Level 11: Obelisk of Khamoon

Room with four movebale blocks - Go through the doors and turn right. Climb the left hand walkway and drop into the passage. At the end, go to the right to reach a room with four movable blocks (you will come back for the keyhole on the left). To proceed, you have to pull only the leftmost block, but if you want all the kills and pick-ups, you also have to pull the rest there.

Pull the rightmost twice. A black panther attacks when you enter, so turn with the passage to your back and hop into it. Quickly run and jump on the block. Kill the panther from here, then enter the passage and pick up the Small Medi Pack. Again, pull the second twice. A panther attacks when you step on the third square of the passage, so hop back to trigger it, then run and jump onto the block to kill it.

The third movable does not hide a panther exactly behind it, so push it to the side. Enter the passage and proceed carefully. The hole at the end drops you to a slide and a panther will attack you. First hang from the edge to alert it and pull up. If you are able, kill it from above, although it will take you some time because the panther runs around. Alternatively, walk up to the front left corner of the edge and turn slightly right. When you are not able to see the panther, drop onto the slide and as soon as you land, jump while pressing the left direction key (as shown here). You will land on the ground, some yards away from the slide. Quickly climb up the blocks at the far left and kill the panther from there.

Here you will find a Small Medi Pack. The switch on the ground opens the door at the top, so that you can leave. Once you use it, climb up the blocks and take a running jump to the doorway. Jump to the opposite side and pick up the Magnum Clips from behind the door. Then drop through the opening in the floor and return to the room with the movable blocks.

Now pull the leftmost block and enter the passage. Drop into the water and swim through the tunnel. When you reach the next room, surface and climb out of the water, using one of the various low ledges. (The PS players will find a Save Crystal here.) Kill the crocodile and jump into the water. On an underwater ledge in the northeast corner, you will find the Saphire Key. You will also find some Magnum Clips in the northwest corner and a Small Medi Pack in one of the openings close to the east wall. Swim back and through the tunnel you came from (north) to return back to the room with the movable blocks.

Exit the room with the movable blocks and use the Key you just got to open the nearby door and the gold door in the room with the four movable blocks. It does not matter which one you follow, since both lead to the same place. The gold door will lead to a room with furniture and a mummy will attack from there. If you follow the door next to the keyhole, you will have the chance to avoid the mummy later. The PS players may want to go to the gold door now and retrieve a Save Crystal at the entrance if they need it. To do that, they will have to use one of the blocks and push it beneath the opening.

[Note - If you want to get rid of the mummy now, here is a strategy: Go up the steps around to the left, but before reaching the second corner, roll and run back to drop onto the block you came from. The mummy is anxious, so it will not stay close to you. From the back of the block (assuming you have pushed it exactly beneath the opening), take a standing jump to the opening. Draw weapons, turn left to face the wall, side-step to the right and side-flip to the right. This way, you land in front of the steps. Shoot a couple of times and side-flip to the left twice to exit. Repeat the same until you explode the mummy.]

Room with pool, Obelisk and broken down bridges - Go through the door next to the keyhole. Take a running jump to the platform at the bottom of the Obelisk and pick up the Shotgun Shells. Jump into the water and retrieve some Magnum Clips. Swim to the northwest corner of the pool and climb out of the water using the ledge by the right of the bluish openings.

Room with ledges - Slide down the ramp. Before dropping into the next room, kill the two black panthers from here. Then drop down and go up the steps on the right hand side. From the topmost step, face north and jump up to grab the block. Pull up, turn around and take a running jump to the opposite block. Turn around and take a running jump to grab the two-square ledge. Pull up and turn left. Take a running jump to the single ledge above the pillar, then jump to the ledge with the Large Medi Pack. Pick it up.

If you want all the kills, hang from the opening next to where you got the Medi Pack and pull up. This will alert two mummies in the room below. You can kill them from here if you want, but the mummies will start running around, making it more difficult. So, face south and drop onto the ledge on the left (it is the ledge above the entrance - as shown in this screenshot). Then jump to the opening of the mummy room and explode both of them. There is nothing more interesting in this room, so drop back onto the ground and reach the two-square ledge.

This time do not jump to the single ledge above the pillar. Instead, jump up to grab the upper ledge and pull up. Turn around and take a running jump to the opposite L shaped ledge with the block in the corner. (The PS players will find a Save Crystal here.) Climb on the block, turn around and climb onto the platform. Take a running jump to the next one and another running jump to grab the top of the steps beyond. Pull up and go around to the left. Climb on the ledge and draw weapons. A mummy will come from the stairs on the right, so start shooting immediately. If it approaches, drop back down and climb on the ledge again.

Once you are done, use the switch opposite the three pillars to lower one bridge that gives you access to one of the artifacts (Ankh). Drop onto the ledge next to the switch and pick up the Small Medi Pack and the two sets of Magnum Clips (or a pair of Magnums instead of one of the sets if you do not have them).

Room with slide that becomes steps - Climb back up and go up the steps where the mummy came from. You cannot open the door now, so go to the other side where you will find an opening in the floor. Hang from the edge and drop onto the slide. When you reach the ground, turn right, making a U turn in order to climb in one of the three openings in the wall. Draw weapons and kill the panther that comes from one of the doorways on the other side. The rightmost opening includes a switch that turns the slide into steps. The small room the panther came from includes some Magnum Clips.

Start climbing up the steps. When you reach the fourth one, turn left and jump to the ledge to get some Shotgun Shells. Jump back to the steps and climb up a couple of them more. Drop onto the bluish platform on the left (the PS players will find a Save Crystal here) and notice the slide here. You will return a bit later. Exit through the opening and go up the steps on the right hand side. Pick up the Large Medi Pack and use the switch at the top to turn the slide you saw before into steps.

(Note - You can go and get two of the artifacts now, but let's lower one more bridge and take them all together.)

Room with Sarcophagus and mummies - Drop onto the ledge beneath the switch you just used and go through the opening. Follow the steps on the left, but before grabbing the ledge at the top (with the hanging block above), drop onto the blocks on the right until you reach the last one (as shown in this screenshot). Hang from its edge, drop onto the ground and quickly climb back up. Two mummies have awakened, so kill them from safety. (It is not necessary to kill them, since you can totally avoid them, but if you want all the kills, this is a safe spot.) Climb up the blocks to the top and now grab the ledge and shimmy beneath the hanging block. When you are able, pull up.

1st Secret - Jump up to grab the ledge above and pull up. Enter the room and pick up the Large Medi Pack and Magnum Clips.

Exit from the other side and take a running jump to the square ledge. Then jump to the opposite long ledge. Go to the end and jump to the second long ledge. Pick up the Shotgun Shells and jump back to the first long ledge. Do not jump to the square ledge. Instead, drop to the one between the square and the long ledges. Then drop onto the lower one (see here to get oriented). Turn to face south, drop backwards to grab the edge and shimmy across the crevice. Drop down at the end, turn right and again drop backwards to grab the edge and shimmy across. At the end, drop to the square ledge in the corner. Turn around and take a running jump to grab the opposite block. Pull up and exit to the fenced balcony. Use the switch to lower one more bridge. (The PS players will find a Save Crystal here.)

Return back. If you have killed the mummies, drop onto the ground and climb up the blocks on the west side. If you did not kill them and do not wish to bother with them, jump back to the square ledge in the corner and use the crevices again to return back up. Then exit to the room with the pool and the Obelisk.

Back to the Obelisk - As you exit, straight ahead is the Scarab. Pick it up and the camera will show you a closed door in the pool below. Turn around and go around to the right. Climb on the block where you used the switch that turned the second slide into steps and continue down the steps. Pass the opening on the left and jump to the fenced ledge. Go around it and pick up the Ankh. Again, the camera shows the same underwater closed door.

The bridge on the east side is raised, but you can take a running jump there. To do that, stand against the pillar and side-step to the very left (as shown in this screenshot). Hop back once and take one step back. Turn left to face the bridge (as shown here) and take a running jump with no Action to land on it. (If you cannot do that, you will have another chance later. In that case, skip to the next paragraph.) Enter the room with the furniture. There is a still mummy here, but it does not awaken now. It will if you go down the steps in the southwest corner. Go to the other window and use the switch to lower the bridge next to the ledge you just jumped onto. Exit and pick up the Eye of Horus. Again, the camera will show the underwater door.

Jump back to the bridge where you got the Ankh, go around the fenced ledge and jump to the doorway. (Make sure you have used the switch that turns the slide into steps.) Go through the doorway and climb up the steps. When you reach the top, turn right and take a running jump to grab the crevice. Shimmy to the right and drop to the gold platform. Go around and drop onto the ledge below (notice the slide here). Enter the room and use the switch to turn the slide (just outside) into steps. Climb up them and when you reach the top, turn around and pull into the room above. Draw weapons and start shooting at the mummy on the right. If it approaches, drop back down and climb back up again.

Go to the opening on the west side. Behind the architecture you will find a Small Medi Pack (and a Save Crystal for the PS players). Use the nearby switch to lower the last bridge. The other switch opens the door. Go through it.

2nd Secret - Turn right. Approach the opening that leads to the room with the slides, but do not drop through it. Jump over it and safely drop onto the greenish ledge below (next to the switch that lowered the Ankh bridge). Walk on the ledge with the three pillars (or grab it and traverse). You need to take a running jump from the extended block to the top of the Obelisk (as shown here). Be careful, because once you line Lara up with the pillar and hop back, the camera shifts behind the pillar. But do not worry. A running jump with no Action is enough. Once you land, pick up the Small Medi Pack and Uzi Clips.

3rd Secret - Turn to face north and notice the architecture on the left below (see here). Take a running jump there (Lara will lose some health) and pick up the Large Medi Pack and two sets of Uzi Clips.

(Note - If you did not take the Eye of Horus before, you can get it now. From the ledge with the 3rd Secret, turn to face west and take a standing jump with Action to the window below. See this screenshot to get oriented. Lara will land inside and you can use the switch. The mummy will not awaken unless you go down the steps in the southwest corner. Then you can get the Eye by following the other window of the room.)

Drop to the ledge close to where you got the Scarab and go around to pick up the Seal of Anubis. On getting the fourth artifact, the underwater door opens.

Once the underwater door is open - Jump into the water and swim through the door. Swim down the tunnel, then forwards. This tunnel contains four alcoves - two on each side. Three of them have goodies: Magnum Clips, Shotgun Shells and Small Medi Pack. If you have at least half of your breath, you can continue, otherwise return to get some air. Swim through the rest of the tunnel to reach a pool. At the bottom, you will find a Small Medi Pack and some Shotgun and Magnum Clips.

To deal with the mummy you need to find a safe spot. There are two of them: a ledge on the south wall and an opening in the southeast corner. The mummy follows you wherever you go in the pool, so lure it away from the safe spots (north side). When it comes close to you, quickly swim to the south, climb out of the water and climb on either ledge. Kill it from above and pick up the two sets of Magnum Clips from the ledge on the south side. (The PS players will also find a Save Crystal here.)

Climb to the doorway and follow the passage to the end. Draw weapons and kill the mummy from here. Once it is dead, drop down and go to the left, where you will find a Large Medi Pack. Then climb up the blocks on the right hand side to return back to the Sphinx. Go to the front side of it and enter the small room behind the movable block to get some Shotgun Shells. Now go to the Obelisk and place the four artifacts in the receptacles to open the exit door, which is on the other side of the Sphinx. Go through it and down the steps to end the level.
