![]() ![]() I like how its not just a level where you pull levers and try to find the next open door. Exploring the entire level and figuring out what to do next is Classic TR for me. On the other hand, I do like the unique challenge it imposes. I will admit that I used a walkthrough a lot of times for this level because it requires you to explore every bit of the level. Same with finding the Ornate Star, since its located behind a curtain that looks like part of the background. For all I know, it looks like a gag item to me. For example, how am I suppose to know where to put the Old Penny? The ticket booths all look like a part of the background. Primarily, figuring out what to do next is the biggest trouble. There is just a lot of unclear objectives to do in this level. On one hand, I find this to be one of the most frustrating levels in the series. The problem is that I actually love the level in retrospect. I feel deeply downbeat by having to read a walkthrough to manage to get through this level. Double arrgh.Īt work today I found myself revisiting the level in my mind. To make matters worse I missed one secret by not using the ornate star in the room with the campfire. I solved the Masonic room switch puzzle fairly easily, found the old penny to get the ticket, found the ornate star but then wondered around for 3 hours having missed the first Solomon's key in the drill room. That was all lost this weekend playing the Aldwych level. ![]() I have always preferred to wonder around, backtracking and trying different combinations until I finally found the right way forward. Never in my life have I consulted walkthroughs before. To put it short, I feel like a first class idiot. Now I am playing the London Section and just this weekend I completed Aldwych. Now I have arrived at Tomb Raider 3 and after finishing the India section (ok) I chose South Pacific (better)and then Nevada (up to now my favourite). I was amazed at how much I could remember but also how I had forgotten. Shortly before Christmas I made the decision to replay all classics on the PC in sequence (including the bonus levels). I think it had something to do with the jungle setting in the first levels which I didn't like. I can't exactly remember why I didn't play it when it came out. I loved the original, relished Tomb Raider 2, laboured my way through Tomb Raider 4 and managed to keep my motivation going to get through Tomb Raider 5.Īs can be seen the only one missing was Tomb Raider 3. I consider myself to be a seasoned tomb raider. Ok, first of all hello from a newbie (but long time lurker) to this wonderful forum. ![]()
