Even if this is an “older” level, you do not need to use the revised WADs.
Choose Coastal Ruins from the menu.
Walk down the stairs
and once outside, 2 warthogs will attack; at the end of the path, you see
Crocodile Lake. Swim into the water and pick up a Small Medipack on the left,
continue over to the small island and kill the crocodile waiting there for you,
he leaves some shotgun ammo. Also on the Island is Crowbar. Kill any crocodiles
in the water as that will make life easier.
Dive into the water and
pick up Shotgun Normal Ammo on each side of the island, that may trigger some
more crocs but you need the ammo, so go for it. Swim to the opposite bank.
Shoot the barricade in the doorway, in a corner, pick up a Small Medipack, as
you approach the ledges, you trigger the spikes and you can get hold of the
Shotgun and some more Shotgun Ammo. Another boar will pester Lara and after
taking care of that boar go back outside.
Use the crowbar to
open the black iron door. There is a skeleton is waiting. On the left is a hole
in the floor you can blast him into. On the right are ladders. It is tricky to
jump to them as spikes will pop up. In the corner you can jump with an angle to
one of the ladders where Lara takes some damage, so be sure your health is
full. Once up the ladder climb up and then transfer to the left and end up on a
ledge.
As you enter the
opening around the corner, a skeleton attacks, you can lure him back to the
ledge and shoot him there. In this small maze are more skeletons, and also
Large Medipack and some Shotgun ammo to find and it is up to you if you want to
wake them and get the goodies. In the maze, take the first one the left, left
again, there is a pit to dispose of the skeletons. Behind the pit you see some
stairs and boulders. Climb the stairs and on top op the ramp save. Stand a bit
to the right (as the left boulder comes down first) and slide, at the end take
a curved jump over the pit to the left or else you will be flattened by the
boulder on the right.
Kill another warthog ,
go into the building that is surrounded by water and use the block to get onto
the roof, pick up the Gate Key and at the other end some Uzi ammo and climb
down, watch out another warthog attacks.
Shoot the barricade
and take the opening on the right with the green water. This is a timed jump
over 3 ledges that will start burning. Run jump to the first, on to the second,
turn and jump to the third and side flip right to safety. As you enter the
room, notice the closed iron gate, a skeleton wakes up, you can blow him into
the pool in the next room.
Jump into the pool,
this is a mirrored pool, so pay no attention to the other Lara. Swim to the
left opening (East), go right, left and right to find Secret # 1, Flares and
the Uzi. Get back to the pool. Now swim to the West opening, first left and
when you have a choice to the right. Keep on swimming it is a long way and at
the end you can climb out off the water. Get the Crossbow and save in front of
the opening. Climb into opening, slide down, get hold of those Explosive
Crossbow ammo, arm the crossbow and fire at the targets, that will deactivate
the spikes below. As you walk to the Sphinx on the wall it will drop the Golden
Token.
Grab the opening and crawl through, head up the stairs and kill a
crocodile. There is an opening at the back of that room and that passage climb
on the block and jump into the water. Keep the wall on your right side and swim
out. Climb
out of the pool as the iron gate at the beginning on the right, is now open. At
the end jump through the hole in the ceiling. Jump over that spike trap and
climb up and slide down. Get back into the building to the Egyptian Adventure
wall and now take the opening on the left and use your Token. Climb the rope.
Watch out for that skeleton.
In the next room, run
jump to the blue ledge and pick up the Shotgun Ammo, run jump to the next
ledge, get rid off the skeleton as he jumps toward you. Pick up the Torch and
throw it to the room below, jump back over and go down the ladder. Dispose of
this skeleton (there is a pit), use the Gate Key to unlock one door, then use
the Crowbar to open the opposite one, light your torch. Another skeleton runs
into the room, throw your torch down and take care of him. I did blast the
other skeleton laying in the room as I didn’t want him to follow me in the
maze. Get the now burning torch and enter the maze behind the door you unlocked
with the key.
Go right, corner,
straight, first right, over spikes, corner, another spikes, corner, first left,
corner, left and right an the rolling gate will open as you approach.
In the hall on the
left is a crawlspace, after crawling to the end is Secret # 2, Uzi ammo, get
back out and kill that warthog, get the torch continue ahead. Burn the rope
holding the boulder and jump into the opening, crawl through and down the other
side. Take a few steps and watch the fly by and kill the warthogs that come
after Lara.
In the 1st door on the
left, climb up and crawl through to find a Secret # 3, Small Medipack and some
Uzi ammo, return to the doors area. Go into the 3rd door, a skeleton attacks
and if you wait before that corridor another skeletons wakes up.
The corridor is full
of spikes so sprint through it.
Watch the flyby, Slide
down the slope to the ledge below, have your weapon of choice ready, jump to
the ledge on the left. Step on both blue tiles on the ledges, climb on top of
that structure as there is the third blue tile, the ladder is on a pillar in
the NE). More skeletons and step also on that tile. Climb back down and find
the ladder to climb down to ground level. There are also some skeletons there
as well. Also dispose of the crocodiles and jump into the pool and West wall
are the gates you just opened, go in and grab your Gate Key. Use your key and
go through the shimmering door to end the level.
