Natla's Mines

Lara begins this level underwater and stripped of all weapons. Swim
for the waterfall and surface behind it. Go down the tunnel and use
the switch on the left to open a door. Go back to the falls and dive
in and swim to the other side. Climb out and enter the tunnel to the
right of the crate. Find the block and pull it out of the mound then
enter the passage it was blocking. Use the switch to open a second
door then return to the water and the boat. Swim back to the falls
and go down that passage again. Climb to the sloped passage and
follow it until you can jump to a ledge with a barricade it. Follow the
tunnel to a room with a large glass structure. Get the medkit then
enter the next room with the two condemned houses. Find and pull
the block out twice towards some tires then hop ontop and jump to
the roof of the house. You'll fall through and end up inside where
you can go down a tunnel and use a switch to make the boat return
to the dock. Go to the end of the tunnel and slide down grabbing the
right ledge and dropping to the ground. Follow the tracks to the
wood door which opens for you. Now comes the TRICKY PART! Do
this exactly! - Walk towards the first barricade until the boulder
begins to roll. - Jump the first barricade then do a series of running
jumps to get over the other 3. - As you jump the 3rd barricade turn
to the right in mid-air to land on a hill and enter the passage before
the boulder flattens you. If you were successful then Indiana Jones
would be proud, otherwise you will need to return to the first
barricade and try again. Inside the tunnel get the fuse. Head up
until another boulder starts rollings then run back and to the left.
Go up the hill on the left as another boulder rolls by. Drop into the
hole at the top to reenter the room with 2 boulders. Climb the hill
to get back to those two houses and make your way back to the
water with the boat. Swim over and climb into the boat then leap
over to the crates. Climb up the left crate and find the tunnel
behind it. Inside are lots of NATLA boxes and one of them is a
"movable block". Pull it once then push it left. Now pull the box
behind it out twice and pull it right to gain access to a passage with
another switch. Use it to activate the giant drill machine. Return to
the docs and go to tunnel to the right of the crates that the drill
machine HAD been blocking. Find and push a block forward until you
can enter the next room. Get on the block and then climb up through
a hole to find another switch that opens another door. Grab some
ammo for your Uzi (in case you get it back) then drop back down. Go
forward and into the next room and get another fuse then return to
the docks and make your way back to those two houses. Go inside
the left one and follow the tunnel inside to the fork where you can
go left and use the switch to start the conveyor belt. Go back to the
fork and find the 3rd fuse then return to the room with the glass
structure and enter it from the right. Get some magnum ammo and
then use the 3 fuses in the slots to gain access to a new house.
Enter the house and get the pistols before climbing to the roof and
jumping into the tunnel. Just inside is a hole which you can jump to
and climb up. A gate will open leading to a deadly trap. The obvious
trap door below will plunge you into hot lava if you stand on it so
instead - slide down the slope backwards and grab the edge as you
fall. Climb back up and the door will shut and stay shut from now on.
Cross and get SECRET #1 - shells and Uzi clips then use the switch
to open the gate and return to the first tunnel. Go to the end of the
tunnel and do a safety drop then swim to the docks. Exit the water
and enter the tunnel with the drill machine. Go around the NATLA
box and into the next tunnel where you find your magnums. Too bad
some guy is using them to blast you. Kill him as quickly as possible
and try not to fall in the lava tubes. If he runs then chase him. Once
he is dead take your hard earned magnums back and heal yourself.
Leap towards the switch on the far wall. You just miss the ledge but
you can grab the ledge below taking a good amount of damage. Slide
down the hill and grab the bottom edge. Let go and grab again to
grip the crevice just below and shimmy to the ledge on your right.
Enter the lava room on the right and jump to the ledge on the left.
Now begin a series of tricky (and deadly) jumps from pillar to pillar
until you can jump into the tunnel on the right wall. Go forward and
push the block quickly to avoid the boulder rumbling towards you.
Once that's over you can pull the block back and get on it to access
SECRET #2 - Uzi clips and a medkit. Run down the tunnel in the
corner and drop to some more tracks. Take the medkit and the Uzi
clips and grab the Shotgun (if you really think you'll need it). Go
back to the previous room and drop down the hole behind the
boulder then leap to the pillar in the lava tunnel. Turn right and do a
series of jumps across three pillars then drop and enter the tunnel
below. Slide to the bottom of the slope then jump to the ledge.
Climb up and enter the room with the TNT. Fine the one that's not
like the others. Pull it into the next room - out once - right once -
then 3 pulls into the next room. Now jump (or climb) over it and push
it 3 times until you can get on it and jump into the tunnel. Go to the
top and climb to the ledge then do a leap to the ledge on the right.
Wait for the tunnel to spit out another boulder then leap into it and
follow it to the switch. Get the magnum clips and use the switch to
create a cave-in in the TNT room. Now return to the room with the
TNT box. Go to the new hole on the left and enter the passage. This
next room has your Uzi's but once again - they are being used for
EVIL. Some punk-ass kid on a skateboard is taking cheap shots at
you. He's fast but he doesn't attack often so waste him with your
magnums and take back your Uzi's. You should now have ALL your
weapons back!! Scattered about this room are 3 Uzi clips so retrieve
them then start checking out the holes One of the holes has water
instead of lava. Dive in and swim through the gate to get SECRET
#3 - variety of medkits and Uzi clips. Make your way back to the
skateboard park then go all the way up the hill. Follow the tunnel
into the next room and start up the slope. Of course 3 boulders
make this harder than it needed to be. Each boulder has its own
section of the slope so stay in the middle. When the first one comes
at ya jump left. When #2 starts rolling jump right then back to the
middle when #3 starts to roll. Stop at the top and wait for a forth
boulder to spit out the door. Enter the passage and go up the slope
and climb up to the next room. Get on the low pillar and jump to the
higher one then jump to the ledge. Do another jump to the left then
another jump to the left then climb into the room on the right. Push
the block (block A) twice and enter the next room then push the
block twice and drop down into the lower room. Pull the block. Then
go back up and go back to the first block you pushed (block A). Push
it forward to reveal a switch. Use it to open a yet unseen door. Turn
left at the switch and enter the alcove straight ahead. Go left and
climb then move forward to the block and enter the passage at the
left. Push the block at the bottom of the stairs once then turn left
and make a mad dash for the door which closes before you get
there! Use the switch next to the door then head back upstairs,
past the gold door and drop through the hole. Run through the doors
and ready your favorite weapon for another shootout. He's packing a
shotgun so keep your distance. I recommend magnums at 30 paces
and dance like crazy! When he's just a red spot on the floor relieve
him of his shotgun and then proceed to climb to the ledge above the
door into the pyramid. Jump from ledge to ledge all the way up this
sucker. At the top jump to the left wall and slide down the pyramid
and find the tunnel. Enter and use the switch to open the door then
exit and slide to the bottom. Go back to the maze and enter the
Gold Door to get a medkit and the keys to the Pyramid. Now go to
the Pyramid and use the Pyarmid key to enter the pyramid and EXIT
this level.
