Tomb Raider: The Last Revelation Hints
Why did my wind-up object break?
1 of 6: You can use the Mechanical Scarab only three times. Be careful to use it only when it's needed if you want to get the "optimal" track through this level -- although it is possible to complete the level no matter when/where you use it.
2 of 6: You will need to use it once to get past the spike traps very near the start of the level.
3 of 6: From there, you'll come to the center of a hallway that turns left (north) or right (south) to face a set of spike traps in either direction. The left traps are just past a small pool of water, and the right traps are past a set of double doors that you can't open for now.
4 of 6: You only need to use your Scarab on one of these two sets of traps, as they both eventually lead to the same place.
5 of 6: I personally preferred going to the right, but if you go to the left, look up as soon as you've gone past the traps and taken a slight step up.
6 of 6: There will be an opening you can grab and climb through. Although you can also use your Scarab a third time on the traps a little farther down the hall, you'd be wasting your last use, since the opening eventually takes you to the same place without going past any traps.
