LEVEL 1 – CITY OF VILCABAMBA

Once you start pick up the supply drop right next to you. (1-4) SHOTGUN, shotgun shells, small medpack, large medpack. Proceed down the hall and enter the level proper, running right to a small waterfall area. Some (1-3)bats will attack you here. Jump over a slopped rock opposite the waterfall and land on a safe surface, turning right and jumping towards the wooden roof of the adjacent building. More (4-6)bats will attack you as you're doing this.  The flat surface on the roof has (SECRET #1) (5)small medpack. Safely drop down off of the roof.

Enter the small hut which roof you just raided, pulling out your guns since a (7)bear will jump out and attack you. Keep your guns drawn after it's dead because the fight isn't over. A large pack of (8-14)wolves will home in on your location. After the area is finally clear make your way under the waterfall you were on top of a few moments ago to find a (6)small medpack on the ground. Jump into the small pool next to you and lure out a (15)croc to the surface and make the water safe. Swimming further into it you will find an UW lever on the wall that needs pulling, which shows a door open up in the area close to us.

Once you exit the pool head into the building opposite the bear hut and go through the door we opened. Climbing up you will see another (16)wolf to your left. You will find yourself on an overlook with a view of the ground floor. Face west and you will see tilted safe tiles on the wooden roof of the a building to your right. Make a running jump there and hop on over to the stone platform to get (SECRET #2) (7-8)large medpack and magnum rounds. More (17-18)wolves and a (19)bear will start running around underneath. Try and pacify them from your safe position. Slide off of the roof and land safely on the ground floor once ready to proceed.

Ready your guns as the area is crawling with enemies. The south building has (20-22)wolves that need neutralizing. This area has a movable block in one of the corners. Position it in a way in which you can reach the far end of the upper floor of the building. The middle area has (9)uzi clips on the floor. The far end has a window from which you can jump over to the adjacent building. Do so and keep running forward across the breakaway tiles until you drop to safety, avoiding the spike trap. Adjust the movable block in this room under the switch higher up on the wall so you can pull it, the camera will show a door open somewhere. The second switch will open the door in the current room so you can leave. Watch out as you will immediately get ambushed by a (23)bear when the door opens.

Approach the north building with your guns drawn. (24-25)Wolves reside inside. A (10)large medpack is in a dark corner of the room. Go behind the building you're in. More (26-28)wolves will assault you. There are (11)shotgun shells in the passageway where they once were. Go to the northwest corner of the area and you will see an opening above you. To get this secret you can either move the block from the southern building all the way under it so you can use it as leverage or you can make a tricky jump by bouncing off the sloped tile and grabbing the very leftmost edge of the platform. Either way you will find (SECRET #3) (12)small medpack for your troubles.

Now that the area is looted, head east to return to the starting area. Enter the western building again and go up once more, this time proceeding through the obvious passageway at the overlook. Some (29-32)bats will attack you as you approach the ledge. Following the path close to the wall you will emerge in an area overlooking the temple. Looking left you will notice a switch high above. Make a running jump to the slopes  near the wall that lead to it, grabbing the edge as you slide down. Shimmy all the way to the right and pull up onto a safe block. More (33-34)bats will come flying at you. Jump up to the switch and pull it then swan dive into the pool below.

Go back to the area with with the three buildings and you will see that the gate to the west has opened. Enter and dive down into the small pool to collect the (13)GOLD IDOL. Make your way back to the temple and head into the passageway east of it. Dispatch a (35)croc in the water before jumping in and making your way over to the other side, where an open door awaits. You will slide into a new area.

Going down the passageway jump on top of the broken pillar on the ground and into the opening to the left. You will come into a room with a pool and a lot of dart traps. There is a (36)croc in the water that needs killing. Avoid the dart traps and pull the switch at the end. Jump into the pool and find an UW lever behind a pillar. Pull it and get out of the water, returning to the previous area. The door to the east should now be open.

Run in with your guns drawn, heading to the room on the right where you'll find (37-38)wolves taking a nap. Pull the movable block in the wall twice and go into the dead end hallway where it was to get (14)small medpack. Jump on top of the movable block and onto the upper floor where you'll find a (15)SILVER KEY. Roll and draw your guns, taking out some (39-41)bats that want a nibble out of you. Dropping down you will get assaulted by more (42-44)wolves. In the previous room with the small pool, pick up some (16)shotgun shells behind the pillar near the edge. Dive in and go through the passageway to find an UW lever that needs pulling. Return to the pool to get some air in your lungs.

Dive again and go through the second passage that just opened. As you start swimming down three boulder traps will be triggered, urging you to swim forward and upwards to safety before they crush you. Once the traps are dealt with dive deeper and into another tight passageway. You will eventually emerge in a room with waterfalls all around you. Before going up, there is a tight crevice in one of the walls at the bottom of the pool which contains (SECRET #4) (17-18)shotgun shells and magnum rounds. Ascend the room by jumping block to block, shimmying on the stone wall and you will get another (19)SILVER KEY for your troubles. Drop back into the pool and backtrack all the way back to the hallway with the broken pillar sticking out of the ground.

Some (45-47)wolves will try to ambush you upon your return. Once they are dealt with go south towards another open area with a small temple. More (48-50)wolves will wake up from their slumber and try and attack you. The left passage of the temple has a switch guarded by a swinging blade trap. Time it right and pull it down. There are some (20)shotgun shells hidden amongst the pottery next to the switch. The right passageway of the temple is now open. Go in and dispatch the (51-52)wolves in the next room. Pull out the movable block from the corner and haul it all the way below the second one lodged a block higher. Go into the passageway where you pulled the block from and push the second block onto the one you set up under it to create a stack. Go back and climb the blocks to reach the upper floor. Pull the switch and leave the room.

Head left upon dodging the swinging blade trap again. You will notice a spike pit in front of you. Hop over it and search the bush behind the colorful slanted tile to get (SECRET #5) (21-22)large medpack and shotgun shells. Now climb onto the platform in the corner and jump onto the trap door we raised a moment ago. Make a running jump to the roof of the temple. Some (53-57)bats will attack you as you try and reach for the (23)small medpack. Running jump back to the trap door and onto the platform filled with vegetation adjacent to it. There are (24)shotgun shells hidden behind the shrubs. Jump and grab a crevice you can shimmy on towards the skull wall with a keyhole, at which you can use one of your silver keys. Drop down safely onto the ground floor.

Head east to the opposite corner where you started climbing to find another platform you can use as leverage to get higher. One of the rocky platforms has more (25)shotgun shells on it. Jump platform to platform until you reach the second skull wall. Use your second silver key here and the door to the temple should now be open. Drop down safely and walk in to find another (26)GOLDEN IDOL. The camera will show a gate open somewhere. Make your way back to the pool room with the dart traps to find it. It leads back to the main temple area.

Approach the right side of the temple and insert one of the golden idols into the receptacle to open the door. You will find a room with a spike pit in the center. Traverse the breakaway tiles and ascend to the safe platform that leads to a window. One you're up there a trap door will raise to your left to create a shortcut. Pull the switch to your right before dropping down onto the orange colored roof below. Run to the opposite side of the roof to grab a (27)small medpack.

Drop down from the roof and insert the second golden idol into the receptacle to gain access to the left passageway of the temple. Simply climb the platforms in the room, killing some more (58-64)bats as they trigger on certain tiles. Make a tricky running jump and grab the sill of the window you can go through. Pull the switch to your left after sliding down. The door to the temple is now fully open. Drop down to the ground floor and finish the level by going through the temple's main doors.
