Escape with the Iris

• Secret #1 out of 3
• Secret #2 out of 3
• Secret #3 out of 3

1. Start / left, to large hall / Zip talking: don't enter the X-Ray hallway with your shotgun! / park the HK in the sink [action nearby] / MOVIE / find a trapdoor in the ceiling ["broken" square] / standing jump action to open it / blue door closed: Lara will return this way to end the level.

2. Enter X-Ray hallway / fatal bomb in the first (right) box (read the panel at the entrance...) / get SMP in second box / T-junction: laser at rigth (use viewer) / get ammo just before the (invisible) laser / roll, go to monitor: action shows beginning of next level with SES on stairs behind the level exit door (what you cannot know now) / continue straight over T-junction to office #1 with chloro bottle / MOVIE showing BB behind corner / cloth in next office #2 / combine and use on BB: walk! / SMP on corner office #3 / nothing, chloro bottle and card code 8526 in offices #4, #5, #6 / back to T-junction to use the code entering WC / LMP in "women" section / trapdoor in the ceiling ["broken" square] in "men" section / climb up.

3. Crawlspace / deep pit: drop, grab the crevice, drop and land without damnage (about) / crowl right / to exit the crawlspace: while inside, turn back to align to center before pan camera muddles you / climb mode / backflip roll action to get the chain / climb down to small plate / to Secret #1 out of 3: face to the alcove with the rose inside: walk back to the far edge of the "small plate", away from the chain / SJA to land to alcove / SJ from alcove edge to get back the "small plate" / climb up the chain until you are over next metal plate (you'll see it) / backflip (roll) action to land / save the game.

4. RJA to get VB (not trivial: use a retarded action) / hold action to rotate and jump to alcove / SJA to elevator roof / open trapdoor in elevator #1 / drop in (irreversible step) / button doesn't work / automatic door / exit by walking / ignore BB [chloro doesn't work] / walk left and press button to enter elevator #2.

5. Save the game / press button to go up / MOVIE / quickly rotate 90 deg (as soon as the program allows you) and run to button to close doors [2 BB + 1 SES shooting]: if well done this will cost no more than 10-20% of health / MOVIE of falling elevator / (as soon as the program allows you) run to button again and press to brake / / MOVIE: brakes in action / exit the elevator by the trapdoor on the ceiling / save the game.

6. Climb the elevator roof / SJ from 3 walking steps back to grab VB / jump action to plate / climb high wall / backflip roll at 1 square below a grate visible at your left / RJA to another VB / jump and land to quite large plate / standing jump to tunnel / save the game / slide into descending tunnel (coming from ?) / jump action to VB exactly at turning left (while sliding) / jump to next VB [caution: timed fire] / jump to next plate [caution: fire: hopback twice action to grab the border avoiding fire / grate nearby is safe / walk on the plate and jump to alcove with chloro [useless]/ you're in the elevator pit again / walk on the HB to other side / slide into the U-shaped descending tunnel / save the game.

7. Exit the crawlspace backward, so that Lara can start running without rolling / BB / run-jump to the acquarium with a S-path to avoid bullets / to get Secret #2 out of 3, the guard has to shoot the glass of the acquarium / get the rose, backflip, sideflip, sprint to safe place.

8. Large room / don't use the ramp now / standing jump on the "left" side (opposite to WizFizCola) action to grab, shimmy right / climb up / caution: gun in action! / to get the left (white) ladder, jump the "#" marks where the gun is aimed / exit ladder / jump the hole to use the shortest path to the laser shut-off switch: here the gun shoots at the window section / on the way the gun may brake a wall hiding Secret #3 out of 3 (otherwise sideflip right from the switch) / to exit, climb down the same way and sprint on the ramp jumping the obstacle (where the laser was).

9. Sprint and jump the laser floor / BB / on the ledge in the room with laser floor, roll and roll until glass brakes, then press the exit button under the guard fire / run over the open door and sprint as much as you can to enter deeply in the room / MOVIE / walk to both switches / run left to Teleporter Room / save the game.

10. Ceiling trapdoor leading to another X-Ray room / active X-Ray (button) to learn in which box the CD is / use CD on the PC n the Teleporter Room / use the Iris at the "X" / "Star Treck" or "Stargate" apply and Lara is in a new reddish room / hole / drop in / hallway / MOVIE / continue / crawlspace / wait / the guard leaves / get a totally useless chloro bottle / compose the exit code 1672 / wait near the door, 1 square and half away, then (just a moment before the guard crosses the automatic door) sideflip and spint into the X-Ray Control room. If you are perfect, the guard (who reacts with some delay: good AI) pass the door when Lara is on the other side, so that the door will close behind you, and you can do what you want from now on. If you are less perfect, just sprint in, press the button and sprint to the final red crawlspace, giving up 1 LMP.

11. Get the HK / sometimes it's possible to climb back into the X-Ray Control room and sometimes not (invisible wall) / get the HK / hoot the extinguisher on the door near the monitor / end level.
