3 Secrets
After
landing in a cave, pick up the mushrooms
in front of you, Turn right, go to the S wall and get some more mushrooms there. Go right into the
corner and grab up left into a crawlspace for Secret #1, the Wheel of Law Artefact. Drop, go up a ladder E and get the Flares in that passage, hop though the
gap into a dark basement with a wooden gate. When you walk left into the room,
a flyby will show you around.
Open the Gate.
Climb
up left of the Torch (S) and shoot a soldier who will drop an MP5. Shoot the crate in the passage and
grab a Laser sight. The hatch on top
of the steps is closed, so turn back and go right into the area with the crates.
Use the floor lever in the E alcove and that gate below opens up.
Get
down and enter, shoot a soldier and get MP5
ammo, the passage left is blocked so go right and crawl through. Go
straight to the edge of the large room, turn around and hang into the room.
Shimmy left and pull up in the next alcove, run jump over to the floor, grab
some MP5 ammo, hop back and hang
from the edge to shimmy right into the gap. Look right and spot a low crevice,
crawl in there for Magnum ammo. Go
out and straight (S), open the gate with the lever and grab the ceiling and go
along the monkey swing till you hit the wall in front so the soldiers stop
firing. Hop on the ledge left and run right into the passage shooting two
soldiers. Be quick about it or they can use their Bazooka and you’re doomed.
One leaves MP5 ammo behind.
Follow
through to a room with a push able statue, push it once and grab the Magnum, which was underneath. Grab the
crate right of the statue and shimmy left around the corner, push the statue
once again and grab the Medipack
behind you before using the lever to open the gate.
Shoot a Gem, open the Hatch.
But
first… You now have Magnum and sight, so go back to the monkey climb in the
room with the deadly pool and look down in the pool to spot a large statue with
a Gem on its belly, shoot the Gem and the hatch opens. Return to where you
pushed the statue, go through the gate and follow through to the basement.
Climb up left and go through to the steps.
Outside, Temple Ruins.
You have to grab up to the still closed
part of the grate, then quickly go around shooting the soldiers, there are four
of them and one leaves some Magnum ammo
behind. Two might be hiding at the N side of the stairs near a tent.
Go back and at the stairs look up to
the left (E) to spot a Bell behind a statue. Bit tricky to shoot it when the
lady spreads her arms like that, but zoom in and aim for the lower right hand
side of the Bell. A block goes down behind the Buddha statue behind you, get in
there to grab Secret
#2, the Reliquary Tower
Artefact. In last alcove on the left
(N) are also some Flares.
Now go out S to the yard, there’s a
snake you can shoot, but you can also just let it be. Go to the window in the
middle of the wall W (between the piles of rubble), the one partially blocked
by a cave-in. Look up over the gate and side flip into that opening, drop out
the other end.
Elephant
Square.
This yard has some enemies, a couple
of Tigers left in the bamboo forest and an Elephant running around making a
racket. You can shoot it or choose to let it live. Pass left through the bamboo
bush and turn right into a cave.
Jungle
Temple, a Torch.
Looking out over the river below, hop
right around the corner and hop up into the arches, left are Torches, grab a Torch and you’ll also get a screen
where to use it. Ignite the Torch in the alcove and get out to the rocky ledge
you came from. Run jump with the Torch to the corner ledge (W on the darkest
part of the rock). Then turn right and jump up to a ledge in front of a gate.
Turn left a bit and hop to the gates where you can ignite the wall torch behind
a tree.
The
Golden Buddha.
Walk to the steps in front of the left
gate that opened, drop the Torch as you don’t need it anymore and climb down
the vegetation from the end of the steps into the canyon below (also the way
back up). Watch out for a crock and a snake. Turn around and go right into the
cave, back flip onto a slanted rock and jump to grab the wooden platform with
the Golden Buddha on top.
Use
the Buddha.
Go back outside and left around the
corner, jump and grab the colorful plants under the left steps (where you just
came down) and go up, through the open gate and use the Buddha in the next
room. The door left opens up, go through to Buddha Square. Jump down into the
pool.
The
Buddha Shrine, the Jungle Sword.
Go to the N side of the pool; grab a Medipack after shooting a tiger. In the
pool are two grates, one on each side; shoot them. Go to the Buddha Shrine and
get the Magnum ammo in the alcove on
the left (N) then jump into the alcove behind the Buddha, turn around and find
a jump lever on the roof there.
It is a Timed lever and opens a gate
in the S opening of the pool (where you shot the grate). Use the lever, turn
right and walk up the slope a bit, then hop up to the floor and get into the
pool fast. Though the open gate on the left (S) and pull the chain.
Swim out and climb out of the pool on
the left (W). Go through the door and in the next area go to the right and
shoot that stone Monkey Warrior. He comes alive, kill him and pick up the Jungle Sword he drops. Go to the SW
corner and climb the wall (face E). At the crack, shimmy to the corner left and
then climb over the crack to the ceiling. Use the forward key to get to the
monkey climb. Turn to the left and swing all the way to the other side, then
around the corner into an alcove. Here you need the Sword to pull the broken
lever.
Drop down and go back to the pool, now
the N side in the pool is open. Get out of the water.
The
Khmer Key.
Grab Flares to the right. In front of the statue is the Khmer Key, when you pick it up a Wraith
appears. Roll run to the right of the water hole, turn left and climb the wall.
Go off left and turn left to climb up. Down and jump left to the ledge where
you can use the Key, a gate opens up and possibly the Wraith goes there already
to kill itself. Jump to the other side and get the MP5 ammo. Then drop down, go up the stairs behind the statue and up
into the open gate left (this is the place where the wraith went). When you
step next to the bowl, another gate opens in the opposite wall. Climb in there
and up the ladder, follow through and you get back at the Buddha puzzle.
Back
to Elephant Square.
Go out and climb down to the river, up
the grassy slopes S and shoot a tiger, turn left at the big tree and run jump
to the E through the gap between the trees, go left and then right back into
the cave to Elephant Square.
Through
the Basement.
Go up to the Temple and the right hand
window, jump in and go straight into the alcove (W), do not use the lever, it
is a trap. Turn around and jump up to grab a crawlspace, turn around in there
and use the jump lever to de-activate spikes in the basement.
Go back down, go into the alcove in
the N wall and use the lever, you’ll drop down. Follow through go to the right
and get the Magnum ammo, then go to
the other side (E), pick up a Medipack
and open the crowbar door with the Sword.
The
Temple Ruins.
Stand left, turn around and quickly
drop down into the next area, turn left and run NE where you can jump up near a
crate with a Laptop, here you are best protected and can just wait till the
soldiers come around the corner one by one. They leave MP5 ammo and a Medipack.
There are mushrooms just below where
you are and also in the corner where you came down before, next to the banana
tree.
The
Ancient Shaft Key.
From next to the crate with the Laptop
you can hop into the arch N, you need a Key here because of a closed door. Go
to the left over the rubble and then jump a bit right onto the balcony. Inside
is where we come back later to use the Emerald Orb. From the balcony jump to
the grassy arch W, climb up left and shoot a soldier, get the Ancient Shaft Key.
The
Emerald Orb.
Jump back to the passage with the
closed door (near the crate with the Laptop) and open the door now. Go through
and to then opposite wall (N), crawl into the crevice in the dark passage.
When you can stand pick up the MP5 ammo then turn around, jump grab up
to the cave above. In the corner are some Flares.
On the left (E) is a crawlspace (use
Ctrl to get in it) and grab Secret #3, the
Bodhi Tree Artefact, drop out and go
into the next area.
On the right on top of a wooden crate
is MP5 ammo. Turn around and
dive/jump over the balustrade (N) and grab the Naga Key. Jump back to the ground floor.
Straight ahead between the statues is Magnum ammo (a tiger will pester you).
Up the stairs behind the balustrade you can find more Magnum ammo. Go to the W side and grab the monkey swing and go to
the top of the wooden boxes.
Use the Naga Key and safety drop down.
Climb the block that appeared at the staircase and climb even higher.
Shoot both the two-headed tigers and
now you can get the Green Orb. On
the W wall down the steps is MP5 ammo.
Get down to the ground floor and out through the crawlspace (N). Some soldiers
will be waiting for you. Go out the door (S) and jump over the rubble to the
right.
Jump over to the balcony and enter. In
here are two cages and some big doors, go left at those door and stand with
your back against the wall and then jump forwards to the jump lever on the
wall. Now enter the cage and place the Orb. Go through the doors and down the
stairs to leave this Temple.
