Tomb Raider 2 Hints

I'm in the opera house, and I see two switches. What does the right one do?

  • 1 of 12: You'll need to explore the opera house a lot before you can get the switch to do anything.
  • 2 of 12: In particular, you'll need to find a Circuit Board.
  • 3 of 12: Start by figuring out how to operate the elevators.
  • 4 of 12: Once you've done that, you'll want to take the elevator to the bottom of the opera house.
  • 5 of 12: The Circuit Board is even below the bottom floor.
  • 6 of 12: Have you tried looking under the elevator?
  • 7 of 12: Pull the lever to send the elevator back up to the top floor, and then go into the water that's beneath the elevator shaft.
  • 8 of 12: You'll find the Circuit Board in this underwater area.
  • 9 of 12: You can get out by pulling an underwater switch and then going through the gate to a series of platforms.  Some careful jumping will let you climb from platform to platform back to the top.
  • 10 of 12: Use the Circuit Board in an area on the wall that looks like a bunch of wires to turn on the switch.
  • 11 of 12: Then pull the switch, and look for a newly-opened door.
  • 12 of 12: It's on the main stage of the opera house and lets you go backstage.
