Lara will start this level in a large sandy cavern. Run forward until Lara reaches a pit, then reverse roll and hang down at the edge. Release the action key and immediately press it again to grab the lower ledge. Shimmy right until Lara reaches an alcove with a switch. Release and throw the switch to open a door below. Exit the alcove by dropping to the bottom of the small gorge. Enter the doorway Lara just opened and pull out the brown block covered with hieroglyphics three times. Climb over the block and enter the tunnel behind it and grab the magnum clips(1) and the small Medi Pack (2). Return to the block and climb onto it. On the ledge to the side, find another block and pull the upper block away from the corner so that it is lined up with the lower block. Take a jump over the gorge onto the top of the lower block and turn to face the upper block. Pull it three times away from the wall, and then go around to the back side of the block and push it once so that it is against the opposite wall. Climb onto the block, then onto the tall column beside it. Grab the crevice above and then shimmy right until there is enough room for Lara to pull up. Walk forward to the edge of the ledge but do not drop down to the sandy ground. Draw pistols and face right to find a panther (1). Fire at it from the safety of the ledge. After the panther is dead, face the opening Lara entered from, then vault up the right side of the ledge above the opening. Grab the small Medi Pack (3) and the magnum clips (4). Lara will find a pair of magnums here instead of clips if she is not already carrying the magnums. Drop down off the ledge, and run over to the sandy block on the right. Climb onto the block, and Lara will have a good view of the sphinx and the valley below. Lara will see what looks like a large mummified cat staggering around the valley. Ready pistols and shoot at the panther mummy (2) until it explodes. After the mummy is dead, drop down to the valley floor. Jump into the pool that surrounds the obelisk and grab the two magnum clips (5, 6) that are at the bottom of the pool. Exit the water at the ledge with the vegetation and the palm trees. Vault onto the short platform in the corner and then face left and climb onto the ledge above it platform. Walk to the left until Lara is opposite the obelisk and take a running jump and grab to get onto it, and pick up the shotgun shells (7).
Sapphire Key #1
Get down by safety dropping off the obelisk on the side nearest the
sphinx. Go to the front of the sphinx and climb up between its paws
up to its chin. Then go around one side of the head to get around
behind the head, where Lara will find some shotgun shells (8) and a tunnel that leads to the first
Sapphire Key (9). |
After picking up the key, have Lara make her way back to the front of the sphinx and pull the block out at least once, and enter the tunnel. Use the sapphire key to open the door to Lara's right. Enter the tunnel which leads to a room with five statues. As soon as Lara exits the tunnel, face right and climb onto the first ledge above and to the right. Pick up the small Medi Pack (10), and ready pistols. Take a standing jump to the next ledge on the same side of the room, and a panther (3) will appear on the ground below. Kill it from above. Then take a jump across the gap in the middle of the room over to a ledge on the other side. Walk along the edge until Lara reaches the last ledge. Face right, where Lara can see a tunnel on the other side of the room. Ready a weapon, and take a standing jump across to the other side. Run down the tunnel until Lara reaches a slight slope, and begin back flipping away and start firing at the panther (4) that suddenly appears around the corner. Lara will either drop down into the gap, or back flip onto the opposite ledge. If Lara fell down, climb onto the opposite ledge to shoot at the panther until it's dead. Continue down the tunnel, then along a wide corridor with a bridge overhead. Lara will reach a large room with a ramp and a structure that houses an ornate statue of a cat along one wall. Ready pistols, if they've been put away, and shoot at the crocodile (5) running around on the floor, then safety drop down to the floor. Lara should be standing in front of a passageway. Run down the long passageway and grab the large Medi Pack (11) that was formerly unreachable because of the gate. Return to the large room. The ramp is a boulder trap and should be tripped now before proceeding. Either Lara can run over to the middle of the ramp, stand a block away from the ramp, and turn and face the doorway that the ramp leads up to. Take a side jump onto the ramp, and immediately another side jump off of it and the boulder will roll by. Otherwise she could run up from the base of the ramp and take a side flip when the boulder drops. Either way, after the boulder passes, run over to where it comes to a stop.
SECRET #1
Head right and up the slope in the corner. Jump over the slope and
enter the area behind the wall to get to SECRET #1. Grab the large
Medi Pack (12) and the magnum clips
(13), and exit this area.
|
Jump into the pool and swim into the tunnel in one corner. At
the end of the tunnel is a lever and a door. Throw the lever, and
immediately swim forward through the door, surface in the next room
and exit the water. Ready weapons, to kill the croc (6) swimming in the water below. |
Jump straight up and grab to pull up to the upper ledge. Find the brown block and push it twice along the narrow bridge. Climb onto the block and turn left. Perform a standing jump and grab onto the ledge above and enter the room with the hieroglyphics. Head up the steps and boost onto the highest step. Turn around and jump up to grab a ledge within the hole that is in the ceiling. Pull up and step forward to throw the switch at the end of the tunnel to extend a golden bridge in the room outside. Drop out of the hole back into the small room. Exit the small room by dropping off one side of the ledge to the ledge below. Return to the block and pull it twice to it's original position. Then pull it once along the wide ledge toward the gold bridge, and then get around behind the block and push it once. Then climb on top of the block, angle slightly to the left, and take a running jump and grab to get to the upper ledge with another brown block on it1. Push the block once, enter the room and throw the switch to open the trap doors above the gold bridge. Return to the ledge overlooking the room with the gold bridge. Pull the block twice, and then climb onto the block. Angle Lara slightly to the left, then take a running jump and grab to get to the gold bridge, then jump, grab and pull up into the room above. Throw the switch to make the floors around the cat statue outside fall away. Walk out to open ledge that faces the large room. Walk along the ledge to the left and take a standing jump onto a stone ledge outside. Walk out to the edge of the stones and take a running jump onto the natural stone formation hanging from the ceiling. Once over there, walk to the right, over the crest of the rock, and pick up some magnum clips (14). Then walk back to the left, and slide down the to the ledge below, where a small Medi Pack (15) is awaiting Lara. Take a running jump and grab to get to the stone out-cropping. Ready pistols and kill the croc (7) that's running around below, and then take a running jump onto the green roof of the structure that houses the cat statue. Grab the magnum clips (16) there.
SECRET #2
Now climb onto the "horn" nearest to the magnum clips, and
take a running jump across from the roof of the structure onto the top
of the doorway that the ramp leads down from, which is SECRET #2.
Pick up the Uzi clips (17).
|
Safety drop to the ground and run over to the cat statue. Safety drop
down the near left corner onto a green block below, then drop again
down to the floor. Avoid the dark area to one side with some steps
which is a trap that will collapse into a slippery ramp leading to
some spikes. Instead enter the tunnel on the other side and grab the
magnum clips (18) in an alcove
there. |
Drop down the dark hole across from the alcove with the clips. Move forward until Lara steps down to a lower ledge that faces a large darkened room. Ready pistols and pick off the two panthers (8, 9) running around in the darkness below. Turn around and vault up to a ledge to throw the switch behind her. The switch will open a trap door in the ceiling and let light enter the dark room2. To the left of Lara, on the ledge is a cat statue. Walk around behind the cat statue and pick up the magnum clips (19) that are in the alcove behind it. Safety drop into the room below. Reverse when Lara hits the ground, and ready a weapon. Magnums are recommended for the following task3. Side step to the left until Lara is near the corner. Run forward toward the opposite corner. Halfway across the room, a door on the right will open and two panthers (10, 11) will emerge. Begin back flipping away while shooting at the panthers. Lara will need to do some fancy jumping to keep enough distance between her and the two panthers4. When they are dead, enter the tunnel they emerged from and grab a large Medi Pack (20), then return to the main room and climb onto the stone block that is against the wall. Walk to the edge and jump up and grab to pull up to the ledge with the rope bridge.
SECRET #3
Cross the bridge and head to the left of the center column, and take a
running jump and grab to get to the ledge with the cat statue. Boost
up into the alcove, which is SECRET #3, and pick up the shotgun shells
(21). Now ready pistols, and take care
of the two panthers (12, 13)that have
emerged from the second doorway. After they two panthers are dead,
safety drop to the floor and enter the tunnel the last two panthers
emerged from and grab the small Medi Pack (22). Exit the tunnel and vault back up to the
top of the stone block. Jump up, grab, and pull up once more onto the
ledge with the rope bridge.
|
Ready weapons and enter the twisty tunnel. There is a panther mummy
(14) in the large room at the end of the
tunnel. This is one of the few enemies, for which no effective trick
was found to deal with it, but conveniently it appears near the end of
this level. Just run forward into the room, and take the bruises as
they come. Ready magnums3 and rush
forward into the room and fire and jump around until the panther mummy
explodes5. Don't use a Medi Packs
because there are no more enemies that Lara needs to worry about on
this level. Notice this large room has a large trapdoor in the
ceiling in one corner, and a nearby gold door high up on the wall.
|
Sapphire Key #2
Climb up into the passageway to the left of the tunnel Lara entered
from, and climb up the steps and then run up the slope. Climb onto
the column and grab the second Sapphire Key (23), then drop down off the column and run up
the sandy slope. At the top, Lara will find herself in a small room
overlooking the room with the five statues she visited earlier. Lara
should walk over to the far wall and face the three ledges. Take three
standing jumps to get to the third ledge and pick up the magnum clips
(24). Then take one more standing jump
to the ledge in the corner, then climb up to the ledge and throw the
switch which opens the large trapdoor under the mound of sand in the
room outside. |
Drop back down to the ledge in the corner, take a running jump and grab to get to the ledge that is far away, then another running jump to get back to the entrance. The mound of sand that Lara ran up earlier has now sifted down to the room below, so safety drop down into open trapdoor below and slide all the way to the bottom. When Lara reaches the bottom, vault up the side of the slope and then run back up the slope beside the one Lara just slid down. At the top take a jump to get into the room above. Enter the room and use the sapphire key to open the double doors. Run into the double doors to exit this level.
