Level 12
Escape With The Iris
Follow the corridor and into a circular room. Zip will start talking, and hell tell you to take your weapons, and put it into the tray. You cant go into the next room with your weapons since there are sensors that detect if you have a weapon. If you have it, then youll be killed. A cutscene will show Lara taking her weapons and putting them in the tray. After that, walk to the right, and look up. Youll see the tiles on the ceiling, and one of them is broken. Jump up, and grab it to open the trapdoor. You cant go in it, but just open it. Run into the corridor, and you can see Laras skeleton. There are also two boxes here. Run past the first one since its a bomb, and open the second one to get the Small Medipack. Run across into a room with some sofas, and run past them. Youll enter a long corridor with some doors. Go to the right, but not too far. Just pick up the HK ammo, and turn back around. If you went any farther than that, lasers would have fried you. The HK ammo is hard to see, but its there. Its right past the yellow door a bit. Turn around, and run forward. Walk up to the monitor, and press action. Then, run into the corridor on the left. Run forward, and a door will automatically open in front of you. Go inside, and search the drawers on the left and right. Youll get a bottle of Chloroform. Leave, and go right. A cutscene will show a guard at the end. Go into the room on the right, and search the cabinet to get the Cloth. Run out and to the right. walk slowly down the corridor, and combine the Chloroform and the Cloth to get the Chloroform Soaked Cloth. Theres another door to your right, but ignore it for now. Walk slowly behind the guard, and press action. Smother him with the Chloroform Soaked Cloth. Now, turn around, and enter the last room to get the Small Medipack.
Leave this room, and continue your way down the new hall. Dont go through the first door that opens on your left. Theres nothing in there. Instead, run forward, and go into the second room that opens. Search the cabinet to get the Chloroform bottle. Go farther down the corridor, and go into the next room that opens. Get the Restroom Access Card from the drawer. The last door at the end doesnt open. So, turn around, and run back down the corridor. Take a right into the previous corridor, and go all the way down to the end. Go to the keypad next to the door, and enter the numbers, E526.Enbsp; You know that these are the numbers since you can see them on the card. Go inside, and there is the womens bathroom to your left and the mens in front. If you're playing any of the PSX versions, theres nothing in the womens bathroom. However, in the PC version, there is a Large Medipack in the middle stall. Kick in the door, and get it. If you're playing any of the PSX versions, you can just kick down the doors for fun. In the mens bathroom, kick the door of the first stall, and go inside. Jump up, and grab the broken ceiling tile. Lara will open it, and now, you can crawl inside. Crawl forward, and be careful at the end. Theres a big fall. Hop backwards, and grab the ledge. Release the action button for one second, and grab it again. Youll grab onto a lower ledge. Then, let go, and Lara will fall to the ground. Youll lose some energy but not much.
Turn to your left, and crawl in. Crawl backwards, and grab onto the climbable wall. Youre in the elevator shaft. Climb all the way down, and swing all the way to the right. Drop down, and youll land on a ledge. Run in, and grab the Secret. Turn around, run, jump, and grab the chain. Lara will climb up it as though its a rope. Once youre just below the top, press jump, and Lara will backflip onto the ledge. Now, turn to Laras right, and look. Youll see a parallel bar. Do a running jump and grab to the parallel bar. Swing, and then jump off. Youll land safely on the other side. This is hard because the bar is high up, so the second you jump, you have to press action quickly to grab. Now, that youre on the other side, turn around, and perform a diagonal standing jump to the ledge on the right. Youre on top of the elevator now. In front of you is a trapdoor. Open it by standing on the gray tile next to it, and press action. Drop inside. Run to the elevator keypad, and press it. Once out here, walk very slowly out. Theres a guard, and you dont have to kill him. Just walk silently left, and go to the next elevator. Press the button, and a cutscene will take place. The elevator door opens to a lot of guards. Run back to the keypad, and press action to leave. Theyll start shooting at you. There are medipacks at the end of this hallway, but its very hard to get across with all the bad guys. Press the action button at the keypad, and another cutscene shows. The elevator is plummeting. You have about one second to run to it and press it before it crashes. If you reach it in time, the elevator will stop, and Lara will be on the floor. However, shes all right. If you dont get it in time, she goes up in flames and dies.
Now, run to forward and left. Climb up the ladder and out. Turn around, and look at the parallel bar ahead. Do a standing jump, and grab the pole. Flip over to the other side, but press action since youll grab onto the ledge. Climb up. Now, run to the climbable wall to your right. Climb up, and when you get up to the metal grating on the left, flip backwards. Now, turn around, and run to the wall. Turn left, and look at the parallel bar. Perform a running jump to it, and flip over to the other side. Now, go to the left, and go up to the wall. The wall is gray here, and its to the left of the white tiles. Jump up, and grab the ledge. Go into the crawl space. Its hard to see. Crawl through. Stop when you cant crawl anymore. Theres a ramp in front of you. Keep sliding down, and soon, youll slide down another ramp. Jump and grab the parallel bar when youre on top of the black metal grating. If you jump at the bottom, you wont make it. Swing around, and watch the flames. Press jump to grab onto the next bar when the flames go out. Youll grab onto another bar. You can see that there are flames coming out of the vent ahead of you. Wait until they go out, and jump. The second you land, jump back until you fall off the ledge. Immediately, press action to grab on. Then, shimmy right to avoid the flames. Climb up. Now, walk slowly to the left, and keep as far away from the flames as possible. You can see a space in front of you. Perform a diagonal standing jump and grab there. Now, it looks like a dead end. However, walk up to the center of the platform youre standing on, and press action. Youll begin to walk the tightrope. Walk across, and press in the opposite direction if you unbalance. If you're playing the PC version, you can collect a chloroform bottle at the end. However, if you're playing any PSX version, there won't be one. Run forward, and youll slide down a lot of ramps.
Now, theres a guard outside, and he will definitely notice you. Crawl out, and run with the dash button to the right. He will shoot you and follow you. Run all the way to the back, and in front of you, youll see a green aquarium. Stand in front of it, and wait for the guard to shoot it. Then, run inside, and duck into the hole. Run to the back of the aquarium, and collect the Secret. Then, turn around, and run out of the aquarium. Go right or left, and run up. Soon, youll come to a ramp in the center. Run up it. Once youre up here, the camera will show that a sniper is shooting you. Run around, so he wont get you. Run to the right and all the way around to the door on the opposite side. Look to the left of the door, and youll see some metal grating. Jump up, and climb up. It can be used as a ladder. Climb up, and when you see a brown platform to your right, shimmy to the right, and drop down onto the platform. Keep running to the right, and occasionally, the camera will show the sniper shooting at you. Just keep running forward, and soon, youll come to a button. Push it. To the right of the button is a fire extinguisher. Stand by it, and the sniper will shoot you. Just stand there, and let him shoot you. Soon, hell shoot the fire extinguisher, and the wall will blow up. Run inside, and collect the Secret. Now, turn around, and run out. Immediately run left. Soon, youll come back to the ladder. Climb down, and run back to the door where the lasers used to be. Run forward, and soon, a circular room will be in front of you. An aquarium is at the other side. Dont go across the floor yet since there are lasers. A guard will come up behind you and shoot you. Endure his shots for now. Perform a running jump to the aquarium, and stand there. The guard will shoot the aquarium, and the water will flow out. The water will destroy the lasers, and now you can run to the right, and press the switch. The door will open, so run through it. Run in, and turn left.
A cutscene will take place where Zip contacts Lara. Two guards are trying to get into the room. When the cutscene is over, walk very slowly to the switches on both sides of the entrance. Press both of them. If you ran, then the machine guns would have been triggered. Walk through the door, and run inside. Go into the gray door on the right. Youre in a large blue room. Run into the only open door. Its to the left. There are lots of boxes here. All of them are bombs, except one of them. Look above you at the ceiling. Jump, grab, and pull down the ceiling tile thats broken. Jump, and climb inside the air vent. Crawl through, and somersault out. Walk up to the wall ahead, and press the button. This activates the x-rays. Now, you can see which box is not the bomb. You can tell which one doesnt have the bomb if the box doesnt have any of those big wires in them. The box that doesnt have it looks like its empty. Remember which one doesnt have the bomb, and crawl back through the vent. Somersault out to the other side, and press action at that box. You now have the Teleporter Disc. Now, leave this room, and go back to where the computer was. Press action here. The ground shakes, and now, you must go back to the center of the room. Theres an X on the floor. Walk up to the slot, and press action. Use the Iris Artifact here.
There is electricity, and now, you have teleported. The ground is red. Now, look for the hole in the floor. It is in the corner of the room. Drop down, and youre in an underground tunnel. Run forward, and climb out of the hole. Zip is contacting you. He tells you that a guard is typing in a code in a keypad. Now, look to your left through the metal grating, and watch the guard on patrol. You must use your Headset to zoom in and see what the code is. Its 1672. Now, run forward, and drop down into the lower corridor below. There is a crawl space. Crouch, and wait inside. Wait for the guard to leave the room, and go left. Then, walk up to the keypad, and punch in the code. Go in. If he notices you, just quickly run to the keypad, punch in the code, and run inside. He wont follow you. The stealth approach is just a way so that you won't lose any energy, but if he notices you, it won't matter much. Run to the end of the corridor, and turn right. Jump up, and climb in. Run forward, and drop down. Get the Large Medipack. Then, crawl back onto the block, and jump down. Now, go to the center of the room, and turn around. Look down the ramp, and look at the left pillar. There should be a gray button. Push it. Its hard to see, but its there. Then, turn right, and crawl through the red crawl space. Turn to the right, and climb up the ladder. Somersault out the other end. Now, run back to the tray where you left your HK Gun, and pick it up. Run down the corridor where the x-rays used to be, and run through the room with the sofas. Run across, and make a left. Youll see the gray door with the fire extinguisher on the right. Aim using the LaserSight at the fire extinguisher, and shoot it. It will explode, and a doorway will be formed. Run through. Its the end of the level. |
