Level 1: Kabul, Afghanistan

You drop from a helicopter and land on a tall box. Safety drop to the ground. Go south and east and hop onto a low box. Notice a trap door in the ground to the south-east. Run and jump to grab the ledge to the north. Pull up into the opening and pick up a small medipack. Safety drop to the ground. Ignore the guards and they do not shoot at you. You have no weapons anyway.

Go east and north and find an opening in a fence. Follow the fence to the south and then west along the front of a building. Go around the end of the building and find flares near a bush. Go to the front of the building and pull up onto the roof. Run and jump to grab the edge of the tower to the south. Pull up into the opening and press the wall button. You get a short cut scene showing a gate opening. Safety drop to the ground and go east into the open gate. You are in a small cave. Pick up crossbow explosive ammo from the dark corner behind a bush. Go east and around the corner to see a gate. Crouch down and pick up the pistols in the bush.

Exit the area and go south. The woman at the fire and the guard beside the car are inert. Go west to the open trap door in the ground. Climb down the west wall ladder. Back flip into a tunnel and a gate closes behind you. Go south and step on a breakable tile. Hop back while it breaks. Climb down a wall ladder into the hole. You seem to be in a cave.

The gate at the back of the small cave is open. Go east and enter the next cave area. You can see a block and a door at the south wall. Hop up onto the north-east and north-west corner ledges and press the two wall buttons on the north wall. Go south and there is an open tunnel. The two boxes at the sides are empty.

Go through the south tunnel and then go trough a crawl space. Continue south and pull up into a very wide eight-sided tunnel. Continue south to jump into another tunnel. Pull up at the end into a street. Go to the south-west corner and attract a thug. Run to the east and a guard will shoot the thug for you. Pick up Uzi ammo from the body. You can enter the alley where the thug came from but there is nothing to get.

Go south-east and carefully get behind the burning ambulance. Pick up two large medipacks from the ground. The boxes to the south are empty. Return to the middle of the street area. Go south to the fence and two thugs shoot at you from the other side. You cannot shoot back through the fence. Go east or west and pull up to the top of the sloped column. Side down into the area behind the fence and you get a statistics screen. Hit ESC and the next level loads.

Level 2: Military Prison in Kabul

You get a flyby showing Lara in a prison cell. You have no weapons. The girl in the cell is inert. Go to the north platform and pick up a small medipack. Go east and wait about a minute and the door will open in the east wall. You can see someone outside the east windows. Do not get close to the windows, as the barbed wire can damage you through the window. Go north and look west to see sentry guns, Jump over the pipe at the north wall. Get into the crawl space in the north wall. Grab the edge on the other side but do not drop or you die. Shimmy to the right around the corners and pull up into another crawl space. Crawl through a trench and a guard is above you. You get a short flyby of the corridor and see a security camera.

You see a key lock but do not have a key. Go south into the next alcove and press the wall button. You get a cut scene of a gate rising. Crawl back through the trench and a guard shoots at you. Shimmy over the deadly hole again and return to the starting corridor. Go south and enter the raised gate. Hop over the ledge and go south. You can see a broken sentry gun and laser traps behind a fence. Press a small pushbutton on the block with the pipes. The gate opens behind you.

Follow the new tunnel to a wall. Go around to the right side and jump over the pipes. Go to the south-west corner and jump over the short fence. Pick up flares and you hear something open. Go north and you can see a woman preening herself in the mirror. You can pull up into the tunnel in the west wall but it is deadly. Exit the room and go south to see that the fence is open. Be careful of the laser and go south-west. Press the button on the tube structure. Go south and run behind the block structure. Press the button on the east side of the block structure. You hear a trap door open behind you.

Go to the east wall and climb down the ladder. You drop in front of a closed gate. Go west and get a flyby of a guard at the end of the corridor. There seems to be two kinds of guards. The guards in a brown uniform do not shoot unless you shoot them first. The other guards will shoot when they see you. Hop onto the block at the north wall. Press the pushbutton and see barbed wire on the top of the blocks to the west. Press the pushbutton again and the barbed wire retracts. Go west and get the guard's attention. He shoots at you but he also follows you. Get onto the blocks and go east over the blocks with the barbed wire pop-ups. Go east and drop down onto the block with the pushbutton. When the guard is on the top blocks, press the pushbutton and the barbed wire kills the guard. Press the pushbutton again to retract the barbed wire. Jump onto the blocks and pick up the Door Key from the dead body.

Go west and drop down onto a block. Press another pushbutton and doors open in the east side of the room. Get down and press the pushbutton on the west wall.

Run down the tunnel and then up a tunnel into a large room. You hear the secret sound and get secret #1. Go east and hop up into a tunnel for a small medipack. Drop back and go into the north-east corner for MP5 extra ammo. Go into the north-west corner for MP5 normal ammo. Return through the tunnel back to the room with the prisoner and dead guards.

Climb the ladder again and shimmy to the left side to drop. On the right side is the laser trap. Carefully get around the laser and go north into the starting corridor. As you past a closed door, the door opens and another prisoner escapes. He looks like the twin brother of the first prisoner. You can enter his cell but I found nothing inside. Continue north and return through the crawl space and shimmy over the deadly floor. Crawl through the trench again and the guard above shoots at you and yells some obscenity. You arrive back at the key lock. Use the key and the door fence opens behind you.

Run and jump and you can clear the slopes to get through the diamond shaped tunnel to the north. A sentry gun may shoot at you as you jump. Go west and turn the corner. A sentry gun shoots at you. Crouch down before the sentry gun can shoot a flame at you. Crawl beside the boxes and go east. Pick up Desert Eagle ammo behind another sentry gun. Crawl into the north-east corner and pull back a moveable cage. Get behind the cage and enter the crawl space in the north wall.

Stop at a junction and wait for a moving laser trap to pass. Stand up and go east. Crouch under a pipe and pick up Uzi ammo. Continue east and you can crawl under the moving laser trap. Pick up a laser sight near a fan and the door opens in the corner. Enter the open door and crouch down. Crawl south past a sentry gun and a steam blower. Stand up near a moveable cage. Move the cage and pick up the Desert Eagle. You hear a trap door open. Do not go near the inert guard. Sprint north out of the room to attract the sentry gun's attention. Crawl back to the south wall. Do not go near the ammo on the floor. But use the Desert Eagle and laser sight to destroy the sentry gun. Now you safely pick up the Desert Eagle ammo. You could return to the earlier room with the sentry guns and destroy them to get more Desert Eagle ammo. I did not bother as I think that I had enough.

Go north and pick up a small medipack on the block near the sentry gun. Stand jump to the north-east to grab the edge of the upper open trap door. Pull up into a tunnnel and go east to a T-junction. Go south and hop up into a small storage room. Go south and pick up Desert Eagle ammo from a small green box. The three breakable boxes are empty. Shoot the fuse panel on the upper east wall. Jump up there and pull down the switch. Get down and go north. Continue past the fan and climb the wall ladder. Pull up through the open gate and into a high tunnel. Go east and see a hole in the floor.

Drop into a hole next to a fire. Go north behind a pipe and open a small green box for MP5 normal ammo and an Uzi. You also hear a gate open. Go south and run and jump over the fire. Enter the open gate and crawl to the south. When the crawl space widens, turn to the right for Desert Eagle ammo. Continue south and stand up next to two fans. Carefully go east between the fans and pull down a switch in a broken fuse panel. Hop down and go south through the open door. Step onto a breakable tile and hop back while it breaks.

Safety drop into the hole. Shoot a huge rat that drops on top of you. Push the climbable moveable cage to the east. Jump into the top and see a jump switch on the upper north wall. You have to make a difficult angled jump to pull down the jump switch. Stand at the corner of the block. Aim a little left of the jump switch. Stand jump with a right curve and you should be able to grab the jump switch and pull it down. There is also a laser trap near the ceiling. When you make the jump a gate opens to the east. The TRLE help forum has a savegame posted by Angeuk with the jump finished.

Go east and time a jump over the fire. Go through the open gate and get a flyby of a sentry gun and a leaning guard. Enter the tunnel and look north. Destroy the sentry gun and shoot the guard at the far north ledge. Jump with a curve between the slopes and land on a flat tile near a fire emitter. You have to get lucky. I did not find a good starting position or time. Run and jump to the north ledge. Pick up Desert Eagle ammo from the dead guard. Go to the north-west corner and pick up crossbow poison ammo from the floor. Hop onto the console and press the pushbutton on the west wall. You get a cut scene of a trap door opening near the fans from earlier.

Go south and again you have to get lucky to land on the flat tile without getting burned. From there it is easy to jump between the slopes to get to the tunnel exit. Time another jump over the fire emitter. Push the cage to the west wall and climb back up into the room with the fans. Safety drop through the open trap door. You seem to have dropped into a kitchen. The box on the west ledge is empty. Hop onto the west ledge and go north and press the pushbutton on the wall. On the north side of that wall you can find MP5 normal ammo on the floor. You can pick up crossbow poison ammo from the east ledge behind the woman cook. Ignore the guard and go north. You can see a water hole near the north wall.

Go to the end and jump into the hole at the north-west corner. Press the pushbutton on the east wall. You get a cut scene of an underwater trap door opening. Jump out and go south and back into the kitchen.

Save the game before dropping into the water hole. Drop into the hole and a fan sucks you down. Swim into a hole and pull an underwater lever on the west wall. Roll and swim east and up into an upper room. Swim behind the fan for crossbow normal ammo. Pick up an MP5 and the gate opens in the east wall above you.

Swim south and pull up to shoot three guards. Jump up onto the south ledge and pick up crossbow poison ammo. Search the bodies for Uzi ammo and Desert Eagle ammo.

Go to the front of the large central structure and jump into the large south corridor.

Go south and destroy a sentry gun and press a pushbutton. A gate opens above you in the west wall. Face north and shoot a guard. For some reason, the guard fell and lay suspended in mid-air.
