Tomb Raider 2 Hints
How do I get out of the room with a row of burners, near the level's entrance?
1 of 15: There's a switch high on one of the walls in the burner room that would open the doors. Too bad you can't reach it.
2 of 15: Maybe you could, under the right conditions.
3 of 15: Take a look at those giant pistons in the room just before the one with the burners.
4 of 15: Those are the key to reaching the switch.
5 of 15: If you could climb on top of them, then you might be able to go through some of the paths at the top of the room to see what you can find.
6 of 15: First, you'll need to get past the row of burners.
7 of 15: Some careful climbing might let you do that.
8 of 15: Go to the top of the ramp near the burners and do a running jump to grab the ledge above the burners. You can then slide to the right until you're over the burners. (You will also find a switch to disable the burners just past them.)
9 of 15: Keep climbing up until you find another switch. Flip it to move all of the pistons, so that the ones that were in the low position are now in the high position, and vice versa. Also, take a note of the opening in the ceiling in this room, although you won't be able to jump up through it yet.
10 of 15: Now go back into the piston room and notice that you can jump onto one of the pistons from the ramp over the machinery at one end of the room. From there, you can jump from piston to piston to reach a ledge at the other end of the room.
11 of 15: Go through the path past the ledge until you find a movable box. Push it as far as it will go. And notice the hole in the floor.
12 of 15: This leads you back to the room with the switch that will flip the pistons. Go down as soon as you have a way of getting back.
13 of 15: Look at the movable box that's on one side of the hole. Push it out of the way. You can now drop back into the room with the piston switch and climb back up through the hole, on the side where the box you just moved used to be.
14 of 15: Now, go back to the pistons and jump to the other end of the room. You can get to a switch on that side of the room -- when you flip the switch, you will flood the room with the burners.
15 of 15: Then, swim into that room and pull the formerly out-of-reach lever. It will open the door and let you out of the room.
