SECRET VALLEY

Level by Marion Hundertmark (Commari)

Unauthorized walkthrough by Gerty


Lara slides into a lake and in the south, on the left a bit, is an opening, so swim in and at the end up. You better be quick about it as a croc appears. There is nothing to find here, so walk into the opening and at the end climb up. A scorpion lurks there and at the end you see a fast floating river.

You better climb down backwards and start shimmying to the right. Around a corner and at the second block, do a back flip.

Face west and a standing jump to the rocks there; shimmy to the right and at the end climb up. Get into the crawlspace and find SECRET #1, the Uzi and ammo. Turn around (facing west) and lower yourself in the water. Climb back up on the ledge. Jump NE to another ledge and a running jump with grab to the next one. With another jump you end up in the water but it is save there. Look out over the waterfall onto the lake. A vulture swoops down, so shoot it. The minute you jump to the rock on the left another vulture has a go at Lara.
Nothing more to do than jump into the water and into that corridor (E).

You see a gate and a Star behind it and a scorpion is nibbling Lara’s foot. Nothing to do here, so turn around and enter the opening under the waterfall. Another scorpion is there and in the left some uzi ammo. Turn north and crawl into that crawlspace. Watch out as a croc is hiding there. After killing it, follow that corridor till you see water. Get in and swim left, follow through and at the end, climb out. Find flares and on the south wall a Jump lever as this opens a gate halfway in the next corridor you have to swim in.

Swim back and you better get some air at the first (taking the opening on the right) before you continue as the next part is breathtaking and you even might loose some health.

Underground lake

At the south wall is an opening and there you also find a small medipack.
Are you ready for some jumping? First one is a running jump north, then there is monkey climbing, around one pillar to the west, then a running jump plus grab to the north again. Then again a running jump, now to the west and another one with grab, to the north.
Take the flares in the west and in the east, under a skeleton is the Crowbar.

Return to the south wall and start the long, long swim back. Go through the waterfall to the other opening. In the corner, near the gate is some uzi ammo and you better save before going into the opening in the north.

Once the boulder is gone go up the ramp again and use the Crowbar on the door.

Warehouse

There are guards here, so watch it. You see a closed door in the north, for now enter the corridor west. If you light a flare you see three pushable blocks there on the south wall.

You can just take the middle one, pull it and get that one out of the way. Enter and find some flares on a crate and shoot the grate in front of that crawlspace. Crawl in and in the small room use the Crowbar on the left crate and use the button inside. The gate opposite opens and run down the stairs.

Sewers

A guard patrols there and get the uzi ammo he leaves behind. At the east is a monkey climb and the gate there opens as you approach it.

A working guy there is pretty annoyed when he spots Lara. Jump over the water and in the far SW corner, on top of the locker room is a small medipack and in the locker room is another annoyed employer and you can find some uzi ammo there if he didn’t steal it.

On the yellow structure you can find shotgun ammo.

Go to the east wall en enter the corridor and watch out for a couple of pits with spikes and you are at another part of the sewers. There is also a guard and go east to find that monkey climb to get to the other side and into the opening there.

Follow through and jump down and get the Shotgun and ammo on the orange crate and the Sun Talisman (Star) on the wall. Before you leave this room, there is a jump switch above the opening there (camera shot). If the camera seams to be stuck, jump back once.

Go back, over the sewer, corridor with spike pits, over the water and sewer, up the stairs, through the crawlspace and in the next room, into the open door.

UFO

Run up the stairs and open the door at the top. Kill the guard and open the door to the bathroom. In the right stall you’ll find shotgun ammo. If you light a flare you see a pushable block between the tables. Pull it out of the way and in the next room a guard leaves some shotgun ammo. Get into the cage and behind the chairs (E) shoot the grate. Crawl in and shoot another grate.

Train tracks

A working guy isn’t too pleased to see Lara, so shoot him and on the right, further down the track, you see a door, push it open.

Go straight ahead, through another door and kill the guard inside. Around the corner is a jump switch (camera shot). You can climb the stairs. In the crane room is a guard and in the water, between all the floating aliens in the NE corner is the Uzi and in the room, behind the stairs some uzi ammo.

Now go out to the tracks again and find east a grate to shoot. Crawl in and climb the ladder. Another grate is blocking a crawlspace and at the end shoot also the other one. A workman is patrolling, he leaves some shotgun ammo behind. Now go to the train tracks and to the left and outside to the Pyramid.

Pyramid

There is nothing else to do than climb the stairs and enter the building. Inside lying around you can find some uzi ammo and a small medipack. Go east and climb down the ladder. Once down, in the corner is a golden gate still closed.

Look west, left and right are two rooms, there are nasty big Dragonflies and there is a crawlspace in the north wall. Climb in and lower yourself into the room

Block Puzzle Room

There are four block in the corner and they need to be pushed against the structure. The door in the corridor is open, so climb through the crawlspace back and into a new room. Lower yourself down and once down have a look around, watch out for those Dragonflies though. There is nothing here to find. Go onto what looks like rail tracks and in the west lower yourself down once again. Look east and around it (left) and take the first opening on the right. Find some uzi ammo and the Sun Talisman # 2 (Star).

Get out and notice a closed door. There are four block in this room that need pushing, They need to stand on the corresponded tile. Go through the open door and follow through. You are in an alien ship and better watch out for those Dragonflies. In the west is a door and behind the screen the aliens should be watching are two receptacles for the Stars. Place them en enter the door that is open now. Pick up the Gem and run to the left and you will hit the finishing trigger.

I missed one secret in the second level. So if you find it, please let me know.
