18.Home Sweet Home

1.Great Wall:It is a rather easy medium sized first level. It has some deadly traps-spikes, collapsing floor tiles, rolling blades e.t.c. In order to find the last secret(Gold Dragon) though you need to fight the only two T-Rexes in the game.

2.Venice:It can be finished very quickly because there is bug which is really a feature, that enables you to avoid a tricky timed sequence. If you choose to complete the level in the proper way, though, you'll have a good time. There are lots of goons with powerful guns, dobermans, many doors, keys and levers to pull. All these make the level complicated. You'll have the chance to drive two boats as well.

3.Bartoli's Hideout:This level is quite big as well. Your aim is to find the appropriate keys and activate a detonator(with the detonator key).The explosion will open the path to the next level. You'll have fun swinging from chandeliers, fighting with baddies and dogs and of course swimming in the canals.

4.Opera House:This level is huge and complicated. The secrets are not very hard to find, except for the Jade Dragon, but you have to find lots of items and place them in the appropriate place, in order to make a lever work. There are many baddies that get in your way and at the end of the level you'll have to face a boss one-it is a powerful goon with big guns that needs lots of bullets to go down. You'll have fun pushing and pulling blocks, exploring the huge area, escaping from moving boxes, using an elevator and setting up for tricky jumps. The challenge is to find a way to get to the other side of a pool.

5.Offshore Rig:This level is medium sized. You start it without your weapons, and after beating a rather easy timed sequence, you'll have to swim trying to avoid large ventilator fans and stay away from the baddies, until you retrieve your pistols. You will find lots of "pass cards" and you'll have to deal with scuba divers

6.Diving Area:This level is quite big and complicated. There are lots of baddies for you to deal with and you'll have to press lots of buttons. The secrets are quite easy to find.

7.40 Fathoms:You start the level underwater and you have to find a way to reach the surface quickly, while two big white sharks are wandering around. You'll have to harpoon them to get rid of them, as soon as you reach the surface ,because there will be no dry land for you for the moment. There are some tough swimming tasks for you to execute ,that require you to get oriented quickly and to have mastered Lara's controls. It is a medium sized level and most of the secrets are located underwater.

8.Wreck of Maria Doria:This level is very big and hard to finish without using any medipacks. There are too many baddies. The secrets are in tricky places. There is a quite hard timed sequence and a button puzzle to be solved. You have to do some block pushing and pulling and collect some circuits and keys.

9.Living Quarters:It is a medium sized level that has some sea creatures for you to deal with and some thugs as well. There is a hard lever and block puzzle which you have to solve. You also have to flood a room, press lots switches(from which some will be timed) and find the theatre key.

10.The Deck:This level is huge and complicated. There is a block pushing puzzle, lots of different keys to collect, difficult jumps to make, a high fall to survive, lots of buttons and in general, everything an adventurer would wish. At the end of the level, you'll retrieve the Seraph, a golden statuette that looks like a small angel. The secrets are not very hard to find, most of them can be seen without doing any searching.

11.Tibetan Foothills:It is a pretty neat medium sized level, where you can use a snowmobile. There is a rather difficult task to complete with it, which requires you to be quick and control the vehicle well. You have to deal with powerful goons armed with Uzis and with some snow leopards. Be careful of the avalanches!

12.Barkhang Monastery:This level is big and complicated. You have to collect five prayer wheels and use the Seraph in order to open the door to the next level. However, each mission for a prayer wheel, is a small level itself. There are lots of traps as well-rolling blades, flames, moving clubs and others. You have to climb up high, push and pull levers and blocks, try to avoid the current in the water and of course ,deal with a large number of baddies, including the monks if you make a mistake and shoot them. The Jade Dragon is extremely hard to find.

13.Catacombs of the Talion:It is a nice medium sized level, in which you have to solve a lever and block puzzle and deal with some unfriendly Yetis in cages. The secrets are easy to find. You have to beat a rather hard timed sequence before you can proceed to the next level.

14.Ice Palace:This level is slightly bigger than the previous one. The Gold Dragon is probably the hardest secret to find in the game. You have to solve a puzzle with bells that open doors when you shoot them and deal with some snow leopards, yetis and fish. Most of the level takes place in the familiar area of the Catacombs of the Talion. You've returned to melt the ice and open the path to the sanctuary of the talion, where you have to beat a strong and powerful Ice Monster .

15.Temple of Xian:It is a very big level, but in my opinion, one of the best in the game, because there aren't many enemies but instead there are lots of puzzles and traps. You can have fun doing well-timed jumps with roll from ladder to ladder, fighting with giant spiders in a dark cave and doing combo jumps from sliding platforms to avoid falling in the lava pits. You'll also have to escape from spike walls and boulders and execute difficult swimming tasks where you have to press lots of levers before you can reach the surface. Finding the Gold Dragon is a tough job. You'll find quite a lot of keys and you'll probably have difficulty locating the places where you need to use them.

16.Floating Islands:This level takes place in a strange environment with weird surroundings. In that area, that seems to be out of this world, a wrong step will cause Lara to fall until she reaches a bottom. I still haven't found something like that and I have a suspicion that there's no bottom! The enemies are hard to beat-they are big flying creatures that hold swords or long spears, that come to life after a specific action of yours. There are some mystic plaques for you to collect. You have to be able to make good running jumps. The secrets are not very easy to find. There are some levers with petrified guards standing in front of them and blocks to push. You can use some zip lines and make tricky combo jumps from ladder to ladder. The level is quite big and the atmosphere is very scary and mysterious.

17.Dragon's Lair:It is a small boss level with no secrets. You deal with some henchmen of Bartoli and some spearmen and then, you face Bartoli, after you've seen him transform into a huge dragon. Click here for tips on how to defeat him. You can retrieve the dagger of Xian here and make a harrowing escape, trying to avoid the collapsing ceiling.

18.Home Sweet Home:It is a small but sweet epilogue to the game. Lara is at home, examinating the dagger closely, ready to go to bed in her night dress, when some members of the Fiamma Nera invade her house. The mysterious cupboard by her bed that refused to open, can now be opened. Armed only with her shotgun and with limited ammo, Lara has to deal with the baddies and with their boss. After he's down, the game is over and Lara goes for a hot shower.
