Tomb Raider 2 Hints

I'm past the spikes, but I need a key to get in the opera house. Where is it?

  • 1 of 12: It's hidden behind a door.
  • 2 of 12: Okay -- it's more like a trap door.
  • 3 of 12: Look for a switch, and see if you can open anything around here.
  • 4 of 12: Start your search by jumping in the water.
  • 5 of 12: And look for a ladder.
  • 6 of 12: The switch is hidden in the platforms around the ladder.
  • 7 of 12: It's on the second-highest platform in this section.
  • 8 of 12: You can't reach it by the ladder.
  • 9 of 12: Go to the third-highest platform, turn away from the ladder, jump up, and grab.  You should be able to get a hold of the platform and climb up.
  • 10 of 12: Once you pull the switch, a trap door will open across the water from the swinging box.
  • 11 of 12: Run and jump from the area near the swinging box onto where the trap door used to be.  You'll find the key, which you can claim after fighting a couple of guards in the area.
  • 12 of 12: It may help to start shooting on your way into this area -- before you land -- to help you get a bit of a leg up on the guards.
