General Gameplay Tips
- Health Packs: You can carry a total of three health packs. These heal you when your life is in jeopardy.
- Magnetic Grapple: This can be used to traverse certain gaps and pull certain objects. Any object that can be used with the grapple will appear shinny.
- Personal Light Source: This is simply a flashlight. It will brighten up the area for a short time and then shut off. When it shuts off, it will recharge after a short time.
- Binoculars/Remote Analysis Device (RAD): These can magnify anything within Lara's field of vision, but they can also read and analyze objects. The only objects that can be read and analyzed are ones that you can utilize.
- Rewards: There are Gold, Silver, and Bronze rewards scattered around each level. Gather these to unlock extras. If you miss any rewards, you can play the level again to obtain them.
- Gold: Unlocks special game rewards.
- Silver: Unlocks game content.
- Bronze: Unlocks informational content.
- Extras: This is a section on the main menu where you can view all the extras that you've unlocked.
- Time Trials: After you beat each level you unlock a time trial. If you beat the time trials you can unlock more extras.
- Croft Manor: This is Lara's home, which can be accessed through the main menu. Explore the Manor to gather more rewards and unlock additional extras.
Weapons
- Pistols: Lara's signature guns, which are good at close range, but they are weak. The pistols have infinite ammo and if you gather the rewards throughout the game, you can earn upgrades for the pistols.
- SMG: Has a good rate of fire and a medium range, but it has a low accuracy.
- Assault Rifle: This is the best gun. It has good power and great range, which is helped by a mounted scope.
- Shotgun: This has great power at close range, but that's its only perk. There's never a lot of ammo for this gun and it can be easier to just kick an enemy when you're at close range.
- Grenades: These are great for dispatching groups of enemies. They have good power, but you may not use them as much as you think.
- Grenade Launcher: This allows you to hold more grenades and launch them greater distances. It's just as powerful as the grenades, but ammo is hard to find.
- Excalibur: You get this in the seventh mission and it's extremely powerful. Swipe it through the air and it shoots a green energy, which mows down any enemies in your way.
- Soul Reaver: This can only be obtained by completing the game, completing all the time trials and gathering all the rewards. It's basically like Excalibur except that it shoots red energy.
Bolivia - Tiwanaku

- Go back to the broken bridge and jump the gap.
- Make a left and look into the alcove on the right to find the second bronze reward.

- Gold Reward: This is how to claim the gold reward, which needs to be done when all cages are on the marked pads.
- Remove the one in the middle and then run back and remove the one on the left before the door goes all the way up. This causes the door to be stuck in the middle.
- Put the middle cage back on its pad. This stops the door form moving.
