stop the Fire in the
Fireplace, so for now go out to the Mirror room W (Mirror in the alcove
W) and head S, just ignore the shouting Monk-warrior in his training
session, go into the second opening left into a Store room.
Preparing Crate Puzzle.
Go
left and at the entrance is a crate, leave that there for now and head N
to a stack of crates, pull the single one out once and go get that crate
from the entrance, move it N against the first crate. Now you can move
both top crates as far as possible to the S. Climb over the crate N,
find some storage drums and look up, there's a ladder up. Go have a look
and find another ladder N, this one is leading down to that fireplace.
Now that you know the route you can go down and back to the Monk in the
room with the fireplace. Save in front of the button NW.
Timed
Fireplace Run for the
Sanctuary Key.
Push
and hop back turning left so you face the opening to the Mirror room,
run in and go left, sprint through the passage to the Store room
entrance left and turn in there, sprint to the corner with the storage
drums and hop over the crate, then you have to turn and jump/grab up to
the ladder, go up and turn right, run into the NW corner, grabbing the
ladder, drop down quick, take a step back and grab the Sanctuary Key.
Run up to the ladder and jump/grab up quickly before the Fire starts
again. Go up a bit and back flip to the higher floor, go down to the
Storeroom and out SW.
The
Spear (Crowbar).
Go
into the passage left (S) and to a Crossing room, go left (E) and to the
left is the door to the Sanctuary (remember), go on to the next room E
and go get the Spear (Crowbar) in the windowsill to the left, now
we go back for the Mirror.
The
Mirror.
Return
to the crossing room, right to the Store room passage and N to the
Mirror room, go pry that Mirror in the W alcove from the wall and
go back to the S and left in the Crossing room, use your Key to open the
door to the Sanctuary.
The
Sanctuary.
This will be a room where it's hard to give directions…
Follow
the path to the E, turn left around the corner and find the button on
the red wall to the right (there are 4 symbols over that button), go
push that button to open a bunch of doors around the Sanctuary. Turn
around and look up left (SE) to spot the Symbol of a bowl, that’s where
you have to go, so go E and turn right to go up the ramp to the open
door S, go in straight and come to a room with a small pool.
High
Jumps and a Bell.
Go S
and down to a room with ledges and go stand on the ledge, facing S to
grab up to the first ledge, hang on the left most side and pull up, back
flip/roll and grab the N ledge, go shimmy right (5 steps) till you hang
on the left corner of the last square. Back flip and jump hard left from
the ledge behind to hit the corner of the next N ledge, keep jumping and
on the last one grab with a curve left to the top ledge. Pull up and
shoot the Bell, it has to sound (pistols will do fine). Then make your
way down by jumping onto the SE lower ledge and back flip/roll to slide
down the lower ledge. Go back out to the poolroom (one of the 2 doors E
opened up) but for now, enter the N side room.
High
Jumps a Burner and a Bell.
The
Burner doesn’t make this easy, go stand on the N side of the
burner-ledge, facing N and turn left a bit so you will hit the middle of
the S ledge when you back flip. Draw the pistols. Then time the back
flip to the higher slanted ledge behind you, keep jumping up while you
draw pistols and when on the highest ledge you will shoot the Bell (no
flat ledge to stand on here) Put away the pistols while jumping to and
fro and grab the ledge under the Bell upon sliding off. Go hang in the
far left corner and wait for the Burner to go off, just drop down
loosing a bit of health and quickly run off the ledge. Well... so much
for bell #2.
The
Ghiwang Medicine.
Return
to the poolroom and see both doors E are now open, so enter and get the
Ghiwang Medicine. Go out and past the pool back W to the Sanctuary,
coming out of the door go into the first passage right (E) and follow to
the end (N) and hop up to the somewhat higher ledge left heading N
again. Straight at the next crossing and follow to the end. Don’t go
into the door on your right just yet (N), your goal is that opening a
bit further down near that symbol on a tile. Jump S and go right (down)
turn to you stand right in front of the opening and take a running jump
with grab into the opening. Lara might land in the opening or she might
grab the ladder. Either way, get into the opening and slide down.
Timed
Burners and Flame Emitters.
To the
right when you come in are burners on ledges, but first go to the N end
of this passage is an alcove up left, face the alcove (W) and back flip
onto the sloped wall behind, jump/grab to the alcove and save in front
of this timed button. Push, turn left and run out turning right, run
back to the entrance and turn left, do single stand-jumps over the
Burner-ledges to the other side, go left and follow straight at the
crossing to the next room N.
Stand
NW and here you have to jump the platforms to the pillar in the middle,
try to use the option of hanging from the platform or standing in a
corner to have safe spots where you can save.
Jumping to the Mustard Seed.
This
is what we did: Stand on the NW most corner of the ledge, face N and
stand-jump to the first platform, get onto the NW corner and aim for the
next platform, stand-jump/grab to the corner of that one and shimmy
around to the other side, closest to the next platform, pull up and turn
around to do a stand-jump/grab to the next platform and go right just
around the corner, pull up and time the emitter, run-jump/grab to the
next platform. Go right to pull up at the wall and do a run-jump/grab to
the next platform, pull up in the left hand corner, turn left and
stand-jump to the pillar with the Mustard Seed.
The
Vermillion Powder.
Dive
into the pool and swim up S, go right and left and follow through then
way up the ladders and slide down in the end, to the left is a passage
for later, so go right and back to the Sanctuary. Go right (N) and
follow the ledge to the W end, do a run-jump/grab to the roof W and go
up into the open door to the right (N wall). Follow to the corner and do
stand-jumps over the Knives, and go up the ladder. Climb just
under the brown wall, back flip to a room behind, walk slowly to the
button and push it. You can now see the marked Safe tiles in the room
when you look in the mirror. From the button the first one is a
stand-jump SW and then a stand-jump to the opening W. Follow to the room
with the Vermillion Powder on the pedestal (only visible in the
Mirror). A door opens.
Go
back and from the Tile at the entrance a run-jump to the safe tile at
the button NE, grab the ladder and go down to the Knives, hop over the
Knives and in the next passage is that door you saw opening up, to the
left. Go in to get the Small Bowl that goes with the Vermillion
Powder (you can combine the 2). Go back out and left, to the Sanctuary.
The
5th Prayer Wheel.
Once
on the roof outside, head SW over the rooftops and go to an opening in
the wall with a sign of Herbs painted over the opening. You may want to
get the Medipack that is in a windowsill S first though. Go in
and follow the passage to a T-crossing and step on the right hand sloped
side to trigger a Boulder, hop back and go up, left and the next
one is a bit trickier. Aim for the opening you see SE and run-jump (or
sprint) into that opening before the Boulder strikes. Now go
where the Boulder came from and stand on the middle of the square, back
flip onto the sloped ledge and jump/grab to a ladder, go to the top and
back flip/roll into a passage. More Boulders start to roll, carefully
hop over the Boulder-traps and go get
Secret#6, the 5th Prayer Wheel.
The
Reservoirs.
Go
back down and to the left where the Boulder fell. Follow down to the
pool with the pillar and look in the water E of the pillar for the
Reservoir Key, go and get it. Go out S and stand left in the
opening, save and now you have to run-jump to the ledge left (if Lara
walks slow, try jump up once and then run-jump). Follow to the Knife,
stay one step away from the end of the ledge and hop over the knife, go
to the next around the corner and do a side jump here, standing at the W
wall. Go to where the water gets deeper, but don’t get in, do a run-jump
to the ledge on the right and go for the button on the N wall. A door
opens back at the pool. Run-jump from the ledge to the open doors W and
go over to the W side of the pool.
Flooding the place.
Enter
the door and climb the ladder to the reservoir, go up the ladder left
next and you don’t need to shoot the Monk-warrior, there’s some
Canned Food SW and then go down into the E reservoir,
where you can use the Key in the E wall. Go back into the W reservoir
and into the door W, pull the 2 crates out and put one in front of the
wall-opening NE and the other SE, so the flow of water will be blocked
and fills up the E reservoir. The Waterwheel starts turning and closes
the doors, so the pool can now flood. Make your way back to the pool by
diving in the water N of the W reservoir and swim back, go up to the
pillar and get the Durva Grass.
Use
your Medicine.
Go
back to the passage N and leave through the Boulder passage and once out
on the roof in the sanctuary. Look down SE, drop to the ledge below and
go SW through the door into the main building, right at the fire, then
left to a room where you can put the Mirror on a stand W.
Turn
around and enter the room where all the medicine has to be put in bowls.
Every time you place something a Boulder will drop in the Sanctuary.
Remember you have to put the Vermillion Powder in the Small
Bowl first. Dropping on trigger tiles, the Boulders will open an UW
door in the Sanctuary.
Head
back out to the Sanctuary (E) around the corner to the left, then right
(passing the button you pushed) up the ramp on the right, take a left
and walk to the end (N). When you look down you can see a ball in the
water, jump in the water near that ball and there is a door E that
opened. Swim into the open door and follow to where you can climb up.
The sounds are promising…. Be sure to have your health-bar full.
Up the
Shaft, the 6th Prayer Wheel.
Jump/grab the ladder over the water and hang on the left side, climb up
to where you are well safe from the Knife (two bars from the top) and
back flip/roll/jump with a left curve and grab the next ladder. Go up
closer to the Knife and back flip/roll/grab. Climb up till you are on a
spot where Lara is about the same height as the ledge with the rolling
ball. Go as right as possible, back flip/roll and then stand-jump/grab
with a left curve to the next ladder. Go down and left around the corner
into a passage under the Boulder trap and go into the lower room to get

out to the Sanctuary.
6
Prayer Wheels for a Lotus Flower.
Turn
right and follow the ledge to the N wall, go left around the corner and
there is an opening we haven’t visited yet at the end of this ledge.
Place the 4 Prayer Wheels in their receptacles, the door in the N opens.
Place the last 2 of the Prayer Wheels there.
Another door opens, so back out and to the right.
Save
before you take Secret#8, the
Lotus Flower and hold the back flip keys while Lara picks up the
Flower. See why…???
The
Yavi’ny Artefact.
Now go
back the Sanctuary. There is one more pick up and it is in the NW
corner, so go back to the walkway left and jump up SW, go right (W) and
jump over the opening in the floor, at the end jump right (N) and in the
small room on the left is a Medipack. Get out and make your way
to the top of the Sanctuary (where the boulders where hanging before and
see that the cage is gone as well.
Hop
into the shaft and drop into the water below. Swim through the only
passage and go along the bottom to pass under the Knife-traps (take the
left side and notice the closed door for later) and follow up to a room,
take one of the passages N and follow to a room where you’ll find the
Yavi’ny Artefact on a pedestal...
Lara: “Made it! That was awesome! When I have my
own mansion I'll transform the ballroom into a gym like this.--“
Save
before you take the Artefact, as there will be a timed swim after the
flyby.
After
Lara picks up the alien artefact, a monk in another room opens an
underwater door so the room Lara is in, floods:
Lara: “Swim girl, swim! --“
Timed
Swim.
After
the Flyby the place will be flooded, swim back S fast and down into the
tunnel N stay low, turn right into the open door after the first
Knife-trap and follow right through the next room, swim out of the timed
door fast and just straight through the next pool into a tunnel (swim
with the current) and after the level changed, swim S.
Level 4: Tannhauser Gate.
Icy Caves.
You’ll come up in an Icy
cave, climb onto the ledge in the water and jump/grab to the crack in W
wall, go shimmy left all the way to a crawlspace in the end. Follow to a
pit and slide down backwards, grab the edge, go left and pull up. Back
flip to the ledge behind and go carefully past the Icicles, into the
next passage and do a stand-jump/grab forward to the monkey swing
ceiling. Go over the first pool to the other side and right a bit, face
to the wall and drop/grab to the lower crack, go right and pull up in
the passage. You are on the other side from where you started.
Go E and up a ladder to the
right. Go run-jump to the icy bridge in the middle of the cave and jump
to the SE corner, climb up E and face the N rock, pull up and back
flip/roll/grab the rock ridge behind. Shimmy right to a flat part, hoist
up and turn around, run-jump/grab to the ladder N. Go up and climb to
the monkey swing going S. Drop/grab the crack and go right around the
corner to pull up in a wide tunnel, go up to a frozen lake and shoot the
Snow Leopards and a flyby will show a Guard on the ledge above.
Lara: “Oh Great!! Not again!!…”
Boulders and Icicles
Walk to that rock W of the
entrance and from there you can already take out the Guard on the ledge
by jumping up and down. Then proceed with utmost care to the SE corner,
climb over the rock into a lower tunnel and follow to a pit, run-jump
over and immediately back flip. Get to the other side again and follow
to some icicles on the floor. Be sure your health is topped up and run
through and climb up.
Then drop off into a lower
cave and climb the ladder there to get to the ridge where the Guard was
before. Jump over the canyon to the S and get the
medipack to the
left, be sure to hold back flip while Lara picks it up. Jump back over
the canyon, go E and take care of the opposition.
The Monastery Key.
Shoot the Snow Leopard and
when you come to a crossing, a flyby will show the heavily Guarded
Monastery. Go into the left passage and do a run-jump over the pit, not
to the ladder but to the left and follow W to some crates. A Snow
Leopard show up and shoot the crates to get the
Monastery Key
and
Flares. That
crate of TNT will come in handy later. Go back to the pit and jump to
the N side, go down the ladder and get a
medipack from
under the crate, near a pool with an Alien, “Frozen in Time”. Go back up
the ladder follow the N trail and shoot the Guards at the Monastery, one
leaves some
Uzi ammo
behind..
The Monastery.
On the right of the
Monastery is an opening, shoot all the crates to get
Flares and the
Uzis.
Return to the
front of the Monastery and open the door with the Monastery Key (the
keyhole is just to the side of the opening you just came from), go in
and get the
Canned Food to
the right. There is
Uzi ammo in the
NW windowsill, go into the N passage and look for a push block in the N
wall a bit to the right and push it all the way in (3 times). Hop back
and go left, then right and pull the block, go around again to get it
into the NW alcove, so a trapdoor will open in the passage NE, turn
right from pushing the block and in the end of that passage you can
climb the ladder and go up to a room with more push blocks.
Pushing for the 2nd Monastery Key.
Look at the E and W walls
and see missing blocks, the 4 blocks with the same textures will make
the walls complete again; it’s not too hard, just remember the open side
of the block should face the room. The door opens NW, go in and climb up
to the first floor, grab the monkey swing and cross over to the other
side to pull the
timed lever S.
This opens a door in the S wall of the room with the push blocks below.
Roll, sprint out left, and keep left around the corner and just run left
off the floor at the monkey swing. In the next room find a button in the
W wall so you can go outside to the balcony, at the end of this balcony
is another
Basement Key.
Get back and push the button near the door N twice to get out.
Leave through the right
hand opening of the N wall; climb down, to the passage where you pushed
the first block. In the SE side is a keyhole that will open a trapdoor
in the W end of the passage. Go there and go down 2 ladders.
Knife Passage and the
Tibetan Jewel.
Run-jump along the right
hand wall over the first Knife from the ledge at the ladder and hop over
the second one, climb the ladder to the right and push the block in the
W wall of the room all the way in so you can enter the room beyond.
Throw the lever in that room. Return to
climb back down to the Knife passage and go S over another Knife, go get
the
1st Tibetan Jewel
in the room at the end. That crate of TNT will explode, opening up a
cave (If you go a bit further W, you can see a yellow paper behind an
Ice wall).
Go back over the Knives and
up the ladder to the Monastery, go outside and SW to the pit with the
ladder, run-jump to the W side and take out the opposition. One of them
will drop some
Shotgun Ammo,
then look for the cave that opened up N and keep to the left while going
down to the lower part. Down at the big doors, go right and use the
slanted block to back flip to it and jump-grab to the ledge over the
entrance, use the switch and go down, to the room at the other side of
the big doors. Grab the crack in the SW corner and shimmy left to the
ledge, pull the 2nd switch and the big doors open up.

Place the 2 Tibetan Jewels there and the doors open up. Go in and down
either one of the passages to a pool and swim into the SE tunnel swim
into the first tunnel left, stay low at the
Knife and use
the UW lever (this opens a door in the other passage). Swim back and go
left past the Knife to get out in a small cave.
A Torch.
Crawl into the NE opening
and go left at the crossing, follow to a larger intersection, head SE
and around the left corner is a lever. It will open a nearby door, turn
around and go right around the block into what seems a dead-end. Climb
up to the right and go to the open door and inside to the right is the
Torch, go back
and down to the intersection, go NW and keep going left. You'll pass
some blue crystals on the wall; just around the left corner is an alcove
to the left. Drop the torch for a moment and pick up the
Shotgun Ammo at
the skeleton. Grab the torch again and go on E, turning right you will
head S. Go all the way to the end and find some grey push blocks in the
wall, you will be back here later. First we have to light the torch
somewhere, head NW and go into the first passage going W. Turn right at
the first crossing and follow through to a pit with deadly icicles. Take
a run-jump over the pit and carefully ignite the Torch at the end of
this passage. Go back the way you came, over the pit, take the first
left and to the E. Go the right at the next crossing and you are back at
those push blocks
Pushblocks. (Map)
Drop the Torch in the front
passage between the 2 push blocks (so you can get it later) and push the
right hand block (#1) in, till you can go left, go left around so you
end up at the back of block #2, push it once (into the front passage)
and go back around to push it into the alcove E. Go back inside and pull
block #1 once, go around and push it into the alcove W. Pull the #3
block all the way out of the S passage and go around to push it out into
the front passage. Then move it into the W corner.

around and pull it into the passage where block 2 was before, go get
your Torch and go into the passage E where you got block #4 from.
Boulder slope.
Better save before you
proceed up the slopes in the next passage, I went up the right hand one
and I side jumped left as soon as the Boulder dropped. Then side jump
back to the right and follow up. Light the 2 Oily pools to the right and

have a look at that ball sliding along the rail and making ledges
appear/disappear. Jump over the platforms to the other side and then
again to the S into that alcove. Save a lot, as it isn’t that easy and
you’ll have to jump higher and higher.
Tips: First
thing is to jump when you think the ledge will appear so you have time
to adjust your angle on the second platform for the next jump to the
right.
Stand in the W side of the
alcove, take three steps back and standjump to the first platform, run
curving right to jump to the next with a right curve in the air, last is
a right curved running jump to grab the ledge SE. Climb up to the right
and go for the platform SE. Now you have to get up to the ledge NE, you
can see from here.
Go to the W and line up for
the right hand side of the platform, again jump when you think it will
appear and take standjumps, turning R after every jump, last one a
running jump plus grab to the NE side ledge. (I found it easier taking a
side flip and adjust your angle for the next jump and a running jump
plus grab to the other side (E).)
To the third level is a
jump onto the switching ledge and a running jump up to the last ledge
which is a save place.
Top of the Tower,
Orb Piece #2.
Go out S and right (W) and
run-jump to the rocks on the other side (SW), shimmy right to the end
and pull up, jump/roll and grab, hoist up and walk to the NE tip to
run-jump to the platform at the side of the Tower to use the jump lever.
Cut scene of a block sliding out of the wall.
Run-jump back (no Ctrl) and
spot a crawlspace up (S) and get in. Get out and down and at the end a
run-jump E to a ledge. Keep going along the wall till you see that block
and the ladder on the Tower. Jump to block and climb up to the top of
the Tower.
Go to the SW corner and
face S, run-jump to that crack in the opposite wall. Shimmy left to get
into the opening, inside climb up left and back flip, runjump around the
room over the blocks, climb up to the E and turn around and jump
up W. Follow into a cave with a crawlspace left, get in there and follow
to the end. Go down into the room to get
Secret # 13, the
second half of the
Orb Piece.
Go to the hole in the
floor, face S and climb backwards down as far as possible and safety
drop down, back on the Tower.
Go N, behind that block and
step (use Ctrl) on that slide board to slide down.
You are in the
DRESSING ROOM.
Protective Body Amour for the
Key Disk.
Go to the right (E) and the
next sign reads: "Danger,
wear protection".
Go S and onto the balcony
to get the
Explosive ammo,
go back in and climb the ladder (E) in that room, backflip to the floor
above.
Go to that Pipe in the
corner of the room and push/pull it on the yellow circle, it will
connect with the ceiling. The door N opens, get the
Protective Body Amour
and leave. Down the ladder, down to the room with the Danger sign and go
W, right at the slide board and then follow to find the sign "Dressing
Room" and use
the Protective Body Armour on the door. And the door will close, of
course you are not allowed to watch.
Get out and now go into the
danger room and grab the
Key Disk. Use
the Key Disk W, the door around the corner opens and you are outside in
a cave area again.
The Cave, the Teleport Room Disk.
Go E and slide down and
enter a green house left. Use the lever E. A trapdoor in the other room
(S) is open, use the ladder to go down. Get the
Teleport Room Disk.
Get out, up the ladder and to the cave and now go N and slide down. Use
the Teleporter Room Disk left, go in the room but NOT in the Teleporter
as it doesn’t work, but into opening behind and use the jump lever in
the last room.
The Starship.
This opens the door outside
opposite where you used the disk, so go back through the Teleporter room
and out E, go left into that cave N. This is that Starship where the
Artefact from the plane (level 1) went to, you can see it locked on the
top of the ship.
Go into opening E and
follow through to pick up some
Canned of Food
in the back of the building E and climb the ladder a bit back. Follow
onto the top of this place and go SW, first jump to the first triangle
block sticking out and then grab the crack in the wall from standing on
the highest point. Shimmy right, all the way around the corner.
Continue along the ledge and take a running jump into the mouth of the
cave NW.
The Cai’xia Stone.
Watch out, as there is also
a pit in that area, jump over the pit and follow through. Once up the
roof of the Starship you can get the
Cai’xia Stone,
the door of the Starship opens up below.
Lara:
“So there you are... What are you exactly?”
You can go all the way back
but you also can slide down backwards and safety drop down onto the
walkway, loosing a bit of health and you’ll be right where you have to
be, the door of the Starship. Get into the Starship and go left, again
left and use the pieces of the
Orb there.
Turn around and go into the
opened room to get the
Yavi’ny Gha’rth as secret # 14.
For the Starship Key.
For now, go back out and
jump to the other side, go to the ledge E and to the end and jump onto
the slanted block NE, grab and drop to slide all the way down to the
bottom.
Go into the SE corner and
behind the pillar is a grate (E wall). There is a slanted block in front
of it. Stand facing the wall, draw your pistols, jump backwards, jump up
and shoot the grate then again a backwards jump and up and grab the
crawlspace. Follow through, shoot another grate and get down on the
floor in the next room.
Push to get the Power On.
Go left (E) and see on the
left some pushable objects. Push them on their right tile, the contacts
facing inwards. You know when you did it right, the tile will raise and
some electricity will form around the top. On the ball on top is a
little thing sticking out, that should point to the middle.
You'll see a glass door
opening, that door is on the right hand side of the entrance, so head
back go straight W and into that alcove. Use the spear on that lever
contraption, and watch some slanted platforms going up.
The glass door is still
closed so leave here, go into the room E, up left back through the
crawlspace to the big cave, go S into the tunnel and jump over the slope
to find yourself at the slanted platforms on the left. You could use the
Key disk you already have in your backpack on the door there, but... too
bad, the door is broken and won't fully open.
So, line up for some
jumping and sliding. Take a running jump to the first, slide and jump
till the end. Get the
Yavi’ny Starship Key
and jump/slide back ( hop onto the right hand side of the first jump
right and slide jump to the left). Go down the slope to the cave and go
W into the Teleporter room and go into the beam that teleports you back
up again.
The Alien.
Get out off the Teleporter,
go W and left, jump over the gap in the walkway N, head into the
Starship and use the
Yavi’ny Starship Key
on the door N.
Alien: “Welcome earth woman.”
Lara: “Croft, Lara Croft is my name. I mean you no harm.”
Alien: “I know you don't. You have after all brought
back the Ya'ktar.”
Lara: “Oh, you mean this? What's it for exactly?”
Alien: “The Ya'ktar is a source of great power and it
will enable me to return to my home Planet, once the rest of
my Star ship is fully operational again.”
Lara: “Fascinating... Is there anything I can do to help?”
Alien: “Many years ago we were on an expedition to
your planet. We came here to learn about your species.
But something went terribly wrong and our ship lost power. Disease and
the cold environment has killed my companions.
I placed myself in hyper sleep hoping someone would eventually bring
back the Ya'ktar.
It has weakened me...
There is little time; I grow weaker as we speak.
I would like you to help me retrieve the 4 recharged Triclon cells,
which are
inside my spaceship.”
Lara: “Well, it just so happens that finding stuff is a
specialty of mine.
Keep yourself warm and I'll return shortly with what you need.”
Level 7: The Yavi’ny Starship - The Beginnings.
Go in and take a left and
again a left. You see a glass covered button in front of you, so go
right and around the right hand corner is another button, but before
using that go to the other side around the corner in an alcove get the
Alien Raygun and
now go back to the button, use it and roll, go left around the corners,
back out of this room to the W where the level started, straight E is an
opened door.
Follow through and end up
in a huge room. There are hardly visible platforms in here. Run/jump the
first S and make your way to the other side. Inside that room and to the
left you can get the
Anti-gravity Belt
and also a cut scene. Make you way back over the other side of the
transparent platforms and follow back to the room E with that button,
head up the glass ramp E. Go to the alcove with the yellow lever N,
throw the lever and watch the next clues. Back down and out SW to that
corridor and now use the button S as the glass cover lifted. The door N
will open up, so go into the Main Hall there.
The Yavi’ny Starship - Engineering.
Activate the Yagul.
Go up the glass ramp and
enter the opening E. There are two glass blocks in the E wall, pull
those out so you can use the buttons left and right to open the door
(S), walk through the beams and save. Time your stand jumps through the
deadly beams, follow through and pick up the
Yagul Activation Key
and make your way back to the Main Hall as you came.
Go down the glass ramps and
use this newest find on the door W. The glass covering E is gone; use
the button. Hop back and look left, a cute little robot comes out,
The Yagull. and
he/she opens the door N. Go in and at the end of this corridor you can
use the button on the left to open the door to the right of you.
The Triclon Core, Navigation Disk 1.
Enter this new room and
watch out for the flying robots (the Raygun is a great tool to use in
here).
Go E and then go NE up the
glass ramp and at the end get the
Navigation Disk 1,
on the walkway SW. On the E side of this floor is a basin. Get into the
water and swim S and to the right. Follow through and come out in the
room below the floor of the Triclon Core. You can surface under the
glass floor.
Go N and on both sides N
are two underwater doors (they are a bit hard to see, so use a flare),
open them both and use the underwater ceiling levers. Swim to the W as
the bars are open there, SW or NW you can take a breather. There is
nothing in the passage E. So hoist up out off the water, go N and get
the
Explosive ammo
from the pedestal left. Go down the glass ramp E. Go into opening left
(S) and get that
Medipack around
the right hand corner. Go use the yellow lever E and open the exit with
the button SE. Go through the open door to the Triclon Core, go into the
N room and pull those Prism objects, that aren’t protected by death rays
anymore, to the Triclon Core and on their tiles. It is rather subtle to
see in my game where they go though. Look up on the Core and you see the
different colours there.
W side (Red) Prism goes on
the tile N of the Core, when it goes up you have placed it correct.
N (yellow/green) Prism goes
on the tile E of the Core.
E (blue) Prism goes on the
tile W of the Core.
2
Recharged Triclon Cells.
Go E, up the glass ramp and
the opening where the bars retracted is W. Walk around this balcony all
the way to the S wall and use the lever there to activate the Core. Back
again and now into the opening in the N wall. Get the
Recharged Triclon Cell
and make your way down again. Once down at the Core, go W and right and
follow through openings N and get the second
Recharged Triclon Cell
from the last room, a cover
lifts from a button.
The Teleport Room Disk.
Go S and to the Triclon
Core and S into the corridor, then left into the room of the Yagul. Up
the glass ramp and use the button next to the N door. The
Yagull comes out
and opens the door W. Head into that room W and push the TIMED button on
the W wall, roll and sprint back and into the second door to the right
before the door closes.
The Wind tunnel.
Shoot a flying robot. Look
NE, see that fine blue line, that is a crack, so jump and shimmy right
and pull up. (Just for fun you should save and then drop down onto the
slanted wall below and slide down to the grated on the floor, OR not as
you will soon find out what happens then, when you go jump those
platforms).
Turn around and take a
running jump to the swing pole and swing to the opposite side. Use the
yellow lever in there and get back, jump down to a glass platform and
face W. Now you have to jump the platforms, standjumps (while counting
in your mind) so you can get into the opening way down N .
Get the
Teleport Room Disk.
Leave N and follow through, push the button, go right and you end up
where you can use that Disk on the door SW. Enter the Teleport Room,
step into the Teleporter, walk straight out.
The Yavi’ny Starship - Hydroponics.
Use the button to open the
door and go right and follow through, in a corridor with a glass floor
get the
medipack left
(S). Turn around and walk to the end and go right down a ramp, follow
through and come to the aquaria area.
The Hydroponic Gardens Key.
First we go right and in
the end in the room climb that Anti Gravity beam (rope) (Remember you
have an Anti Gravity Belt, Lara will hook on to the beam). Use Ctrl and
arrow up and back flip when you are on the top. Go into the room and
shoot that wired ball (#1) from the small fountain. You don’t need to
shoot the fish, as they will not harm Lara (you can't say they aren't
nosy though). Dive in the pool and get the
Hydroponic Gardens Key
from the SW corner. Go back out, down the light beam and go around to
the other side of the aquarium. Use the disk N to open the door to the
left. Go in and find another wired ball (#2) to shoot in the NW corner.
The Universal Starship Key.
Go now into opening S, and
to the left into the pool room, some small flies attack, go shoot the
wired ball SW (#3) and another one in the SE (#4).
Remember this room as you have to jump into
the opening E later, after you raised that platform in the pool.
Get out of this room N,
turn left go straight W keeping a bit left and climb another beam. In
the upper part of the pool room you have to jump to the other side and
into opening right (SE). Shoot the last wired ball (#5) and go back to
the previous room, down the beam, head back to that pool room. Jump the
platform E to the other side, pick up the
Universal Starship Key
on your left and go back to the platform and jump over to the W.
The 3rd Recharged Triclon Cell.
Go out and head W (left)
climb the beam again and go into the upper part of that room you were
before, jump to the other side again and use the Key NE. The door on the
other side (NW) is open. Follow through and grab the
3rd Recharged Triclon Cell.
Go down again and to the
pool room with the platform and jump to the opening E, where you got the
Starship Key. Go down the stairs, follow to the end to climb up another
but longer beam.
The Hyper-sleep Cells.
Head E and to the right
into opening S and push the broken cell (NW) onto the empty spot SE. An
opening in the floor appears where the broken cell was. Face S and save
before you slide down, as you have to jump up to a monkey climb from the
second slide. Go to the end, let go and grab the ledge to hoist up.
Use the button. A platform
rises in the pit below, so hop backwards off the ledge, grab and
safety drop down onto the platform below. Jump to the other side and use
the button. The door next to the button opens, but before entering use
the
Starship Key E. Use
the yellow lever in there, watch the fly by. Get out and go through
opening N, go left and up the beam, once upstairs into the corridor and
the opening left. The timed button is in the top of the pool room at the
N end and on the N wall, and the door it opens is SW. Best way is to
backflip roll curving right and sprint and once over the bridge start
jumping as that tree is a bit nasty, standing in the way as it is.
Water Bubble and Fertilizer.
Jump in the water and get
the
Water Bubble
from between the orange lilies. Go up the glass ramp and push the TIMED
button on the right (SW). Roll and sprint straight, and again climb the
glass ramp. Go NE in the water and swim in a small alcove under that NW
platform that is covered with dirt and grab the
Fertilizer.
Get back out and place both
objects in the bowls in the NW room. Watch the roots of the plants grow
through the ceiling so that you can use them as a monkey climb to get to
the other side. Here is
Navigation Disk 2
to be found on a pedestal.
Your work is done so back
to the glass ramp (SW) use the button near the door
twice to open
the door. Go left at the timed button and up the ramp, follow in and
find an opening right (S) and use the yellow lever in there first. Back
to the ramp and down to the bottom, and time your run through the deadly
rays (W).
The Hydroponic Garden Key.
Another plant room and in
the water is another pick up. Go up the glass ramp. Go into room SW, use
the timed button, this slides a glass floor panel aside, just outside.
Jump down and get the
Hydroponic Garden key
and get out fast as some pests are nibbling and the panel is timed as
well.
Back down the glass ramp.
Through the deadly rays, up the other glass ramp into opening left and
use the key on the E wall. Turn and go into room opposite.
Go N, and left and grab the
4th
Recharged Triclon Cell.
Go out of the room,
straight E and to the light beam, go down and use button E to leave S
through the open bars, take the first opening left and go towards that
pedestal, left before that room and take the teleporter on the right
(S).
Step out and use the button
to open the door, go left (E) and we are going for the last secret of
this level. Go to the E and around that hall (Yagull is here) to the E
side of this floor and into the room with the 2 glass blocks, look left,
that door is finally open. Get
Secret # 15, the
Galaxy.
Go back out
steps to the hall and go into opening S, which the
Yagull opened
for you.
The Starship's Bridge.
Travel up the Anti Gravity
beam, head N and into the Bridge N. Get the
Screwdriver from
the pedestal NW and use the button SW. Go back to the previous room and
install the 4 Recharged Triclon Cells.
The Galaxy Plotting Room.
A door E opens, go to the
planet Earth (NE) facing N and use the
navigation disk # 1.
Turn around and facing N use the
navigation disk # 2
on another blue planet (SW). Go out (W, hard to see) and to the room
next to the where the alien is, jump the platforms combine the
Cai’xia Stone with
the
Screwdriver to get
the
Ya’ktar and use
that on the contraption. Cross the Bridge into the room W.
In the W a door has opened
so you can get the
Control Centre Crystal.
Now walk to the alien and use it on the stick in front of him.
Alien: “Thank you Lara. You did it!”
Lara: “You're welcome. It was fascinating and
fun!
So, how are you going to get the Starship out of the mountain?
It is completely embedded in rock and ice.”
Alien: “Don't worry about that. Our technology will
enable me to dematerialize and
rematerialize the rock and ice. Nobody will ever know we were here Which
is for the best.”
Lara: “My lips are sealed."
Alien: “It is time for you to go now.
You'll find a village to the east of here.”
Lara: “Thank you. Farewell and have a save
journey home.”
Watch the final fly by
and credits.
