Tomb Raider: The Last Revelation Hints
How do I get through the room with spike traps that seem to come from nowhere?
1 of 12: In case you haven't found it yet, that's the room behind another boarded-up doorway in the Egyptian Adventure. It's in the same hallway as the mechanical snake charmer. I'm not talking about the shooting gallery, which is covered in another set of hints.
2 of 12: You've already figured out how to get past those boards in the doorway -- shoot them out with your pistols or other weapon of choice.
3 of 12: Take a very good look around the room before you proceed down the stairs.
4 of 12: In particular, turn to your right.
5 of 12: There's a mirror on the far wall. Maybe that could help.
6 of 12: Do you remember the mirrored room back in the Sacred Lake?
7 of 12: It showed you things that you couldn't otherwise see.
8 of 12: So does this one. In particular, it shows you the location of all of the spike traps.
9 of 12: The spike traps are in the bits of floor that appear lowered in the mirror.
10 of 12: Start by stepping off the staircase (to the right/toward the mirror) as you're first entering the room. The path becomes unsafe any farther down.
11 of 12: Then, just keep looking in the mirror and walk where there aren't any traps. You may find it easiest to continue facing toward the mirror and step sideways or backwards, so you can continue to watch the mirror.
12 of 12: At the "end" of the room, you'll need to jump across a space with a trap to get to the crossbow that's sitting just in front of the mirror. Take the crossbow and then retrace your steps.
