HINTS
AND TIPS
Make sure you complete
the training section
of every game...the controls are slightly different for each one
(as Lara can perform different actions), and very different for
Angel of Darkness (my pet gripe)! You need to get a feel for them
before you start playing the game properly. Especially get to know
the difference between jumps, run and jumps and run, jump and grabs!
When Lara walks past
an essential destination she often looks in the direction she needs
to go. This is a good indication if you find yourself lost! Dont
forget she has a compass that is always available.
There are two
types of levers in the games...underwater levers
and dry-land levers. The dry-land levers are sort of T-shaped and
can't be pulled while Lara is underwater, while the underwater ones
are pole-shaped and can only be pulled whild under water. Keep this
in mind to save confustion whilst playing.
Looking for secrets
can often be frustratng during your Tomb Raiding, but look for parts
of the wall that stand out or are shaded differently. These parts
of the wall can often be pushed or pulled to reveal hidden doorways,passages,or
can be climbed on to reach a lever,switch or doorway. When looking
for secrets always follow all passages even if you feel it will
not assist you in this particlular level. Remember most secrets
are not found on your way and you are nearly always required to
go out of your way. This will often take more time but is worth
the sense of acheivement collecting every secret. And TombRaider
III holds an additional level open to those who manage to collect
every secret in the game!
